I am looking for a docking station/speaker system the will allow me to listen to Sirius radio with my iPhone?
Everything I find in the stores wants to put my phone into airplane mode. This doesn’t allow me listen to Sirius/XM via my phone. Does anyone know of anything out there? Any suggestions would be great.

Cyber Acoustics Portable Digital Docking Speaker Review
You will love with this docking system. After looked and read feedback on several of the system, I find that this one had a lot of more positive feedback than the others on the market. The sound is really good for its size in a fairly large room. The bass could definitely be better. Sound is crisp and clear.
These speakers have great sound for their size. If you’re looking to spend this amount on speakers, then they are great. I listen to dance music when I am travelling and the sound is good when it’s played reasonably loud.
If you bought this to use with your iPhone 3G, then when you plug it in, the 3G displays a message that the product is not designed to work with the iPhone, and asks if you want to enable airplane mode to avoid interference.
After you dismiss the dialog, the unit will charge and the speakers will work – the problem is, whenever your phone sends or receives from a cell tower, the interference is mind-boggling loud and overpowers whatever is on the speakers – it is truly unusable when the cell service is on.
The docking connector is easy to use and looks sturdier than some I’ve seen, and it accepts the Apple universal docking inserts so you can get an insert to fit any iOS device Apple’s ever sold. The controls are dead simple to use, just power and volume up / volume down, and the sound quality is much better than you would expect for such a small and inexpensive unit. As a bonus, it will run on batteries (without charging the iPod) if you need it to be portable.
It’s definitely a bare – bones feature set. No remote control, no ability to switch playlists or tracks from the unit itself without using the iPod controls, no fancy features of any kind. But if all you are looking for is a small, inexpensive, easy to use, portable charging speaker dock for an iOS device, the Cyber Acoustics seems to be an excellent choice.
