  • Abstract:  Some good design touches and decent sound quality, but a staggering price tag.

  • Abstract:  Joining the likes of Bose and Altec Lansing, Apple has released its own speaker unit -- the iPod Hi-Fi -- for the enormously popular iPod music player. Obviously, the idea of being able to play your extensive collection of iPod tunes for others in a v...

  • Unique sturdy construction, Powerful bass reproduction, On-board power supply, Simple design
  • High price, Precarious iPod positioning, Not that portable, Did we mention price?
  • In the end wed say that if price is your top consideration, the InMotion iM7 is your best buy. If design rates highly on your list of priorities, Apples sleek and simple lines may just sway you toward the iPod Hi-Fi. For pure sound quality, however,...

  • Abstract:  We take a quick look at the brand new iPod Hi-fi in the SmartHouse offices, under Australian conditions, to find out if it indeed cuts the musical mustard. So Apple are hi-fi manufacturers now. OK, its called a Hi-fi. Would they lie to us? Initial ...

  • If the iPod Hi-Fi wasn’t marketed as producing audiophile-quality sound, then perhaps we’d be inclined to be a little more lenient. At this price, we can’t recommend this system to anyone.

  • Great sound, refined styling and top-notch iPod integration.
  • Much larger than other iPod speaker options.
  • While the excellent Bose SoundDock is a more compact option that also produces impressive sound, the iPod Hi-Fi is certainly attractive, very well designed and louder. Both have a similar price, but if you dont mind the extra space it requires, the iP...

  • 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:  Apple made some big claims when it introduced the iPod Hi-Fi?by calling it an ?audiophile-quality? system, the company invited harsh criticism from audio geeks everywhere. Had the pitch instead been, ?We don?t think anyone else has done the all-in-one...
