However, should any be clear that such Mini Speakers neither Hifi speakers nor good Kopfhöhrern can even come close to a candle.
Therefore, one should choose first, for what purpose you will have a loud speaker.
Since there are mini mini mini for your pocket, medium and quite large specimens.
With me in the foreground stand the sound, followed closely by mobility. Because the small part of the morning should rid the bathroom of the terrible Advertising sprinkling through the radio and on the move allow autogenous training in groups.
Unfortunately, the next shop for a sound comparison is far away, so I tortured myself by youtube and private recordings of different goodness belongs, there's absolutely nothing to be found on the different pages Manufacturer.
A really lovely sound comparison of 4 mini speakers by Altec as a video, see the review by Constantin H. for SDI iHome iHM63 ()
Result: The Mini's were not at all convinced by the sound forth and for expensive, large department such as JBL on tour one needs to have hand luggage.
Best has given me so personally like the Altec Lansing by sound and size.
Positives:
- Pretty good sound, good bass and clear treble
- Good workmanship. The cover of the actual speaker top is made of sturdy metal
- Non-slip and good state
- Medium-sized, fits in your pocket
- Round, no corners and edges
- Slide switch with tactile + LED forward and not down
- Optical warning at low battery level
- Easy battery / battery change
Negatives:
- Very short cable
Some reviews indicated the battery compartment as negative and even addressed as ecologically problematic. If one chooses solely on battery power, this is true surely.
However, I use commercially available battery's how many other devices (digital camera, remote control, wireless mouse, wireless keyboard, etc) also.
I can very often recharge via an external charger, eg the battery's Amazon to 1000x or the Sanyo Eneloop to 1500x
In addition, I always have a reserve to change what is not possible for devices with a fixed battery which is charged via USB.
Because each battery does not last forever and the manufacturer of the devices with fixed battery via USB charging option not specify how often the battery can be charged at most.
Actually, therefore, the soldered-in battery (now even on mobile's !!!) environmentally problematic, since dead battery the whole device can be disposed of along with it.
That as for thought for all of your purchase decisions, because I personally believe that this USB charging trend with fixed battery's actually only serves to more quickly generate revenue producers when after 1-2 years instead of replacement battery, a new device needs to be purchased equal ,
So I hope to be able to just have the Altec Lansing Orbit iMT227 last a lifetime, because a battery can not limit its service life, more than my clumsiness in handling.
