| User Reviews |  | Great product, with one small "but" rating: 4
This thing is pretty cool. It sounds fantastic. I read all the reviews and a few of the complaints about how it sounds. However, it sounds great to me. It gets plenty loud, and sounds rich and full - not like its sound coming out of a box. This is PERFECT for tailgate parties, BBQs, boating. I found myself using it in place of my home stereo a couple of times. All my friends thought it was cool and commented on how great it sounded. The remote control works well, but you don't have "full" control of the iPod - no big deal to me.
ONE WATCHOUT - There is no adaptor available for 3rd generation iPods. When I called their customer service line, they said "they were aware of this and were working on the problem." Your 3rd gen. iPod will fit just fine, but it will NOT be held securely in place. If you're not planning on moving it around a lot when the iPod is docked, then there should be no problem. It just kind of irked me that they included every single adaptor EXCEPT for the 3rd generation iPod - which aint exactly new.
Overall, great product, with one little annoying quirk, but I got over it quickly. Buy it!

Cheap plastic - not worth the money rating: 1
Bought this a year ago and it has already broken down. The place where you insert the ipod is made of cheap plastic and the door is very flimsy. The door broke with 1 year and the item was unusable. From a company like this I would have expected better. A complete waste of money and I would suggest that you do not waste your money on this like I did.

Awesome speakers!! rating: 5
This speaker system is simply awesome!!
It's the best thing invented after the iPod itself. I am very happy with it, great sound, portability and even looks. I bought this one as a gift for a friend, I've had mine for about a year now and no complaints at all.

Great Price for a great sound rating: 4
I chose this product after reading many different reviews online. Needless to say that I was not disappointed in the sound quality or the volume. The thing projected so well we used it for our wedding reception instead of renting sound gear, and it work much better than expected. Loud enough when time dictated, and soft with enough power. Plus, you're probably not going to find a better price then on here. There are slots of D batteries, but I haven't used that function yet.

Complete OWNAGE rating: 5
The IM7 rips to shreds any other speaker system I have ever owned - that INCLUDES a few Logitech 2.1 systems I've used for my dorm - that also includes my roommate's Harman Kardon and Sony 2.1 systems.
This bad boy fills my entire 35X25 dorm up no problem, even with a crowd of loud, drunken Wellesley girls. The bass is unexpectedly full, loud, and bumping. The main speakers hit the highs, mids, and lows no problem. Hip Hop sounds AMAZING on the IM7.
I bought the speakers with the carrying case and WILL DEFINITELY be taking it to a few hotel room parties with me and overseas for Spring Break.
As for problems with the dock or the ipod freezing - my best advice is that if you have a more recent Ipod model you should be fine - the newer hard drives can deal with the BASS BUMPING intensity of this speaker system. The remote control is weak, but I could honestly care less.
I give this speaker system 5 out 5 shot glasses - definitely a must buy, oh and did I forget to mention that it's PORTABLE!!!
