5 out of 5 stars Great product and great Amazon service   August 31, 2008

I bought a set of these having seen the reviews they've been getting both here and in What HiFi. The price has really dropped since the PureFi replacement product has gone on the market, so I figured I had nothing to lose.
The build quality is excellent, my ipod (an 80gig video classic) fits well (as does my wife's nano), and the sound quality is impressive for such a small, cheap set of speakers. A friend has the 250 Bose system and the difference in quality is much smaller than you'd expect for a 200 difference in price!
The remote control is small and simple but looks good and works well, although being shiny and black I know it won't be long before it picks up a couple of marks. The carry case fits well, although you can't fit the mains adaptor in.
One reviewer commented that when you turn up the volume on these it turns up your iPod's headphone volume at the same time (it uses the volume display), but I found that holding down the volume + and - keys at the same time for 5 secs disables this. OK, so I can't see how much I've turned them up, but I can hear how loud they are......
The 3D effect does make a difference, but for me it depends on the album playing whether this is an improvement or not.
The first charge does take the 4 and a bit hours mentioned in the manual, but is worth it to get the battery life up. You can use the dock while it's charging, so this wasn't a problem for me. The true battery life won't be seen for the first few charge / discharge cycles, and I haven't run 'em down yet, so will wait and see on this.
The first set I received had a faulty speaker, but, after completing the Amazon returns process, printing off the pre-paid label for postage, and sending them back on Friday lunchtime, I was amazed to have a replacement set arrive at 8:30 on Saturday morning! I'm struggling to think of any other firm that has such a slick returns and replacement process.
All in all 5 stars even allowing for the faulty 1st set.



4 out of 5 stars These are great   August 22, 2008
Got these due to their top reviews and have not been disappointed. A tinch more bass would have got them 5 stars, but no other speakers in this price range that I have heard come near them. Very handy for charging up the household iPods too. Slight drawbacks are they are reported as not working with newer ipods which is a shame. Also, the 'surround' button or whatever it is doesn't really improve the sound but rather distorts it slightly. These are minor niggles though for what is a great buy. Used it recently on holiday and it was perfect for background and a BBQ, though as mentioned elsewhere not really loud and bassy enough for a party, but excellent for being portable. The internal battery makes carrying it around light, and it comes with its own slim carry-case - easily slips into your suitcase. Get.


5 out of 5 stars amazing speakers   August 20, 2008
the only thing i can say about these are buy them you will not be disapointed amazing clear sound well made nice and compact for the price you will not find better has ive searched for weeks and the bonus is the built in batt which will save you a fortune


4 out of 5 stars Quite amazing   August 13, 2008
Ordered this on Thursday evening and it arrived on Monday , took it out of the box plugged in the mains adaptor switched it on placed my Ipod in the dock and wow! Like so many others who have spent an age listening to mid range products and being disappointed with the sound - well I was blown away - at this price I am seriously looking at getting a second.

The carrying case is impressive, the remote is 'dinky' but performs well and overall the build is comparable with items twice this price.

I would strongly recommend this to anyone who is on the move with their Ipod.



4 out of 5 stars Excellent Product   August 5, 2008
After looking at quite a few portable speakers i finally plumped for the Logitech MM50 and i am very glad i did. What made it stand out from the rest even before i purchased it was the fact that it had its own internal rechargeable battery. This made it a definate no brainer compared to the other products that required 6 or 8 batteries which probably wouldnt last that long. After finally purchasing it and then using it over a weekend of sitting in the garden, i found out that these speakers are a dream. If you want speakers that are going to make the floor shake then these are not for you, but if you want clear good sound in an indoor or outdoor enviroment then these are perfect. They even have a stereo wide function which changes the sound of the music and a lot of times for the better, especially when you are listening to chillout music etc. It also has a remote control which obviously makes things even better and especially as it partly controls the ipod also, but only really when you need to go back and forward in a list of songs and then of course the volume. Overall i would highly recommend this product and espcecially for the price i paid on Amazon, it was a real bargin and perfect for what i wanted.
