 Good for the office, Bad for those of us who like it loud July 12, 2008
I purchased this on sale directly from creative's online store for 11.99 plus shipping 6.99. It arrived quickly and I was excited to use it, especially since I've really enjoyed my Creative TravelDock 900 speaker.
Pro's include, that it fits the zen stone plus player perfectly, that it only requires two AAA batteries (the TravelDock 900 uses four), it's small, and it looks good/pretty.
Con's include, it's not very loud (which is only good if you plan to use this for work, while sitting in a cube/office and don't want to disturb others). My TravelDock 900 is much louder and can be used outdoors or indoors. Also, there's no volume control on the speaker dock, you can only control the volume with your zen stone plus. The TravelDock 900 has volume controls in addition to volume control access you have to your player. Keep in mind, these are travel speakers, the TravelDock 900 is by no means a replacement for a stereo system, but it comes close for those of us who need something small for our computers or mp3 players. Also, while you have access to the front controls, you cannot turn the player off without pulling it out of the dock. You also need to remove the silicone skin (if you use one) to get it to fit/work properly (with the TravelDock 900, you don't need to remove the skin). Also, it does not get FM reception (so the zen stone plus' radio feature will not work with travel speakers). Lastly, unlike the TravelDock 900, it does not have the capability to charge your player. The TravelDock 900 has a USB connection in the back which does.
In sum, this speaker system is about half the size of the TravelDock 900 so if you need something smaller than the TravelDock and you plan on using it for your office then this is the speaker dock for you.
All others, buy a TravelDock 900 instead while you still can.
creative travel sound zen stone black April 21, 2008
Small simple to use.....
the worst things are:
2 AAA battery to use, low sound, without control of volume, fit only for zen stone plus and not for zen stone plus with soundspeaker....
if you want plug the last item you need just a cable!!!

This works for the zen MP3. It's a little more flimsy than I'd hoped. I'm hearing a small vibration from one speaker after only a few uses.
not loud enough! February 24, 2008

Nice little product, stone plus fits perfectly inside. Craftsmanship of speaker is sturdy & attractive. However the largest downside to this speaker is poor volume level. If you have ambient noise outside, the volume will be lost. somewhat disappointed. I bought this so I wouldn't have to take my creative computer speakers outside with the AC plug when I BBQ but the travelsound can't compare with volume of the computer speakers :(. this speaker should be sold for no more than $15. $30 or more is a thievery. enjoy.

Absolutely as promised: affordable, good fidelity, long lasting, sleek. A perfect companion to the Zen Stone or Zen Stone Plus. I was especially pleased at it's 'no battery' feature that allows you to play your tunes without using any battery power (utilized stored energy from the Zen Stone itself)at a lower volume. Great for your cubicle at work! Sound quality is good. Volume is sufficient and the price is just right.
