    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.

    The Bottom Line: The JBL On Time 400iHD iPod speaker is a solid option if you are interested in HD radio and multiple alarm clock options, but the buttons may annoy you.

    Review Summary: There is only one other thing to mention about On Time 400iHD: its device compatibility. Unlike the original On Time, which used FireWire charging, 400iHD uses USB charging and therefore both charges and plays audio from 2008 iPod models, as well as ...
