Get great sound throughout the room with Logitech’s Pure-Fi Express Plus Speaker Dock for your iPod or iPhone. The Pure-Fi Express Plus features omnidirectional acoustic technology, which provides great sound at a more consistent level throughout the room. It also includes the ability to run on AC or battery power, which–along with an integrated handle–makes it easy to take your music from room to room. Other features include a clock with alarm, so you can rest assured that you?ll wake on time; and a wireless remote control that works from up to 30 feet (10 meters) away, and stores neatly in an integrated compartment. In all, it’s a great way to dock, play, and charge your iPod or iPhone. Logitech?s Omnidirectional Advantage: Make Any Spot in Your Room a Sweet Spot You don’t sit in one spot when you?re listening to music from your iPod. Shouldn?t your speakers produce great sound no matter where you are in your room? Most of today’s speakers for the iPod are designed to deliver the highest-quality sound immediately in front of the speakers. If you move from what audiophiles call the sweet spot on the couch to the impromptu dance floor, the sound you hear can easily become distorted, and you might find yourself out of step. The Logitech Pure-Fi Express Plus omnidirectional speakers are designed to transmit sound more consistently over a wider range of space, so you never miss a beat–no matter where you are in the room. Traditional Versus Omnidirectional Loudspeakers Most speakers are designed to radiate sound in a fixed direction. As shown in Figure 1, traditional speakers optimize sound for a sweet spot located directly in front of the speakers. In other words, the sweet spot is limited to a constrained sound field that fans outward in one direction. If you?re outside the sweet spot, you?ll hear unbalanced sound due to loudspeaker directionality. Logitech Audio Labs’ omnidirectional speakers di (more…)

Tell me little Pure-Fi, what do you want to be when you grow up?
Even after a month of using this speaker dock, I am left asking - what does it really want to be? Speaker dock, speaker clock, portable speakers?

Perfect fit
I really enjoy the product. It compliments the iPhone very well. The combination of the two has replace an alarm clock, shortwave radio, cd player and satelite radio receiver.

Nice sound, lacking in features
The number one criteria for any speaker really is the sound quality. And that is the strength of these speakers. On an absolute level they’re not fantastic.

Great customer service department!
I received this nice little alarm clock and once it was setup I soon noticed that is was losing time really bad. For every 5 minutes that went by it would lose 2 minutes.
