Very fun little speaker system.......2007-11-15

I got this for my 11 year old daughter, it is perfect as she can carry it around and play her music anywhere. the sound isn't perfect, but sounds good.

Great for the beach.......2007-08-22

I bought the stereo case for my beach vacation & I used it every day. It kept my iPod safe from the elements & everyone in my group liked the sound. It even worked well as a player in my bedroom. Several people used it to charge their iPods while on vacation. No problems. I'm looking to buy a few more for Christmas presents.

Good for the Beach Go'er.......2007-08-16

This is a good product. I personally bought it specifically for the beach. I was looking online for about 2 weeks for something that would keep my I-pod video safe from the blowing sand and this does it perfectly. Obviously it would be great if you could see the ipod, but if you want to then just open up the case. I'm fine with just putting the little guy on shuffle and if I dont like the song just pressing next. I also bring it into the office and it can be quiet enough for your enjoyment without bothering your co-workers. Overall I'd say buy it, you know the good looking ladies (or fellas) will want to sit next to you on the beach if your playing some good music ;-) and you'll have your Ipod nice and protected.

Not the Best .......2007-08-13

Pros:

-Fairly Sturdy
-Waterproof
-Charges Ipod (When plugged in)
-Lightweight & very portable

Cons

-Poor sound quality
-Controls on front are finicky (Only work half the time)
-Very bright front light
-Ipod isn't accesible when unit is zipped up
-Awkward Design

Design is an issue.......2007-07-28

No comprehensive review here..... just a few quick comments:

1) The unit "feels" well made.
2) It has decent sound and some nice features.
3) Unfortunately, your iPod gets zipped up inside the unit
so you cannot see the screen and THAT is a deal breaker
for me.

I'll be returning mine for a refund tomorrow.
I hope this helps.

Customer Reviews:

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.

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.

WARNING: It drains the AAA batteries even when it is turned off ! The power button is backwards !

++ PROS ++
+ Lightweight, weighs less than a pound !
+ Foldable, can be easily packed in a backpack or purse, even a large 3 ring binder can hold them
+ Battery powered, decent battery time, we get at least 12 - 16 hours of usage off 4 Duracell AAA's

-- CONS --
- The AAA batteries will drain even if you don't turn it on, we went on vacation for a week and inserted a fresh set of batteries before we left. When we came back the sound started fading then they drained in less than 30 minutes !!
- The power switch, when in the Off position an orange section of paint strip is exposed, red and orange normally means "ON" but not in this device.
- Bass is really distorted, but what do you expect from speakers so small, treble is decent and has to be maxed out before it starts to sound tingy.

I wanted a set of iPod speakers which didn't require AC power, like these because they have decent output for something the size of a medium size cucumber. Use them all the time, you can tell when the batteries are getting low because the sound sounds notably distorted, almost like a weak radio frequency.

I'd buy them again if I had to replace it.
