Bose SoundDock vs Kicker iKick IK501?

All I want is one simple answer and that is which one has better sound quality. I know there is a difference in price but i was just wondering about the sound quality. And I prefer a balanced sound over a bass heavy sound.

    Is Bose really that bad?

    I own a Bose in-ear headphones and Bose Sounddock portable and I think their sound quality is pretty good. Why do most people on online forums HATE Bose. They won’t even consider it, like when the word Bose comes up they just reject it immediately. Have they ever owned Bose? Or are they just saying what others are saying. I understand Bose is overpriced, but are they really crap like people say they are. And whats the difference with PAPER cones compared to others? They say paper cones are cheap and the worst. Maybe they may be fragile but may be the best sound? IDK, help me. I love sound and music but I can’t decide because the Bose marketing really attracts me!

          Is Bose a dependable stereo brand?

          I got a Bose Sounddock 10 for xmas. It died after 10 days. I’ve had the smaller Bose iPod doc for about 4 years with no problems. And my last 2 cars have Bose systems that work great. I was surprised when the Sounddock took a dump. The sound quality of Bose is awesome, no doubt. But how about dependability? The Sounddock 10 is a 0 item. I’m not sure if I want to replace the one I got or maybe go with another brand.

            Would using a 3.5mm jack splitter affect sound quality?

            I have a sound system that I want to connect to my computer and my iPhone dock at the same time. To stop the inconvenience of swapping the wires round each time I want to use each different device I was considering purchase a 3.5mm jack splitter. Would this effect the sound quality coming out of my speakers? I have a 5.1 logitech surround sound system

              My ipod is sounding very distorted on the bass ever since I used it on the Bose portable sounddock….?

              How can I fix my ipod so the sound is complete with the bass sound when i listen to it using my ear phones? For some reason, when i used this on the bose system, it sounds so clear, the bass was very loud and very clear but I think that this stereo is taking away the sound quality of the ipod which sounds distorted on the bass when I use it with my ear phones.

              Which iPod dock to buy?

              I’m looking for an iPod dock with DAB radio and an alarm clock. One with good sound quality and volume and I’m willing to spend up to £80. Design wise I’d prefer it to be smaller than larger, although I don’t really mind the colour. It’s for an iPod touch 16GB.

              What's the best way to hear music with iPod Touch in car?

              I have heard Bluetooth is best, but there is also USB, AUX output, wireless FM transmitter and even car stereos with iPod docks. I’d think a direct connect without wireless would be best, but I really don’t know.

              I currently have a Monster iCarPlay Wireless 800 FM Transmitter and the little tuning button on it likes to move on it’s own and it also seems sometimes it isn’t fully connected so I get seconds of static then the song comes back, like if I shift the car and hit the wire, it jiggles it loose. Not to mention the sound quality just SUCKS! When I turn my music up, if someone sings something that starts with S – it’s just distorted and crappy.

              I am looking for a completely different sound quality from that and was pretty much wondering what everyone else’s opinion is.

              iPod dock vs line in?

              I just bought a home theatre system, and one of the options is an iPod dock, which I didn’t buy.

              Is there any difference in sound quality using a dock vs just plugging the iPod into the audio input of the system with a male to male mini RCA jack?

              Is the only advantage to the dock that it also charges the iPod?

              I don’t mean like recording it off my docking station; the sound quality is bad. I mean plugging my ipod into the mac ibook and recording it straight off of the ipod onto garageband. Sorr if this is confusing, im confused myself.

              Is this a good iPod/Car adapter?

              Well, my BFs birthday is in two weeks and when he came to town two days ago, we ended up going to Wally World to try and find one of these. Problem was, the cheapest one they had was ! Well, my bf’s birthday is in two weeks and I’d like to get one of these for him, and I was sure I could find a much better deal online.

              I found one for but honestly, it almost seems too good to be true. What do you think?

              http://cgi.ebay.com/Wireless-FM-Transmitter-Car-Adapter-Charger-IPod-/300445203254?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Other_MP3_Player_Accessories&hash=item45f3edfb36

              It operates using radio frequency, which I kind of like only because in one of his trucks has a CD player whereas the other uses a tape deck, so this adapter would work for both. However, the fact that it operates on radio frequency also makes it sound shoddy to me. Would he get static, then, or would the sound quality be just fine?

              What do you think? Its only , but I’d like to get some opinions before I buy it as a gift for him.

              Thanks!

              Can the cope with lots of volume for partys and low volume for when im in my room without loosing any sound quality at all?
              My current iwantit is great at louder volume but when its just me, the bass goes, the treble goes, its just not as good as it is when its loud.

              any suggestions :D

              play ipod/iphone through car speakers? TEN POINTS?

              Can someone please give me some insight on this topic. I currently have an iphone and I am trying to play music through the speakers of my car. What is the best way of doing this? I am trying to get the best sound quality and prefer not to have anything that’s wireless. I have seen people with ipod docks that plug right into the cigarette lighter socket and play great what technically is this because i don’t think it plays through the radio.

              Best advice gets 10 points
              I do not have an AUX jack in my car: 2005 bmw 325i nor do I have a cassette player so it looks as if i will have to use an fm transmitter :(
              unless there are better alternatives

              but thanks so far for the great advise

              hello!

              ive been researching these for a few days. i have one myself and i like it but im getting one for my parents for the holidays.

              it needs to be compatible with the iphone 3gs and also charge the device.

              here are the two i have been looking at:

              http://www.amazon.com/Altec-Lansing-T612-Digital-Speaker/dp/B0014XKQY2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=mp3&qid=1259788873&sr=1-1

              &

              http://www.amazon.com/iHome-iP9SR-Clock-iPhone-Silver/dp/B001L9KN56/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=mp3&qid=1259788903&sr=1-3

              ones and altec lansing and ones an ihome.
              i have an altec lansing right now.. but im not sure if ihomes are better.

              im worried mostly about sound quality and the fact that it can charge.

              what are your favorites? or.. which would you chose out of these two

              I'm trying to find speakers or a dock for iPod Touch that also has FM radio and a CD player?

              I believe it’s a 2nd Gen iPod Touch. I really want to get the Bose SoundDock Series II but it doesn’t have radio or a CD player. I’m willing to pay up to 0 and I’d like it to have amazing sound quality, just like the Bose. And preferably in black and I don’t want it to be a clock radio. I want a top quality dock, not the cheap crappy stuff.
