 marvelous BUT Creative Zen M owners BEWARE March 26, 2007

This is a wonderful piece of equipment, especially for the price and size. It plays any mp3/IPOD. But Creative Zen M owners DON'T DON'T DON'T plug it into the docking point, that is for Ipod's, use the supplied adaptor which plugs into the earphone socket on the Zen. I plugged it into the docking point and it fried my Zen. Creative have very kindly replaced it because it was still within warranty but I was without it a month!! Intempo do not warn you about this problem so BEWARE. The sound is excellent but will only fill a small room. I have it on my desk at work and its brilliant.
Very Good!! May 30, 2006

I was looking around for some decent speakers for a decent price and i stubbled along these. I dont have an Ipod but they go great with my Sony Walkman. They produce a good sound, which is good as i like my music loud!! I fully recommend these speakers.

I bought these so we could all listen to my iPod on holiday. The speakers are powerful enough to fill a large room with clear and crisp sound and as an added bonus the iPod is recharged at the same time. The mains power supply is the heaviest part of the kit while the speakers are compact,stylish and well built. Highly recommended.
Great little product at a great price! June 9, 2006

I was looking for a speaker system for my ipod mini for an upcoming holiday, and I bought this item on the strength of the reviews I read here. I was not dissapointed either!! - it's quite remarkable how much power this unit can generate. The clarity is very, very good, and although the bass end is obviously not the beefiest (compared to a proper hifi unit) it does deliver a good punch, and the bass is still very evident, and retains very good solidity.
The volume controls are very easy to use, and I can't quite understand any complaints about them - you simply tap on them repeatedly to incrementally change the level up or down. The unit is solid, and a little heavier than i anticipated, but that can only helps the bass end I think, and there are no rattles when playing at high volumes, and let me tell you, this can really kick it out, but realistically, you'd probably only use it at half to 3/4 volume for a more than adequate volume for most uses.
Sound quality is retained at lower volumes also. The stereo image is adequate - the speakers are only 6" apart afterall!
I have noticed the same hiss that someone else mentioned (either on this or the white version), but have also noticed this is only when the screen on my mini dims! - I set it to not go off, and there is no hiss at all! - a quirk to be sure, but not enough for me to send it back, since it scores highly in all other aspects.
If you want a true hi-fi sound, then spend a few hundred on a hi-fi with big speakers and a quality amplifier, but if you want portability and power for your ipod, I think you'd be hard pressed to find a solution with comparable quality as cheap, and in fact, I have heard less quality from some hi-fi units to be honest.
Because of that small niggle on the hiss/screen dim, I would have given this item 4.5 stars, but given the value for money and overall high quality of the unit, it gets 5 from me!
Now - I wonder how many of these I could justify throughout the house.... ;)

one of the best products ive purchased, and just 25 it was a steal, great for partys, because of its great sound levels, easy to use, im normally weary of buying things online, but this wiped out all those thoughts,
disadvantages : no battery, which hasnt harmed me because pluging it in is 10 times easier, its a big plug so make sure its spacious around ur sockets.
GREAT ITEM, WONT LET U DOWN, 5*, BUY NOW!
