Kicker iKICK 09iK501 / iK501

awesome buy!!!

Beast!!! Bought one for my cousin and was blown away by the quality! Must have!!

excellent product

Great sound well built best docking station i have ever heard small in size but sounds like a full size stereo great product

Good Sound, Bad Design

The iK501 was perfect out of the box although I feared the angle of docking connector would be a problem. (when docked, the phone stands almost straight up, and can lean slightly forward "prying" pressure on the connector) My intuition was correct - after a couple months of docking/un-docking, the connection between my iPhone & the iK501 began to have connectivity problems. *Have you noticed that almost every other docking station brand has the iPhone or iPod leaning backwards? Now you know why! Other than connectivity, the box sounds great when connected. Summary - I love the sound but hate the connector design.

Ikick is amazing

Got the Ikick for my husband and he absolutely loves it!

This sounds incredible! Ive heard the bose, logitech, klipsch, jbl, coby, philips.... (need i go on?) and none of them compare to the full quality you can get from this dock. play it loud, louder, or even quiet with no distortion. I love it. How can the other docks even try and compare when the kicker has a sub on the back?

Misleading But Still The Loudest Dock I've Ever Heard

I got this expecting a loud dock. Wow! it's definately loud. There are a few things i want to address though.

-The Subwoofer...is not a subwoofer. it's a passive radiator. Additionally, it is INCREDIBLY "One-note." It loves the 65hz range and nothing else. People say that it doesn't miss a note, but trust me it does. I expected this, however, so i planned to run this with a home audio sub. That leads me to the RCA outputs.

-The RCA outputs don't change volume!!! Kicker says you can connect this to other components with them, but you can't since they won't change volume. -_- Now i have to run my ipod to a fiio E6, to a splitter. And then connect this and the sub to the split outputs. Also, i cant use the remote.

-The Amp: This part I actually was positive about! The amp has a built in limiter, which is great! Instead of clipping, your music will just cut out. This is your cue to turn the bass down. (When i listen to rap at volume 40, the bass has to be at -9. When i hook up that sub, it won't be a big deal though.

This product is great for the price. The bass is very tight, and the highs are very clear. Don't hesitate to buy it! You can not get a better value for under $200.

I've had this boombox for a year now it is a very great sounding stereo. I do recommend this. I have an iPhone and it gets rattled off. It does need more bass though. The 6" sub is cute.

Awesome Product

This speaker kicks ass, I use it daily. The sound quality is superb and the reflex coil in the back kicks. I use this thing for parties of up to 40 people and it is perfect. Overall great product.

Look no further if you need an iphone Dock

I have looked at a lot of ipod or iphone docks and this one is by far the best one. Its like a Bose speaker. Small but the bass in it booms. For the price, not too bad.
