All in all it could be a better (perfect?!) product, but it is still a good buy and these speakers have everything I was looking for.
I was browsing the speakers in a Best Buy store and plugged my ipod into the black mm50 that was on display.
Great buy!PROS:-loud for their size-very little distortion at high volumes-handy remote control-solid, doesn't seem likely to break-excellent sound quality-long battery life (it is stated 10 hours, and this seems to be accurate)CONS:-bass is good, but no replacement for a subwoofer-remote control must be precisely pointed at system.-can turn on in carrying case accidentally, draining batteryOverall, I highly recommend these speakers.
I heard the speakers at Best Buy and I turned them up all the way and thought they where not loud enough
So I went up to my local best buy and bought one for 150
I did a great deal of research before purchasing a portable speaker system for my ipod and this was the cream of the crop for the price range I was looking for.
This is a nice little system that gives some clarity but it lacks some power
As long as you don't expect ultra low bass, this is a great little, portable, iPod speaker system
Additionally there are MANY substandard systems out there that have very poor quality & sound.
So I began searching for a portable speaker system for my ipod.
I charged the iPod, put it in the Logitech cradle (after trying to recharge the Logitech as well, again no blue light), and the Logitech started draining the iPod battery as it was playing
The sound quality is excellent, the remote is a great feature and they are truly portable.
The remote is also a nice feature, and works well when pointed directly at front of speakers & from distance of less than 20 feet
The remote is also a very nice feature to have (especially since you can run it externally to your
I'll lend more support to the argument that these might be the best iPod speakers you can get for your money.
I use the charger that came w/ the iPod itself to avoid this problem
This streamline, little dynamo charges your iPod as well.
If you don't require a portable speaker, the Athena iVoice is among the least expensive iPod speakers available and blows away any of the aforementioned speakers with its stunning, very present (but not "boomy") bass frequencies
My mom wanted some portable iPod speakers for her birthday, so I bought her these
I searched for years for portable speakers for a reasonable price that had great sound.
I wanted good, quality sound that came at a cheap price, and thats what I finally got
Great job Logitech for making an outstanding product for a great price.
The price was so unbearable, that I feel ashamed to mentioned it here, so I would say in the single digit range.
The latest acquisition is this Logitech mm50 which, in terms of style, features, price is closest to the popular Altec Lansing IM600, though it lacks Altec's radio (which I find too insensitive to be of much use).
Great sound (better than a lot of more expensive products I tried at CompUsa)
I rate this product a 10 out of 10 and highly recommend it to everyone.
Great job Logitech for making an outstanding product for a great price.
All-in-all Logitech has built a great product at a competitive price
For some reason when I would dock my iPod the menus would take a long time to flip through and my iPod would also sometimes randomly freeze (again, defective product
I bought these speakers refurbished to get a low price, and I'm very satisfied with the sound they produce -- super clean, decent bass for such a small unit, and plenty of volume.
My JBL Sound-Stage speakers have much better sound at higher frequencies (but unfortunately don't have nearly as good bass response--if only they could
So if big bass is your only concern, then don't buy travel speakers.
It isn't the speakers that will shake your room but it has great bass for the size of the speakers
I was surprisingly able to play Daft Punk with the bass pumping yet hardly any distortion
The unit just arrived yesterday, so I can't vouch for the durability or the lifetime of the Li-ion battery.
the sound is good and the unit is very portable and even comes with it's own padded case (it would be nice if they provided space for an ipod in the case, but they didn't).
After that, Logitech covers the product for two years and will replace the entire unit if the battery fails during that time
The Ugly:-Battery usage, unit storage, and portability are limited by the "Spontaneous Battery Discharge" problem: for no reason, unit will turn itself on and drain battery when sitting idle
I was pleasantly surprised by the rich sound and unit itself.
The Good:-Very convenient: a great way to use your iPod.-A good value relative to other similar products.-Charges iPod when included AC adapter is used.-Decent sound volume and quality.-Battery Powered with reasonable life (except for discharge problem mentioned below).-Compact and easily portable although use of AC charger is often required
I charged the iPod, put it in the Logitech cradle (after trying to recharge the Logitech as well, again no blue light), and the Logitech started draining the iPod battery as it was playing
The Ugly:-Battery usage, unit storage, and portability are limited by the "Spontaneous Battery Discharge" problem: for no reason, unit will turn itself on and drain battery when sitting idle
I would have rated 5 stars instead of 4 if not for the Spontaneous Battery Discharge problem.
I in no way consider this to be "supporting" the 3G!
If you set it on a hard surface with a wall or other hard surface behind it (like on a shelf or mantle or at the back of a desk near the wall), you will double the bass waves.
If you can place the speaker against two hard back surfaces (a corner shelf or other place where a verticle corner meets a hard horizontal surface), you will double the bass yet again.
The bass sound waves of any speaker will be amplified if the speaker is backed up by two or three hard surfaces.

After 7 months of heavy use, the a/c adapter stopped working.
