Cambridge SoundWorks Radio CD 745i

Cambridge SoundWorks Radio CD 745i
Right Angle Full Set iPod Base

review

Sure, the Cambridge SoundWorks Radio CD 745i is basically a glorified alarm clock with a steep price. Even so, it's a good-looking, great-sounding CD player/Apple iPod dock, too. In fact, on my tests, the CD 745i offered ample bass, clear treble, and powerful output.

  • # of channels: 2.1
  • Separate subwoofer: No
  • THX certification: No
  • Controller: Wireless

Bottom Line

This iPod dock/CD player/Radio alarm clock from Cambridge SoundWorks sounds great, but is light on the kind of features and built-in iPod compatibility that make the George such a great sound system. The price seems a bit high for what it offers, but it works and it looks nice.

Pros

Impressive sound. Nice amount of low-end thump. Alarm is pretty easy to set. The remote has lots of options.

Cons

iPod features are minimal. Controlling your iPod when there is a CD in the player is confusing. Expensive.
