Cheap Audio for any Gadget

There is an assumption that the speaker dock for IOS devices such as iPod, iPhone and iPad are usually sold at high prices. But LG prove how wrong these assumptions through its newest product, LG ND4520, the price is quite affordable. 

Concept and Design
 LG ND4520 will greet you with a beautiful and modern design. Black and white color combination is quite neutral to decorate a living room or den that concept art deco or modern minimalist. The design looks similar to the widening of a short sound bar, the difference has been loading dock for the IOS device from iPhone, iPod to iPad large.To keep the looks to keep it minimalistic, LG only provides three key pieces: power, volume and function. "Was not complete? Bluetooth Remote LG also provides LG Bluetooth Remote application that can be used on Android devices and IOS you. One thing that is interesting from this dock is the availability of the battery slot. Yes, you can choose the electric current flowing directly through the outlet or if the mobile is able to rely on 6 AA batteries to provide electric power intake. 
 

Features 
As mentioned above, this dock connectivity are complete and practical. Example, to pair it with the IOS device, you just drove it on the dock instantly available. Or you can also connect a variety of devices ranging from smartphones to tablet PC using a Bluetooth connection has.The pairing process can be implemented in a short time. Do not have a music player gadget? Relax, you can play music stored in the flash via a USB port. 
Given the remote has to offer at least the default settings, LG provides another solution. You can download the free application, the LG Bluetooth Remote, which can conjure IOS devices, smartphones and Android-based tablet PC with a remote Bluetooth connection. 
I tried the Android version can be downloaded free through Google's Play. And turns with this application, the true ability of the new dock is visible from LG. Android smartphone as a remote, I can control the speaker dock with more flexibility.There are several setting options that are only accessible via Android applications. For example, a preset sound effect that can not be set in the remote load, but can be maximized only through the application of LG Bluetooth Remote. 
In addition, I also enjoy additional features such as seeing his playlist of songs that are very useful if you're listening to songs through the USB port, switching modes only through the touch of a finger, and enjoy a number of preset sound effects (Normal, POP, Classic, Rock, Jazz) is shown to improve sound quality. So make sure you use this application if you already have the LG ND4520. 
 

Performance 
On the inside, LG pinned two powerful 10 watt driver to boost the sound performance of your IOS device or smartphone. The results of the resulting sound is quite good for all types of music with the composition of a balanced bass and treble. For volume, loud enough to fill the room when used as a medium sized bedroom or den.For those of you who like to enjoy music with loud bass thumping, audio may not hit the dock. Because the bass thump produced quite ordinary. But conversely, if you like to listen to the songs genre of pop, rock, jazz or acoustic, audio dock is still reliable with quality mid and treble are comfortable in the ear.With the availability of preset EQ options are available, you can also feel better sound performance although it will be more complete if the present custom EQ option that can be set and adjusted by the user desires. 
 

Conclusion 
Modern and minimalist design, plus full connectivity and not just for Apple devices only, making this device ideal for bedside or placed in your workspace.The results sound offered is nothing special, but it is helpful to preset EQ options are available. Even LG ND4520 also be taken away, given this dock can also use AA batteries as a power source. Supported a relatively affordable price tag (about $135), LG ND4520 worth considering as an option to dock audio devices. 
 

Pros:

  • Affordable price 
  • The sound quality is quite good for its classOption
