    These speakers are worth more than £50!

    • Written by from STAINES

    Okay so I got these out the box and was hoping for enough sound to allow me to watch movies on my new Samsung display I bought to hook up to my new MacBook.

    I was so shocked when I turned these on, not only do they look great, come with a carry case and charge so they dont drain power when using them as portables - the sound room filling yet ambient at lower volumes and look is eye popping.

    When they were turned up I had to put my ear to the MacBook speakers to see if the sound was coming out of them as well because the iHome speakers were powerful.

    I can honestly say that proportionally these are just as good as my bose SoundDock and that's saying something because I LOVE my SounDock!     …More

    1 Answer

    Best Answer

    Yes.
    The new iPod nano, with larger screen has an industry-standard 3.5mm headphone jack. From the speaker page, I found this:
    "Dual audio/USB cable for connecting to audio device and USB power source"
    ...which indicates they have a mutant cable included which has both a USB AND a 3.5mm headphone lead - USB strictly for charging them.     …More
