Recommend?: Compact, Rechargeable speakers for holiday

Hi there,

I was hoping someone could recommend a set of speakers suitable for taking on holiday.

Ideally, they would be;
  • Sound good while filling a decent sized hotel suite or beach with music
  • Compact and light while able to survive the delicate manual handling of cargo loaders
  • Rechargeable via a USB socket
  • Give around 6 hours of play away from the mains
  • Use a 3.5mm jack

Budget is around £50.

Kind regards,

G

Many thanks for the reply.

No, I hadn't come across those before.

I will try and hunt down a pair to demo.

Kind regards,

Well I went for the ones as suggested above and they work a treat.

Adding a Fii0 E1 amp to the ipod really gives the sound a boast too.

Many thanks,
