This system has seen a lot of hard knocks, but keeps playing great. We are not allowed to wear headphones on the 3 day, since they decrease our responsiveness to traffic. Portable speakers (on low) are one way to enjoy a great beat, or share a sing along while walking. Unlike most portable speakers, which are lighter because they syphon power off your MP3, this set uses batteries which can be changed out as needed. Distortion only occurs when batteries are going bad, so bring a spare set of rechargeables for those all day training walks. See you in DC ladies!!!

I had a pair, and it was a waste of $40.00. They have really bad sound. I'm talking about sound distortion at a volume of 5 out of a scale of 10. They look really pretty in person though! Sadly, their good looks do nothing to make up for the fact that after the first or second usage, you won't use them again because it's just too painful. Perhaps, someday, they'll present items with a slightly more feminine bent that AREN'T cheap gimicks. Actually, they’re not worth a try. I had a pair, and it was a waste of $40.00.
