Jensen JiMS-195

$80.00 Released January, 2009

The Pros:Capable of producing enough volume to fill a smaller room. Remote control has a decent range and is fully featured. Small footprint takes up very little room on a desk or nightstand.

The Cons:LCD display is small and set at an odd angle, making it very difficult to read at any distance. Clock and alarm can't be set without the remote, so don't lose it. Alarm doesn't allow you to wake from iPod music, only its own alarm sound.
