5 Stars Great for work!
If you are looking at this to get for your desk at work, get it. For the price, you can’t beat it. I have a Zune 120gig that I didn’t want to use headphones with all the time (I like to hear what is going on around me too) so I bought these. They don’t “dock” to your player, it has a headphone plug you can use. Also, mine came with a USB > Power adapter cord, so i set it next to my work computer and that USB port powers the speakers! The packaging they come in is a plain white box, but for the price, I would rather it be cheaper and not have fancy packaging. Plays nice and quiet or loud. I recommend it for work!
4 Stars Great value, customer service
The first speakers we received were defective. A spring was missing from the battery compartment. I emailed the company, and within 24 hours they responded and immediately sent me another. I was very pleased with the customer service! The new speakers came, and they’re very good. They’re not like an expensive speaker system, but for the price and convenience of such a small unit, they’re an excellent value. My teenager is very happy with them.
4 Stars A nice little alarm clock!
The sound quality is well above what I expected for such a small device. It actually sounds quite good!
I’ve started using it (coupled with a USB wall charger) as my alarm clock. Much nicer to wake up to a song than to BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP.
Overall, excellent for it’s price. Portable. Kind of wonky when it comes to the ipod touch because it just won’t fit (the audio out is on the bottom, not the top) but you can invert it without much ado. Alternatively, just lay it down next to it.
I like it. Four stars (not five because, well, I very rarely give 5 stars for anything)
5 Stars These are GREAT!!!!!
We looked at tons of ipod speakers,from these to the $300 dollar ones. For the low price of these plus shipping these little babies are FANTASTIC!!! Order placed received 3 days later! Amazingly fast! If you want $49 ipod speakers or $300 ones, i’m sure you would receive what you pay for. If you just need something to get the job done, for example speakers for the kids Christmas ipods, unless you really need to pump out something really loud these are perfect for one user or for a desk top! My kids love these and so do I!!!
5 Stars Great litle speakers……
As I have said in the title great little speakers, if they came in white, they would make a killing. I got mine and I bought as a joke because one of my family members bought a freaking boss Ipod speaker for $380.00 I was shock I thought she got fool by the sales rep. So now I have this speakers the cool thing is that you can used them as notebooks speakers, the audio cord attach to it is really short since it’s made only to be able to reach the Ipod next to it, so it makes hard to place next my labtop because the audio jack in my computer is in the front of the compute not in the side like it should be.
Great things aboutit
#1 It comes with a usb power cord so you can plug to your computer.
#2 It has a good bass, for the price.
#3 Extremely portable it looks like a mini boom box.
#4 Run on AAA batteries which happen to be very cheap, I have not testing how long the last but guessing by the amount of sound they put out I’m pretty sure the batteries will last that long, regardless, even if that is the case this is a good buy for sure.
I guess the only con, is that at it’s loudest setting it does not sound as great, but again this speakers are good.
I wonder what would they sound like if the casing was made of wood.

4 Stars Video Picture Not Functional
My Zune 120 Gb came with the docking station as part of a promotional offer, which offer was influential in my making the purchase in December 2008. I’ve just gotten around to ripping both music and videos to the Device but was very disappointed with the output from the docking station. The audio sounds fine but there is no video picture on my TV from either the component or composite settings. I tried several alternatives; feeding the signal through my receiver which has several video jacks, and connecting directly to my Sony TV. At all times I got sound but no video. However, there is video on the Device. So it’s not the Device nor recording that’s the problem. It is the docking station. Since no-one else has indicated a problem with this aspect of its operations, I will assume that it’s an isolated problem and thus the reason for only one drop in the star rating.
Update: Since I posted this review, I noticed two other reviewers were unable to get the video to work. Therefore, this is no longer an isolated problem as I originally thought but a defect with the product. I would change my rating to a two star if the system allowed such a change.
5 Stars Microsoft Zune Docking Station
This product works good. I had no problems setting it up. Just plug and play. Seriously it is better than apple. I refer it to everyone. Thank you
5 Stars Zune Base charger
Great product. I use this every day at work to listen to my music or the radio. I like the remote to access the different songs.
3 Stars Nice extra
Came free with the 120GB Zune and is certainly a useful addition to the player
5 Stars Great Av Pack
I got this free when I ordered my Zune 120 GB Video MP3 Player (Black) from Amazon.com and put it in my cart. First thing first is that The Av adapter is a life saver. Now I don’t have to charge my Zune only from the PC. The Dock is great and I can listen to my Zune from my bed with the remote. Your Zune can even sit on the dock and connect to your PC which is great if you don’t want to risk your Zune falling. One downside is that the Zune is not sturdy when it is in the dock so it can be taken off with ease. The remote works good and I even got it wet and it still works fine. The remote is small though and I misplaced it a couple of times. The remote is not touch sensitive like the Zune but it has the same functions. I haven’t tried the composite AV output cables (I don’t think I ever will) but this is a great investment for any Zune user. Also if you have an X-BOX 360 it works with it but only with the media player. For something that was free I use it almost everyday and I can charge my Zune at night without having to keep my PC on. Thank you Amazon!!!

