Perfectly portable with really impressive sound
|
| Review Date: December 12, 2008 |
| Reviewer: A. M. Harding, London United Kingdom |
I wanted to try and find some speakers that i could easily take with me on holiday but with great sound quality. Remote control and battery power, with a size that could fit in a suitcase were key requirements.
I tested many different portable speaker options, from the BOSE sound dock and Klipsch igroove all the way down to very basic <£20 Altec lansing, Philips and Sony options and the JBL On Stage IIIP was far and away the best.
I had largely discounted the BOSE due to the cost but also the size - the sound dock is just too big to fit in a suit case. However what surprised me was that although the JBL sound wasn't as good as the BOSE at the very high end, in the middle range i felt the sound was fuller and more capable.
The iGroove sound is impressive but again, not as portable, and if i'm honest it still didn't seem to deliver the the same sound through the range.
Don't even compare it to the low end docks and speakers - they are lighter and clearly more easily portable but if sound is important, that tinnyness and fuzzy base that you get will really irritate.
All in all, I've been delighted with them. The only draw back is the weight - they are not light!

Incredible sound

| I have been moved to write a review for the first time! As a techno-phobe woman I have never been impressed by anything gadjety but this has changed my views. It is hard to believe that such a small and light object can produce such an amazing sound; in fact when I first played music on it I automatically looked for speakers behind me. It had me spell bound. I still can't work out how something the size of a dog bowl can make me feel as if I am in a concert hall or live gig. Worth every penny. |
Packs a powerful punch

| This is a powerful little speaker - I was pleasantly surprised. The sound was good - not the tinny sounds you usually get from portable speakers. I have used it in a large room seatting 50 people and the sound was crystal clear. The added feature of batteries is invaluable as you can take your music outside...if the summer allows. |
