iLuv i399 (Black, Bluetooth)

OVR

Product Summary

The good: iPod speaker with built-in subwoofer; streams wireless audio from Bluetooth sources; FM radio with 20 presets; good sound quality.

The bad: Lacks CD, USB port, alarms, and video-out options found on earlier, more affordable model; major battery requirements for portable use; shoddy speakerphone performance; tacky rhythm-sensitive LED lights; slight speaker buzz when iPod is connected.

The bottom line: While the iLuv i399 is still a solid-sounding iPod speaker dock, we wish it had held on to some of the features the made the previous model such an excellent value.
