Just what I was hoping for.......2007-08-24
I'm impressed with this little thing. The case is well-made and has a very solid feel. The Nano fits perfectly into the skin and into the MiniBlaster. I didn't have difficulties with the fit like others mentioned. Getting the Nano out takes some pushing, but that's the way it should be. You don't want it falling out on it's own and hitting the pavement. All the Nano controls are accessible. The front, circular control (volume/scroll) works fine through a silicon skin and is very protected.
The reason we buy this thing is for sound and size. Size and weight are impressively minimal. You won't beat that anywhere. As for sound, it's not a home entertainment center or a Bose IPod system - it's a tiny little device that offers maximum portability. If you can bring your Bose system along with you, then do it. If you need something small and more portable, then read on.
The sound has a distinct clarity. Mids to highs are crisp and well separated. What you loose is bass. It's attenuated, but not dull or muddy. I wasn't expecting strong bass with a frequency response of 450Hz to 20KHz. It's not built for it and shouldn't be expected.
It's made, as others have said, for you and a couple of friends in an environment without too much ambient noise. If you are looking for a system that you can play at a beech party with a big group of friends, keep looking, because this isn't it. Too many voices chatting away will drown this little thing out.
In a reasonably quiet room or out on the trail, you get enough volume to really enjoy the music. It's loud enough to hear the detail in the sound. It even gets too loud for conversations and has to be turned down. Don't get me wrong, the neighbors won't be calling or stomping on the floor. It has what it needs to fill the niche that it's designed for.
I personally like the sound with the EQ set to "Small Speakers" - seems like a good balance for Classic Rock which I tend to listen to the most.
If you want a small, light and very portable speaker system to free you from headphones and make portable music a social experience between friends again, then you are onto something.
Enjoy!
Great for use while traveling.......2007-08-11
I wanted to be able to listen to podcasts and my own music while commuting and so first purchased (for $80) an FM converter that plugged into the lighter and my iPod and then matched an unused frequency to play what was on the iPod. The sound wasn't great and it changed depending on where I was driving. I spent a lot of time trying to find the right static frequency and match it with the device. In the short time that I tried it out I had to switch frequencies twice.
So, I looked for a speaker. I decided that it wouldn't be a disaster to buy something at this price to try even if it didn't work great. It was what I was looking for! I can use it in the car and also other places where I want to play what is on my ipod so that others can hear. It is not great sound quality, but it is much better than what I was getting with the FM converter and much easier. I can either use batteries or the AC adaptor (I already have a device that converts the cigarette lighter into AC power).
It is a great solution for what I was looking for.
Good Product.......2007-07-26
I recommend this product over similar products that are outrageously expensive. Powerful sound for it's size and easy to use. Great value.
Wow, under 15 bucks including shipping!.......2007-07-04
Don't expect too much bass out of -any- tiny speakers but as a way to turn your nano into a sort of 21st century "transistor radio" equivalent with stereo audio and a better sound quality, this little thing is superb. Talk radio podcasts are delivered very clearly and music can be enjoyed to an extent especially if you choose an appropriate EQ setting on your nano. Volume capability is decent, just don't expect to entertain an audience bigger than about two or three. Battery life is good for the 4x AAA batteries.
JLab Audio.......2007-06-08
The sound is good from the Miniblaster, but getting my Ipod in and out of it is a real chore!! It is very difficult to do. It not only is very hard to place in the miniblaster, but getting it out is even worse. I like the size of it as it doesn't take up a lot of room when I place it on the counter. Just difficult to use. It is also hard to adjust the volume with the "skin" on it.

Great sound quality for such a tiny package.......2007-11-05
I bought the miniblaster portable speaker in December 2006. I was amazed at the quality of the sound for such tiny speakers. Now, almost one year later, the speakers are still going strong. If you are looking for good quality pocket size speakers, these are a good choice.
A Great iPod Speaker........2007-08-08
It is tiny, compact (no wiggley parts to break off) it runs on batteries as well as AC and I am completely delighted with it.JLab Audio MBBG1 Miniblaster Portable Speaker for iPod Nano (Gen 1) - Black
STOP THINKING AND BUY IT.......2007-07-28
Best bang for the buck...i read all the reviews. just buy it. you can't beat $15 shipped. it gets the job done.
Excellent Company.......2007-06-11
My 11 year old daughter saved her $$ and did some on line research and ended up buying these. She loved them for the size which allowed her to take them into bed, on the bus etc. The audio in my opinion was "OK", but she was very happy.
We had bought them along with their noise reducing ear buds which I use while traveling in planes. I can wear them x- country very comfortably
Unfortunately we had technical problems and contacted JBL. I happened to email them on a Sunday afternoon and in about 15 minutes a real person (Josh) responded. A real person.... on a Sunday!!
He resolved the issue- which ultimately required a warranty replacement.
I cannot say enough good things about this company and Josh. I woudl buy their products again without hesitation
What a disappointment........2007-05-26
On my first foray into looking for the perfect mini speaker for my Ipod, I bought the Aiptek Mist for Nano (not realizing it only works with Gen 2 Nano)---boy, was it a cute little thing. Disappointed they don't make that product for Gen 1 Nanos, I searched Amazon for the perfect replacement mini speaker that would work with my Nano Gen 1. The JLab Miniblaster had 4 stars. Folks, speak up, because I cannot be the only one who was shocked by the low quality of this product!!
*When I first plugged it in, you couldn't hear anything because of interference from my TV remote!
*When I finally heard sound it was fuzzy at best and never got much better
*The volume level is only a smidgen better than what I can hear through my earbuds when they are out of my ears!
I read and re-read the direction and am convinced I did everything properly. I even tried it with battery power only, in the house, out of the house. No luck. This is a lousy product and I am giving it one star. This is being shipped back today.

