this is a faulty speaker. good product I really like it. I guess my only issue is that some of the water sounds are similar...but other than that I find the chimes and crickets nice for the evening hours....cool design too A Quality Product I bought this alarm clock/white noise machine for a gift for my hubby and he absolutely loves it. I was originally looking tinto just a white noise machine but a separate alarm clock just cluttered his nightstand. This slim design, dual purpose unit is perfect. My husband loves all the choices of sounds and being able to dim the display. It was a very easy set up. We both have been very pleased. A Soother with some Shortcomings I bought two of these-- one for myself and another one to give a friend for Christmas. Ive had several "sound machines" for the bedside over the years. The sounds from this one are much like the others, distinctly artificial and repetitive in tone and pattern. The controls to set alarm and time are a bit fussy. Setting the volume is a "stepped" process--the volume does not go up and down continuously but in increments, which means one level may be too low, the other too high. This device is OK, but not spectacular. love this!! i received this from my sister as a gift and I just love it ...I turn it on when i go to bed and it just puts me to sleep in no
