It’s good that you have all these photographs as it gives us a good idea of it’s size. Coolio July 29, 2009 at 7:17 pm @chris the gel won’t lose it’s tackiness. If it gets dusty, you just wipe it off with a damp cloth. You need to remove the protective seals from the top and the bottom though because if you leave the sticker on the bottom, you don’t get the same sound result. WOW, so you bought one in less than two hours? Not obvious astro-turf then... Coolio June 29, 2009 at 5:30 pm

I placed it on a huge box like wooden table I have that is opened at one end and it was very impressive. When my guests realised the source of the sound they where blown away. I'm going to get another two. It fits nicely in my Bass Guitar case and couples with my TASCAM Bass Trainer. Definately a must have. (Phone conference tool/Laptop Presentation Speaker/iPod Speaker/Portable Bass Guitar amp) - Luv it! I bought one for a friend – Fantastic.

It was clear and informative. I wish there was some way to hear for myself, a youtube video won't do it justice. Do you think it's worth the money or do u think a set of portable speakers for the same price would give better sound results? Thanks for the review! It was clear and informative.
