The Little Speaker That Could
Bought this speaker for my 11-year old son to use with his MP3 player.
The sound is great! The small size, portability, and simplicity of the speaker is a big plus. I especially like that the speaker can work off battery or electricity. Makes a great gift -- great for a dorm or office.
Great with a Chumby
I have a Chumby that I use as my clock radio. Chumby can be setup to play internet radio stations, as well as a variety of podcasts. Unfortunately, my hearing isn't quite what it used to be, and the Chumby speakers just don't pack much punch. This speaker system provides plenty of volume for me, and the sound quality seems quite good to my ears (although no one would call me an audiophile.)
I had previously tried the AudioSource Db5 speaker system, but I just wasn't quite satisfied with it. For one thing, the AudioSource has a blindingly bright LED power indicator light, which is not what I want in my bedroom at night. For another, it has touch button up and down volume controls and does not remember your last setting, so each time I turned it on (i.e. every day) I had to push the up volume button 12 times to get to my preferred setting.
The On Tour speakers have a much more reasonable power indicator light, and, although it also has the touch button volume control, it does remember your last setting. I also noticed a significant difference in sound quality between the two systems, with On Tour sounding both clearer and fuller.
Another bonus: the shape of the On Tour system made it easy to hang it off the side of my night stand, so it doesn't have to take up space on the table top.
The Best and so Loud
These speakers are so easy to use, portable and can get so loud, I won't dare try to take it to the maximum volume. I take them everywhere I go with my laptop. I also like the way the volume starts on mute when you first plug them in and if you pause your video or music on the computer, the speakers go into a power save mode (I use the battery power instead of the plug). I use them all the time and still haven't needed to replace the batteries. The soft case it comes with is very convenient. I ordered them after reading other reviews. They really are the best.
