Aerial fix
Noted the comments about the sensitivity. the aerial actually is just screwed into a standard socket so you can remove the telescopic aerial and connect up a more powerful aerial. This gives much more flexibility with placement of the unit5

Value for money
They're not going to compete with a good 'two satellites and subwoofer set-up' or top-end sytems, but for everyday listening (or watching films or tv programmes) on a pc (or stand-alone player) in an ordinary sized room they are very impressive, compact and extremely good value for the money. No separate amp is needed. There's no speaker balance control (left / right speaker), but this can be set-up on the pc or tv. My only very minor niggle is that they have little synthetic material labels on each side of the speaker (a bit like labels on clothing) that look really cheap and tacky, but they can be removed with a blade (used carefully!).7

Review for Pure One DAB/FM Portable Radio - Black:
Great DAB radio
Just to add to other people's positive reviews I bought one and found it really straighforward to set up. With its large speaker it's slightly bulky but it means the quality of the sound is excellent across. The reception on FM and DAB is good, better than the other two DAB radios around the house. It's quite light, even with the power pack inside. If there is a minus it's that it has no line out socket, only a headphone socket. Selecting preset stations takes a bit of getting used to but once you have the routine its really straightforward. Good value.8

Review for Intempo IDS05 B Speaker and Docking Station - Black:
WOW!!!! These speakers are fantastic.
I did a lot of research before buying these speakers. I was looking for a set of speakers that were portable enough to take away on holiday, but ones that would provide good sound quality and be used instead of a stack system. When I read the reviews on the Intempo speakers, I was persuaded to buy them. I cannot believe the sound quality. For less than £45 these speakers are amazing. They produce sound that is every bit as good as our Sony stack system which cost over three times as much. They look good too. If you are looking for a set of portable ipod speakers, stop looking and buy these!9

Review for Portable Folding Speakers for Ipods & mp3 players - white:
Good value
For only 1p this product is good despite what others may say about the sound quality. Yes the sound could be much improved but you dont really pay much attention to that when this is mainly a travel speaker set for 1p not a sound system for high quality listening. I bought this solely for travelling and they are great, a small size, lightweight and standard sound.I bought these to take skiing and are perfect for filing a apartment with music after a days skiing for 1p!

Review for GEAR4 StreetParty size 0 slim iPod speaker system.:
Sound quality is surprisingly very good, and I am a bit of an audio freak, so praise indeed. Even the bass is respectable, considering the speaker is about 2cm deep. Not sure it'll hack drum 'n bass, but can't knock it for the size & weight.
While it won't replace a dedicated iPod dock & speakers at home, its more than handy for weekends away, or holidays.
If you need a very slim, fairly lightweight speaker for an Ipod, you could do much much worse!

Review for Creative GigaWorks T20:
Halo 3 sounds a treat with the high quality sound they produce, so if you don't want the clutter of a 5.1 or 2.1 system you will not be disappointed by this great 2.0 system.
The speakers come with everything you need to plug pretty much anything into your speakers as well as your pc at the same time.
Happy listening :)

Review for Logitech Z-4 Speaker System 80w Black (2.1):
Pro's:
*Insanely cheap for the performance
*Sleek, elegant look
*Wall mountable speakers
*Handy remote with bass control
*Decent bass production
Con's:
*To me, it seems that the system lacks in the mids
Overall, the performance of these speakers is well worth the price I paid and is so good, they easily fill a room of any size. I highly recommended these speakers to anyone looking for speakers and have a pocket of £30-£100.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Logitech Z-4: Tremendous Price-to-Performance Ratio!
After months of research, comparisons and testing of many PC speakers available to me, I finally decided to purchase the Logitech Z-4 2.1 Speaker System. So far I am very pleased with my decision based on the amount I paid. Here's a few pointers:Pro's:

Review for LOGIC3 MIP100K Jivebox Speaker Dock For iPod:
Highly Recommended
This is a well built piece of kit that looks the business. The sound quality is excellent with rich powerful bass (that you feel) & very good mids & trebles. After 3 weeks use I have not experienced the Jivebox going into standby on"quiet tracks, or when being played on low volume.As with most systems,I feel that it is at at its best at mid (i.e. you can still have a conversation) & loud volume levels as you can then very clearly hear the detail in any genre of music. I also listened to the Griffin Amplifi which I feel is on a par with regard bass but can be a bit muddy with the mids - not a problem with the Jivebox as you can just adjust the bass & treble with the slim remote to suit your taste (as well as change albums, tracks,etc). The dock for Ipods is well designed as you just sit your ipod on the connector & push it back to rest on the inbuilt support(no need for additional dock connectors etc). Before buying this,I was very sceptical that a 7 inch square cube could produce quality sound, But if you buy one I'm sure that you will be equally amazed at what it pumps out! In summary,if you enjoy high quality sound I think that you will be really pleased with the Jivebox.14

DREADFUL!
So disappointing - Reception virtually non-existent. Even those stations that could be found (Radios 1 - 4 and 2 or 3 others) broke up instantly upon movement (the earphone cable acts as the antenna).We have Roberts DAB which received perfectly, so do not believe our location (North Dorset) is the issue.

Review for Sony CMT-SPZ90DB Micro Hifi System - With DAB Radio and Cassette Deck:
Only one small negative point - WHY OH WHY do manufacturers like Sony create such an excellent system then supply the speakers with paltry lengths of speaker wire. I know you can get improved speaker wire etc but really, Sony if you are supplying the wire then don't be such a cheapskate on such a trivial thing like the length of the speaker wire...GRRRRRRRR!

A superb hi fi for such a cheap price. The sound (which is perhaps the most important thing) is excellent. It has clarity and substance. I cannot get DAB so I wasn't concerned about that facility, otherwise the FM is very good.Only one small negative point - WHY OH WHY do manufacturers like Sony create such an excellent system then supply the speakers with paltry lengths of speaker wire.

The Charging Problems
The audio quality is fine. However the whole package, supplied I assume by Pyramid Distribution, is let down by the add-on cheap and nasty 13A to USA two-pin adaptor. I have had it apart and there is no way it is going to work reliably with the supplied Logitech AC-DC converter. It falls out. Fortunately being a Radio Ham I had a USA 2-pin socket to hand. This grips the converter pins tightly and the unit is charging as I speak. Try Maplin for supplies. Please get the Pyramid to change their source / designMichael J Ledger

Excellent sound quality,v/good tone control. Easy to tune and set up.Pleasure to listen to. Bought with recharge battery pack,works well. Was able to pick up 14 No 90- 100% reception Dab stations in North Dorset using radio ariel. Tried TV ariel was worse. Would need to buy Dab ariel to get more stations. Very slight grumble, instruction book says that I have a sleep timer for radio to turn off in 15, 30 mins etc,have not got this! Other timers work well. Argee with other writer that screen display is bright for bedroom even on lowest setting.Ended up draping piece of material accross radio front.the TOP 10 Amplifiers, the TOP 10 CD Players & Recorders, the TOP 10 Speakers, the TOP 10 Digital Radio (DAB), the TOP 10 Karaoke Players, the TOP 10 Micro Systems, the TOP 10 Minidisc Players, the TOP 10 Mini Systems, the TOP 10 Music Accessories, the TOP 10 Receivers, the TOP 10 Tuners, the TOP 10 Turntables
