Manufacturer's Description
The compact and stylish Klipsch iGroove not only accepts and charges all dockable iPods, it also works with the Nano, Shuffle, a variety of MP3 players and other audio devices using the included dock adaptors. Available in a sleek silver finish, it has an aesthetic flair that nicely complements almost any room's decor. It features dual 2.5-inch fiber-composite woofers in a ported enclosure, dual 1-inch MicroTractrix Horn-loaded tweeters and a built-in iPod dock. To ensure an optimal and precise dispersion pattern, the exclusive MicroTractrix Horns are formed into the speaker baffle, a design that offers the lowest diffraction and maximum release of energy into the listening area. The system is ready to perform as soon as you plug it in and dock an iPod, and the included wireless remote control allows interaction with both the iGroove and iPod. The iGroove comes with a convenient solution for allowing the use of the Shuffle and other MP3 players. The include "J-Cup" insert can be placed in the docking area for MP3 players that use a standard mini-jack (headphone) stereo output.

Klipsch i groove is great!!!
I got a Klipsch i groove for my birthday last year, and was blown away by the sound quality for it's size. The base comes out of no where!! And the sound is very nicely balanced and can fill any room evenly.
I compared it to the Bose ipod dock and I think that Klipsch completely blew them out of the water. The Bose system just doesn't deliver the base that the I groove does. I also think that for the money it's excellent value. It is also realy simple to opperate, just simply plug in and play.
The only down side to the i groove is the controls which only allows you to skip though tracks and not much else. It would be nice if they made a set of controls where you can fully control you i pod from the other side of the room. I my oppinion it is a nice, stylish bit of kit that looks as cool as it sounds!!!
The IGroove is smoking
Bought this device from Amazon, great sound, only problem after a year that the on off button disappeared inside the unit, so we had to use the remote. Today it decided to go up in smoke, a small fire started between the Igroove contacts and the Ipod destroying both units, unfortunately this happened three months out of warranty, the Ipod was 8 months old.
Great sound, shame about the remote...
I bought this product after reading the reviews on this site for the black version (I have a silver iPod and wanted them to go together). It's easy to use, reasonably portable - we took it on holiday with us in the box it came in - and sounds fantastic. Friends have a Bose SoundDock and this is definitely comparable.
However, as other reviewers have said, the remote control is next to useless. As far as I can tell, the one I received is only good for turning the volume up and down and then only if you're standing right in front of the machine, in which case, you might as well just push the buttons on the front of the unit. It's also really, really tiny. An integral slot or space on the unit in which to store the remote would have been very useful because it's going to get swallowed up by the house in no time.
Having said all that, if good quality sound at a reasonable price is what you're after, this is the one to go for.
