Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The SRS-Z510 active speakers succeed in supplying a powerful sound from a small package. The speakers have die-cast aluminum chassis stands, the color of which match Sony's Discman and MiniDisc portable recorders and players. The color is also a classy, high-tech color and looks appropriate in any room setting. The speakers are powered by an included AC adaptor. Built-in controls for volume and power are front mounted for easy access. Included in the package is a two meter (6.6 feet) connecting cord with a stereo mini-jack, the ideal cord for connecting these speakers to a wide range of components. There are two analog inputs which allows you to connect with two components. The headphone jack provides the opportunity to quiet the room with use of a pair of headphones.

The built-in amplifier produces seven watts of power. Sony also uses sigma-type magnetic circuitry which aids in producing a deep bass sound. The 2 1/4 inch speakers deliver excellent sound for their size. The 2 1/4 inch bass reflex woofer has a folded sound duct for high acoustic output. Sony has also engineered its Mega Bass feature into the speakers. Stylish looks, crisp sound, quality bass: the SRS-Z510 creates big sound in a small package.

What's in the Box
Sony SRS-Z510 speaker system, connecting cord, AC adaptor, user's manual and a ninety day warranty.

Product Description

Sony SRS-Z510 powered speakers stand less than 6" high. They sound much bigger. Just hook them up to your PC or portable audio and enjoy smooth, rich sound! Sony's Sigma-type magnetic circuitry gives you surprisingly powerful bass from the full-range 2-1/4" drivers and you can engage the MegaBass booster for even more low-frequency punch. If your MP3 Player has a miniplug output (or headphone jack), these speakers can deliver high quality sound to your room. Dual analog inputs let you connect multiple sources.

5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful, May 21, 2006

By	Andrew Siew (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)    (VINE VOICE)

With two small (5.7 cm diameter) yet powerful drivers, the SRS-Z510 delivers deep bass sounds that rivals speakers twice its size. The mini speaker cones are highly responsive to low frequencies, vibrating ferociously to bass tones and drum beats at high volume yet barely produce any audible distortions. The treble is a little mellow by comparison, but overall the Z510 offers a very well balanced sound.

However, due to the high current demand of the Z510, the supplied AC/DC adaptor weighs like a brick. The bigger transformer magnet is needed to produce the high 1A current to drive those powerful speakers.

If you are the kind who hates the sound of squeaky satellites but cannot stand the sight of a subwoofer lurking under your PC table and do not mind not getting earth quaking bass tones from your sound card / audio players, this is the unit to look out for.

By	Chad Samsel "RC51ManSam" (Columbus, GA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

All I can say is WOW. The sound is very rich for such a small speaker. I was blown away. I was very reluctant but am happy with my purchase. Definitely a recommended item if you are looking for something similar.
