5.0 out of 5 stars Sweet tones with a 25w per channel tube amp!, December 3, 2008
This review is from: Fatman - RED-i - Integrated Amp w/Speakers and iPod Dock
Wow, the last time I heard such clarity from a system I was listening to a McIntosh tube amp. What the tubes do is add a warmth to the sound not re-creatable by a solid state amplifier. The aesthetics of this unit are very pleasing. To see the tubes glowing and the old round aluminum knobs brings back memories of older systems that we had in the 70's. Matter of fact this system does resemble a McIntosh MC40, but that's my opinion.

Pure audiophiles may cringe at the fact that one of the sources is an ipod. In my opinion, when I am listening to a 320k song the sound is just as good as SACD or HDCD. What I find that this is a great shelf system. The speakers are pretty well built. They are easy a few pounds by themselves. High quality unit for sure.

If you have a iPod video you can connect it to an svideo capable monitor.

So now for the specs:
* Integrated amp with vacuum tube stage
* Built-in iPod dock
* iPod video via composite and S-video outs
* Ported-design bookshelf speakers
* Metallized cone woofers
* 1" soft dome tweeters
* Wireless remote
* Power Output: 25Wx2
* Frequency Response: 20Hz - 20KHz (±1.5Db)
* Harmonic Distortion: </= 0.5%
* Signal-To-Noise Ratio: >/= 86Db
* Input Impedance: 100Kohm
* Output Impedance: 4ohm, 8ohm
* Valve Type: 2x6N1(ECC85)
* 1x6E2(EM87)
* Power Supply: AC100~120V/50~60Hz, AC220~240V/50~60Hz
* Dimensions: Amp: 450x220x210 mm ( WxHxD), Speaker: 330x315x210 mm ( WxHxD)
* Weight: Amp: 5.8kgs, Speaker: 6.8kgs


After you buy this I recommend playing "Little Wing" by Stevie Ray Vaughn. This is on Stevie Ray Vaughan - Greatest Hits. This system is hands down the best sounding sub 1000 tube system available. I have listened to many at our local audiophile store and this one is so good I had to buy it.

Pros:
>> Sweet, warm sound
>> Compact size
>> High quality
>> recharges ipod
>> Very nice remote
>> Price for tube system

Cons:
<< Inputs

Thank you for reading my review.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best IPOD Dock on the Market, December 18, 2008
This review is from: Fatman - RED-i - Integrated Amp w/Speakers and iPod Dock
The sound from the Itube Red-I is amazing. In addition, the design is elegant and functional. I actually got this for a 20% discount from a local store. Every 2nd generation IPOD function is available from the remote which is very hard to find. The clarity of this system cannot be described, you must hear it with your own ears. Bose does not want you to hear your music on their SoundDocks, they only want you to hear the professionally recorded canned commercials they play. Take your IPOD down to a store that stocks the Fatman Itube and just listen. You will be sold. The second generation IPOD Touch is very well supported from the back by an adjustable, cushioned metal wedge. Excellent design. The Itube Red-I also charges the IPOD while playing the warmest, most pleasing sound from any IPOD dock on the market. I checked out Harmon-Kardon, Bose, Kicker, and several others, nothing compares to the Itube, nothing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Quality could be better, October 31, 2009
By J. Solle (MESA,AZ) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Fatman - RED-i - Integrated Amp w/Speakers and iPod Dock
So I have had this for 18 months now and still love it. The remote sucks, cheap junk. Have unit in bedroom looks so cool space saving and night light with the tubes glowing. Sound quality is warm with a little tinny sound. I upgraded and hooked a definitive technology pro 800 subwoofer and used the high pass filter. Now this baby looks and sounds better than any system I have seen yet for ipod. Keep in mind for what it is. All guest who I show it to love it. I cant get video to work though. Not the cheapest thing in the world. Total spent 1k and not regretting it one bit.
