Customer Reviews:

Great system.......2007-12-13

I chose the Amplifi after a fair amount of research. I am very happy with the system and feel all the reviews I read on review sites (like CNET) were on target. My only problem, and I know it's been mentioned by other reviewers here, is that the lowest volume setting isn't very low. This hasn't posed a problem, but seems worth mentioning.

Beautiful Unit, Great Sound.......2007-11-09

After reading reviews of various speaker systems for my first ever iPod, I settled on the Griffin Amplifi. It's a beautiful, almost retro looking unit, extremely easy to use, rich sound that seems to do a nice job of filling a fairly large living room. I can't speak to its reliabilty yet, as I've only had it for a few days, but so far, so good.
I'd have given it five stars if it had some kind of treble/bass control, and if the remote somehow allowed for a bit more control over the iPod itself, i.e. changing artists, albums, etc. But, for the price, it's a wonderful addition to my ever-growing list of accessories!

It's the Bass.......2007-11-06

After spending a month checking out iPod speakers, I have to put in my two cents.
I went back and forth with the Altec Lansing im600 and something bigger.
The Griffin is about bass response. Wood cabinet like a real speaker. The Altec is great if you want to carry your speakers aound, but think about it. A two inch speaker CANNOT deliver good bass. The Griffin sports a 5 inch subwoofer. Enough said. Really no comparison if you like to hear and feel the bass in your music. While nifty for many reasons and very high quality in the mid and treble range, the Altec (or any other 2" speaker) just doesn't deliver on bass. The Griffin is equal in price and has a MUCH fuller sound. Comes down to portability. I wanted something that I could pop my iPod into when I came home and listen to without thinking, "I can't hear the bass! This would be cool, but something is missing.." Why do you think they have a "Subwoofer out" on the Altec? Of course you will never get the stereo separation from the Griffin. If you want that, plug your iPod into your HOME STEREO, not a little mini speaker system. Very pleased with the great value of this unit, with comparable sound to the Apple HiFi for less than half the price.

Great Addition To Any IPod.......2007-10-31

This unit is great. It looks part - clean, elegant, simple lines more akin to a top quality HiFi than a rerasonably priced Ipod speaker set up. The sound quality is spot on for the money. Of course, it cannot compete with bench marks such as Bose, but at this price who cares? For the layman, the quality of the sound is more than adequate, and there is enough "oomph" to cater for most peoples wattage desires. I found that adjusting the volume level on each track of my Ipod via Itunes to maximum gave a broader volume range on the Griffin - just leaving the tracks on the Ipod at the default level meant I could not annoy the neighbours so much.
The unit comes really well presented in a fancy box with everything you need to get started including AC adapter for a wide range of voltages, natty snap on adapters for differing power socket configurations (which was handy for me as I needed a three pin UK style and I hate using US-UK adapters) and a multitude of little rubber things which attach to the Ipod dock to make sure any Ipod fits snugly. Oh, and there's a remote control as well complete with battery already installed (always anice touch that - how many times have we bought electrical goods only to find the remote has no batteries included, or the ones that are are cheap lead acid ones which leak after a few days....?!).
If you are, like me, a music fan but not a true HiFi buff, then this unit is hard to beat and I thoroughly recommend it - it has the feel of a professional amplifier but a very reasonable price tag. However, if you crave digital gizmos and flashing lights, or if you are looking for 1000W RMS PMPO with 0.005% total harmonic distortion, then maybe you should stick to one of the other brands!!

Looks and sounds great, but can't turn it *down* enough........2007-10-27

I agree with the general consensus on the sound quality -- I find it to be fantastic, especially at this price point. But the volume control is criminally bad. The lowest volume setting is far, far too loud for use in a quiet environment (late at night when other family members have gone to bed, for example). Rather than tapering down gradually to quiet, it just goes from moderately loud to mute. More likely than not will be a return -- a pity, as I really like the unit otherwise.

Great Beard Trimmer.......2006-12-20

Bought to replace a Remington MB50 that had a psychotic battery after only 2 years. This Panasonice is much better. Quieter, cuts my beard more evenly, and being new, cuts it better. It is wider, but still easy to manage. Lighter and you can use it while plugged in. I understand the type of battery Panasonic uses is more reliable and has fewer memory issues than the type used by Remington.

Compact but No Range & Noisy.......2006-06-05

I liked these cause they are compact and easy to carry around. But the small size did not outweight the bad range. I had a Motorola 8 mile radio and the range was decent. Of course no where near the stated 8 miles, as none of these radios ever can acheive the stated range, but at least they were useful enough in a reasonable setting. These lost range after a city block once you turn the corner. I think the strategy with 2-way radios is to buy the highest range, like 10 miles, and hope to acheive 1/10 of the claim.

The sound quality was echo'e like from a tin can. The roger beep at the end of a conversation was too loud and can't be turned off.

DOA.......2006-05-20

DOA - dead on arrival. Powers up, display is ok. Appears to transmit, nothing on the other radio. Channel and security code set.
