Good value but sound and design could be better

The style of the iP1 is a cool idea, but it probably could have been better. Because of the minimalistic design, some practical stuff like a case and/or a handle to assist with moving were not implemented.

The sound is better than expected. It reaches higher volumes but favors more of the high/mid range. Ihe bass IS there, but lacks a little depth.

All-in-all, none of my complaint's are bad enough not to buy the system, because most similar systems sell for a higher price.

Pros and Cons

Pros:
Good quality sound, convenient to use with iPhone/iPod, better price than competitor's like Bose, Design is cool.
Cons:
Not really easy to carry or move, has a power 'brick' that is cumbersome and unnecessary, lacks a little in sound dynamics.
