The sound is sharp and it fills a large sized room. The sound is not overpowering, though. On songs with a lot of heavy base, it does distort a little at high volumes. Tivoli recommends not turning on ipod's equalizer as this could cause damage to the speakers.
I can pick up radio stations from far away. It looks really cool. My ipod looks like it belongs with it. It is compact, so it fits just about anywhere you want to put it without taking up too much space. The power cord is just that, a power cord. It tucks away neatly.
The other cool thing about it is that when you unplug it, it remembers what time it is and your preset radio stations.
I like this product and I think it is worth the price.
Buy Tivoli iYiYi High-Fidelity AM/FM Stereo System with Alarm Clock and iPod Dock (Black/Silver) Now
After a lot of browsing around for a bookshelf iPod system, I chose the Iyiyi and really, really like it.I found that I could easily adjust and fix sound issues via my iPod's EQ settings. Initially my bass was a bit distorted, but a few adjustments on the iPod itself made this Tivoli unit sound bright, full, and crisp. I know some people prefer the sound on the Bose SoundDock, but I have to wonder if they might have changed their mind if they had used the Iyiyi and just made some changes on their player--for me it just took five minutes of tinkering and listening. To each his own, I guess.Very pretty. Awesome sound. No snooze.
I received the iYiYi as a gift meant to replace my iHome alarm clock. It's definitely an upgrade in terms of sound quality, but I wasn't looking for new speakers.
Also, it took three email exchanges with Tivoli customer service before confirming there was in fact no snooze function for the alarm.
I'm back to using my iHome and am only disappointed with the lack of snooze. It's otherwise a great product. The alarm feature shouldn't be used in marketing.Great product.Iwas able to reduce clutter on my nightstand by 50%. The sound is crisp and clear and the unit is sleek and modern and complements my modern bed room.Sound-wise this system delivers. The iPod cradle is not compatible with my 2nd generation Touch. It will play, but not charge. This was a disappoint. At that time customer support advised of an additional 3rd party purchase ( $40-50) that would provide that functionality.
I already had the hardware that enables both an audio connection using the headphone output on the Touch and charging. This allows me to play music and read with an ereader app. Would not be able to do that using the dock, so the issue faded for me.
It does say in the manuel something about not being compatible with later iPod models. This is not easily perceived from the website( at least for me).
I own two other Tivoli radios and was pleased with their performance and sound. This system matches that part of my expectation, excluding the cradle. I view that more of a reflection of the Apple progression and the drumbeat of technology change.
