Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great sound in a smallish, attractive design.
I considered the JBL Onstage and the Micro Radial and opted for this one because I was able to get it for just over $100. I just wanted a nice, small system I could move around between rooms in a small house. I'm more of a music lover than an audiophile and wasn't expecting $500 sound from this device anyway, but I'm very impressed with its perfomance. I've put it through the runs with everything from AC/DC to Arvo Part, and the sound is even better than I expected. There is some slight breakup while playing bass-heavy music, as other reviews have noted, but I think it's only an issue if that's the bulk of your music library. As for the other bells and whistles, I don't have any strong opinions on the layout of the controls, etc. I do like presence of the S-video output and intend to make use of it in the future. For what I paid and what I expected, it's a great system.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Awesome speaker system!
Works and sounds great! The remote is very handy! Has a great look to it and it seems to be something that lasts a long time. Nice work JBL!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great power in a cute little package
I love this thing. I did a lot of research for a great-sounding iPod dock/speaker system before buying so I expected it to be great, and I have not been disappointed. It has great sound and great power, more than I can ever use in my flat without infuriating my neighbors. It's attractive and compact. My only complaint is that the volume moves up/down in noticeable increments, so it's occasionally difficult to get it at the precise volume I'd like (again, the neighbors), but that is a very minor annoyance. The little remote takes a bit of thought to use but is quite easy once you get the hang of it, and there is a handy sticker guide to the buttons on the back of the remote, if you need a hint. It wasn't the cheapest one around, but once you listen to it the reason why is obvious; it is absolutely worth the extra spend.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great sound for a great price.
I love my JBL speaker. After reading all the reviews from others, I decided to go with the less expensive model at $99. I was not disappointed; in fact, I was thrilled. I bought a Logitech for $129 awhile back and the sound is not nearly as good. I use the speaker in workshops for movement so I really want a great sound. I am so grateful for everyone else's reviews! Great product!
