Full Review - Conclusion
Conclusion
This is yet another solid iPod dock from JBL. The Radial never fails to impress with its powerful sound and it can handle any genre of music thrown at it. At $299 it is a bit high for an iPod dock but the sound is well worth it if you have the money burning a hole in your pocket. Those of you looking for impressive sound at a lower cost could always check out the JBL OnStage II. Beautiful design and a nice remote add to the already impressive package of the Radial. If you’ve been searching for an alternative high-end iPod dock, this could be the one for you.
Pros:
• Great sound for all genres of music
• Comes in black and white
• Beautiful design
Cons:
• No touch sensitive buttons
• Sound cuts out occasionally due to fixed dock design
• Price a little high for the average consumer