1 Star haha
I got these headphones just becouse they were 50 cents. but still i was expecting a little more then what i got. when they finaly came i opened the package and took them out. When i tryed to change the rubber piece to a smaller size they broke, the whole front broke off. Still i can use them, the sound is very deep for some reason. I really think these are worth the 50 cents i gave for them 
2 Stars Very cheap, but cheap is cheap
dont sound bad but have to move the connector to get it right, imitation os the in ear ipod headphones
2 Stars Gel earplug
This item was not what I expected. The ear pieces appeared to be made of plastic, and I could hear an annoying “wrinkling noise” from the material while I was trying to listen with them. Also, they were not comfortable to wear.
3 Stars Not iPod In Ear But Good Imitation
These head phones are not the iPod In ear headphones! But good imitation .I use them for my iPod Touch and it works good, sound is great. If you put them in your ear the right way you wont hear any outside noise and there pretty loud. Overall these are good headphones for the price
1 Star You know what headphones aren’t supposed to do? SHOCK YOUR EAR. Or short out your iPod. These do both.
Product is inexpensive and arrived on time as promised. Those are the pro’s. The con’s are that the earphones shock my ear when I wear them, and regularly short out my iPod to where it won’t work unless plugged in again.
I get that this product is cheap- but not worth the possible ear damage and iPod damage.
Ouch.
ACOUSTIBUDS Premium Adapters for Earphones AND Bluetooth Headsets A new solution for in ear audio MADE IN THE USA Adapters only earphones not included White Two Pair and Two Sizes
July 20, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment
Acoustibuds offers a new approach to improve the fit and channeling of sound to the ear. Acoustibuds was awarded 2009 design and engineering showcase honors at the Consumer Electronics Show. Acoustibuds is designed for the standard earphones provided with the Apple iPod, Apple iPhone, Microsoft Zune, Sony and many other MP3 players. Acoustibuds also fits many aftermarket earphones and some of the most popular Bluetooth headsets such as the Jawbone2, BlueAnt Z9 and Apple. Not designed to fit earphones that already come with elastic in-ear fittings. Still have questions? Please visit the Acoustibuds product website for a more complete model specific list of compatible Earphones and Bluetooth, tips and instruction for use.
The Acoustibuds design revitalizes earphones to provide unparalleled retention, comfort, enriched acoustics and sound isolation. The closely spaced fins are soft and flexible to stay in the ear more securely. Even with perspiration and extreme physical activity, these fins continue to hold the earphone securely in place due to their unique profile and spacing. Superior sound isolation is also created with the fins to seal out noise from outside. Volume and bass frequencies are amplified allowing operation of your MP3 at a lower volume setting. Inside, the “Twin Cone Core” better channels the sound wave in your ear. The twin cone core guides the sound wave like a miniature acoustic horn to minimize sound impedance enriching middle and upper range frequencies. The fit of the earphone to your ear and how the sound wave is channeled inside your ear are critical to acoustic quality. Both the fin design and the twin cone core are unique to Acoustibuds and are new ideas in earphone audio technology.

1 Star A huge disappointment
These are horrible. I bought these thinking finally something that won’t pop out of my ears. I couldn’t even get them in my ears! They are way too big. Talk about a waste of money! If I could have given no stars I would have.
1 Star Has potential!
I noticed a lot of reviews talking about how these are just too big for their ears but I thought maybe they just have oddly small ears. well after ordering them I realized they were right. The larger size that comes is WAY to big almost as if it’s for a giants ears! The smaller size is still too big but I can make it work if I JAM them into my ear really hard, if I do this they do sound pretty nice and they stay in better than without but my ears start to kill after a while. I went to the manufacturers website to see if I could replace them for a size smaller but they don’t even make any other sizes, once they decide to make just one size smaller I’ll give this product a 4 maybe even 5 stars but until then they’re just not usable!
3 Stars Works pretty well but…
In practice this item item worked pretty well. It does block out background noise. The sounds though did not come out as crisp as before. It does naturally seem to increase bass. My biggest gripe is that they don’t stay on to the earbud to well while not being worn. They easily fall off the earbud when not in use such as in your pocket or hanging around one’s neck. They did however stay on securely when worn.
1 Star If crap and garbage have a kid his name will be ACOUSTIBUDS
The first question is: Are this so bad? Answer: They are worst!!! I can’t even begin to explain how disappointed I am. For me is not that the ACOUSTIBUDS does not work properly or as advertise. The fact is that they not work at all because they cant even fit into my ears. The size 5 is really big. Maybe if you have huge ears they will be great for you but otherwise stay away.
4 Stars acoustibuds and wind
Acoutibuds are very comfortable,sound great, and stay in even with lots of motion.I did however,find a down side.I use them for bicycling and found that in strong winds,say 10 to 20 mph there is such loud turbulance that no amount of volume helps.but they work well cruising at fifteen miles an hour with no more than 5 mile winds.All in all,a great product i plan to keep useing.
