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.
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.

The unit sports backlit LCD and a built-in AM/FM radio with 20 station presets (10 FM, 10 AM) for 1-button tuning to your favorite morning programs. Drift-free PLL (phase-lock-loop) tuning gives you clear reception every time.. It comes with hangers to hang from the shower head or curtain rail, or it can be wall mounted with the included bracket.

CD listening features include 20-track programmable memory and 1/all repeat--just the thing while you're perfecting your rendition of "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" (surely one of the greatest shower songs of all time). A minijack .125-inch headphone jack lets you listen in private, but we don't recommend using headphones in the shower--bathrooms are private enough already.
The player runs on 6 C batteries (not included) or AC power using a supplied AC/DC adapter (also not for shower use). The unit is backed by a 90-day manufacturer's warranty.
What's in the Box
CD player, hangers, mounting bracket, a base stand, an AC/DC power adapter, and a user's manual.
Customer Reviews:
Buy a Different Shower Radio.......2007-01-14
I have owned this radio for a few years, and have these complaints:
-Battery life sucks. I stopped using the CD feature because the batteries would run out so fast, but even without playing CDs the batteries last only 3 months with the radio being used for less than 15 minutes/day. It takes SIX C-batteries, so it gets expensive.
-The "light" feature is useless. There is a button to press that is supposed to illuminate the LCD display to show the time or station. It illuminates the LCD display from each side with a little light, rather than backlighting the LCD display. It does not make seeing the LCD any easier.
-Poor station memory tuning. The only way to cycle through the stored stations is to press a button which goes one way through the stations. For example, if you are listening to the station stored in slot one, then go up to the station in slot two, the only way to go back to station one is to cycle through station three, four, five, etc. until you hit ten and then one again. Annoying!
-I found the reception to be ok, but not great.
-The radio is a bit large. Granted it has a CD player, but it still seems very large for a shower.
I finally bought a new shower radio - one with no CD player since I didn't use it anyway - and am much happier and richer because I don't have to replace the batteries all the time!
Only lasted a short time.......2006-03-08
This radio only worked well for about 6 months, then it died. I replaced the batteries with brand new ones, and it still wouldn't work. It was never dropped, but stopped working. I only got some of the stations, it couldn't pick up a lot of them. It is a little big and bulky, especially for the shower area. I've had other radios (non shower type) for 15 years and never had a problem. I would never buy another one for the shower, they just don't last.

Broke right of the box.......2005-01-04
I got this as a Xmas gift and it has yet to work right. I tried using it in the bathroom and for the first 5min the radio actually worked then nothing, just shut off. I haven't been able to turn it on since then. Neither radio or CD function will turn on which is odd considering the clock and backlight function still work fine. Don't know if there's some special buttons I'm supposed to be using besides the On/Off one. Also the model doesn't appear on the Jensen website, am planning on exchange for another model.
CD-R/RW?.......2004-12-02
Does anyone know if this item plays burned CD's? Doesn't say anything about CD-R/RW/MP3 playback, so I would asssume it will not be compatible with recorded discs....can anyone verify that for me?
THANKS!!!

Weather Band reception.......2007-04-26
I just bought one of these. It did not matter what direction I turned it, what postion the antenna was placed, or how much aluminum foil I put on the antenna, the weather station would not come in. Hate to put my safety in the performance of this product.
Storm Alert Radio (Jensen MR-600).......2007-02-16
The item works perfectly if you do not place it near other mechanical devices, i.e. TV, air purifier, elec. clock, etc. Fortunately it hasn't alerted us yet so that will remain to be experienced. You have to turn it a
number of directions until you get the best reception, then leave it in that position.

Cheap Cheap Cheap.......2007-05-01
I purchased this to play books on tape in my car (cd player only in car). Big mistake. Cassette play worked for less than 1 day and chewed up a cassette that did not belong to me. Spend a little more money and get a better product!!
DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM!!.......2007-03-30
The Jensen MCP-150 is a piece of junk. Unless you are only ordering it for its radio function, my advice is for you to make sure you avoid purchasing it. I bought it because I was looking for a compact, inexpensive cassette player. But as soon as I took it out of the box and popped a tape in, I was very disappointed, because it played the cassette with what I would describe as an extremely "wavey" sound... constantly fluctuating up and down in tone and pitch. It sounded like what one might expect a cassette player to sound like if it were submerged in a bucket of water. I don't know how these companies expect to get any return customers when the products they manufacture don't even work properly.
it's great.......2004-06-13
it has great sound but is not a boombox. it's tape player does't work very well for me. it takes 4 C batt. to go everywhere.

fantastic value for the money.......2006-01-27
After my car got broken into, I had to go shopping for a new mp3 cd receiver. I wanted a receiver that would play both mp3/wma formats, and have auxiliary inputs, which this Jensen does have. The best part though, was the price. The sound is great out of this thing, and I like it better than the receiver I had before. My only nitpick with this receiver is that the clock display is TINY. I'm talking miniscule. You might get into an accident if you try to read the time as you're driving.
