Product Description

From the Manufacturer--Posted October 1, 2008

Connect your compatible iPod using the convenient built-in dock and listen as your music comes to life. Create playlists on your iPod player and let the ZS-S2i do the rest. The Mega Bass sound system delivers hard-hitting bass, and the 30-station memory presets use electronic settings so it's always easy to find your favorite radio shows. For added convenience, an audio-in port lets you use other digital music players; the CD player features CD-R/RW playback so you can enjoy your personal CD mixes. A wireless remote control is included, making it easy to change tracks or adjust the volume from across the room. And don't worry about your iPod running out of juice; the ZS-S2i charges it while it's connected.

5.0 out of 5 stars Served my purposes wonderfully, November 20, 2008

This is a neat boombox. I use it when I am cooking or just relaxing. I have only used it indoors (where it sounds great), but I think it is good (though not the best) for outdoors as well.

I had modest expectations when I purchased this and it has worked very well for me. I use an ipod touch in the docking station at it works great. There is no way to navigate ipod menu's (such as artist, songs, and playlist) on the boombox itself, but I use the touch interface on my ipod and it works fine. Of course, the play, pause, and forward/backward skip buttons on the boombox can be used with the ipod (for example, after you choose your favorite artist, playlist,etc on your ipod unit then you can hit play on the boombox and the song will play).

The cd player works great even with heavily used or slightly scratched cds and also plays cdr or cdrw burnt cds. The radio gets great reception. Although you won't be able to throw a window shattering party with this one, I think it is a good buy for most people.

4.0 out of 5 stars handy, but not small!, July 24, 2008

I bought this box mostly to have a portable player for my ipod. This also has a cd player and radio which seemed to make it more functional but it is definitely not small/light/as portable as some of the other products I looked at. The sound is ok, not teriffic, but good enough for the backyard or listening around the house. I think I will use it a lot.

4.0 out of 5 stars Exactly what I wanted!, June 28, 2008

I am very pleased with my purchase! This was exactly what I wanted in order to a) give me an Ipod dock and b) eliminate the big bulky stereo system in my bedroom. So now I can choose to play my Ipod, listen to a CD or the radio! Plus it will charge my Ipod without having to turn on the computer! Great sound, great price! I would recommend!
