Cue Acoustics Cue Radio Model R1 - Black

There are many radios with iPod docks. Cue Acoustics has managed to design one that delivers superior sound and loudness. The Cue R1 is a clock radio that lets you choose wake up to iPod, iPhone, or AM/FM radio, or buzzer. Sure, the R1 has a great design too. The real value is the best possible sound performance. This radio is also designed and assembled in the USA.

R1 offers intuitive and simple use with Simple User Controls. With just 3 knobs you can control every function of the Model r1. The Navigation dial (the larger one in the middle) allows you to scroll through menus, and push to select an item. The Mode knob is used to choose a sound source or enter the Setup mode to set various preferences. The Volume knob adjusts output level, and turns the r1 on or off when pressed. In iPod Mode, touch controls illuminate around the Navigation dial which allow for easy music navigation on your iPod or iPhone.

The Model r1's contemporary, sophisticated design complements any decor and its compact size allows it to fit easily on almost any table, shelf, or desk. By adding the optional Cue Speaker Model s1, the r1 is transformed into a true stereo system. Since the s1 is a separate unit, you can set them apart and allow for the left and right channels to act independently. This provides a deep, immersive sound that is not possible with two speakers placed close together in a single unit. You achieve a much wider field of sonic dispersion in your room or home.

The dock on the Model r1 charges and plays most generations of iPod and iPhone. It is fully integrated into the design of the r1 not a separate unit or an add-on like some other brands offer. When an iPod or iPhone is docked and the r1 is in iPod mode, four iPod-like touch controls illuminate around the Navigation dial: Menu, Fast Forward/Next, Play/Pause, and Rewind/Previous. You can choose to have the iPod menus, now-playing info etc. appear
