The editors liked

  • 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  • Technology outdated by Apple overnight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

  • Modern and minimalist styling, good sound quality
  • The touch-sensitive buttons are tricky to operate
  • The Geneva Model S is an expensive, high quality mini hi-fi system that incorporates an iPod dock, FM and DAB+ digital radio. It's very stylish and its sound quality is excellent...

  • Swanky touch sensitive controls; Crisp reproduction with the ability to pick out individual instruments and really enjoy different musical arrangements; Comes with FM radio;
  • Bass heavy tracks sound hollow; Remote cheaply built; A bit inflexible in terms of audio; Pricing may put off some

  • Looks beautiful; sound quality is superb at lower volumes
  • Some distortion and vibration at high volumes; remote feels a bit cheap, $799 (DAB); $599 standard
  • If you think I’ve been overly critical in reviewing the Geneva, you’re absolutely right. I was expecting a perfect beside solution here. And after all that, it does come extremely close. It looks brilliant, sounds amazing (for the most part) and is inc...

  • Stylish design; Solid construction; Motorised dock cover
  • What happens when the motorised dock dies?; Bass/treble controls don't alter much; No iPhone support

  • Clear, detailed, punchy sound, Agile and precise timing, Excellent build quality, Intuitive controls, Clock radio features are a bonus
  • No USB charging port
  • We're impressed with this Geneva Speaker. Some rival speakers offer more extensive connectivity, but the Geneva Model S Wireless DAB+ cuts its own niche with clock radio features accompanying the universal Bluetooth connection. And with such superb sou...

  Published: 2010-10-30, Author: Gordon , review by: trustedreviews.com

  • Lacks bass, Inflexible
  • The Model S is an extremely sophisticated dock full of design touches that will please owners and delight visitors. Performance will divide opinion based on your musical leanings and bass heads need not apply, but there are few sharper, more precise docks...
