Sturdy and Loud, Perfect for the Party (Just Don't Invite the Audiophiles)
By D. R. Jeanclerc
The Memorex Party Cube is a docking boombox designed to pair up with a range of Apple iPod and iPhone products. It also offers its own built-in CD and AM/FM tuner sources. Its compact design, sturdy build and rechargeable battery make it a great option for bringing your music on-the-go. It also provides lots of sound thanks to its multi-directional speaker array, although the range of frequencies (especially low-end) is limited.The Party Cube is roughly the size of a four-slice toaster and easy to carry thanks to its folding handle. It is made from heavy-duty plastic that feels like it would stand up to lots of jostling with minimal scratches and scuffs. The bottom of the unit is slightly rubberized for some grip - this would be useful for keeping it in place while in motion on boats and RVs. A very nice feature is that it carries its own built-in rechargeable Lithium Ion batteries, which means that it should hold a charge even if it's been shelved for some time. This feature further suits the Party Cube for on-the-fly use whenever you're heading out to the park or the beach.The controls are simple and straightforward (play/pause/stop/track/skip/etc.), but in order to accommodate the variety of Apple products that it can dock with, there are some clear omissions. For example, when docking my iPod, I was surprised to see that there is no means for navigating the menus or selecting albums/playlists. In order to do so, you have to use the actual controls on the face of the iPod. The Party Cube does come with an adjustable backing behind the dock so that you can press the portable's buttons without worrying about bending the connection pins. I was surprised to see that the Party Cube did not come with any sort of remote control, which should have been included in order to get the most utility out of its strengths.Soundwise, the Party Cube provided a mixed bag: it is plenty loud and easy to hear in all directions, but sound quality was not terribly impressive. The omnidirectional array of speakers makes it great for picnics or grilling on the deck - wherever you place it, everyone is hearing the same sound. Treble was not quite tinny but definitely a bit flat; bass was virtually non-existent due to the small size of the speaker cones. However, the Party Cube does provide a lot of amplification power, making it very well-suited to outdoor use. Assuming that you're not looking for perfect fidelity when using the Party Cube, the deficiencies in sound quality are an acceptable trade-off for the size of the unit.PROS* Sturdy build and compact size make it ideal for travel and outdoor use* Omnidirectional speakers and ample volume give it long range* Built-in rechargeable LiON battery means its always ready to go* Compatible with a variety of Apple iProductsCONS* So-so sound quality* Lack of iPod/iPhone control built in; no remote controlWith so many dockable speaker products crowing the Apple market, the Party Cube stands out as a great option for travel and outdoor use. Whether you boat or camp frequently, or if you're just looking for something that's always ready to throw tunes way down the beach, this is highly recommended.

Awesome and amazing sound, appearance, size, etc, etc. . . .
By Getitright
This is an amazing, small sized, but BIG sound/BIG performance "speaker" for your iPod! Unlike most others in this price range, it includes a cd player and fm/am! It is so easy to take anywhere, too, and even tho I got so I could to dock my iPod in something great looking WITH SPEAKERS, I was amazed at all the extra features it has for the money over the other "docking station" type sound system stuff I searched thru. The price is very competitive especially because it offers so much more functionality. Best, for me, is the small size because it fits my headboard. Nope, don't think you can do better than this if you need a blaster for all your fave tunes!

Love the design and features but wish it had better sound quality
By d bucci
Nicely designed, sleek and sturdy I do love the looks, versatility and portability of the Party Cube but the sound quality is not what I expected/hoped from a player in this price range. There is very little treble and even less bass so the music sounds flat. It does do a decent job of playing tunes for background though. The multi-directional speakers are great for a large area and there is plenty of volume capability. I like the gripper feet so the Cube stays put even on a slick surface. FM reception is spotty if the included antenna wire is not attached. A remote control even just for volume and skipping a track is missed.
