Summary: You get what you pay for but in this case....
Comment: You get what you pay for but in this case I was in the right place at the right time!
I purchased this product when it was twenty-five dollars and as always thought... how good could it be at this price?
This is my third attempt at finding a portable speaker; we've started to travel a little and it's nice to have your own tunes handy.
While it's true you have to adjust the volume this is a great little system.
At the present price of fifty dollars it's a great buy!
I know for some people they expect the concert experiance so buy a bose system but if your looking for something simple, portable and at a good price then this might be what your looking for. I'm going to watch this product and if it drops to that twenty dollar price again I'll buy a second unit!
Good luck!

Summary: Itouch/Iphone owners beware
Comment: To be completely honest, I bought this speaker for its low price. I also got what I paid for!

Pros:
1. Looks cool.

2. Comparatively low price.

3. The A/V port in the back allows you to hook up another speaker system to get stereo sound(see below).


Cons:
1. Will not control an Iphone/Itouch. Only the controls for sound work(loudness bass/treble). Though it will play music from it.

2. Not Stereo. Left channel only, they expect you to buy an identical looking speaker for the right channel. Even the it is only 2.0 instead of 2.1.

3. Sound requires a little bit of tweaking in order to get it to sound OK.

Summary: iPod Remote Speaker System
Comment: I purchased this item on sale for $20 at Amazon and use it on the patio and in the garage. The case is made of shiny black plastic, the grill is silver metal, and the power brick is about 2"x2"x2" and plugs into the back.

It has plenty of volume and sound quality for outdoors (sitting on back porch or cleaning garage/car). It's also lightweight and easily portable for moving about. I agree the sound isn't perfect as noted in some other reviews, but it does not distort and it's good for how I use it.

Catch it on sale and you can't go wrong, it's just a speaker with a dock and power, but it does very well for what it was designed.

Summary: I would spend a little more for better sound
Comment: This may be fine if you are used to listening to an alarm clock radio, but if you listen to higher quality stereo, you will be disappointed. It is definitely flat sounding. I think the quality is equal to the price.

Summary: Great sound for a little box!
Comment: Surprisingly, this little speaker sounds pretty decent in our large kitchen/great room combination. I bought it back in February for only $20, but definitely think it's worth the $37.99 that Amazon is charging right now. Speaking of charging, was I amazed to discover that this unit DOES charge my new iPod Touch (2nd generation)! It was my understanding that it would allow the Touch to connect and play, but not charge at the same time--so this was a great surprise. It was my intention to give this as a gift but decided to keep it instead, and now I'm searching for an iHome alarm clock for our bedroom for christmas.
