How's the sound quality? I heard Y cable sound quality is bad. Also, will I be able to have control on the ipod/iphone, like change songs/playlists

Sound quality could be better, I guess this is related with poor terminals' contact. While I have been able to change songs, playlist changes and other functions mud be done directly in the device.

I don't have an issue with the bass setting on mine. Have you checked the EQ on your iPod? Make sure it's not on Super Bass. Or, you can make sure you lighten up the bass setting.

That sounds good. I am in the process of reripping the CDs that are WMA's - I knew the Ipod wouldn't play them, and I was worried about the sound quality with converted files. Thanks for the reply!

I did download KLIPSCH AIR (free) from Apps Store accessible through my IPAD (It's still there, right now today). Iused that app to replace the plain-old vanilla KLIPSCH app that come with my G-17, which became useless when I updated IOS 8. The new app I downloaded works just hunky-dory, even with IOS 8.02. That's how it worked-out for me. I agree: Klipsch online customer service DO SUCK! It's why I just decided to punt and look in apple App store

There are severe engineering "flaws" which greatly affect the audio quality on the 6th gen classic. It has to do with the cirrus dac which is being used in the newer ipods. im not sure when or if apple has fixed or intends to fix this problem, but until something is done about it, i intend to stick with my 5.5g ipod.

I just got the large one and let me just put this out there in case someone else has this problem. I paired this with my iphone and it wasn't playing music through it. So I "forgot" the speaker on my iphone. Turned the speaker off and back on and then held the "menu" button down to get it into pairing mode again and repaired the two and it started working fine. It would previously take calls and play them through the speaker, but not music. Not sure where the problem was, but it seems to be resolved.Sound quality and volume are pretty good for the money I paid. It feels like it's built sturdy and looks good. Haven't tried the aux out yet. I just got the large one and let me just put this out there in case someone else has this problem. I paired this with my iphone and it wasn't playing music through it.

I use it with my Iphone. It is a mixed blessing. On the media I ripped with EAC or dBPoweramp, the music sounds fantastic. On commercially acquired media, you are acutely aware of the missing dynamics.

Paid upgrade that is a free service before, I will not be surprise if they remove all features slowly and put them to paid upgrade. The 4.4.6 iOs app on iPhone can't even play mp3.

I'm guessing it might depend on the device? I can only speak for the iPhone 5 that I have, music quality is great, bass could be better, but crisp sound. As for talking, they can barely hear you and it's muffled sound both ways so not so good quality for phone use.

I have an iPhone and I can control the volume either by the music play list on my phone or through the phone volume control. If you have degraded low bit rate music it will play low for that song. I need to clean up my music selection.

The only way to play your music would be with a AUX connection. USB will not work with iPhone or iPod. I wasn't happy about it.

I just bought this for my 13 year old daughter and can't get it to play her iPhone 4. Is there a trick to it? When the iPhone is plugged in I can see that it is charging but there's no sound at all.

Because later model iPods/iPhones and iOS versions have shown compatibility problems. I connect mine via aux input to airport streaming audio from iTunes/computer. If you want to play audio directly from dock, you may have problems

Thanks for the info. I ended up keeping my 1st gen & doing the upgrade for $10. I love it! After using it the speaker seems like it would be worthless & it is very easier to adjust the volume anyway.

Anything that plays through my ipod or cell phonphone plays great...except u can't control it remotely through the radio controls...great sound though..

You can skip songs or whatever you have on your ipod/iphones/ipad. It just skips songs. I have one and it works excellent with my factory sound system

The volume buttons are also for previous and next song, depending on how long you press the button. They work well on my android phone, but I can't say about ios. Try contacting them directly, they've been very engaged with me so far.
