Really great little speaker for the job I got it for

You know, I'm not sure what folks are expecting when they get a PORTABLE speaker - something the size of an atom with the sound quality of a 7.1 Dolby Surround Sound home theater system?  Me, I'm thinking something that definitely enhances sound quality and volume while being small enough to be unobtrusive in my luggage is something I'm happy about.

Bought one to try it - very portable, rechargeable, cute, decent sound quality for what it's for - TRAVEL.  I like it enough to have bought 2 more to daisy chain together.

During my last trip I left it on and plugged it into my phone overnight, so when my alarm came on with the Beatles I woke up to great music - and without recharging it it continued to play a few more hours that same evening.  It's playing right now - and I still haven't charged it after a couple of days of intermittent play.  Nice battery length!

The other thought re: sound quality - folks, you really need to fiddle with your equalizer settings.  The sound out of the box is tinny, but my iPhone and of course iTunes on my laptop has equalizers that you can fiddle with to your heart's content (manually, even) that can really change the sound coming out of your speaker.  The Apple equalizers even have a "small speaker" setting that I'm finding does seem to sound best with the X-mini Capsule.  So fiddle away!

Really fun little speaker. I use it mostly indoors and it works perfectly but I have taken it outside as well. It is not the most powerful speaker out there but the solar panel makes it the best choice for me. I was travelling with it in a country where I could not plug it in because of the different plug standards, that solar panel saved me.

great little speaker for the money. I have not tried to get it wet but if it happens i m sure it will do just fine.  Last week I had a power outage for a few hours at my house, I used this speaker to charge my cell while I waited for the power to return. Sounds great, def sounds bigger than the speaker itself.

I actually bought this item to run the speakers for my computer, and it does a good job, makes plenty of smooth sound and good bass for the sub.  But then I thought, why not use this for my big subwoofers in the livingroom?  Well i put it in there yesterday and it's just perfect for the job.  Since it's a manual on/off switch, I can plug it into the switched power source on the back of my big amp and forget it... control the volume with the subwoofer settings on the big amp.  I'll order another for my computer eventually, but I have an old receiver I can use in there for now.

Oh and when I was using this for the computer, I checked the heat several times and it barely even gets warm, so I doubt it's wasting much electricity to be left on all of the time... my computer is on constantly.

I bought 2 of these units and ordered some in-wall speakers to go with it.  I ordered my speakers from MCM only cause I could see the impedence rating of the speakers and the wattage requirements that the speaker would work under.  Also I am using a 13.8 VDC 7 amp regulated power supply to power the amp.  It works great for my application.  I have it installed in my office and hooked to bluetooth receiver for connectivity to my laptop, Ipad, and smartphone.  It by far is not any bose sound system but for the price I have in it, it does an outstanding job.  (Just to be fair, everything at my house is Bose.)

This is a great little speaker, very portable, easily fits in the palm of your hand. Very loud for it's size and pretty good sound quality even when turned all the way up. I love that it is reasonably weather proof and have used it to make the sideline of my frisbee games into a little party even in bad weather.

The battery life is respectable, I had it turned up all the way playing music over bluetooth for about 3.5 hours nonstop at a tailgate before it started to beep low battery at me (I am not 100% sure it was fully charged when I got it out either).

It is very easy to connect to. Over the course of the tailgate I had 4 different phone connect to it, both Android and Iphones without any difficultly.

I bought this speaker from another site at the huge discount of $19.99 and I couldn't be more pleased.  The thing is tiny but it has a really good sound quality and plenty of volume for my needs. After listening to it I think it is still a bargain at the full price.

I like to listen to audiobooks while I am working on my Honey-Do list and I use the input jack to plug a Sensa MP3 player into the Thrill.  It is perfect with very distinct speaking voice quality for recorded books.

I also plan to use it on the deck for music when I am cooking out or just relaxing so I tried out the Bluetooth link with my Samsung S6 Active and it paired right up and listening to light jazz the sound quality and volume were a lot more than I expected.

To be fair, the controls are very limited. It has a power button, an up and down volume control, and a play pause button.  There is a USB port for charging the battery and an input jack for devices that don't have Bluetooth capability.  It is supposed to work with the phone to take and make calls as a hands free device but I haven't tried that function so I can't address it.

It does have voice feedback to let you know that it is powering on or off, when you are paring with Bluetooth, and when you have the volume set to the maximum so you don't keep pressing the button to try and make it lounder.

It is small, simple, and really good sounding for as small as it is.  Sounds much larger.

This is a great little speaker, and I mean little. The cube is about 2x2x2. The speaker is on the back, with the display on the front. It has a micro card slot, usb, micro/mini usb, and standard audio in (all on the top of the unit). It came with a charged battery and a multi usb cable, and a wristlet. The cable has a usb, audio, and mini/micro usb connector.

