The Klipsch RoomGroove Wireless iPod Speaker System costs $199.95 on Amazon at present date. That is somewhere in between competing speakers as far as price goes. So just how good is the Klipsch?

I got recommended this shelf system from a friend of mine. So I went down to the neighbourhood Apple store and checked it out by comparing it to competing systems. I found that in the compact space it gave great sound.

I found that the sound was really clean on the Klipsch. When I tried Apple’s boombox, it had amazing bass and the Bose had a mix of pretty good bass and pretty good clean sound.

I tried a variety of music on the Klipsch from rock, to classical, to blues and country. They all sounded great. The only issue was that the bass distorted slightly at a high volume. The highs were crisp and the lows were rich.

One issue I had was the flimsy remote. It performs some of the required functions but not all. Apart from that I loved this system. In my opinion it is the best compact iPod speaker system in many respects.
