Sound: 5 Stars, finally a device in which a full and rich sound gets even at low volumes. Facilities: Minimalist (On / Off, Volume, Input Select, bass), everything you need for enjoying music, no unnecessary gadgets. Compatibility: iPod 5th generation, unfortunately, is not compatible, but probably the iPhone 3GS and iPod Classic and Nano. Processing: Good Design: beautiful.
I also own the Bose Sound Wave Radio with iPod adapter. The SBX is better and costs much less than the sound by far.
Update January 2014: after nearly 2 years, the Dock has given up the ghost and I am again landed at Bose!
