Question: My speakers are thoroughly charged. What do I have to do to get them to start playing???
Document: We wanted something very lightweight and compact to plug our iPod or MP3 player into while on the road and this pair of speakers fit the bill perfectly. They also do a great job, for their size, of stereo sound reproduction. The rechargeable internal batteries have a good long playing time before needing to be charged through any USB power source.
Good price compared to other places. Really does put out a lot of sound for how little the speakers are. I've had another ihome before that was horrible and doesn't even compare to this one. The other one was only $20 and I bought a cheap $10 set at the store and they were awful too. It's really true that you get what you pay for. Only issue I've had is when they're playing too long they will randomly shut off.
These speakers are nice, but nothing more than that.. The sound quality is nice, but at high volumes, so sounds get distorted. I like playing to backing tracks at home, so i needed speakers a little louder than my laptop. These are louder, but not as loud as i want. They definately make a big difference when plugged into my ipad... so they're nice for that. But as you probably know already, they do get cluttery with the uncomfortable cable.
It was more of a hassle than anything.The sound quality of these little speakers are great for playing Smooth Jazz and mellow radio stations that do not use a lot of deep bass. These would make nice little speakers to use in the office but sadly, I could not get over the cable issue. Even after I tried bundling the cables it was still very awkward and not very visually appealing.I was able to get a refund and purchased a Memorex brand Pure Play portable speaker with happier results.
I have been wanting these particular speakers for some time, and for the price they are certainly a great deal. I am little disappointed by the fact that they don't last longer between needing charging, but when charged they have a great sound quality. They do get fuzzy and make a terrible scratching sound when they do need to be recharged which can be frustrating because it comes on suddenly, there is no warning that the power is running low.
That's right...playing music directly from my iPhone out performed these speakers. Even though you get two speakers for this price, the xminis at a little more for one speaker are a better deal, with much better sound quality, bass and volume. Don't waste your money...spend a little extra and get exponentially better quality.
After a bit more than two hours, the speakers' lights have turned blue indicating they're fully charged. Required turning the speakers off and back on while still connected to the laptop to get both speakers to turn from red to blue. Not bad.04/24/12 Edit: Been using these little guys for quite awhile with both my iPad 2 and my Kindle Fire. They continue to perform flawlessly.
They are ok. The seperation between the 2 speakers is not far enough, when playing loud they distort more than the last set we had which was the 77 series. We only bought the new ones because the wiring on the old set died, BUT when I use the new sets wires they still work great. Would like to know if iHome just sells the wires.
Let me start off by saying what I wanted in speakers. I needed something very small for my bedside cabinet. I also wanted to be able to use my ipod as an alarm, and wake up to some type of music instead of just 'beep beep' noises. I also was interested in something being easily portable for when I travel.My search for speakers:  I looked all around.
I bought these a few months ago, and I have good and bad things to say about these speakers. I guess I'll start with the bad.I have only owned these for 4-5 months and one of the speakers has already broken... I can't even say I brought them camping and they didn't make it. No, these have only been brought outside once for about 3 hours while it was bright and sunny and they sat on my porch.
Answer: Once they are charged,connect them to your ipad etc and be sure to flip on the "on" switch on each speaker  May be a loose contact so unplug and try again. Hope this helps.
