 Fulfills it's purpose July 31, 2010
H. Mokhtar (Bay Area)
This speaker is in no way a substitute for regular computer speakers, but for a portable speaker, it's awesome.
The size makes it ultra-portable. It looks great and feels great in your hands.
This is my first ever portable speaker and I was skeptical about buying it since I wasn't sure whether or not such a small thing would be loud enough to my liking, but sure enough, I was impressed after using it on my macbook and portable mp3 player. It's loud enough for a room and it will satisfy those around you when normal speakers aren't available. It provides enough sound for a room, but of course not so much that those speaking will have to yell to get heard.
As for sound quality. Don't expect the full sound spectrum from this speaker. Be realistic about it and know what you're buying it for. With that in mind, one should buy this as a substitute for built-in laptop speakers, built-in monitor speakers, built-in cell phone speakers when you want to play music, etc...
Great travel companion July 29, 2010

Overall: a great travel companion - compact with very good sound, and it's rechargeable.

Very good sound
Good bass
Good volume
Rechargeable battery
Cons:
Haven't found any yet.
I have owned this X-II Mini Capsule for a couple of months and have taken it with me on some long business trips in Europe. I have been very pleased with this speaker and consider it a great travel companion. I use an iPod Touch and primarily listen to jazz, classic rock and classical music, and have found the speaker performs very well for jazz and classical and pretty well for classic rock. The limits are bass and volume. Bass is surprisingly good for such a small unit, but because it is a small unit, it does have a limit. Same for volume. You won't bring down the roof with this unit, but in a hotel room it's perfectly fine. It has an on-off switch and volume controls, and a short cable to connect to an mp3 player or computer headphone jack. One big plus in my mind is the rechargeable battery. The battery lasts a pretty long time, and all it takes to recharge is to connect it to a computer via a USB port (cable included). No carrying around AAA batteries. And note that because no batteries are required, there are cost savings over the life of the speaker - why it almost pays for itself! Add in the nifty carrying pouch, and this is a winner.
 Great choice!!! July 25, 2010

I had an X-mini Menotek X-MINI Capsule Speaker before, then i lost it and decided to get an X-mini IIX-Mini II Capsule Speaker this time around...the product is wonderful; the sound quality and loudness in unbelievable, it comes with a carrying case and battery life is ok which justifies why its quite heavier than the XI. I have not exhausted the battery since i got it, so can't really tell how long it last, but i ran it for 4Hrs on battery without a glitch. Will buy this again in near future.
Thanks
 Hmmming noise July 22, 2010

The speaker is very convenient and sounds ok. The major turn off is the hmm noise when the speaker is not on and when it is on. Its very annoying. The concept is good but the implementation of concept is horrible.
Not what I expected July 21, 2010

"The sound for the size is good". that what most reviews here are saying, which makes me wonder: what year are they living in. My labtop tiny speakers give me a better experience except for the barely heared small sub woover.
I didn't care much for the product simply because it didn't cost much and that is what most over priced garbage cost.
28 bucks for useless speaker that no body needs not in any situation.
thank you, but I'll deal with the size of an actual speaker that cost the same and delivers ten times the sound.
useless toy, thats how I would describe this product in short.
