Coby CS-MP77 75-Watt High Performance MP3 Speaker System

For the money, this is pretty darn good.

I'm happy with what I paid and as an audio engineer, that's not something easily accomplished. I'm fairly picky with the equipment I buy, but I needed a somewhat portable set of speakers for my iPod and Macbook, something under $30, that can fill a 10'x10' room. This system fits the bill.

This is *NOT* a stereo or bookshelf system, it's just a set of speakers! Keep that in mind when you go to buy it.

Plug and play, but be sure to fiddle around with the volume and bass knobs on the back of the woofer (go with mid level setting first), then go to your EQ settings on your iPod, laptop, etc. Taking advantage of EQ presets or your own presets will give you the best from this little gem.

I really do suggest making a few customized EQ settings in iTunes (or whichever program you use) for this speaker set. You will get more out of it that way.

This is not a heavy, bass boost, butt kicking system...Read more

I have had other Coby products in the past and they were junk, so I was skeptical when buying. I bought this to use with my Sansa Clip, and it just blew me away. You can turn the bass up loud enough that it will rattle things on your shelves, I never expected so much power from such a little thing. (Its only about the width of my hand.) I would recommend this to anyone looking for a 2.1 system.

I picked this speaker system for my daughtyer to play her mp3 player in her room. She is very pleased with the sound she gets from it. Her brother who is a music maniac didn't believe the sound coming from her room from such an inexpensive product.
