The speakerset is very convenient to carry around but don't expect big sound out of the package. I bought it because the speakers on my laptop don't seem to work.
Pros:
- Kinamx product can be powered by the USB
- Compact and easy to carry around
- Sound is fine in the midrange.
- Construction seems sturdy
- Very inexpensive

Cons:
- Included wire for connecting is very short. It is good enough for a mp3 player but needs maneuvering for a laptop
- Performance with some bass is mediocre. The speaker start vibrating a bit. I would have preferred to reduce the bass tones via a filter rather than attempting to play them badly
- Need to buy a power adapter to be able to play mp3 player

I bought these speakers because I already had some just like it and they worked fine. However, when these speakers arrived, the speakers were not glued to the plastic casing and shook around inside making it impossible for them to work properly. I was quite disappointed.

I only give it 5 stars because what you pay for it is so dirt cheap, yet it works fine. The sound isn't spectacular (a little tinny), but again I am rating it on it's price and that it meets expectations. And it is very small.

If you are looking for a high-end model, look elsewhere. If you want a backup, this ones great.

Only one of the two speakers works, but since I only use it for listening to audiobooks it's okay. Very handy item if you don't feel like using earbuds.

I guess they're ok for the price. The audio quality is tolerable, but not really good.

Kept this on my desk at work to use for soft background music... Until my Zune was stolen! Until then, it worked great! No complaints from me!

It's ok the speakers works good just the battery door can't close back maybe a factory error

The pic for this product shows the MP3 player cradled right-side up. If your MP3 has its headphone jack on the bottom edge, this speaker set-up forces you to plug the MP3 in upside-down to fit in the cradle. This makes the cradle worthless.

The USB cable allows you to plug in the speakers to your computer without using batteries, but the cable is too short for most situations.

The sound is decent but too weak to compete with anything short of silence.

If you have a stereo system, buy an audio cable that will connect your MP3 player (through the headphone jack) for proper sound levels. They are cheaper than this speaker set.

If you want something portable that's not disappointing, your going to have to spend more money.

These speakers use four AAA BATTERIES and NOT four AA BATTERIES!
There's a type-O in the product description.
I love mine though. My first set was stolen from my apartment in Peru. I'm so glad to have another one!
Great for traveling!

I love this small toy. It is quite powerful. I use it for watching movies and TV on my laptop. The sound quality is quite good for this price.
