Good Cheap Portable Speakers

I am a proud 3 year owner of a pair of NS-555's and I have to tell you, if you are in the 2 to 3thousand dollar price range for a set of main speakers, you would simply feel robbed if you don't at the very least give these speakers a good audition! Read all the reviews on these speakers...user reviews...all of them, not one is a negative one. In fact all of them say the same thing...these speakers are ridiculously cheap for how good they sound! I listen to lots of jazz and blues...two channel music. I have an HK AVR130 and a Rotel RDV1060 and a Sonicwave Pure Glass optical interconnect. These speakers reveal detail and nuances that seem to float in front of you! Bass is tight and surprisingly deep. It took me a while to angle them right, taking into account the wave guide horns that do just that guide the sound, to achieve the optimum soundstage imaging. I can say that after some slight adjustments you can really achieve great soundstaging!And this to all of you that thinks the Japanese can't make a great sounding speaker....NOT! Its now time for the Europeans to make a speaker that sounds this good...for this cheap!!!! Yeah right!The NS-555's are as good as any speaker under 2 grand a pair easy! And none are more beautiful! Problems Encountered: The only thing to recommend is to turn the speakers up side down right out of the box so you can install the corner supports. They are very well designed and effectively stabilizes the speaker by expanding the footprint. The speakers are not light so be careful and it would be advised to have a soft towel or carpet under the speakers when you unpack them.

Cheap, portable, well made, easy to use. What's not to love.

Cheap portable drive that works well

I use this as part of a portable lighting setup with remote triggered flashes. It is a cheap, well made, good looking lighting results umbrella. It efficiently yields good, soft light.

- using it as hight adjustable stand for portable projector around offices and portable light - light, cheap simple, good structure - the tri-legs deployment is adjustable thats relly cool - for lighter items but pretty stable when deployed fully - slightly bends when loaded with heavier equipment - not design for it.

Use for portable PA connected to Alto TX10 speakers. Clean sound, good controls, effects are a welcome addition. USB connection allows computer connectivity as needed.

I just bought one of the JBL Charge 5 portable speakers. I had never seen one or heard one before now. I read a bunch of reviews of several different makes & models. To be honest, I went with JBL because a friend of mine in California has one and likes his. OMG! I took it out to the lake and I was freaking amazed at how good it sounds!! No kidding. I'm not easily impressed. I figured it would just be a step up from tinny iPhone speakers. Wrong! It thumped! **doing my happy happy joy joy dance** I like it when I feel like I've made a good decision when I buy stuff.

I brought the battery because I had them in the past, and they serve me good with my Beats portable speakers, and they last very long. The service with this company is very very good, I had a question and they answer it quickly. Highly recommend and am from the UK by the way. Review by Merv UK
