Sony RDP-X500IP Personal Audio Docking System

Like two recent Editors' Choice speakers, the Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin Air ($599.95, 4 stars) and the Bose SoundLink Wireless Mobile Speaker ($299.95, 4 stars), the RDP-X500IP is wearing the required speaker dock uniform—black cloth speaker grilles and silver-colored metallic accents. A rounded trapezoid,  the dock features a thin, stainless steel top panel that houses minimal controls: Power, Audio In (for switching audio sources), Play/Pause, and Volume Up/Down. Your iPad, Pod, or iPhone sits in a retractable tray, also stainless steel, emblazoned with the Sony logo.  When pressed, the tray extends from the base slowly and gracefully—it's just a little detail that clues you in that this speaker is well made. The back panel, also all black cloth, has a small connection area for the included power adapter, as well as a 3.5mm aux input for non-Apple sound sources.

The Logitech S715i Rechargeable Speaker for iPod and iPhone Enables You To Bring Your Tunes With You

Floor tape dispenser makes taping easier; Christopher I. Poulos

The Logitech S715i Rechargeable Speaker for iPod and iPhone is certainly a nice looking portable speaker with excellent sound. This high-fidelity speaker, with its compact design, rechargeable battery and travel case, allows you to play your music for 8 straight hours, no matter where you are. The speaker is certified to operate on an iPod and iPhone. It comes with a travel case, which can carry the lightweight speaker, handheld control and A/C adapter. Yes, conspicuity tape is easy to fit and can be applied by yourself or in-house.

Connect the system right out of the box and it sounds very good. The kickstand is a little flimsy but when set up, it supports the speaker very well. It may well lack some of the elegance of other products, but the sound quality is better, and that is what matters. Even though the speaker is small in size, the quality of sound is quite full and clean with an impressive bass. At times the bass might be a little too pounding, and the mids are slightly lacking, but it has been compared to Bose by some listeners, which is a fair comparison. If you try to compare and contrast the quality of sound between this speaker and a Bose in a loud store, you may have a hard time deciding. But quality of sound is also quite subjective so you may want to search for a way to listen to the speaker yourself in a controlled environment. Save time with our floor tape dispenser to quickly install large. floor tape applicator for the laying of self adhesive tape to mark lanes or areas.
