Digital camera reviews of GPX iLive ISPK2806 iPod Speakers with Remote Control & Dock for iPod, Mini, Shuffle, and Nano (1G)
Digital camera Review: A good item at a good price.,
Summary: 5 Stars
I am very happy with this iPod speaker. It is setting on my home desk where I listen as I pay bills, balance my check book, and doing the laundry. I am very happy with the sound.Digital camera Review: AWFUL LONGEVITY
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this on Black Friday for $10, and thought it was a great deal. I used it probably 10 times over the span of 4 months, and it was broken. It wouldn't let me turn down the volume, and it was way too loud for practical use at that point. Then, a few days later, it just plays my music so fuzzy you can barely make out what's playing. The warranty is 90 days, and it lasts just long enough to screw you over. I feel sorry for people who bought it at face value. It pissed me off and I only spent 10 bucks. Avoid buying this low quality item.Digital camera Review: At least the charger works
Summary: 2 Stars
Only buy this item if you desperately want to listen to your ipod out loud. The remote control I received did not work right out of the box. It will control the power and volume of the unit but will not pause, skip, or repeat tracks on the ipod. Sound quality is barely passable. No bass and no highs, only a muddy sounding midrange. The only thing I could compare it to are the small, handheld transistor radios that were popular in the seventies. The charger dock works fine but will not charge my ipod with a protective rubber sleeve on it. It also has a cool blue light that shines behind your ipod when the unit's power is on. It's a shame about the sound quality and the faulty remote because the unit itself is nice and heavy and feels very solid. If you have any other alternatives, I would advise to skip this one.Digital camera Review: Audiophiles beware!
Summary: 3 Stars
Looking for a relatively cheap ipod speaker dock, I chose this one since it looked fairly attractive and simple. The quality of the main dock is not bad at all. Fit and finish is on par with the more expensive docks, however, the remote is absolute garbage.
By no means is this a terrible dock physically, but the sound quality has left a lot to be desired in my opinion. The dock sounds kind of like low quality computer speakers at best. Very hollow and flat sounding with little fidelity. this was a major disappointment to me. Because of that, I usually only listen to podcasts on it. (Which is fine since I love my podcasts also.)
I would say buy it if you plan on sticking it in the garage, or other work area, but don't use it as your main external speaker source for the ipod if it's going into the living room, or somewhere other people might hear it.
Digital camera Review: Awful product
Summary: 1 Stars
Bought this 3 days ago...Plugged the product in and realised that this one has no concept of volume control. Either it is very very high, or when you try and reduce volume, the audio totally shuts off!!
I will not recommend this product or this company to anyone
