 sony srs-tp1Dec 22, 2007
By D. Muisener
I saw this little speaker at target on clearance and thought how cute. I got it for my mom, but tried it out first. It has a good sound for its size. Considering it is not powered, it is quiet, but it is also perfect for anyone who wants to get the earbuds out of the earholes for a while. She has an mp3 player and loves it but cant always use it because she cant hear the phone with the earbuds in, so this is a perfect option. Inexpensive, no batteries required, and great for the room she is in to hear her tunes. As with all travel/foldable/hinged things, you have to treat them with care or they will break. Overall I give this a 4 out of 5 stars for quality and functionality.

 Neat Design..........Jul 18, 2007
By P. A. Tamblyn
"Phill735"
I bought these speakers to (in hope) add more depth to my portable DVD player, that only has a tiny little speaker. I have had amp speakers, but wanted the convinience of not having to power them up.
The design of these speakers are great. the cord wraps around the case nicly, the base closes to protect the speakers.
I soon found out that they are very quiet. My dvd players internal speaker is louder, the sony speakers are only slightly better in the sound quality department. I have a top of the line Sony headphones and they run louder then these, I can get my headphones up much louder than the internal speaker. Tried them with a few devices (sony HiFi, Computer, Gaming sevice) but still couldnt get them to produce any real volume. I wish I could coment on the sound qaulity more but its hard to tell with a wisper. I wasnt expecting much in terms of sound, but I was still disapointed.
If you have no other options, these will do. but dont be expecting to entertain groups of people with these.

 Oustanding productNov 08, 2007
By A. H. H. Koning
Easy to use with yur Mp3 player (in my case a Sony) if you fold back with care it stand firm on yur desk and it play's well.
Afcourse you cannot compare this little item with the bigger speakers at home, than again here at the office or when I a have a bath it will play the tunes with ease and splendor.
It is battery free and easy to pick up with you and it sound compared to its size very well.
I am real happy with it and I can recommend it to any serious mp3 player owner.

Perfect for my needsApr 21, 2009
By B. Langman
I'm very impressed with this little unit. How can something so simple-looking and so small work so well without its own power source? I listen to books-on-tape at night and this really fits the bill. No need for high volume and the sound quality is just fine at the volume I use. I waited a week to rate it because a different machine (iHome)broke after just a few nights. Very poor quality. So far, this one is a gooder.
The only thing I didn't like is that the packaging was a little confusing. It read, "No batteries/AC adapter required." Now that I know the "/" replaces the word "or", it's clear, but the salesMEN (plural) and I understood it to mean that batteries weren't needed but an AC adapter was. In the end, I returned the unnecessary adapter and really like this thing.
It's a few months later and I thought I'd update... NO CHANGE! I still think this speaker is fantastic. I've traveled with it since my last post and had zero problems. It's really great. Highly recommended.

Pretty GoodMar 03, 2008
By M. Magnaye

This is a good product. I really like the simple yet elegant design. The sound quality is surprisingly clear. Don't hope for too much bass out of these (as is expected for the small speakers). I do not recommend these as the primary source of sound for your music player in your living room. For that you definitely want to invest in something bigger. I think they're most ideal for times when you want music on the go, but don't want to use headphones. In my case, I use it while I'm working as a bus driver (can't wear headphones while driving). Some people have said that the volume isn't very high on these, but on my ipod it's more than enough.
