Pyle Home PIP10 Portable Speaker System for iPod and Other MP3 Player
not very good sound for music , but more than adequate for talk radio podcasts from NPR
Rating: 5 / 5
I love these little speakers–they are very compact, and despite being so small, they actually have bass! The only flaws I can see with these speakers is that the volume level seems to reset itself every time I unplug them, which means I have to turn up the volume every time I use them–kind of a pain (this may not be a problem if you use them with batteries). Also, the carrying bag that they come with is not big enough to hold the power adapter along with the speakers. Minor issues, though. I’m definitely happy with the product.

Unpacked the unit, set it up, plugged in my MP3 player and powered it up, and it made a lot of popping noises. Turned if off, checked connections–all good, back on. Popping noises were gone, but only the left speaker was working. The right speaker, not a sound. Turned it back off, re-checked connections–still good, back on and still no sound from the right speaker. As I began folding it up, the right speaker felt like it was very loose and could fall off.
On the other hand, after MANY purchases from Amazon, I had an opportunity to go through the online return process. Simple and quick process to print the RMA and label. An A+ for that process.

When I ordered this for my iPod, I was looking for portable sound, not a boombox. It delivers the sound. It does fold into a compact package (they provide a little long bag). It is fairly easy to set up and plug in. The drawbacks are: the plastic clip that holds the iPod on the front is not real secure and doesn’t allow me to put the charger plug in. It does not dock and charge. Although it came with an AC adapter, I bought a wall, USB charger and car charger thing also from Amazon for about $3.50 which lets me charge the iPod. I lay the iPod on the table in front of the speakers instead of hanging it on the clip. Also, I can plug the speakers into the headphone jack on my MacBook and use them as laptop speakers. I would order it again, but was disappointed in how the iPod attached and how the plug on the back of the speakers functions as the balance to keep the speakers upright. It is compact and has the sound I was looking for.

Worked right out of the box. At low volume sound OK, like you would expect from a motel bedside clock radio. At high volume sound breaks up and is distorted. Guess that’s about all that can be expected from a 20 some odd dollar sound system.
Was going to return it, but at this price level why bother. I’ll take it on my travels and use it instead of the even worse sound system on motel bedside radios.
