Summary: doesn't work with new ipods
Comment: The sound is great but it doesn't work with the new nanos (the chrome looking ones). I think they are 6th generation? not sure. To be honest I don't know the difference between a nano and a mini. At any rate, it still plays music from the ipod but won't charge it for you, which was really the main reason i bought it. i already opened it so can't return it, i bought a plug in adaptor and will keep this to use as a speaker for the apartment, and the sound quality is a++ but i'm disappointed. why in the world did apple make a new ipod that they know it's compatible with the speakers on the market? i feel like they did it to force ppl to have to buy new speakers (they sell speakers at apple after all).

Summary: excellent sound quality for the size
Comment: This is an excellent item for the price and size. The only down side is no ability to adjust volume on the base of the machine.

Customer Rating:
Summary: big sound
Comment: I highly reccomend the JBL on stage II. this is probably the best deal available for big sound out of your ipod. yes I know you read reviews about bose and some of the other bigger speakers systems but lets face it they are pretty good money for one of those systems. do they sound better? I have listened to all of them and I have been an audiophile for at least three decades, and yes they do sound better to a degree. but I ask you is that degree worth another $100 -300?? this JBL produces room filling sound that does not sound like it is coming from a tin can. it is rich and there is considerable bass for such a small unit. one of the many things I like about it is when I mount my ipod classic I can sit it on the table in front of me and it puts the screen at a decent viewing hieght so now I can watch a movie with spectacular sound and with the discomfort of headphones. also it is ultra portable. Want to take it to a friends? or to your hotel room? the jbl is light and small enough to pull that off without feeling like you need another suitcase.it will easily fit in a messenger bag, a briefcase, whatever....carry it in your hand for that matter it's ringlike shape makes it easy to carry. the transformer is more of a problem being just a big sguare of weight.
also when I say the sound is good, believe me it is! I have had so many friends look at it and say "all that sound is coming from that little thing???" heck the first time I heard one I did the same thing. I was at a friends party and I thought he had a stereo blarring until I noticed this little device sitting on the end table next to his couch. So unassuming I had not even noticed it, until his roommate went over to change the music. I had been on the fence as to what speaker system I wanted to purchase for my Ipod and was leaning toward the very expensive Bose, but when I heard the sound coming from the JBL I was sold right there on the spot. I highly recommend you give one a try I really think you will be pleased.
