CNET Review
The Good: The JBL On Time 400iHD includes an integrated iPod dock, an auxiliary line input, and both FM and AM radio functionality. HD radio capability offers more variety and better sound quality. Included iTunes Tagging makes it easy to buy songs you hear on the radio.
The Bad: The JBL On Time 400iHD is pricey, and the digital music playback quality is average. The controls are not always responsive.
