   I use this in my bedroom for when i am on the computer or just reading a book and sometimes when i am laying down. The design is nice and very unique. I like how different it is and how i can move the speakers whichever way i please. This does NOT have a remote, however one can be purchased online. When i opened it there was an offer for the remote which was $19.99 when i first opened it. I like how i can change the color’s and everything is easy to use. Even a twelve year old could figure this out. Its amazing. The only reason it gets four stars is because i think it should have came WITH the remote. Sorry but that’s how i feel. I have mine up top on the shelf so the sound can bounce around the room and it would be easier if i had the remote instead of having to reach up all the time.

   I gambled on this units for the $14 price tag that it would work with my 3rd generation touch. I asked and looked and no comments so thought I had better post. It plays and charges my 3rd generation touch just fine. A little lacking on the bass but a great set-up for the kitchen or a bedroom – especially for $15 (NYS tax ).

   I bought these speakers to use at the office and have been very satisfied with them. The sound quality is good and the construction is easy to hide on your desk. They might not be the best speakers for high volume, as there is not much bass, but they are great for my purposes.

   My only complaint is that the volume controls are not very sensitive. By that I mean that there is a jump in the volume for each click, so that sometimes you cannot get the “perfect” volume, it will be either too loud or too soft and you cannot adjust it further.

   I have a 1st Generation 8 GB iPod Touch, and this product works great as speakers. I use it mostly as an alarm. The one major problem is that the light indicator that it is on is WAY too bright, I so cover it up with some other object (until I can find some electrical tape).

   Also, note that the remote is separate for $20. This isn’t a concern for me, but it might for others.

   For the great price, these are a decent set of speakers. The sound is somewhat tinny, and there is very little bass. They don’t produce a lot of sound either; they are only suitable for a small room. They are a good option for someone on a very low budget (good for a dorm room), or someone looking for an inexpensive set of extra speakers. They appear to be very portable, but what they don’t show you in the product photo is that the speakers are wired to the main unit. They’re also a bit heavier than I expected them to be. Although I have managed to carry all three pieces from one room to another without dropping anything, it wasn’t easy. If I wanted to take these to the beach or a picnic or on a trip, I would probably pack them up in the box they came in to prevent them from getting banged up. It would have been great if they had devised a gadget with a handle to allow you to carry all the pieces easily, but they didn’t. I’ve also had some issues with getting the speaker unit to turn off when I have my iPod Classic plugged in (I also have an iPod Touch and I haven’t had the same problems with it). In addition I’ve had problems turning the volume up/down when my Classic is plugged in; it’s as if the speakers freeze up. I’m hoping this won’t affect the performance of the speakers. Another bonus to this unit is that it charges your iPod as you play music through the speakers.
