Summary: rugged and good for hotel room background music
Review: I never watch TV at home. As soon as I get into a hotel room, however, I immediately switch the TV on. When I travel with these speakers and an MP3 player or laptop, however, I set up some background music and don't waste my life watching the Weather Channel. I've had mine on the road for more than 70 traveling days and in checked soft-ish airline bags for perhaps 10 flights. So far they are still working well.At this weight you can't expect an authentic reproduction of a 9' Steinway grand piano. But these are vastly better and louder than the speakers built into laptop computers.

Summary: Expected better from CreativeLabs
Review: I recently purchased these speakers and was amazed at how bad they were. These are not cheap speakers. The purchase was for my CD player and computer. The problem is that when you turn up the volume to any decent level, there is buzzing and alot of noise, especially on any bass tone. There is also a switch at the top between the up and down volume buttons that's supposed to produce a "Wide Stereo Effect". It actually makes the noise worse. While they do look nice (though they have a tendency to fall over), the sound quality make these not worth purchasing. I've returned these speakers and am now looking for an alternative.

Summary: better than the laptop's speakers
Review: Just bought these at a local store. They are a lot better than the laptop speakers. A whole lot louder, too.

Summary: UGH! These sound horrible!
Review: Maybe I just got a defective item, but the sound on these is almost unlistenable. I had to take them back. This surprised me, because I very much liked the low-priced computer speakers they make under the Cambridge Soundworks brand name. Go for the comparable speakers from Panasonic (RP-SPT70), which sound great and are exactly half the price! It was a choice between the Panasonics and the expensive Sony offering (which I still haven't heard), and I'm very glad I saved the money and went with the Panasonic. In any case, avoid these Creatives!

Summary: Good sound Excellent Size
Review: The sound is pretty good. I use it for my projector and it will be loud enough to fill a room with sound 35x35 feet. Don't expect much bass though unless you turn down the volume. It can run 35 hours on battery which I think is really good. The reason for the 4 stars is becuase of the case it comes with which is a cheap material, it only protects scratches.

Summary: Ok sound
Review: The sound is pretty good. It is just a little bit better than Laptop speakers. I use it for my projector and it will be loud enough to fill a room with sound 35x35 feet. Don't expect much bass though unless you turn down the volume alot. It can run 35 hours on battery which I think is really good.

Summary: TRAVEL SPEAKERS! Great, depending on your needs.
Review: These speakers were quite surprising at first listen. For the miniature size (and they are small) these speakers really put out a nice loud sound. Almost unbelievable. These speakers will work best as sound for a ONE ROOM environment. Don't plan on replacing your home stereo. The main complaint from most users is that the speakers distort under high volumes. You can't expect home stereo sound from a tiny unit like this. But, believe me, the sound is more than adequate for travel purposes. For example, these are perfect for a hotel room or a nice sound source during a day on the beach. They are MORE than adequate for those types of applications. Don't buy these speakers with the intent that they will serve as at-home computer speakers. These things are fantastic for the road and best of the best in travel speakers. However, sometimes people can expect more than is technically feasible. Considering the size and price, these speakers ROCK!
