iPodlounge reviews Klipsch's iFi iPod speaker system

iPodlounge has a review of the iFi (not "iffy", ya dig), Klipsch's 2.1 channel iPod sound system that  combines an iPod dock and remote control with an eight-inch subwoofer and two RSX-3 satellite speakers. Even though the unit they tested was just a pre-production version, iPodlounge says that the iFi's audio quality is better than that of pretty much every other iPod-specific speaker system. For $399, it better.

Klipsch rocks so hard.
I have the promedia 5.1s for my comp.
and a pair of KG4s for my xbox :-)

#1 why on earth would you use a stereo speaker set that cost 350 for a console that so heavily supports a 5 speaker setup?

I would rather get the Bose speaker

#2 my kg4s are just the fronts . . . working on upgrading the rest of my surrounds, cause im not diggin the pioneer surrounds that I am currently sporting. so yes, I use the 5.1 of the xbox, but my setup isn't braggable so I only mentioned the sweet sweet klipschies.

Thanks for the link guys! Just to clarify, our article is an extended hands-on look rather than a review, since we don't want to review pre-production products. (We conspicuously labeled the iFi article as "pre-production" since Klipsch is sending out bunches of hardware to different editors and freelancers, and we wanted our readers to know that we were waiting to see final product before we pass judgment.)
Looks like Klipsch may be addressing issues with the RF remote control before those final units go out to the public. There's more on that and the rest of iFi in the hands-on piece.

No idea why this is news Klipsch makes the best multi media speakers. My Swans aren't even close to my PMs

Does anyone know if this unit has a line-level line output? (I wanted to use this system as the "hub" for speakers all around my house.)

I need to buy gift of a speaker/docking station for an Ipod of the regular size. I am interested in sound quality first, and it should have a remote. Lastly, IF there is one with additional speakers to place throughout the house, that is a bounus.Thanks! Maybe not a Bose.
