Great iPod Speakers

I've been a fan of Logitech's audio products for some time now, because they seamlessly integrate the three things that matter most-performance, design, and ease of use. The prices are generally pretty reasonable, too. Unfortunately, although the...

Sleek design. Powerful output. Simple, touch-sensitive, flat front panel. Apple iPod video/photo-out for TVs.

Terrible power adapter (unplugs easily). No iPod navigation from remote or base control. Radio preset navigation could be simpler.

If audio quality is your main concern, Logitech's AudioStation lives up to the company's reputation for great sound. Some minor design flaws and the exclusion of iPod navigation from the remote, however, make this product less appealing.

Though it's not feature-heavy, Logitech's AudioStation looks and sounds sweet.

Logitech AudioStation Express review

Logitech AudioStation Express

The AudioStation Express iPod speaker offers an understated design with a small desktop footprint, and it sounds decent when played at low volumes. It includes some nice extras, such as a padded case, a wireless remote, and a line-in cable.

The AudioStation Express is too boxy to be considered truly travel-friendly. The unit is lacking in bass, and the audio quality is subpar at high volumes.

The Logitech AudioStation Express is a smartly designed iPod speaker that will make a worthy addition to your desk or nightstand, but those who like to blast the tunes should look elsewhere.

Logitech AudioStation review

The AudioStation, which carries a list price of $300, is an all-black affair that caters to owners of black iPods, but white and other colored iPods don't clash too badly with the system; they'll just stand out against the black background rather than...

Logitech's AudioStation iPod home speaker system is sleekly designed and has a built-in iPod dock that charges your iPod. It includes an AM/FM tuner, a clock, a line input, and both composite and S-Video outputs for displaying iPod videos and photos on...

The AudioStation is expensive, the S-Video slot is recessed, making it difficult to plug in many S-Video cables, and there's no alarm to go with the clock.

If you have $300 to blow on an iPod speaker system, the Logitech AudioStation is a strong contender for your money.

Logitech AudioStation iPod Speaker System

N iPods (and MP3 players in general) have changed the way we store, transport, share, and even listen to music. Given the falling price of memory, it

Great-looking unit ; Charges iPod while playing, plus provides video out ; Digital AM/FM, nice big backlit display

Expensive ; Menu layout may seem cumbersome

A great addition to the coffee table if you can get past the price tag. Once the menu layout has been committed to memory, use is fairly straight forward, albeit a tad cumbersome; I found myself reaching for the manual on more than one occasion. Sound...

Stylish system offers a compelling combination of sound quality and features.

Like Tivoli Audio's iYiYi, Logitech's $300 AudioStation is a premium "desktop" speaker system. As with most speakers in this class -- compact, one-piece systems that require AC power -- the AudioStation offers bigger (and better) sound than most...

Very good sound quality ; attractive design ; AM/FM tuner with RDS ; S- and composite-video output ; large LCD display with different brightness levels when the system is on and off ; full-featured remote

No data connection for syncing your iPod ; clock missing alarm function ; RDS feature doesn't work consistently ; average radio reception ; very large power adapter

At 16.3 inches wide by 7.3 inches tall by 5.8 inches deep, the AudioStation is wider but thinner than the iYiYi. But the most immediately-noticeable difference between the two is in their designs. Whereas the iYiYi features a retro look with a glossy...

Logitech AudioStation High-Performance Stereo System for iPod

There are two known facts about all-in-one iPod speakers. First, there are better options out there than Bose's well-known SoundDock (iLounge rating: B+). Second, and despite that fact, the SoundDock remains the most popular such speaker by a wide...

A best-of-class all-in-one docking speaker system for the iPod, featuring a recessed Universal iPod Dock with matching adapters, good Infrared remote control, AM/FM radio tuning, and auxiliary input and output ports. Integrated LCD screen provides a...

Staid design. Only available in black. Slight performance oddities in AM radio, remote, and touch controls under some circumstances

Though we can't speak to the reliability of every unit coming off Logitech's assembly lines, and it's entirely possible that there were some bad units or a bad batch, we've had no problems with our AudioStation. You shouldn't hear a great deal of fuzz...
