Harman Multimedia JBL On Tour

 

Harman Multimedia has done a good job of creating a small, light, and great-looking portable speaker system for portable music players and notebook computers.

Pleasant sound. Great looks. Good ergonomics.

Limited volume levels. Limited bass response.

JBL On Tour Portable Music Box

 

Harman Multimedia has been around the block a few times when it comes to speakers, so it comes as no surprise that the company's On Tour portable speaker set sounds great. But what about style and features? Find out how it all adds up in our review.

JBL On Tour Mobile

 

JBL's On Tour Mobile is a lightweight, portable speaker for those on holiday or down at the beach, but the sound quality isn't great.

2.5mm, 3.5mm and mini-USB connections. Battery-powered option. Compatible with iPods, MP3 players and mobile phones. Can be used as a loudspeaker for calls.

Akward positioning of plugs. Glossy black surface scratches and smudges easily. No remote. Tinny sound and limited bass.

JBL's On Tour Mobile is a lightweight, portable speaker for those on holiday, but the sound quality isn't great.

JBL On Tour Mobile

 

Sleek design, cover doubles as stand, rubber strips on base, auto-off, adequate sound at lower volumes, 2.5mm and 2.5mm cables included

Average sound quality, distortion at higher volume levels

The On Tour Mobile may be worth a look if you are after a portable, lightweight speaker for travelling, but don't expect the world in terms of sound quality.

JBL On Tour Review

 

A roadie's heart in a groupie's body? Strong and sexy all at once? Find out!

Overall, we were quite attracted to JBL's On Tour. The finish is certainly pretty, the form factor is sexy, and the included cloth pouch, mini-jack male-male wire, and AC adapter make the On Tour a real contender among mobile listening stations. Sonic...

Review: JBL On Tour Portable Speaker System

 

Well priced portable music system for iPod

Stylish and runs on batteries or AC power. Easy to transport in supplied cloth bag. Sliding top protects speakers and minimizes storage space

Lacks good bass. Small size places limits on achievable sound quality

iPod and accessories are the gifts of choice this holiday season. While the sound quality of the iPod with headphones is superb, not everyone likes earbuds, and some even want to share their listening experience. Sharing the sound means adding a spea

JBL On Tour Portable Speakers

 

Until late last year, the portable iPod speaker category was all but owned by Altec Lansing's inMotion series, which fold into small flat packages, sound pretty good, and run off of batteries. In recent months, the inMotions have seen challengers such...

Clean, generally accurate sound in an attractive, truly portable package that can be powered by AAA batteries or wall current. Reasonably priced and elegant

No iPod dock, lacks bass thump and warmth of comparable Altec speakers. Cheap cloth bag

Gee, my question is the same as Pete Hawkins. I am also trying to choose between JBL OnTour and the Pacific Rim Cube. The price difference isn't an issue. I want them mainly for light travel and just using in different rooms of the house. Also,...
