Customer Reviews

Great Sound by Clematis
I have two friends who already had this product and I just had to have it. We use it for music on the golf course. Great way to relax while playing golf. The sound is unbelievable, the unit is easy to set up and easy to transport. There are two draw backs. I wish it came with a remote control. I have a newer nano and it does not fit well in the dock. If I put it in the converter dock then I cannot use the play button on my nano. Bad design in that sense. If you want a great sounding unit though, this is it.

Very disappointed with service and product just ok by SIMMONS Catherine
After doing extensive research on portable Ipod systems, I chose the iM9 because of the rave reviews. While the sound is fine (although I was initially very disappointed since my expectations were high after all the wonderful reviews) the worst has been the terrible, wretched, unbelievably bad “customer service” from Altec Lansing. In the product description, it claims that it comes with international plug adapters. One of the reasons I purchased the iM9 is that I travel extensively abroad and planned to use those plugs. The plugs did not come in the box as advertised, and trying to get a response or anyone even remotely competent on the phone or by email at Altec is impossible. If it weren’t such a hassle and expense to return things, I would send it back.

works great by Gordon M. Dick
Sound is good and all is great. The only minor complaint is that I have a nano and the cradle that they give you for the nano doesn’t fit.

Satisfied by Satisfied
The Im9 is as expected, sound quality is very good, easy to use. There is a noticable pop or click at the beginning and end of a song as discribed in other reviews as well as the volume is somewhat high when first turned on. Battery life is excellent and the quality more than makes up for the negative issues.
