If you are thinking about turning your iPod into a sleek home stereo, this is the gadget to choose. Well designed and sounding terrifc we have come to expect no less of the Bose engineers. The design is absolutely simplistic, an aspect that puts it above the comeptitors on the market already - the system itself has only volume control buttons, everything else is done through the iPod unit you plug in, or through a remote, which should look familiar if you own a Bose waveradio. These feautures make it really, eally easy to use. What will ultimately convince you to buy this system is the superior sound it puts out - listen and compare, it has no equal.I gave it 4 out of 5, because it only supports iPods from Gen. II on and it is only available in white, not in black. Absolutely no other complaints about this great product!
