User Ratings and Reviews
2 Stars Ok but not what I needed!
I’m a late user to this type of entertainment…I still use CD’s but was recently given an Ipod and don’t know how I lived without it for so long!
My wife and I travel and I thought I might be able to find a portable speaker system so that we could enjoy our music when away from home.
This is my second purchase of this type of speaker and as with the first…THIS ISN’T WHAT YOU WANT!
The sound is clear and clean but if your not on top of it you can’t hear a thing.
I’m sure it would and can be useful in a different setting; one where you would only need your volume to be at a whisper.
I plan on keeping this unit for those times when using my ear buds isn’t the best of ideas but this unit wouldn’t fit my need say in a hotel room when I’m trying to set the mood with a little music.
5 Stars sounds fantastic, small, portable, perfect
yeah, my home stereo is mcintosh, so i know what the music is supposed to sound like, and this thing more than holds it’s own for the price. it’s great that it’s just one and not two speakers (easy to carry), also, it get’s the little ambient sound and subtleties. the “eq” is better than on my car stereo, as the sound is very balanced across the spectrum. everyone raves. a friend had it, and i had to get it. if you’re thinking about it, and wondering, i’m saying, get it. perfect for on the road, at work, outdoors, etc.
1 Star Was ok until it stopped working.
The sound is about what you’d expect for a portable speaker. Ok mids and highs, no bass. Not very loud. You really need to be very close to it to hear it well. Also it has no volume control. The only way to change the volume is to adjust the volume on your mp3 player itself. The cord to plug it into your mp3 player is too short at only 9 inches long. It does come with a carrying case and a lanyard that you can attach to the unit itself for carrying. Overall, I was moderately satisfied with it until it stopped working completely after 1 month of use.
5 Stars great portable speaker
I have purchased already three of the Altec Lansing iM-237 speakers. After my first purchase and realizing how amazing this little speaker was I got two more as gifts for my family and friends. For such a small thing, this speaker has a very nice bass and clear sound. I love taking it with me when I travel. I even started using it outside when I sit in a yard. The speaker comes in a nice zip-cover so it is easy to store it.
1 Star Defected
May be i was not lucky, but the speaker was defected.
Made annoying noise after 2 minutes of playing.
Well, I returned the speaker.
