Boombox for iPad Tablet Very nice.

Very nice., This device sounds surprisingly good, of course this is subjective. If you have a tube amplifier in your den then this device will sound like junk however, if you've heard some of these other devices at a brick and mortar store you will appreciate the sound. The reasons I purchased this unit (as a gift) are as follows:

Easily portable (lightweight sits on the mantel, kitchen counter or in the grass)
Rechargeable batteries (I'm not sure they are easily serviceable though)
Remote control (decent range 20ft is the furthest I've tested)
Has an FM Tuner!
The sound has a nice range (I doubt it's loud enough for a party outside however decent enough to entertain a few guest in your kitchen and family room) No booming bass if you're looking for that check out (Kicker iK501 Digital Stereo).

Now what I don't like about is that old school antennae which is destined to break. They should have used a rubber antennae.

I purchased this from Amazon.
