Product Description
The 2nd generation CBX-300 CD receiver system is a blend of style, direct iPod integration and superb music performance. The focus has been on providing an accomplished mix of CD, MP3, WMA, iPod and radio playback. It sports a black saran net across the entire frontage, giving it greater appeal wherever you decide to place it. The CBX-300's construction supports exemplary audio fidelity, especially for the low-end frequencies. The design also incorporates speaker developments such as Onkyo's own OMF (Onkyo Micro Fiber) diaphragms and Aero Acoustic Drive technology. OMF is a pure, ultra-fine cotton weave that absorbs vibrations and enables a fast, accurate response. In addition to playing CDs, you can slot your iPod directly into the CBX-300's top-loading dock to access your AAC and MP3 files, podcasts, videos and photos. Unlike the bulk of music systems aimed at incorporating the iPod, this CD receiver system has been designed to deliver serious audio quality and lively music playback. The accompanying remote control gives you more functionality, such as the ability to skip through tracks or switch to shuffle mode. The CBX-300 also includes a video output terminal for output of your iPod's videos or photos. Signal-to-Noise Ratio - Stereo 56 dB IHF-A and Mono 58 dB IHF-A Total Harmonic Distortion - Stereo 0.7% 1 kHz / Mono 0.52% 1 kHz Stereo Separation - 40 dB at 1 kHz Tuning Frequency Range - 530 kHz-1,710 kHz Signal-to-Noise Ratio - 42 dB Total Harmonic Distortion - 1.2% (1 kHz) Frequency Response - 4 Hz-20 kHz Audio Dynamic Range - 96 dB THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) - 0.085% Nominal Impedance - 6-ohms Compatible iPod Models - 5th Generation iPod with Video, 4th Generation iPod with Click Wheel, iPod Photo, iPod Mini, and iPod Nano Dimensions - Width 17 1/8 x Height 5 7/16 x Depth 9 1/8 (435 x 138 x 267 mm) Weight - 9.5 pounds (4.3 kg)

 Great Value Ipod System December 1, 2008
averagepunter (Massachusetts)
I was on the verge of buying a cambridge system for over $100 more, but thought I would give this a go based on the excellent reviews here and elsewhere. Having owned a couple of sub $100 ipod speaker sets, I was a little apprehensive about the likely sound quality of this system that seems to promise a lot at a low price. I am no expert but all I can say is - It Delivers. Bass is more than adequate, and volume loud enough to fill a 25' x 20' room without any distortion. FM reception is great using the supplied indoor antenna. A real plus is the portability of the unit with the easy carry handle. Very, very pleased with this purchase.
Solid Well Designed iPod Player November 30, 2008
moose_of_many_waters (Palo Alto, CA United States)
I bought this item because I was looking for a multi-function iPod player with decent sound that I could sometimes use as an alarm clock. This was the cheapest of the bunch and I've used and liked Onkyo products in the past.
I offer only one cautionary note. Don't even think that this item will replace your home stereo. No portable iPod player will do that. You can only pack so much sound quality in a portable box plus the iPod music files often are 128 mp3s, which don't come close to having decent fidelity. That said, the sound here is more than adequate for listening in a bedroom.
Overall, this is a well designed box and the remote is easy to use. I've put my old 3G iPod in the dock as well as my iPod Touch and they both work fine. Onkyo states up front that the video out on this model is not compatible with iPod Touch videos, but the audio is completely compatible. The ability to play mp3s from a CD is also a nice feature. There are more expensive devices like this out there. I have no idea why you'd spend the extra bucks to buy one. This item is definitely a best buy.
What a Sound ! What a Price! November 28, 2008
Frank Mesto Jr. (brooklyn ny)
Hi all, I just received this EXCELLENT product and can't stop talking about it. I didn't want to spend hundreds more like some of the other popular docks/clock radio, so I gave this one a try . Glad I did, the sound is clear, crisp, and the bass adequate for me. I use this unit for my IPOD and if the bass is not enough I just adjust the equalizer in my Ipod to boost up the bass. I love IPOD dock on the top of the unit and also the remote control for this unit also controls the IPOD! I also love the AM/FM tuner and the CD player as well. It all sounds great! Plus it has a built in handle that makes it very easy to use as a portable devise.
Bottom line, this product compares with the way more expensive units and at this price its a no brainer for me, I LOVE IT!

Fabulous Product November 23, 2008
Oasiswriter (washington, dc)
This is a tremendous value for the money. The sound is terrific, not too bass-heavy, very clear and powerful. I highly recommend it. Build quality, as with all Onkyo products I have owned, is top-notch. I will say that if you are looking for a bedside clock radio, look elsewhere, because the thing is large -- too large for a standard nightstand. I bought it for that purpose and realized that I had to put it across the room on my dresser because it was so large. I could still use it as a clock radio, but I had to use the remote to snooze, which is a bit unnatural. So I kept it as a bedroom CD player, and bought a standard clock radio to wake up to. I am still thrilled with it and could not be happier.
Amazing product November 14, 2008
Jason A. Collier (Waddell, Arizona)
Onkyo has always made good products, but this thing is amazing. I was not prepared for how good this thing sounds. I put my 16gb iPod Nano in and the sounds is really clean and balanced. It is nice to have a few quick EQ settings to adjust the sound if you need to. All my iTunes music is ripped at 320 kbps.
