don't buy it May 24, 2010
own an apple hi fi and love it. never had any kind of problem. bought 2 of my daughters bose sound docks and love them no problems. bought one of my daughters a jbl radial. love the sound but the system will lock up your i pod. have seen several reviews with the same problem. called jbl about the problem. spoke to 3 different people in india who you could not understand. got an american on the phone and jbl denies they have had problems. ask around and you will find out. buy a bose or an apple hi fi if you can find one. i will never buy another jbl product.

Spend the extra $50 and buy the BOSE!! Mar 11, 2010
My gf bought this for me for a xmas present to go with my New Ipod Touch and I was very excited when I got it. Love the radial design and ease of use. But after using it for a couple of months now, I have to say it is way overpriced for what you get as terms of sound quality. The bass is almost non existant once you turn it up past about half way. The sound is good for an office or small room but is far from what you want if you want to use this anywhere else. I tested my ipod on my friends Bose ipod dock, which runs about $300 and it destroys this system in almost every way possible.

I repeatedly asked my gf what she paid for this system (I was figuring around $100, based upon its performance) and I was shocked when she told me $250. You can get a Home theater in a box with an ipod dock for that. This is by no means anything close to a real high end system especially considering the price. This system should have better sound all the way around for this kind of money. I am selling this on ebay, with my gf approval, and will be getting the Bose system shortly.

Like I said in the title, spend the extra $50 or so dollars and buy the BOSE Ipod dock...it is well worth the money and destroys this system in almost every way.

Great all in one system Sep 22, 2009
These are great speakers for what they are, a portable sound system for docking iPods. They sound good and put out loud enough volume to have it at parties. Its sounds very good in quiet environments and it functions out of the box.

I'm writing this review because I upgraded my iPod to the Touch 2nd Gen. The JBL Radial Micro still puts sound through the dock connection and fits the iPod Touch, however, it won't charge because of the new requirement from Apple to have a apple authentication chip.

I still give it 4 stars, because it works perfectly with my old nano and my 5th generation iPod 30gb.

If you are thinking of using this for your iPod Touch or iPhone, keep in mind that it won't charge at the same time, but still will put out sound. The remote works still, but as long as the iPod Touch/iPhone doesn't lock itself automatically.

Sorry, but I think it's over rated Jul 08, 2009
I bought this based on all the great reviews, but having listened to it for two weeks, I have to say it is over rated. While it has plenty of volume to fill a decent sized room, the sound is somewhat hollow (for lack of a better term). I have tried it using every equilizer setting on my ipod 5g and even tried some custom settings, but no luck. Not bad for it's size and weight, but I would look elsewhere.

Great for the office! May 22, 2009
This is the perfect size for my desk and the sound is surprisingly good. Neat design. Only thing that would make it better is if it also charged ipod while docked. It doesn't.
