    CNET Review

    The Good: iPod speaker with built-in subwoofer; streams wireless audio from Bluetooth sources; FM radio with 20 presets; good sound quality.

    The Bad: Lacks CD, USB port, alarms, and video-out options found on earlier, more affordable model; major battery requirements for portable use; shoddy speakerphone performance; tacky rhythm-sensitive LED lights; slight speaker buzz when iPod is connected.

    The Bottom Line: While the iLuv i399 is still a solid-sounding iPod speaker dock, we wish it had held on to some of the features the made the previous model such an excellent value.

    Review Summary: The majority of the front is taken up by a large, mesh speaker grille which conceals left and right 3.5-inch speaker drivers. Along the top edge, to the right of the iPod dock, is an LCD display that shows the time and current audio source; just in ...