The instructions aren't that great, and are in broken English, but after spending some time playing around with it, I was able to figure it out.

Besides the usb, audio in, and card reader, this also has FM radio. The audio cable supplied with the unit works as the antenna using the audio line in port. And it picked up a LOT, if not all, the local stations. It allows for presets up to 20 stations.

Also has date and time, and battery status symbol. Settings include how long the backlight stays on, and several other options.

Sound is very clear, even when the volume is turned up. I use this at my cubicle at work and have the FM volume at 6. When I have my mp3 player connected I have volume around 28. The volume goes up from there, but I don't go that high at work and don't really know how loud it gets.

I am surprised how well it sounds for a small, lone speaker. I am considering buying another, but don't know what I would use it for.

I wanted a versatile little bluetooth speaker that wouldn't break the bank or break when I threw it in a bag to go to the lake or a cookout or something. This is exactly what I was looking for. I'm pleasantly surprised by the sound quality (tip: the sub faces downward, so it sounds better when it's laying horizontal instead of vertical).

- Great sound and surprisingly-good bass for how small it is!
- Very enclosed, so I don't have to worry about sand or stuff getting stuck inside.
- The sides are kind of rubbery, so it seems kind of rugged and protected from bumps and being hauled around.
- Charges with a micro USB cable.

I also ordered the neoprene case with it so it's even more protected when I bring it with me (it hasn't been delivered yet). You won't be disappointed by this speaker.

I first spotted the X-Mini UNO capsule speaker at a training session where it was being used as an impromptu speaker phone in conjunction with an iPhone. The sound was so good I picked up one for myself. I've used it to listen in on conference calls and as a portable speaker for music played from my Android cellphone. It has surprisingly good sound considering how small and light it is. While the bass might not be booming, it was still a pleasant surprise to me. I'm very happy with my purchase and DataVision shipping was prompt. The attached 3.5 mm audio cable is very short (4"), so if you want to hold your music source while leaving the speaker on a table you might want to order 3.5 mm male to female extension while you're at it.

I wanted a small amp to play podcasts from my netbook so I could listen to a remote area of the house. I had some old stereo speakers, I needed an amplifier that was loud and good enough for the task, yet economical, as well as small. This little guy filled the bill on all counts. Sure, you have basic, inexpensive construction (of course) and yet remarkable performance. I use it at about a quarter of its volume and it easily fills the space. For the use I had in mind, this was perfect. In that regard: Thumb's up!

So I bought this speaker because I work in a cubicle on an office floor and I wanted to listen to my music to add a little bit of enjoyment to my dreary work days. Based on the reviews I thought I would pick this up.

Let me just say if you are just using this at home or a different scenario other than mine that it is a great speaker. It's small, compact and the sound is clear and great. When I pair it to my iPod there is a separate battery indicator that pops up on it for the Solemate that is really useful. I'd give it a 5 if I just bought it to use around the home or elsewhere but there are a couple things I don't like about it that make it difficult to use at work:

1) Everytime you turn it on it HAS to make this loud chime noise. There is no way to turn it down or off. It makes that sound. I feel awkward at work turning it on because of that. Could do without that completely.

2) The disembodied voice. If you push the battery indicator button for anything I says the battery level. REALLY LOUD. If you connect your device to it it announces that it's connected. REALLY LOUD. Again there is no way to turn it down or off. It's annoying. In a cubicle farm having that blast out is just embarassing and unnecessary.

3) The low volume. It only goes down so far. It should be able to turn all the way down. On the lowest volume its not quite low enough for me to put next to me at work. I put it behind my computer. I wish it had the ability to turn all the way down.

So, in short, it really is a great little speaker but not for what I intended to use it for. I'm going to use it for a week and see if I can live with it otherwise I will return it.

I needed an external speaker for my MacBook Pro.  I'd done some DIY repair (replacing optical drive) and in the process had knocked the external speaker socket clean off the Mac's motherboard.

This little speaker restored sound to my computer and did so wirelessly.  But even if my internal speakers still worked, I'd get one of these great little speakers. The sound is quite good, and it's super convenient and portable. I'm not sure yet how long the battery will last but I like that I can plug it into any USB port to charge its rechargeable battery.

Really good speaker for he price, sounds better with the base than without. Distorts a bit at higher volumes, but it's a solid little speaker for the price and it's range is pretty far. I would definitely recommend this little speaker.

Great little speaker I use it at work with my phone coworkers on both sides of me say it sounds great, so look to sell a couple more of them.

Awesome little speaker, with a nice punch.  Using it at my job when the time is right with construction.  Only thing that I wish it had, is a way to advance a song, mght be something I'm missing, but I have to take my phone out of my pocket to advance.

A friend of mine has one like this, and I borrowed it. After using it for a while I decided I needed to get one myself. Has great sound quality and battery life for a small speaker. Surprisingly durable as well. A great little speaker, especially for the price!!
