Sounds very nice... [Posted on 2008-05-15]
This has good sound and does amplify the volume some, wish it had a little more volume.
Check This Out If You're Into Cycling [Posted on 2008-06-04]
I recently bought a road bike and have been getting into cycling more. I saw other people had sound systems rigged up and had an old mp3 player that I hadn't used in a couple of years. I made sure that the player still worked then ordered this speaker. The results were awesome! It's light, small and sounds pretty good. I zip tied mine to my top cross bar - make sure you do not zip tie your brake line with it - it will affect your rear brake!!! What's nice about having it on your cross bar is the easy access to the volume and on/off controls. My wife will probably get one for her bike now. Hope this review helps.
Why this is better than a USB-powered device... [Posted on 2008-06-05]
Most laptop/portable speakers these days are USB powered. I very specifically didn't want that. I do a lot of memory-intensive PC work and having any extra devices initiating on USB can cause unpredictable problems. So I needed something that worked via the headphones port.
This little set is great for so many reasons. Aside from the non-USB, you can choose between battery and AC power, so it's very flexible. Because it's a standard 3.5mm cable, you can use it with your iPod, iPhone, MP3 player, etc. That flexibility made it an ideal choice. The unit is lightweight, has a great travel pouch, and the sound quality is better than I expected in a unit this small.
The only downside for me, and why I dropped a star on the rating, is that the unit's balance is pretty precarious. It pretty much only balances on a completely level and stable surface. I usually wind up using it set on its back, rather than up on it's miniscule balance point.
Overall, it's a great product and really meets my needs.
Bad sound - no bass [Posted on 2008-06-05]
The sound quality is so bad...especially when volume level is increased...no equalizer options so can't adjust the bass, treble etc.,
No holes to hang somewhere....poor design so it just rolls out if I try to place in a table....And it looks like eyes of some alien from mars....so bright blue light, disturbing eyes at night...pluses are quick delivery and cheap cost....I am using it to hear audio books...(and for music I bought an some other product).....Best option is to put some +20$ and go for some popular + good speakers available in the market...If you want to hear good music with decent bass + treble + balance...it is not worth...
Perfect for my needs [Posted on 2008-07-08]
I was looking for something cheap to take to the beach and attach to my MP3 player. This fit the bill ($20), was light, and the volume went high enough without too much distortion. Just be realistic with your expectations...
