    Perfect compact portable speaker. Sound is great, a little light in regards for the bass. But love the strap to hang from a chair.

    These are nice sounding speakers and I have 2 of them paired for stereo. They sound great for their small size. I am picky and I love them. You are not going to hear them if you have a large group in the room. But they are loud for personal use, and the stereo is nice.
