5.0 out of 5 stars The best of four non-powered speakers I tried., August 10, 2009

Out of curiosity, I bought four sets of "passive" (non-powered) speakers:

(1) these Philips
(2) the Coby CS-P14 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00009W5QS)
(3) the Coby CS-MP16 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000P1VR42)
(4) the Sony SRS-P11Q (http://www.amazon.com/Sony-SRS-P11Q-Passive-Speaker-System/dp/B00068E570/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1249963386&sr=8-2).

Of these four, these Philips had BY FAR the best sound. They alone sounded as if they had any bass at all, and were relatively balanced across the board, crisp compared to the others, without the excessive mid-range that characterizes the other three. They are also the most aesthetically pleasing of the four, I think. Take it from someone who has tried all four side-by-side: there is simply no contest.

For $9.99, these speakers sound pretty good. They're light, and do not use batteries. Since they're not powered, they're only as loud as the max volume on your audio device. They don't have much bass, but sound pretty clear overall. If you want something portable and much better sounding, but won't break the bank, grab the Virgin Boomtube speakers. They can be found as low as $29.95, but normally run about $49.95.

1.0 out of 5 stars Am I missing something, January 13, 2008

These are horrible. I mean bad. I tried them with everything...mp3 player, computer, headphone output on home theater...the sound is so low its a joke. I wonder if these were defective. I can't imagine giving them a star..but in this case its the lowest rating possible. They actually sound better in their new home..the trash.
