Red!
Meticulously made
Sounds quite good for its size
Low volume listening seductive
Cool capacitive touch controls
Crisp and clean sound in a relatively small box
Unique design with a motorized rotating dock
Sounds as good as it looks
Impressively loud for its size
Almost as loud as Liberace's wardrobe (definitely cheaper). Chrome pedestal helps reduce reflection (i.e. music sounds better when dock's on the stand). Motorized dock cover automatically closes when iPod is removed.
Superb sounding audio quality
Tasteful modern design
Solid construction with plenty of premium elements
The editors didn't like
Expensive
Technology outdated by Apple overnight
Very little bass
$300 can get you more bang for your buck these days
Some features accessible only using the remote
Touch-sensitive controls too easy to trigger accidentally
Travelphobic
At seven pounds
This sucker's a pain to relocate
Let alone tote. Death of physical media
No CD player! Slight but noticeable sound reflection when not sitting on the stand. Figuring out how to set the alarm requires reading the manual...

FM radio seems more like a novel addition, You'll need to shell out a lot to buy it

Abstract: Apart from several changes to the top controls and the replacement of the top dock with Bluetooth wireless hardware, Model S Wireless looks and feels exactly the same as Model S. After choosing from black, white, or red colors, you still get a 9.25” ...
Abstract: I don't have high expectations when it comes to audio. I want something that sounds good enough not to make my friends cringe and doesn't take half a day for me to figure out how to set up. If the device producing the sound happens to look nice, that's...

While the Geneva Sound System Model S provides good sound quality and has some unique features, it seems a bit dated and is in need of an update to add AirPlay streaming, a Lightning connector, and the ability to work with iPads as well as iPhones and ...
It's an expensive piece of equipment, but the Geneva Model S is a well-designed mini hi-fi system. Anyone happy to spend the required money should (hopefully) be used to the finer things, and the Model S doesn't disappoint. ...

Simply put, the Model S is great. The unit itself is eye-catching, the touch-sensitive buttons—particularly the scroll wheel—are clever, and the sound quality is excellent. The motorized tray strikes me as a bit unnecessary, but as long as you keep th...

Abstract: This month, Geneva debuted its most mainstream product yet: GenevaSound S ($300), also known as the Model S, a distillation of the best-known features of its prior systems into a considerably smaller enclosure—one that can actually be sold in retail s...
