If you watched the video portion of this review you will have learned that I have evaluated may of the iPod docks on the market. Features and Notes - The Philips Fidelio DS8530 accepts iPhone, iPods, AND iPads - which sets it apart from many of the other high-end iPod docks on the market. The input adapter is well-designed and will not require you take off *most* of the cases that are on the market (the main exceptions will be with iPads). - Very good sound performance, especially once you adjust the equalizer settings using the Fidelio app. While the Fidelio works straight with iTunes (Although you will still need to download the Fidelio app) - the sound performance seems flatter to me... maybe I am imagining it.... but I don't think so. Also, the speaker can be very loud - you will have no difficulty in filling a large room with music. - The Fidelio app works pretty well. As mentioned it allows you to control equalizer settings, but it also links directly with Tune-in Radio (which in my opinion is the best way to listen to internet radio). This feature works great and is very easy to navigate. I will say that navigating through your playlists using the Fidelio app is not quite as easy. It is also a bit difficult (at times) to forward and replay songs.... I am hoping than an update on the app will fix this. - Looks- very nice and unassuming design and look. Understated for sure. I love the fact that there are no bright lights to keep you awake at night. Another novel ...
