Perfect for what they're designed for [Posted on 2006-06-15] I think these speakers are great. They may not have the richness of other portable systems, but the other portable systems are much bulkier. I can take these to the beach and listen to my ipod (nano) all day on 4 AA high capacity Sony rechargeable batteries. I can throw them in my suitcase and take them on business trips. I don't need to take my ipod out of it's case to plug them in either. The other systems won't let the ipod fit with the case on. The sound is good and perfect for a hotel/small room. On the beach the sound is directed towards me and isn't loud enough to bother other people. All in all a good buy and I recommend them for anyone looking for an extremely portable speaker system that sounds good. If I had one complaint, it would be that the bass isn't that strong, but...that's part of the deal with such a small system.
PRETTY IMPRESSIVE [Posted on 2007-03-08] PLEASANTLY SURPRISED BY THE SOUND. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS TO OTHERS WHO ARE INTERESTED. READING REVIEWS ON THIS PRODUCT, I WAS NOT EXPECTING MUCH FROM THE BASS SOUND. AFTER HEARING IT , THAT STILL HOLDS TRUE.
Good little travel speakers [Posted on 2007-04-16] We bought these for a family vacation, and they worked very well for a small package. I wouldn't say that they're good for someone looking for a bass pumping tailgate music package, but for our kids to watch a movie on the video iPod or listen to some bedtime tunes they were more than adequate. The internal cord storage is a nice feature, and they will work passably well without any batteries installed (just using the headphone driver power), but much better with the batteries. The cord storage cover also doubles as a nice little stand. All in all, better than a laptop's speakers and nicely portable. Highly recommended.
The case is made of flimsy cheap plastic [Posted on 2007-04-17] To get the best performance from these so-so speakers, you must fold out the stand. The stand's hinge is made of cheap plastic and will break after a few uses. The plug at the end of the cable which hooks to the PC, is stored in the battery compartment. The plastic lip which should hold the compartment closed is made of similar shoddy material - poorly designed, which will break after a couple of months. After that, every time you take the speakers out of their cheap bag, the battery cover flies open and spill your batteries all over. Sony should be ashamed to put their name of this product.
Portable Speakers - Adequate for my job [Posted on 2007-07-09] The Sony SRS-T88 speakers are reasonably compact, offer BOTH battery and AC poser options and deliver reasonable audio for my purposes. I am a learning musician that has a day job as a traveling consultant. These speakers are part of my remote jamming and lesson system.
