Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I don't know much about the sound to comment on it, not to mention it's highly subjective. Take my review for few basic comments.
1. This dock is extremely simple, without much function. For instance, there is not even power on/off button. You plug in the power, and it's on all the time through standby mode.
2. It's inconvenient to control your ipod once it's attached to the dock; pandora is fine, but if you want to go through your music files, or want to search on youtube for music, it's like using ipod on 90 degree angle.
3. Since its power is always on, you can hear the annoying (Hssss...) sound when your ipod is attached. You can eliminate this sound by pressing AUX button on a remote, but it's a pain if you are sensitive.
4. Dock doesn't support a headphone! Arrrrhhh... It has AUX slot for external devices, but it would have been nice if this dock could eliminate the use of amp for ipod/headphone.
5. No support for ipad, both as a charger and speaker.
6. Its application, fidello, is extremely simple as well. You see a lot of complains on its review, and I was surprised because I chose this dock instead of more expensive zeppelin with an idea that a new model in 2010 must have better support.
While some people have complained about this dock's shape, I am quite fond of it. My main complain is lack of support for headphone, hissing sound(barely audible, but still a pain to turn it off through AUX button), and the steep angle of ipod on it. Also, the 3.5 AUX cable provided is extremely poor in quality(probably cost a dollar or two), and I think Philips could have done better considering this dock's price.
