5.0 out of 5 stars great system for any ipod, August 19, 2006

By	Tatiana Tafla (Ann Arbor, MI) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: iLuv i552 Portable Audio System with Radio and Dock for iPod (Black) (Electronics)

I just got this and it's great!
It has everything I wanted in a speaker system: ipod dock that charges it while playing, radio with preset stations, aux in.
I have a 30G video and my roommate has a 60G video, changing from one to the other is as easy as changing pants...
Another thing that I really like about it is that I can play my ipod even when it is in its case without a dock insert.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good system at a good price, January 27, 2007

By	D. Mckay (Austin, Tx United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: iLuv i552 Portable Audio System with Radio and Dock for iPod (Black) (Electronics)

I purchased this after a long search. Owning a Jwin iLuv i277, I was happy with the somewhat cheap products the company puts out. From what I gathered from other reviews the major weak points are the sound quality isn't the best since the speakers are on only 2 inches and ipod fits too loosely in the cradle. One the first point they are somewhat correct. There isn't lots of bass and the sound distorts a little at the high end of the volume dial. On the second it was as wrong as it could be (at least in my case). I have a video and nano ipod and they fit snuggly and dont come free when moving around with the unit. The only other small minus is that the unit has a power brick electrical plug, but overall a great purchase.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good little machine!, March 1, 2007

By	Ipod user "Ipod searcher" (Houghton, New York USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: iLuv i552 Portable Audio System with Radio and Dock for iPod (Black) (Electronics)

I purchased this ipod player about two months ago. Presently, it is in my office. For the price, it is a great little machine. I have had no problems with it. The quality of the music is very good, considering the price. I actually thought of purchasing a BOSE ipod player for my home before I purchased this ILuv player. Having listened to the BOSE--it is a great sounding machine--I have decided that the ILuv machine is more than adequate for my needs.
I highly recommend this player: great sound, great price, and good looks.
