If you own an iPod, you probably want to also own some sort of iPod docking station. Yet, in order to figure out which one is the best one for your situation, you might want to read several iPod docking station reviews. Just how do you tell what makes good iPod docks?
One of the popular choices for iPod docking station reviews and products is JBL, which carries the JBL iPod dock. JBL’s iPod docking station reviews show that their JBL Duet 200 was unveiled at the CES trade show in Las Vegas, Nevada and got high reviews. This docking station was found to be static free when people listened to HD radio stations. It also can be use to listen to FM stations with high quality CD sound and it also has a feature that allows you to store live song information from stations by pushing a special “tag” button.
JBL makes many other versions of their docking stations, including JBL On Time 200ID, JBL On Stage IIIP, On Time 400IHD, On Stage 200ID and On Stage 400ID. JBL iPod docks are consistently rated high in performance.

Another company that makes docking stations and has information on iPod docking station reviews is Bose. Reviews on the Bose line of iPod docking stations reveals that its name alone is helpful in what brand people choose. Customers of the Bose docking station report that it is “easy to use,” and the sound “is richer and crisper than any I have ever heard before.”
Another happy Bose customer reported that the size of the Bose was what they liked best. The Bose SoundDock Docking Station for iPod weighs just 4.56 pounds and is easy to carry around just about anywhere you want to bring it. They said that it, “easily replaced my monster stereo system.”
Some of their other models include : SoundDock Series II, SoundDock Portable and SoundDock 10. Which model you get depends on what exactly you need and want it to do for you. Each model has its own unique features, as well as maintaining the Bose features you have grown to love.
One thing customers asked for and got with the Series II – the ability for the remote to interact with the iPod docking station. This one lets you navigate through your playlists as you listen to the music.
Another feature of most iPod docking stations that customers enjoy is the ability to download the latest software from Apple to keep their products updated. Bose also allows this feature in their products.
Depending on what IPod model you own, you should check your software regularly to see if you are using the most up-to-date version of the program. You can check which one to use in your owner’s manual or on the manufacturer’s websites.
All in all, it’s very important to read the latest iPod docking station reviews before you decide on what product or brand to purchase. These are just two of the available brands of iPod docking stations to choose from. Happy Listening!
