Sonic Impact i-F3

The i-F3 from Sonic Impact delivers quality portable audio at an affordable price.

Decent audio output. Compact, durable carrying case. FM radio. Two integrated alarms, which lets you wake to iPod music.

A bit heavy. Bulky AC adapter. Alarm setting not intuitive. iPod navigation is weak.

I was thoroughly impressed with the audio output from this small and sturdy travel dock, which is perfect for hotel rooms.

Sonic Impact i-F3

The Sonic Impact i-F3 features a sturdy, highly portable design with a user-replaceable battery and nifty hidden slots for toting the iPod as well. The unit offers a dual alarm clock and an FM tuner, and it comes with a remote. Lots of bass.

The Sonic Impact i-F3 suffers from some interference from other electronics, and it's quite heavy for its size. Bass can be overpowering, and FM radio reception is poor.

The Sonic Impact i-F3 is a good portable speaker unit for klutzy iPod owners with a penchant for bass and an itch to take their music anywhere.
