MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
I'm looking for a new ipod dock for the kitchen somewhere around £100 - £150, want it to look nice and sound good.
I was going to go for the [url= http://www.amazon.co.uk/Klipsch-iGroove-Certified-Speaker-System/dp/B005MYJQQ8/ref=pd_cp_ce_3 ]Klipsch iGroove[/url] but it doesn't have a DAB tuner which would be nice to have.
Any recommendations or anything to avoid?
I've got a Pure iPod / iPhone Dock DAB clock radio thing, very happy with it.

I got the Sony integrated-everything one last year. It's very good.
Cougar, was it [url= http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-CMTCX5BIP-Hi-Fi-System-iPhone/dp/B00594OFV2 ]this one?[/url]

have had the Klipsch igroove for a few yrs - very impressed with it indeed - IMO a lot better sound than the BOSE Sound-dock
No, [url= http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-XDRDS12IP-iPhone-Speaker-Function/dp/B0046GDMBS ]this one[/url] I think.
mrjmt - I have the one you pictured as a bedroom stereo and it's been good so far. I have one small issue with the setting of volume on the alarm on it, but if you aren't planning to use that function it's otherwise a great little stereo and I generally hate sony stuff.
Speakers are separate too which is worth being aware of.
[EDIT] ~I said little - it's actually quite large (wide/tall), but has a small footprint as it's shallow.
Yamaha everytime
I have the one sold through apple (can't remember its name). Its good.

I've been very happy with this one, comes in under budget as well
Have the same Pure. iDock. Mine was £60 from John Lewis (ex demo). The display is rather bright at night, the sound is nowhere near as good as the iGroove (have one in the kitchen), but it isn't bad either.
I think you'll need to spend a lot more to improve significantly.
EDIT: forgot to say for DAB use on the iGroove, I use TuneIn Radio on an ipod touch. We have it on the phone as well, but the iGroove picks up interference with the iPhone.
happy with the pure one here - our display dims at night so its not annoying
