nice wired/wireless speaker, with detachable bluetooth headset [Posted on 2007-07-26]
received from mail today
it looks like a regular travel speaker, but when I open the center door, see a receiver, which can be used as headset for cellphone
listen the audio from my pda (HX2495), the clip can attach on my collar, plug in my earphones, the sound is good, less dropoff than other wireless headphones, it has a connector on the bottom, that is used for charging when put back to speaker unit
the speaker unit can also be used as wired speaker, the sound is pretty good, with decent bass consider the speaker size
however, when I turn the speaker volume to higher, the sound gets cracked till you turn all the way back down
it has a cap for the receiver to cover the connector, but it gets lost easily (I lost it even after opened the box), and Altec should sell the replacement cap)
I personally like this wireless travel speaker, very good concept (detachable stand-alone headset receiver), and good sound, $100 is still worth
Distorted sound sometimes a problem [Posted on 2007-11-26]
I like everything about it except the speakers distort horribly if you turn the volume up. I read reviews that indicated distortion at high volume, and I would expect distortion because of the speaker's small size, but these speakers seem to do it excessively. Sometimes the volume level needed to eliminate distortion is not adequate enough to be heard clearly. I only recommend these speakers because I'm not sure better ones are on the market, considering the few options available for people in the market for bluetooth speakers.
nice !! [Posted on 2008-04-18]
A little distortion but good sound, I paired with my SE K790a and it works fine.
Awesome Product, amazing value for money at the current price of $30 [Posted on 2008-05-25]
These were on my wish list from the time they were available for $150. But then I was surprised to see them for $30.
You can do a whole lot of things with these! A geeks dream come true!
About the Speakers:
Highs: B
Mids: B
Bass: B
I bought these speakers so that I could keep them in my bathroom and stream bluetooth audio from my laptop or my Windows Mobile 5 hp iPAQ rw6828.
They work like a dream, no problems at all. They support 4 basic profiles:
Audio Sink
Handsfree Telephony
Headset
Remote Control
They come with connections galore:
The speaker has a line in and a dock for the bluetooth handsfree.
The bluetooth handsfree has a built in mic & a 3.5mm audio out... which is the best part as I can connect any speaker system or earphone to it!!!
The bluetooth handsfree can be charged while on the dock, by the AC adapter or a separate USB adapter which is included!!! It also has remote control ... i.e. you can adjust the volume, change tracks, play/pause remotely e.g. Im in my bathroom and my laptop's in my living room ... I can control the media player with these basic controls remotely via bluetooth!!!
If you get a phone call, it pauses the player and you can recieve the phone call using the handsfree, and it also has other controls like call mute, etc.
The sound quality and loudness is more than enough for my bathroom. You need to tweak the equalizer settings to get the right amount of bass and perfect levels of mids and highs. For speakers of their size (which run on batteries too!!!) the 3D quality and fidelity is good enough.
And yeah ... they come with decent quality stereo earphones too! ... I'm amazed how Altec is giving away so much for $30 and at some places for as low as $18!!!
Does the job nicely [Posted on 2008-06-18]
This unit is very sleek, very straightforward, and it works! I wanted a bluetooth stereo headset for my cell phone, and I am happy I chose this. I like that it's not a bulky headset that looks obvious; rather I can use any little earbuds I like (comes with a pair) and just plug them in to the receiver unit. You need to clip the unit on to a pocket or whatever but it's very light. It's the same as having a little iPod shuffle clipped somewhere. I find the range just fine, seems to be around four to six metres so if your phone is in your pocket or purse or on your desk, it works beautifully. The bonus in this for me was the external speaker - I really only wanted the bluetooth earphones but I'm using the external speaker a lot! The sound quality is good. It's not full sized sound, but I wasn't expecting that. It sounds very nice and it is incredibly portable. I would not want to have paid the $120 it sold for originally in Canada, but with the deal I got on Amazon I am completely thrilled with it!
