Gear4 StreetParty Size 0

Zitat: The good: + Why follow dull, boxy trends in speaker design, when you can build one that´s only 16mm thick? That´s what the clever guys at Gear4 have done here, giving the Size 0 a folding mechanism to leave it thinner than three pound coins placed on top of each other. There´s also an AA battery option so you can share your tunes with lucky unsuspecting passers-by when you´re out and about. The bad: - If Victoria Beckham has taught us anything, it´s that something this thin was never going to be able to throw out a big, powerful sound. It just can´t compare to a decent desktop iPod dock. There´s also very little in the way of bass – leaving some pounding tunes sounding as thumping as a gnat´s fart. Still the mids and highs aren´t too tinny. While the StreetParty Size 0 doesn´t produce the sweetest of sounds, but it does look desirable and is one of the better affordable cum portable docks on the market.

Zitat: + sehr geringe Abmessungen + Batterie- und Netzbetrieb möglich - dünner Klang - im Verhältnis zu teuer

Zitat: Pro: + Stylish slimline looks, excellent sound for the price, handy carry case, good connectivity, charges iPod when plugged into the mains Contra: - Docking station is flimsy and iPod feels a bit unsteady, buttons are tacky, remote control is unresponsive and unintuitive

Zitat: The good: Size, thinness The bad: Sound, build quality We say: While on the surface the StreetParty Size 0 looks impressive once you turn it on it´s clear that beauty really is only skin

Zitat: The StreetParty Size 0 has a mouthful of a name - it implies there´s more than one size, for starters, but I suppose is better than StreetParty Anorexic. It´s an able performer at a reasonable price - albeit the top-end of reasonable; something like this for under £40 would be a smash. That said, it really is lightweight, so is ideal for today´s restricted hold luggage.
