The Bose SoundDock II offers a solid combination of build quality, convenience, compatibility and sound quality, although not in proportions that are for everyone ... However, for those needing a bit more performance, other products exist which might better fit the bill.

If you're looking for an affordable, musical iPod dock then the SoundDock II is a good place to start.

If the Series II’s plain looks and simple, familiar audio performance are highly appealing to you, or you really need a nearly identical iPhone-ready replacement for your original SoundDock, consider this a good option.
