      Haven’t had long, but wanted to clear up description. I couldn’t find any differences besides the 2.5 adapter on the Altec Lansing website,and the IM227. In this description, it didn’t say it worked for mp3 also. I hooked it up and it sounds real good. It is pretty loud. It says to turn off extra bass/equalizer. At first I turned it off, but switching back and forth to headphones, I turned the eq back on and turned the volume down a little. I haven’t cranked it past 3/4, but sounds great. Played Aerosmith, Skynyrd, Jackyl, Stones and rock only, they all sound great to me. Stones had some piano that sounded good too.

      It comes with batteries also, I am running rechargeables. Take a marker and draw a line on bottom, before taking it off, so you can line up easier, to put it back on. It comes in IMT227 packaging and instructions, but does say IM227 on bottom.

      I really like this speaker, and will mainly use in garage, patio, bedroom, kitchen,and car trips. For me it is plenty loud for the money, and is a good buy. I like most was surprised by the loudness, but not like your home theater, of course.

      Really like the portability, and being able to listen with mp3. Enjoy your music. Recommend.

      Somehow I expected better. Don’t get me.wrong, it sounds good, it’s compact. But the connection cord is really short and the quality of sound isn’t quite as rich as I had expected. For the price and for my needs it’s fine..but, as I said, I just somehow expected a bit more.

      I’ve been looking for a good (3.5mm headphone jack) compact speaker system for quite a while now. I have a ipod,iphone,and Kindle Fire that I save music on. I’m on the go alot and just wanted something good for my mobile office and my hotel room that I seem to live in most of the time. I was not sure of going with a single speaker or trying a dual system. I did my research on both and after reading many customer reviews on different units I decided to get TWO of these. They sound great on their own, but I made them SOO much better by purchasing a 3.5mm stereo to dual 3.5mm mono splittter and two 1.5 foot 3.5mm extensions. by doing this it solves both my problems… 1: that using only one speaker you dont get true stereo sound. 2: that the chord it comes with is to short for my needs. I used some heatshrink tubing and melted it over the connections on the extensions to the right/left ends of the splitter which holds the connections tight now. any 3.5mm extensions will work, just depends on your needs. The splitter I bought here on amazon, It is a HOSA STEREO 3.5mm PHONE(M)- TWO MONO (1-TIP and 1-RING)3.5mm (F),6 in. sold by Laboratory Music LLC for $3.99. the extensions were also from here and were Cables to go 40405 3.5mm MALE/FEMALE Stereo Audio Extension Cable,Black (1.5 feet/0.45 Meters) and were $2.99 each. All I can say now is WOW!!! I’m glad I did my research and I’m thrilled at how they sound. It fills the room with great sound and in a good compact design. I put velcro on the bottoms of each (to keep them together during travel) and found a small fleece bag to store them and the extensions and splitter in. I hope this helps those of you on the fence looking for a great compact design.
