Upside: Most buyers won’t care about the iPod Hi-Fi’s lack of extended high frequencies or true deep bass. With compressed recordings via an iPod, it sounds decent as long as it isn’t turned up too loud. Its compact form and portability make it ideal f...
Well built and easy to set-up. Works well with all iPod models and the remote is quite good. Can be used outside as long you don't mind the weight of the batteries. Sound quality is very good, but the top end has been lobbed off to protect you from the evils of MP3s. Will play very loudly.
Is not as good as Steve Jobs claims. With all of the batteries inside, it weighs far too much. Top end does not have enough extension. May encourage you to listen far too loudly. Soundstage width and depth suffers due to the design.
The iPod Hi-Fi is a credible desktop system that works very well with the iPod, but it is hardly the high-end audio system killer that Steve Jobs bragged about. It faces a lot of competition from Klipsch, Altec Lansing, Monitor Audio, and others....
Abstract: Last week, I was looking for a speaker system for my iPod, so I walked to the Apple Store on University Avenue and got an Apple Hi-Fi. I was looking for something with a clean design and sound quality. The Apple Hi-Fi seemed like the perfect candidate...

Abstract: Despite all my criticisms, the iPod Hi-Fi delivers a great room-filling sound and decent bass, especially for an all-in-one unit. However, Apple’s claims that it is portable are more of a gimmick than practical. Just because it CAN run off batteries...
Abstract: Apples computers have always been audio- and video-friendly, but the company has mostly left the home entertainment part of the equation up to third-party developers. Although an Apple hard-disk video recorder or music server has seemed like an obvio...
The Hi-Fis sound quality is good enough to earn it our Great rating, but we cant help thinking about how Awesome it could be with either a lower price or some innovative iPod-oriented features.
Abstract: The iPod Hi-Fi from Apple is described as a new high-fidelity speaker system that works with the iPod and a home stereo system. It’s a very nice package and will appeal to true iPod devotees. However, at US$349, it’s not something I personally...
Abstract: Apple are a little late to the iPod speaker party, but their late entrant has raced to the front of the grid offering stunning sounds if not the most eye watering design. We put the iPod HiFi through its paces.
