Our take on the Polk Audio miDock Portfolio

This portable speaker system from Polk Audio makes a great travel companion for your docking iPod. With the miDock Portfolio, you just fold down the back, drop in your player, and you're ready to start enjoying your tunes. This system is small enough to carry in a briefcase or bag, yet it produces surprisingly big, full sound thanks to a built-in high-efficiency digital amplifier.

When connected to AC power, the miDock recharges your iPod's battery. And you can use the system just about anywhere — it can give you up to 8 hours of continuous play from four "AA" batteries, sold separately. The system folds flat for travel, and comes with its own protective carry bag.

Good, but...

Written By Leo, Tehachapi, CA on Sunday, January 25, 2009
 
Sounds good and looks good.

Doesn't charge the iPod Nano when docked. The description on the website didn't mention that. I found out when I read the box.

Well Done

Written By takpro, Taylors, SC on Thursday, August 07, 2008
 
The cottage industry around the iPod continues to grow. This is a well thought-out product. Simple and well engineered. Yes, it could use a little more volume and a remote would have been nice. But, all-in-all, worth the money.

Great for iPod Users

Written By Rhys, Virginia Beach, VA on Saturday, May 31, 2008
 
This piece of gear is surprisingly effective. The sound is good for such small speakers and it is handy to keep the iPod charged at all times.
Worth the money.

OK

Written By Scott, Wilkeboro, NC on Wednesday, February 27, 2008
 
I like everything about the Midock portfolio, except for the sound. It's ok. I hate to rate it too bad since I don't have anything else to compare it to. But for almost $90, I was somewhat disappointed. If you're looking for a simple alternative to having to use the ear buds, then it's great. Just don't expect a great amount of volume or bass. Definitely nothing to "rock out" with, but I guess it serves its purpose.

I like it!!!!!!!!!!

Written By Curtis, Durango, CO on Tuesday, February 05, 2008
 
This is a nice little Ipod dock that fits nicely on your desk. Nice sound. I would like better bass, but what do you want from 1" drivers. Still a good buy