Customer Reviews:
By far the best Bluetooth headset I have used........2007-12-11
I have owned several bluetooth headsets. My ears are sensative and comfort is important. This headset fits perfect and the sound and mic are super. I have never had a complaint using this headset. It paired with my iPhone with no problems. It has a long battery life and is by far the most comfortable headset I have ever worn. I have used it for 6 months and no complaints.
Looks good, Feels Flimsy.......2007-11-09
I got this in July 2007 and when I first got it to sync it up with my W810i, I was really pleased. The headset sits on the ear OK and it doesn't protrude out of your ear like a cocoon. The speaker works pretty well inside your car and indoors but if you are outside and it's a windy day, you had better put your hand across your ear because the person you're talking to, won't hear hardly a thing. Battery life on this headset is above average as the average talk time is between 4-5 hours on a full charge.
Fast forward to November 2007 and one day I was putting the earpiece over my ear and the rubber connective portion of the earpiece ripped off from the silver battery part. It is currently en route back to Sony after calling them. They will be sending me a new one once they receive my broken one.
Bottom line: Great looking long lasting battery Sony Ericsson Bluetooth headset seeks gentle handling owner for sensitive fragile technology. If you get one, make sure you get an empty Altoids box to put it in when you are not wearing it.
doesn't fit my phone.......2007-09-19
I used it with my Sony Ericsson W600i. It was comfort to wear, but easy to fall off than others with hook. Sound quality was relatively low.
Not bad!!.......2007-05-13
Works great, short distance less than 3 meters. Not as comfortable as promised, but tolerable.
The best feature is the design.
Good concept..........2007-05-12
This was an excellent earpiece, except it has no noise reduction. Everything else about it is great...the design for odd ears like mine keep it on the ear well. Noise reduction is vital, though, and I am surprised this late of a model didn't have it.

if they can't get comfort right.......2007-07-14
buyer beware, i know. and i read the reviews before i bought these and thought, can't be that bad right? well i'm afraid it is.
i just can't use them. they give me a headache because they pinch, just as one reviewer said, right in front of the ears, just below your temples. it's like getting a sinus headache right around where you eardrums are. and i have an average head.
philips seems to have gotten two things wrong. first the U of the band is too long, you are stuck with either forcing it into your neck or letting it ride up your ears. second, they curved the earpieces in too much, so instead of a nice U-shape, you have a C-shape with the brunt of the clasping force pinching into your temporal bone. whoever designed it must have had a very long thin head and was lying down!
not to mention, these really are ugly, not sleek and flat as you might expect from the picture they give me. if they sat right, they might look fine, but sitting rather uncomfortably on top of my ears, they really look terrible, like an explosion of white plastic under my hair.
if you already bought it and it doesn't fit you, the only consolation is that the plastic is pliable, so if you sit on it for a couple hours, that might just flatten it out a bit to be useable.. i'm very disappointed..
Great... if you have a huge head.......2007-06-19
I got these expecting them to be of good quality because they are made by Phillips, but boy was I wrong. I was so happy to receive them; I immediately ripped open the package and put them on my head. As soon as I had put them on, I had to take them off. They were awful! They did not fell right at all. They twist in on your head and are horribly uncomfortable. I have an average size head and didn't ever think this would be a problem. My husband said they were fine, but my kids agreed with me. I got these to replace the ear buds because those won't stay in my ear, but after I got them I went back to my ear buds and returned them as soon as possible. These may be good for men, but I would not recommend them for women or children.
Best
<$10 headphones I've ever heard.......2007-05-20
I bought these headphones to replace my broken KSC-75's, and my ears weren't prepared. The second I put these on, I was blown away. In my opinion, these are better than the KSC-75's, the highly praised $15 headphones made by Koss. The SHS391's have a much fuller bass, probably because of the headband. The mids and highs are very comparable to the KSC-75's, but probably not as open.
These are very comfortable headphones. I can barely feel them when they're on my head, other than when the band rubs against my neck. Very lightweight, but very secure. I haven't worn them running or anything, but I doubt anyone would have trouble with them falling off, unless the person has a small head.
For $9, these can't be beat. I'd take them over my brother's $50 Audio-Technica headphones.
Excellent.......2007-05-16
I love these headphones. I two pair now. One I use for my computer, one I use for mu iPod. They sound excellent. The weight is very light. These headphones don't hurt my ears after wearing them for hours. Others start to pinch my ears and make my ears red after 30 minutes or so. Best headphones I've bought in a long time. I go through about 3 pair of headphones a year. I currently have 14 pair that do not work, mostly all Sonys. If I was to buy again, I would buy these without a doubt. If I could not find these, I would probably by KOSS.
Good for the price.......2007-02-27
A pretty good headphone for the price. It does "float" around the ears and the frame of the headphone does rub against the back of my neck - causing a bit of discomfort from time to time while I am sitting down. Overall, I am pleased with the the value - if I wanted to $100 headphone quality, I would not buy this one but this works just fine for gym, office, and general usage (and I will not go heart-broken if I lost/broke this headphone).
