Editorial Review:

The Bose?? SoundDock?? digital music system was specifically designed to expand and enhance your enjoyment of the music stored on your iPod. Just slip it into the docking cradle for the sound quality your favorite songs deserve. The iPod charges as it plays, so you enjoy music without interruption. Its sleek, slender design, in White or Black, fits almost any room's d??cor. And the included remote lets you control the SoundDock system from across the room. Enjoy the songs on your iPod like never before. The SoundDock system is designed to play your favorite tracks with crisp clarity, allowing you to discover subtleties in your music that used to simmer beneath the surface. A host of proprietary technologies adds vitality and realism to your tracks. With Bose proprietary acoustic design, you enjoy a full, rich sound that's greater than you'd expect from a system this small. The SoundDock system is easy to operate. Just plug it in, pop in your iPod and play. Your iPod works as long as it has a dock connector on the bottom. There are no extra wires or adapters. The remote allows you to control your music at the push of a button. And a stylish, sophisticated look means it can be the center of attention or blend in wherever you place it. The SoundDock system and your iPod share a commitment to simplicity, quality and above all, music. Now just introduce them and watch this pair become best friends.

hissing noise:

I have the same problem as one of the other reviewers: I get a high-pitched noise whenever my iPod Touch is in the dock, whether it's on or off. Google around and you'll see that others have had this problem. The problem is not my iPod, either--I've tried this with two different generations of iPod Touch with the same result. Nor is it, as some have suggested, a problem that fixes itself when you turn the wifi on the iPod off. It is just outrageous to have a problem like this on an item in this price... more info

Bose® SoundDock® Series II digital music system for iPod® - Black
I ordered older model and was upgraded at no charge to the SoundDock II Series. Bose makes an excellent product. I am very happy with the purchase. Thank you Amazon.com for free upgrade.

Bose is always good:

Good product, but I thought I was purchasing the portable system. Very disappointed that I made that mistake.
To return it, I would have had to pay shipping plus a very handsome restocking fee.
I tried just exchanging it for the more expensive portable one, without a restocking fee, but they would not allow that.

Waste of Money, select the Athena iVoice Instead!:

If you are buying this product because you believe in the myth that Bose creates quality, go right ahead. I purchased this and found constant problems getting the iPod to make dock connections, starting at full volume and after one year it quit. I bought the Athena iVoice Direct Radiating Dock & Sound System for iPod at the same time. The Athena's sound was superior for one-fourth the price. The Athena is still working, enough said.
