Pricelist of MP3 Player 2008

Worthless
I don't do normally do product reviews but I am so disappointed by this product I have to.

I bought these to use with my laptop to play audio files in a language class. Unfortunately, the speakers on the laptop are louder. And the speakers on my EeePC 1000H are not the best. Thinking something was up I tried it on multiple products, including my main computer, MP3 player, stereo, and portable CD player with the same craptastic results. In fact, they are just barely louder than a crappy pair of 10 year old Sony headphones.

As others have posted, please be warned, these speakers have horrible sound volume.

Save your money or buy something else.

Very efficient speakers
I bought these for my laptop, Motorola W490 phone (has a media player in it), SanDisk mini mp3/wma player (runs on a single AAA battery for 7 hours), & my solar powered Kato solar powered pocket radio. In all the above apps, the speakers sounded surprisingly good for such small (un-powered) speakers, at such a low price.

My laptop speakers are only 1/4"x 1 1/2" each. The other units don't have speakers... headphones only.

These speakers are very efficient considering most earphone jacks only put out around 10-50 milliwatts (.01-.05 watts)of sound power. You won't rattle the windows with these, but they do deliver more quality sound per milliwatt than anything else I've found yet... exactly what I was looking for.

These are not "amplified" speakers & are not powered by batteries or an AC adapter. They are powered by the audio power coming directly from your earphone jack on your player, laptop, PC, or radio.

Earbuds inside your ear do not require as much power to sound loud, as speakers will to fill a whole room. The volume & sound quality of the speakers will depend on the quality & power coming out of your earphone jack.

puts out great sound for my home office
I have an old portable AM/FM/CD player w/ AC adapter I wanted to use in my home office for a radio. I didn't want to have to deal with yet another AC adapter and my player is better than a lot of radios I looked at. I picked these up for at a retail store. I have the volume set at 3/4 of the max level on player and the speakers are loud enough for my needs and sound great.

Great sound... for what it is
I bought a pair of these on a whim because the price was so low. Obviously, I wasn't expecting too much considering my MP3 player's headphone jack would be powering them, and they were far too small for any real bass output.

Since my standards were low, I was more than satisfied once I got them. I basically just use them for audio books and talk radio, and for that purpose, they leave little to be desired. There's also light, small, and require no batteries, so taking them along on a hike or camping trip to serve as ambiance is a great idea.

Will they blow you away with room-filling sound? Um, no. But they're far better than the built-in speakers from your cellphone, and easier to transport than a boombox.

Good Products under this price
I owed a lot of pc speakers before. The quality of this product is very good under this price range. It is simple to use and weight is light which can carry everywhere. It doesn't need any battery to operate which I don't need to worry about running out the battery. Even it can't adjust the volume through the speaker, I tried to use my notebook to raise the volume up to the highest, the sound of the speakers were still very clear. This is very amazing. I will recommend this product to my friends who have limited budget and/or always need to travel.
