Compact powerhouse of sound,

This review is from: Philips Fidelio DS3010 Docking Speaker for iPod and iPhone (Electronics)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
Being a Bose SoundDock owner, I had high expectations for this device and was pleasantly surprised that it delivered in spades.
DESIGN:
The design is asthetically pleasing, front speaker mesh looks good and is tightly stretched. The Ipod connector is sturdy and holds my 3rd gen Nano w/ no issues. The built in volume buttons are backlit, a nice touch.
SOUND:
This thing is LOUD. I listen to high bitrate mp3s and podcasts on my Ipod and the clarity was flawless. The bass boost technology delivers surprisingly solid deep notes. Not that hollow tinny sound you find in many cheap portable devices. Sound quality is good from behind the device also.
ACCESSORIES:
Don't have an ipod? No problem. Just hook the included USB cable to your laptop and play your music library through iTunes over the Philips. Beats the crap out of laptop speakers! The unit also runs on 4 AA batteries, which would make it easy to throw in a bag an take to the...Read more

This review is from: Philips Fidelio DS3010 Docking Speaker for iPod and iPhone (Electronics)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
This is a very nice sounding speaker system for your iphone or ipod. It also has a free app (search under Phillips Fidelio, or just Phillips on Itunes if you want to see app screen shot and user reviews) that expand the capabilities of the speaker. It also has an aux in that I really like and the ability to synch to your computer while your device is docked.
The most important part of the Phillips is how it sounds. I was very impressed. I have had compact speakers before and the sound is a cut above most and is definitely good sound for the current price point. Very rich and lush and easily loud enough to fill our 18 by 18 living room. Good bass, very much to my liking. Not too much bass but the bass that is there is rich and resonant. I also like the aux in which allows for a lot of versatility. You can use this as your computer speaker. I might go android in my next phone, but this will still work. My Zune works with it. You also get a cable to allow synching while...Read more

This review is from: Philips Fidelio DS3010 Docking Speaker for iPod and iPhone (Electronics)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
This docking speaker, made by Philips, is a tremendous accompaniment to your IPhone, IPod, and recorded music. Used to listen to music on the computer-did not realize what I was missing until this came.
As soon as the docking apparatus arrived, I plugged in my iPod and have scarcely enjoyed music so much.
The quality of sound is indeed impressive; the music is richer and fuller.
This little unit is attractive and easy to set up and use. It has a small footprint and fits just about anywhere.
The acoustic quality of this device is fantastic-it is a tremendous value and very well priced for such a terrific sound machine!
