Amazon.com Product Description
Set your music free as only JBL can do it with the On Stage II iPod speaker system. The On Stage II is a compact yet powerful high-performance sound system that fills your room with clear, accurate sound and all the volume you (and your friends and neighbors) can handle. Users will dig the easy-to-use touch controls, with volume and mute buttons that respond with just a hint of pressure. The On Stage II's wireless remote, meanwhile, lets you control your music from up to 50 feet in any direction, even through walls. It's a must for parties, backyard barbecues, and any other occasion in which you want to enjoy your full iPod library out loud.

The On Stage II incorporates the Apple iPod universal dock adapter, which is compatible with most docking versions of the iPod, including the mini, nano, and 5G versions (excepting the iPod shuffle). The system isn't restricted to iPods, however, as it also includes a stereo mini-jack connection that works with MP3 players, portable CD players, desktop and laptop computers, and even satellite radio receivers. And thanks to the system's OnePoint design, you can charge and sync your iPod without connecting it directly to a computer. Instead, the OnePoint connectors do the work for you, so you can add new songs from iTunes easily and efficiently.

The On Stage II's powerful sound is the real highlight, however. The system includes four aluminum-domed Odyssey transducers driven by powerful neodymium magnets to produce a full, rich frequency response that extends from the lowest bass to the highest highs. The On Stage II also employs computer-optimized equalization to provide a rich, complete sound stage, along with optimized compression topology to ensure clean, accurate sound at high output levels. Other details include a lightweight frame that's easy to transport, an auxiliary audio input cable, and surface-gripping rubber feet that provide a stable platform on most surfaces.

The On Stage II measures 7 inches in diameter and 2 inches tall and is backed by a one-year warranty.

Customer Reviews

Simplicity in a small package4
Executive summary: The JBL system is tiny, intuitive to operate and has superb sound. It is very reasonably priced when compared with the Bose system which prices out at more than $300. The remote control could be improved by allowing the user to operate the ipod menus from the remote.

I bought this system to relieve the burden of running itunes on my pc all day long. Itunes is a ram eater and was forcing me to reboot several times a day particularly when I had multiple applications running together with itunes. Windows and apple products still don't play nice together all the time.

The JBL Onstage 2 system is elegant, simple to use and has superb sound for such a small form factor. It's in my cube and I can't crank it up during the day; but at low volume it is remarkably clear for treble, bass and midrange tones. You'll probably want to use the ipod equalizer function to improve the sound. It can get a little muddy without the EQ turned on.

The remote control works from a distance of 50 feet and is completely intuitive. The remote could be improved by allowing the user to operate all of the ipod menu controls from the remote. Choosing playlists, genres, or altering system settings must be performed from the ipod itself.

Small, pretty and great sound4
I wanted something to be able to play my IPOD while I work in the kitchen, without a mess of speakers and wires. This is compact with tremendous sound, no set-up involved at all... just plug it in, insert IPOD, enjoy.

Great product!

Great Sound and Wonderfully Compact5
I bought the JBL On Stage II speaker just yesterday and tried it out last night. I am highly impressed with the sound quality. It is a small speaker that gives off comparable quality to that of a Bose speaker. Of course it isn't a Bose but JBL made a fantastic speaker at more than half the price. This speaker is a Harmon product (an audio specialty company) so it's good quality and delivers an impressive sound. I'd buy it all over again!
