Klipsch iGrove SXT Review
(guest post)
For music lovers like me, it’s important to find a sound system that amplifies and brings out the best in my music, yet I’m not willing to spend a fortune on something like a Bose.
Klipsch iGroove SXT Speaker System for iPhone and iPod (Black)
Finally, it seems I’ve found the perfect iPod speaker system to perform all the things I wanted. And it’s even made everyone who hears it jealous because now they all wish they had one.
Guess I’ll have to start guarding my new Klipsch iPod dock with my life!
So why is everyone so jealous and I’m so happy? Well, here’s why it’s awesome, and better than any other iPod speaker system of it’s kind.
Portability
The Klipsch iGroove SXT Speaker System is quite honestly the most portable iPod dock I’ve ever seen compatible with my latest generation iPod Touch. It weighs less than four pounds (3.2 to be exact) and it has ‘net’ covered speakers, reducing that plastic toy speaker sound. The only thing I’m not too fond of is there is no handle in which to carry the dock but it doesn’t cause to much of a problem for transportation.
The speaker system fits about anywhere. It goes nicely against a wall, on a table or dresser and doesn’t take up hardly any space in even small living areas. It has a very sleek and modern style so it will never be out of place in any room.
Great Sound and a Bass Booster
Your neighbors might not be as happy with your bass booming speaker selection as you are, but I guarantee you’ll be finding every reason there is to plug in your device and turn it on. The bass is incredible, making all your music sound less tinny, and makes your rap music sound even better than before. You’ll hear all the music’s little details.
I’ve tried all different styles of music; rap, classic rock, heavy metal, jazz, hip-hop, and they all have been enhanced due to this dock. But I will say it makes us hip hop/rap fans the happiest due to its ‘horn technology’.
The company boasts that Klipsch is the only speaker system in the world to utilize this kind of technology, resulting in huge stereo sound coming from a pint-sized piece of equipment. Remember that buzzing noise that usually emits from speakers after you’ve plugged a device in? Well, you can remember no more, because due to the guarding walls around the back and side of your device, it keeps out those random noise signals that make other iPod docks buzz.
Set-up
Some of us prefer not to read directions and just get to the point. Klipsch makes this habit easy to deal with, because you technically don’t even have to read the little two-page booklet that comes in the box. Simply take out your stereo, plug in the adapters, choose a device holder, put your iPod or iPhone in and it’s ready to go. The remote comes with batteries so its ready to use.
Extra Cool Stuff
So besides just being an external iPod or iPhone speaker, the Klipsch iGroove SXT has other awesome features too. Using an adapter cord (not included) you can hook the speakers and device up to an external screen to watch movies, music videos or your favorite TV shows, all from your device.
You can also use your Apple products’ built in alarm clock or download free apps, to use this dock as your alarm clock. The benefit here is that it won’t drain your portable device battery, since the Klipsch charges your device automatically whenever it’s in the dock.
Basically, choosing this dock system is one of the best electronic decisions I’ve made. And even though it’s a little pricier than some other brands, it’s worth the extra dollars due to it’s great sound and portability.
