Erm, no they don't - both the B&W Zeppelin Mini and the Bose SoundDock II cost £250. In both cases we'd pay the slight premium, as you get a true lift in performance over the Yamaha.
But the Yamaha remains an excellent product, with wireless capabilities the others don't offer; that may matter more to some people, which is why we always a) urge you try before you buy and b) say that four-star products may suit you better than five-star products if they offer a particular feature/style/sound you're after.
I don't get it. The competitors you mention don't cost a few bucks more, but hundred pounds more. That is not a fair competition fellows. No reason at all to downgrade this product one star.

Have bought one for Xmas. Presumably signal from Ipod using radio will be decent?
Can you tell me how the Yamaha PDX-50 can double up as an extra speaker for a TV or computer? I have one and cant figure it out.

would you consider the Klipsch igroove HG at around a similar price a better buy?
yes but now the Yamaha is now available for less than 80 quid, surely that makes it outstanding value!
