4 out of 5 stars Good portable speaker system   August 24, 2008

This is a nice looking, fairly small portable speaker system. The sound is very good for its size: don't expect full speaker quality. The speakers look nice and will fit in most computer bags. They come with a thin storage sack which holds the speakers, but it takes a lot effort to put the AC adaptor and audio input cable in the sack with the speakers. Probably not the thing to do as it stretches the bag. All in all, a good value if you can find them for under $50.


3 out of 5 stars Tiny size and tiny sound. Buy computer speakers   August 22, 2008

This speaker system is tiny. Read the specifications; it is only 7 inches wide. It does, however, have a nice solid feel and I like how it opens and closes.

It costs $10 more than other speaker systems like the Logitech X-240 2.1 Speakers. I bought it anyway because it is JBL and I wanted quality.

The sound is tiny. No bass at all. If you try to make it very loud so two people can have fun, the sound completely clips out. Not very fun. Small sound.

In retrospect, I wish I had purchased something with a little more punch instead of a tiny toy with tiny sound that is over-priced.

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful Sounding AND Looking.   August 18, 2008

Absolutely wonderful speakers. I've had two different sets of speakers before (for my iPod and PSP) but neither of them came anywhere close to as nice as this one. They sound wonderful, so good that I've even been using them with my laptop, because the sound better then it's built-in speaker system. The volume level is very good.It fills my needs perfectly. While I seriously doubt it would musically will a room full of talking people, it will easily fill a quiet room. And at a setting such as around a campfire, small outside party, or a picnic, this unit would be provide more than enough volume.

And as for the sound quality, I was very pleasantly surprised. I was expecting quality comparable to the old Logitech or Creative speaker sets I used to have, but these speakers are several levels better. Like I said earlier, I will sometimes use these with my laptop, but those old speakers weren't even as good as my laptop speakers. I simply can hardly wait to go to an out door party and provide my entire 4000+ song collection in the excellent quality these speakers provide.

And as for appearance, this thing is absolutely beautiful, and extremely slick, either while open for use, or closed for stowage. The slight curvature is excellent design choice, allowing the cords to pass underneath the unit unhindered. The curvature also adds that much more to the elegant appearance of the design, as well.

Now,there is ONE question that I simply HAVE to ask! What is that apparatus connecting the PSP to the speakers in that certain picture above??!! I've been looking EVERYWHERE for it, and I just can't find it. If I could find out what it was I would buy it in a heartbeat, but I simply can't find it anywhere.If anyone know what it is, please leave a post here,or something, anything, to let everyone know what that device is. It would be absolutely perfect for watching movies on a PSP while it was attached to an excellent sound system!
