Solid Sound but Weak PhysicallyNovember 22, 2008 I bought this because of the great sound. My only issues with it are physical in nature. First of all, you have to have the remote to control it which is a pain. If they want to make the remote mandatory then there should be a slot to store it. Mobility is an issue because you have to remember to bring two items with you, three if you count the power supply. Secondly, the hidden tray that docks the ipod is flimsy and can probably be easily broken off if not careful.
But as far as sound goes you can't beat it and if sound is your main criteria then this is definitely a unit you should get.
Not just for Ipod brand MP3 playersNovember 20, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Fantastic sound, especially the bass. Blew away all the others that I listened to in the store by far. Price is high, so shop around. You also need to consider what you're going to put it in if you plan to schlep it around. I've tried several zip-up canvas bags I had around the house, but they don;t cut it. Guess I'm going to have to spring for the Bose carrying case. I don't have an IPOD, so I use it with my other-brand MP3 player. Just needed a $3 cord from Ace hardware. Used the same cord to use as external speaker for my laptop.No problem. Turned my laptop into the biggest MP3 player ever. No worries about filling up my portable MP3.
Great Acoustic!November 19, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I found the acoutics similiar to a stereo of much larger size, and quality. The SoundDock is very portable, and easy to hook up to an ipod. In addition to ipod use, a connector cable can be used to listen to any 1/4 inch jack input device such as a portable CD player or tape recorder. I can highly recommend this device to the music fans.
Dropped DeadNovember 17, 2008 After 10 months of fabulous sound, ours just stopped working one day. Very disappointing. We got it as a gift, so have no idea where to return it or how to get it fixed.
Bose SoundDock for iPodNovember 11, 2008 Does what it says--makes your iPod part of a speaker-based sound system. Really cool.

The 5.1 channel home-theater-in-a-box system features five tiny speakers - each about the size of a golf ball. The system, matched with a compact, single disc DVD/CD player/receiver, includes a unique subwoofer that helps the tiny speakers create sounds typically reserved for full size speakers.
While the system features small speakers, it packs all the power of conventional home theater-in-a-box systems with 450 watts of total system power (satellite speakers 50W x 5, plus 2-way subwoofer 100W x 2). The system is specially tuned to deliver a natural sound field that takes the focus off the subwoofer while supplementing mid range and lower frequencies.
