XtremeMac Luna June 19th, 2007 | by Jason Tomczak

Conclusion

The XtremeMac Luna is a great little iPod-based clock/radio system for home, dorm or office use (for those that power nap at work). With its unique design, the Luna looks, functions and sounds better than most other clock/radio systems available on the market. Although I had one significant beef with the Luna (loud click-clack buttons), I was satisfied by its performance as a clock radio. As an iPod speaker system, I thought the sound was hampered when compared to more advanced systems like the Tango. But if you're in need of a simple, high quality solution for enjoying your iPod music in combination with a classy and feature rich clock radio, the Luna is a great choice.


Pros:

• Lots of great clock radio features
• Sleek, modern design
• Better sound than average clock radios
• No bulky power brick
• External audio input

Cons:

• Limited iPod menu navigation
• Excessively loud buttons
• So-so AM/FM reception
