iLuv i177 iPod clock radio
(The following summary refers to both the iLuv 177 and the JBL On Time; see our full review of both at the link below.)
Both the iLuv i177 and JBL On Time are nice clock radios, and each has strengths and weaknesses. In short: If it's an alarm clock you want, the iLuv i77 is the best choice and includes nice extras such as a remote and an iPod shuffle port. If you desire something more akin to a small stereo, with the added benefit of a clock and alarm, go with the On Time. Overall, I found the iLuv to be a better value, while the On Time had far superior sound. Yet, while I would highly recommend the iLuv -- as an alarm clock -- I can't say the same about the On Time; although it performs well as both a clock and a stereo, it doesn't truly excel at either. --Mathew Honan
