SONIQ RECEIVES A GOOD RESULT 8.3 OUT OF 10 AT CNET AUSTRALIA
01-02-2010

For an AU$130 iPod dock the sound was surprisingly good. We even hesitate to call it the equal of some docks of years past in the sub-AU$400 category. The unit features two side-facing woofers which means you can get a good spread of sound from anywhere in the room, if not the best stereo sound. We played a number of different genres to it and it handled them all surprisingly well. Life by the Beta Band is a favourite of ours as it features some ultra low bass and can unmask a particularly rattly cabinet. The Soniq handled it well, with plenty of treble detail as well, and while the deepest of bass notes weren't quite audible the unit didn't disintegrate, even at volume.
