3.0 out of 5 stars works for me, March 31, 2011

I'm happy with sound quality of the rock for outdoors. And it certainly is waterproof. Combined with the other Sound Blaster Wireless stuff its a great way to have music in your entire apartment/house all running from your laptop.

My main issue with the rock is it doesn't have a remote like the receivers do. So you have to open the back to change volume and turn it off/on.

The speakers were not what we expected as far as sound quality. Have tried to contact the company several times regarding returning
the 2 speakers but they have not responded. I would not recommend purchasing anything from this company. Extremely
poor customer service!!!
