Review: Powerful little speakers - I purchased this product in January of 2012 and it still works great. Haven't had a single problem with it. It keeps charge while playing music for around 4 solid hours. Which makes it pretty good for camping trips if you don't want to waste the money on an electric camp site. It also charges rather quickly, a full charge in around 30 minutes. The sound is also spectacular, for being such a small speaker set I'm amazed at the quality sound and bass it puts out. Also it gets more than loud enough for pretty much anything. I love blaring music in my house and while I work and I can't remember a single time I've turned the volume all the way up. So if you're looking for a small portable speaker system you don't have to keep plugged in, then this is perfect for you. I take it camping with me, in the bathroom for showers, and to work with me. It allows me to easily take music anywhere I want to go.
Review: The Sound of Music - The iHome iP46 is a great little speaker unit. It couldn't be more plug and play right out of the box. Just press on the retractable dock, attach your iPod or iPhone, power the unit on and it plays. And for a set of speakers that only measures 3.6 x 1.9 x 13 inches, it sounds a lot bigger. In fact, the thing is loud enough to play in a room full of people and still be heard with decent sound. One of the best parts is that it adds another charging station to our house full of iPhones and iPods. You don't even need to turn the power on for it to charge your device. You DO need to have the AC adapter plugged in for it to charge devices. We keep ours attached to the AC adapter (included) most of the time. But the thing is great to take outside (in nice weather of course). The battery(ies) last for like 8 hours before it needs recharging and you can monitor the battery life with the built in 4-bar LED battery indicator light on top of the unit. The actual battery is not replaceable by the consumer; like your iDevice the battery is 'supposed' to last for the life of the unit. The only other buttons on top of the unit are power, SRS Sound on/off, volume up and volume down. On the back of the unit there is an auxiliary input so you can play music by attaching your iPod to the dock or you can use the unit with any device by connecting with a 3.5mm jack audio cable. Also on the back of the unit is a is a switch labeled "Remote" that can be set to auto or on. I found this curious because the unit did not seem to come with a remote control of any sort. After a little searching it turns out that a remote control can be purchased separately...what a gip. The best feature of the iP46, aside from how good it sounds, is its portability. Whether you're renting a ski house, spending some time in a hotel or just plain going somewhere that you'd like to be able to listen to your music without headphones, you've found the answer here. The iP46 weighs less than 3 pounds and is super easy to pack. The dock retracts into the unit and the little legs that help it stand upright fold under the unit so that you're left with a small rectangular box that takes up barely any room in your travel bag. When we're not traveling, our iP46 has found a home in the kids' media room. Like I said earlier, we don't store it because it adds another charging station to the house. Plus the kids like to use the iP46 while they play Playstation. Now they can listen to music and use their mics while they game. Happy days. The iP46 seems a little pricy, but it's built well and I think we'll get our money's worth.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there any way you can use it with your computer?**
A: If there is a way to use it with your computer, I haven't figured it out yet. Unless you already have an older cable that will connect to this cable, but other than that, no. You can't just use it from your computer to the iPod.

**Q: Does it have a remote or can you use one with it?**
A: No remote.  On my model there is no place for a remote.  You can actually buy a blue tooth adapter that plugs into the ipod dock and you can use your phone or other blue tooth device as a remote.  Search for blue tooth 30 pin dock adapter.   Price as low as 13 bucks.

**Q: compatible with iphone 4s?**
A: I don't own an iPhone 4S, but I'm pretty sure it is compatible. I mean it uses a 30-pin plug in which is what the iPhone has. I can't think of a reason as to why it wouldn't be compatible! Hope this helps. :)

**Q: compatible with iphone 5s**
A: No it is not :( I had to get a wireless jbl flip for my iPhone 5 and I love that and this works great for my iPod 4th generation

### ⭐ Exactly what I was looking for, but...
*by B***N on January 19, 2013*

Below is my original review. Mine quit working already, so I am changing my review. I have been careful with it, and it has not been used all that much. For it to quit working this soon is unacceptable to me under any conditions. The speakers I replaced with this unit, I had used since 1984. This is exactly what I was looking for, and what I expected after having read the reviews. It is simple to use, looks nice, seems well built, and has good sound for the price. I tried several inexpensive cheap speaker systems, and this is by far the best that I tried. That said, if you expect Bose type quality, spend the extra hundreds that it will cost. If you want decent sound in a small well built product, then this is what you are looking for.
