If you are looking for a boom box to play your devilish music on then this speaker is not for you as the sound volume will not go high enough to annoy the people around you in all directions.

I ordered this travel speaker to plug into my little mp3 player and am very pleased with the sound quality. I listen to lectures and language learning mp3s so I don't need blasting sound. The clarity of the sound is quite good. I do listen to some nasheeds also and the sound quality is good for that also. I can put this at my desk or by my bed to listen as I don't always like putting something in my ears to hear with. The zipper case unzips and I use 2 AA rechargeable batteries. You can easily throw this in a bag to take with you. This was a little bigger than I expected but that is fine. To get a perspective it is about 1 1/2 the size of my open hand.

I love this player/speaker system for my ipod! I got a few on a lark at Christmas last year for the kids as stocking stuffers. Well they turned out to be one of the best finds of all time. My kids (ages 15, 23 & 27) and I get asked all the time about where we got these. The player was great having on the beach this summer, the sound is remarkably good for such a small player and such a low price and it lasts a long time on two double AA batteries. I just put it in a plastic baggie so sand couldn't ruin it. I use it all the time while clean the upstairs in my house where I don't have a docking station as well as outside by the pool. I just bought 4 more to give as gifts this Christmas. You won't be sorry you purchased this item.

This is a GREAT system to have! I use it at work. And since I don't know where I'm going to be working all the time, the clip comes in handy! My friends want one when they see it.

I have this speaker and it works great with my iPod shuffle. I clip the speakers to my bike and it works well for the 2 hour bike ride without having to change the batteries. It allows me to listen to music as well as listen for traffic and people around me. The volume is great for a bike ride around the city and beach. The sound quality is impressive.

The 3.5mm jack is standard and works with my Philips MP3 player as well as all iPods. This works best with iPods because the storage inside is flat. My Philips MP3 player doesn't fit inside because it's not flat. When you unzip the pouch, the ON/OFF switch is on one side and the mesh screen is on the other side. Your MP3 player fits into this slot for added protection.

The shell of the speakers is made of hard material. You can shove it in the bottom of your backpack and it won't get crushed. It's durable and extremely convenient when you don't want to use headphones. Great for camping, hiking, bonfires, etc.

The reason for the 4-star rating is the lack of storage space for non-iPod products.

I was looking for cheap speakers to use with my iPod on Vacation. I didn't want to pay more than $10 for it. I am sooo glad I purchased this. For the price, I am amazed. I would recommend it to anyone. And for the price, I can be rough with it without worry!
