The negative aspects of these iPod mini speakers are the following: first is the fact that you can change only the volume up and down, but you don’t have the possibility to change the treble, base etc, so don’t expect to have a high quality sound with them because the lack of many features that you can find on other speakers. Also if you listen at top volume, you will see that the speaker fidelity is a bit distorted.
