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. Now available in this high Gloss sleek black 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.

Good but not perfect
Great value vs other players I have tried. The bass is somewhat too strong. I set my iPod to "bass reduced" EQ settings and it is better. Its just a little boomy by traditional audiophile standards.
That said, I think its one of the best products otu there for its size / price.
Excellent
I have just purchased an ipod classic (80gb) and a Klipsch igroove speaker system from Amazon, my first purchase in ages. Firstly, first rate delivery from Amazon, purchased both items on Thursday after 9 p.m. and decided against paying for delivery for Saturday morning even though I wanted them to arrive as soon as possible. To my surprise, both the ipod and speaker system arrived on Saturday morning and I didn't pay a penny for postage!!!!!
I have now started the longer process of transferring all my albums which I have accumulated over many years onto my ipod. First impressions of both the ipod (first one I have purchased) and the Klipsch igroove are first rate. The ipod is easy to use, even for someone who isn't part of the yooottthhh download generation. The speaker system is really good, looks and feels excellent (more heavy than you would imagine). I was torn between the igroove and Intempos DAB/ipod system but although the reviews of the latter on Amazon are really positive, reviews on What Hifi werent so I plumped for the igroove and I am not disappointed. It delivers a really rich, base sound which more than fills my bedroom office. If you are going to choose one speaker system, make it this one.
Thanks Amazon
Great Looks, Great Sound, Great Quality
Its hard to find a Klipsch Igroove in the high street and therefore how do you know how good it sounds before you buy it? I suspect like me, most buyers are going to read the Amazon reviews and take a chance that the reviews are accurate. Klipsch is also a specialist speaker manufacture of good reputation so that's another reason to take a chance without listening to it first. Well don't worry because it sounds great. Many of the reviews rave about the sound quality but it still amazed me when I first heard it. It looks very good as well - smaller than I had imagined which make it all the more amazing that it can generate such a rich sound. My only gripe, which other reviwers have picked up, is the very basic remote control but that's being ultra critical. Buy the Igroove and you won't be dissappointed - at £100 it's a bargain.
