Enjoy superb sound while listening to your favorite MP3s with the 256 MB Philips ShoqBox sound system. The compact ShoqBox, which measures a mere 7.16 by 2.28 by 2.08 inches (W x H x D), stores up to 60 MP3 or 120 WMA files on its built-in flash memory, then outputs them through the system's pair of tiny yet powerful speakers. The resulting sound combines bright, brisk treble and midrange sound with elastic, room-filling bass--a pairing that's sure to please casual music fans and audiophiles alike.

The speakers owe their elite performance to their high-tech titanium cones and neodymium magnets, which deliver a sound output with nearly twice the power of traditional drivers of the same size. In addition, the drivers, acoustic architecture, and circuitry are precisely tuned, further optimizing the bass performance. Listeners will also dig the six-mode equalizer--which includes classic, hip-hop, jazz, pop, rock, and normal modes--and the dynamic bass boost function. Customizing the ShoqBox's audio output is as easy as pushing a button.

Should you tire of listening to your stored MP3 and WMA files, you can connect the ShoqBox to a personal CD player, PC, or other device via the line-in port. To switch from MP3/WMA to the auxiliary device, simply select the "line-in" function from the main menu. Once you do, you can rock out to your favorite CD, run the audio for your PC games through the speakers, or bring a sophisticated PowerPoint presentation to life.

Additional features include a digital FM tuner with 10 station presets, upgradeable firmware that improves the functionality of the device, a USB 1.1 interface for quick music downloads, a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery that offers up to 10 hours of playback, an integrated alarm, and a convenient travel case that protects the set during transport.

The ShoqBox, which weighs 0.77 pounds, is backed by a one-year warranty on parts (90 days labor).

You'll get big sound in a very small package with the ShoqBox personal sound system. This all-in-one device provides dynamic sound with XSL Acoustics and built-in speakers. It features a 256MB flash drive that can store 60 MP3 songs or up to 120 WMA format songs and an integrated FM tuner with 10 station presets, or you can use the line-in function to connect to any music player or computer. It includes a built-in rechargeable battery that delivers up to 10-hour music playback and a travel case. And at a compact 2.83in.W x 2.08in.D x 7.17in.H, you can take the ShoqBox anywhere.



Great sound and small size2010-06-045 / 5
I had one for many years and I lost, and returned to buy two more. It is excellent, very good sound, and you can connect the Ipod. The best thing is the sound, it sounds really good, and the size is very appropriate to take myself .. Very light and pretty. The battery lasts a long time
No Other Like It2009-08-225 / 5
Wonderful piece of technology. Radio, alarm, MP3 - exceptional sound! Rave reviews from all who have heard it. Can even hear it at 60 MPH on my motorcycle. This is the only MP3 player I've found that offers integrated 'real' speakers vice a docking station of some type. Added storage space would be nice, but the supporting software minimizes the hassle of changing tunes. I wouldn't leave home without it!
A great product, took it on the boat, the beach, the mountains...2009-06-275 / 5
Philips ShoqBox 256 MB Personal MP3 Sound System

I have taken this little sound dock everywhere, for the last 3 years. It has really been a part of every vacation I have had. I love the fact that I can "palm it" and then have chicks dance to your music. The reason I am writing this today though is because I am sad. The rechargeable battery no longer seems to work; I wanted to see if others have encountered the same problem. I don't know what to do now with it. But it IS really good and I would highly recommend it for the price. (I got a good deal at around 20 dollars) It does hold around 80 songs and it does always start at the same one but just use your ipod anyways
fair quality and low price...2009-04-165 / 5
I'm very satisfied with this product. It works smoothly and hasn't had any problems with me so far. But I don't recommend it for inexperienced or fastidious users, because on the "soft" part, it needs to be treated carefully. For example, it malfunctions if you don't "safely remove" from the computer, you will have to reconnect and re-remove. However, other than that, it has no serious issues. It can be said to be one of the best portable speakers.
Noted for potential users: The music managing software attached to the product (Musicmatch) has been out of date. Instead, you should use freeware "Shoqbox Buddy", compatible with Vista.
Does not work with Vista2008-10-163 / 5
Do not buy this if you have Vista unless you only want it for a fm radio and/or a speaker to use with a seperate mp3 player. You will not be able to put music on it with a newer operating system than xp. I found out the hard way. Otherwise it's awesome, the sound is as good as an old fashioned boombox, in a much more compact size. The radio comes in very well. I only give it 3 stars because in my opinion there should be an upgrade or an accessory for the product to make it compatible with newer operating systems.
