Digital camera Review: A Let Down from Klipsch
Summary: 2 Stars
I own one of these and it's Ok I guess, but nothing special. Those who think it sounds better than the Bose probably have tin ears. Very little bass but lots of treble. This unit replaced an iGroove HG and I'm still kicking myself for getting rid of the HG. It had so much better sound, it was surprising these were both made by the same company. And then, when Apple, in their infinite wisdom decided to screw everybody by going to a 5 volt system, Klipsch wouldn't even offer a fix for this unit to also charge the new iPods and iPhones. So, I've been looking for older iPods because I don't feel like shelling out another [...] for another one of these. I listened to the newer ones and they sound as tinny as this one. It's a good thing I only listen to it at low volumes. But, when this one goes, unless Klipsch drastically improves, I'll go somewhere else.
Summary of Klipsch iGroove SXT Speaker System for iPhone and iPod (Black)
The original iGroove SXT, introduced in 2007, turned a lot of heads with its sleek style and performance prowess. This latest version takes that success to a whole new level, without costing a penny more. It sounds better than ever and accommodates all of the new iPod and iPhone models, even the iPhone 3G S. The iGroove SXT remains a true stereo sound system that employs dual long-throw 2.5-inch woofers in a ported enclosure and dual 3/4-inch horn-loaded tweeters. Klipsch is the only company in the iPod speaker category to utilize horn technology, a design that delivers lifelike sound as well as produces more output using less energy. The result? Huge stereo sound from a pint-sized package. And unlike before, the iGroove SXT is now bi-amplified, which means each driver is individually amplified, a feature that virtually eliminates distortion and significantly improves sonic performance. Klipsch also re-tuned the bass ports on the sides of the system to remove any "port noise."While many iPod speakers fall into the dime-a-dozen category, the iGroove SXT iPod Speaker System, with iPhone certification, definitely does not. In fact, this sleek, pint-sized powerhouse fits perfectly into any room, while making your playlists larger than life.

Technology
The iGroove SXT remains a true stereo sound system that employs dual long-throw 2.5-inch woofers in a ported enclosure and dual 3/4-inch horn-loaded tweeters. Klipsch is the only company in the iPod speaker category to utilize horn technology, a design that delivers lifelike sound as well as produces more output using less energy. The result? Huge stereo sound from a pint-sized package.
And unlike before, the iGroove SXT is now bi-amplified, which means each driver is individually amplified, a feature that virtually eliminates distortion and significantly improves sonic performance. Klipsch also re-tuned the bass ports on the sides of the system to remove any "port noise."
In addition, the amplifier is shielded from cell phone interference, so you can forget about unwanted noise when you've got an iPhone docked.
iPod/iPhone Compatibility
The iGroove SXT charges any iPod with a 30-pin connector, while the shuffle and other digital devices connect via a rear auxiliary input. Klipsch added a 1000mA rapid charge circuit to the system, so you can quickly recharge your iPod, iPod touch or iPhone.
For video-enabled iPods and iPhones, an S-video output lets you watch videos on external monitors.
Finally, need an alarm clock? Combine your iPod's alarm clock feature with the iGroove SXT.
