 no-brainer September 30, 2008
Stu (Pennsylvania)
I just received my Logitech Pure-Fi Elite,set up was effortless and idiot proof. Between the listed retail and the actual price paid at Amazon, saved about $185.00....Couldn't be happier with any procuct.Sound is great for such a small unit.Would happily recommend this unit to anyone with any type of ipod including all the new generations....
As good as Bose September 25, 2008
Ame R. Brown (Washington DC)
I've had this system for about a month and am really impressed with it. THe sound is as good, if not better, than the Bose sound dock. I like the remote a lot, and the price was great.
Great sound for price September 15, 2008
J. Lewis (Dallas, Texas, USA)
Only con is that the remote isn't as capable as others I've used, but for the price, the sound is great. You can go with Bose for about another $100-$150 and the sound is slightly better, but this one sounds great for what I paid ($140 I think?). Keep in mind, it does not have battery power. Go with the pure-fi anywhere if you want battery powered.
Great Value for a countertop iPOD player September 14, 2008
Tough Critic (Reno, NV United States)
I am very pleased with my new Logitech Pure-Fi Elite. This unit puts out good quality sound and the remote control is superior to many other iPOD players I have used. When comparing iPOD players the remote control is very important because you use it all the time. This player is every bit the equal to the Bose Soundock, which is over double the price of the Logitech Pure-Fi Elite. The Pure-Fi Elite is great for a bedroom, kitchen countertop or home office. I use mine mainly in the kitchen. It will not replace a stereo system powered by a dedicated audio receiver and separate speakers. The speakers play loud enough for most rock music lovers in a typical bedroom.
The unit includes a digital AM/FM tuner but it will only sound good when receiving strong FM signals.
Another nice feature is the digital display which shows the time and the station frequency when listening to the radio. You can set the brightness on the digital display which is useful if you want to keep the Logitech in your bedroom. Overall the Pure-Fi Elite is a great value for the price.

I purchased my unit in July, 2008. Have had it approx. 1 month now w/ no regrets. Research-wise, I did the things shoppers typically do. Went to the major electronic stores, plugged my nano into the available offerings (of which there were quite a few), and was generally very disappointed in the less than desireable sounds (absence of decent bass and barely adequate treble) emanating from the units priced between $80 - $150. The Bose system was significantly better, but at $300 it had better be. I wrote off those other systems costing over $300, thinking there MUST be something that provides greater value for my dollars.
I spent several hours on-line sifting thru reviews (those here at Amazon, and at other reputable audio review sites). One item kept popping up w/ very positive reviews, the Pure-Fi Elite.
During my research it appeared that the reason this unit doesn't appear on the major electronic stores' shelves, may have had something to do w/ it's predecessor's issues w/ faulty control buttons. Issues that seemed to have been resolved w/ this model.
While normally reluctant to buy an electronic device w/out having test driven it first, the overwhelmingly positive reviews given at multiple sites led me to take a chance and go for it.
My findings:
*The bass produced by the 4" woofers is FAR better than those $150 units that I test drove at the stores. I find the bass to be comparable to that of the $300 Bose. And I do like the fact that you can easily adjust the treble and bass to your liking.
*Despite an earlier review referring to a "bad smell" when first removed from the box, I failed to notice any repugnant smell. Nor did my son (whose sense of smell falls just short of that of a bloodhound run out of the room crying foul.)
*The power block is relatively large (just short of being the size of a brick), but it doesn't weigh anything near what a brick weighs. The block sits in the middle of two relatively long cords that lead to the power source and the unit itself -- which allowed me to hide same behind a small piece of bedroom furniture, so I never notice it.
Set-up was easy, the remote works very well. I like the fact that the unit is relatively heavy as compared to the other units I tried out (offtimes the additional weight can be attributed to heavier magnets that make up the woofers -- a good thing). It more than adequately fills my 20x20 bedroom w/ non-distorted sound.
In short, I am very pleased w/ this unit. Performance and reliability has been great, and on a price/value scale, this unit definitely surpasses the others. Now if I can just keep my boys from borrowing this unit from me I'll be alright.
