I think. Does anyone know anything about the AUDIO-TECHNICA AT-SP204 portable speakers? They look really nice, but it seems as if they'er older products that are only offered for sale in Japan.

Do you think sound quality is any good at all? I was thinking of using these while I was working in and around the pool. I don't particularly like the idea of risking dropping my iHP-120 in the water, you see.

I remember hearing one of those. My friend owned them and I didn't think very highly of them. Of course, she was powering them to be too loud. I'm not sure what they sounded like at softer volumes, but I don't recall being impressed.

Portable speakers never seem to be even half-way decent with regards to sound quality. I wouldn't buy one just because it's too expensive, but if you want one, go ahead...lol. Really, I'd just plug in my G73s because they've got a 110dB sensitivity or something and are really loud.
