Great sound! Compact & portable September 2, 2010 Ms. A. van der Velde (netherlands, europe) This unit delivers. Its got great sound both connected to the bass unit & without however the only 1 downside to this unit is the way the front speakers attach to the bass unit. It fits great & looks great however gear4 should have a better 'snap in' feature. I have found that the front part can quite easily fall off the bass unit if bumped however this is the only 'fault' id say this unit has.
The sound is superb & the fact that the front is detachable for travel is amazing. its the perfect size to just lie flat in your suitcase & the amount of standby time & playing time is pretty good if working off battery alone. There is a neat on/off switch at the back of the small speaker section so you can conserve battery when not in use.
You would be silly not to purchase this unit at this price. You really cant go wrong.
good house speaker August 2, 2010 L. Taylor when i bought the speaker i thought it would be bigger but unfortunately its quite small! its just a bit larger than an A5 piece of paper... being less than 50 watts its not amazingly loud either but the bass at is good even at the lower volume...
the sound it amazing also. i use it everyday and dont ever need it full volume. the portable bit is nice, took it to Greece this summer but as there wasnt the sub woofer the sound was obviously worse and it was pretty bad.
good buy on the whole though. recommend
Buzzing sub, front speaker doesnt work July 25, 2010 Stickerz I have ordered DUO on wednesday and on friday I already had it at home. but rewies says, great sound, superb bass, not mine one, you can hear some buzz from sub, and the bass its like knocking on the door. Does anybody got an idea why is that? I thinking about returning this thing. not impressed really.
edit: after two weeks, front detachable speakers stopped working..useless
Gear 4 iPod Dock Duo July 14, 2010 A. Mccluskey (Cheshire, UK) Very good sound quality of the main unit. The detachable portable speaker unit not unexpectedly has a lot less volume and base but still sounds remarkably good. Overall very satisfied with purchase, which represents pretty good value for money. I will be taking the portable unit away on holiday.Gear4 iPod Dock - Duo
It didn't work for long! May 27, 2010 Mr. Stephen Rowson (Berkshire, UK) Well I've had one of these for about a year and it no longer works. There is some sort of dodgy connection in there - every now and then it makes a crackling sound that makes you jump out of your skin.
So, despite sounding good when it was working, it is now useless. I won't make the mistake of buying this make again.
