Excellent Speaker
Written by YX from TORONTO
Apr 18, 2008
Hi, I just got my JBL 200ID today. The sound is excellent on my itouch. Highly recommended. I am an electrical engineer, so I can explain how to choose a speaker from it specs. When you compare speakers you can check four basic specs. The first one is Power, the greater the power the louder your speaker can go, however louder of the sound doesn’t mean it has good quality.
In order to check for the quality of sound you need look out for two things. One is called input impedance for an idea amplifier the input impedance is infinite, but we can’t achieve infinite impedance in our world, so the larger the impedance the better, because it can regenerate a more accurate sound.
Another one to look for is Signal-to noise ratio (SNR): Hence the name signal to noise ratio is the desired signal to the power of the noise. Thus, we want higher the SNR is better. Note the unit of SNR is in dB. dB is a log scale which means if one speaker has SNR is 80dB and another one is 85dB, the difference of the two is 5dB, in linear scale the factor is three. In another word, the signal is three times better.
The last one is Frequency response, for human year the range of sound we can hear is from 20 Hz to 20kHz. Therefore idea speaker will cover the whole range. Of course in reality not every speaker can meet this range but the more closer to this range the speaker is better.
Well, I hope it will help you to choose your idea speaker. Last thing this JBL 200ID is great speaker highly recommended.

JBL On Stage 200ID Loudspeaker Dock
Late but great
Written by MM from LOCUST VALLEY
Apr 13, 2008
The JBL On Stage 200ID, originally due out in February, just made its debut on the Apple Store. I had listened to the Altec Lansing T612, and was impressed, but it doesn't allow you to simply answer an incoming call – you have to pull the iPhone from its cradle to converse. I ordered mine on April 10 and got it (without paying for expedited shipping) the next day.
The unit is elegant and very light. It comes with a mini remote, an audio cord (for non-docking audio sources), and an assortment of cradle modifiers to accommodate several flavors of iPod and of course, the iPhone. I had my unit up and running within a minute of opening the box, minus the cradle insert, which I only discovered later upon reading the scanty documentation. The minimalist on-board controls consist of I/O, + (louder) and – (you get the idea). A power port and audio in flank the I/O switch, and a minute green LED provides the only feedback. The diminutive, made-to-be-lost remote offers standard nav and control features. (To remove the protective strip over the battery, squeeze the small end clip in towards the center, then pull the battery cradle out.)
To my untutored ears, the sound is great, and I haven't even had the nerve to crank it up all the way. It seems to reproduce frequencies across the board with verve and clarity, and I'm completely satisfied. As for functionality, an incoming call stops the play, the ringtone sounds, the unit becomes a virtual speakerphone (but you're using the iPhone's mike), and when you end the call, play resumes. In short, this unit, some $50 less than the T612, was well worth the wait.
Pros: Great sound, no GSM interference, excellent iPhone compatibility, compact and attractive, charges docked iPhone even when unit is turned off, extremely easy to set up and use.
Cons: Requires AC, no built-in mike for speakerphone, sparse documentation for iPhone users. Apple description indicates a USB connection in rear of unit: I may be blind, but I can't find it.

JBL On Stage 200ID Loudspeaker Dock
Impressive
Written by RB from Miami Beach
Apr 12, 2008
I'm truly impressed with this dock. It beats the Altec Lansing dock on all accounts - the design is beautiful and doesn't look like a cheap SoundDock rip off, the remote control navigates through your whole iPod/iPhone rather than just within a playlist, i've had zero problems using it without having to put it into airplane mode, and the price is $50 cheaper than the competition. Most importantly, however, the dock sounds fantastic - it is frankly surprising that so much sound comes from such a little package. I think it sounds crisper than the other Altec Lansing dock as well. I took a bit of a gamble with this thing because I couldn't find any reviews on it, but I am more than happy with it.

Quality Sound!
Written by BH
Dec 19, 2009
I was surprised how well the speakers fill the room. Has an excellent range of sound, even has some bass. Very crisp sound, a clean look, and easy operation. Has only a" -" and a "+" button on top, very simple. Also has a compact remote. Only downside is that I think it is a little pricy but when compared to what else best buy has in this range it beats them all. …More

Drains the charge out of the iPod
Written by DF from Woodside
Oct 9, 2009
I've had my JBL OnStage for a little over a year. in addition to the volume issue and the skipping issue, which was annoying--but for the sound quality and money i didn't complain. but now it drains the charge out of my iPod whether i'm using it or not. if i leave it docked for even a short time, i come back and it's completely dead. i hope the manufacturers are reading these comments. …More

Almost perfect (only coz it ain't portable :) )
Written by GR from Sydney

awsome set of speakers for your ipod/iphones
Has a remote that functions easliy.
sounds is top notch for the price
Lack of bass, but again..price range is fine.
mids and highs are also fine for this price.
the only reason its a 4 out of 5 is because it ain't portable, but i knew that when I bought it.
Really worth looking at...
recommend it! …More5 of 5 people found this useful
