With sophisticated looks, the SXT fits comfortably into any office or living environment. Click to enlarge.

A true two-way system, the iGroove SXT achieves accurate, detailed sound by way of dual 2.5-inch woofers in a ported enclosure, premium crossovers, and dual 3/4-inch MicroTractrix Horn-loaded tweeters. Klipsch is one of the only companies in the iPod speaker category to utilize horn technology, a design that delivers lifelike sound as well as produces more output using less energy.

The iGroove SXT accepts and charges any iPod with a 30-pin connector. Universal well inserts are included to securely dock assorted iPod models. The shuffle and other audio devices connect via a rear 3.5-mm auxiliary input, while an S-video output lets you view videos on external monitors. Enjoy your favorite clips and photos on the big screen.

Please note: The video output function of the iGroove SXT is not compatible with the 3rd generation iPod nano, the 6th generation iPod classic, the iPhone (1G, 3G), or the iPod touch (1G, 2G).

1 out of 5 stars Not for use with Nano Chromatic   January 6, 2009
BB (OR)
Does not recharge the Nano and drains the battery very fast.
But the speakers themselves are nice and clear.



5 out of 5 stars This unit will charge the iTouch 1G   January 6, 2009
Tandy K. Bozeman (Lake Almanor CA)
For clarification, Amazon Tech Reps confirm that this unit works with the iTouch First Generation (1G). As several other reviewers have noted, this unit will not charge the iTouch 2nd Generation (2G).

If you have an iTouch 1G, the Gold Box deal is an excellent price.



4 out of 5 stars Cannot get it to Charge IPOD Touch   January 6, 2009

This unit packs a wallop of sound! I would have given it five stars but we have been unable to charge our IPOD Touch with it.


5 out of 5 stars As Good as my Bose!   January 6, 2009

I bought this for work. I'm a Dementia nurse and music is the best "drug" for my patients. The sound from this machine is exceptional. I have my Bose dock at home and I'm not sure which one I prefer.

Just the other day a very confused resident ..... stopped for a moment ..... looked up and said, "Oh my that's beautiful music." Well worth the money.

Bought this for $69.99 during the deal of the day sale, now it's on a lightning sale for $70.00 - must be on sale so often because it's not fully compatable with most of the newer ipods or iphones.

Regardless of that, it BROKE in the first week of use - somehow the internal electronics shorted out and it went to FULL VOLUME, sounded like the speakers blew out so we un-plugged it. The controls on top of the unit never worked again after that so we sent it in for refund.

I would not suggest buying this for anyone with newer apple hardware. I would not suggest buying this for anyone who wants a powered speaker setup that will last longer than a week.
