"Great Little Speakers"
The size is great. The sound quality is decent. You give up some "stereo" sound by not having 2 speakers that are apart. However, I was looking for something to take on the road. This is perfect for travel.

"great for the bike!"
great product.. I have a few of them... put them in the bike basket on a beach cruise and rock out to tunes on the ipod... great sound! batteries last forever in this.

"handy great sound, but not idiot proof"
this is the second JBL On Tour Portable Speaker System I purchased. the first one's speakers blew out.

Pro: I bought it again because it suits all my needs its portable, has great sound, has its own protective cover built in. Lightweight

Con: not idiot proof:
The only negitive is that you have to be careful (as with all speakers) when using it with different output volumes. For examable when I use it with my ipod the output volume is fairly low, therefore I need to turn up the volume on the jbl speaker. If my husband later hooks speaker (which is set on high from my ipod use) up to the radio stereo which has a much higher volume output (than the ipod),without turning down the volume output of the radio and the volume output for the speakers, this combination of events can blow out the speakers. (I am not a tech geek so if this is incorrect,sorry). I also had another friend who this happened to.

would buy again and recomend it


"JBL Portable Speakers"
Very loud speaker system. Just 4 AAA Batteries. Lasts pretty long. A/C adapter. Automatic off when closed. A+

"Great for travel use/PPT presentations, etc."
I purchased this last minute and used it in a presentation (spoken, no music) to about 60 people in a room about 20 x 50. Most of the folks were pretty old and could hear well. I've only used it a little with Music, and it sounds great for the size speaker. I will travel with it for my own music listening (when I have the luggage space). Hope this helps.
