X-mini Capsule Speakers



Here comes a pocket-sized savior for laptop owners who have so far been used to the tinny sound their small speakers put out. The X-mini runs the danger of being overlooked, for it is tiny. I'm normally critical of anything that looks suspiciously small (and therefore presumably incapable of driving sound), but in this case I was happily proved wrong. Indeed, I was pleasantly surprised by its performance.

The speakers are a one-stop solution for all those travelers who are looking to carry something less weighty. I was impressed by the words "Hearing is believing" written on the cover.

The player can easily fit anywhere in your laptop bag, and if it’s your office desktop that you are buying the speaker for, you need worry only about locating it amidst all the clutter. The mid section can be unscrewed to reveal a jack in the box, quite literally, for the speaker extends a bit vertically. In performance, this trick only guarantees a slightly improved bass response.
