JBL On Tour Portable Speaker System ( Black )

Comment: I love these speakers. I've owned a JBL On Tour for almost two years until it broke due to repeated accidental yanking of the cord, but I bought a replacement because it looks slick, it sounds good for its size, and can be had for half the "normal" price if you search hard enough. A springy cord would be a good improvement for those of us who install these speakers on a bicycle. I have it on my handle bar giving me clear sounds just an ear-shot away so I no longer have to wear headphones or ear buds when cruising on hot summer days. Riding a bicycle with bulky headphones gets sweaty and of course it's dangerous but I gotta have music when I ride my bike and JBL On Tour provides my music addiction in style. I maybe the only one in my town that have a sound system on a bicycle so people on the street who see and hear these speakers when I cruise by are always impressed.

Comment: I am not sure if you can buy this JBL product any longer. This little speaker does a great job. It will not get so loud so as to drive you out of a room but it does a great job and travels very well. The volume is great for music inside or out - used at the beach and in the house.S/N is vey low and the batteries I use are rechargable - I get about 20 hours out of the batteries at a med volume level.

If you lke good sound (I am a two channel tube person - highend listening) if you know tubes then you know what I am talking about. This little speaker does a great job for what it is - you cannot go wrong if you can find this product.

Cheers!!

Comment: I've owned this speak for over a year. The sound is so amazing with such a small size. This is also good for outdoor, even when turn up the volume, sound quality doesnt change. Love it II

Comment: I've owned two sets of these little gems for exactly one year today. I bought them for travel initially for my laptop & MP3 player. I was impressed with the range and clarity of the sound. One thing they lacked was separation (a fair trade-off for portability). I got to thinking that if I used two sets of them I might solve the problem (I know what you're thinking - A/B on the right and A/B on the left??? That's not separation!). Well, not so fast. What I did was wyed the L & R together with an RCA 'Y' adapter on each set (giving me mono input to each pair) and then used one unit for each stereo output. The result is four independently powered speakers (two left & two right) for a total of 6 watts per channel. I use them mounted vertically on a home-made bracket that sits out of sight behind the laptop screen. The small size of the speakers belies the full tonality I'm enjoying (no subwoofer required, either). I'd give them 6 stars if I could. I think you'll have a challenge matching my little setup for under $100.

Comment: I have a couple of boats, I cart this stereo out on the boats, to the beach, and I have velcro'ed it to my beach bike when I ride. It is totally awesome and portable and the batteries last quite long.

I have 2-3 friends that have asked "Where can get one"
