Digital camera reviews of Creative Travelsound Zen V
Digital camera Review: Great accessory
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought these from Amazon in the UK and they are great except for one thing. I have to turn the Zen on 'manually' i.e. I can't start it from the speakers or the remote. Is this the same for everyone? The manual doesn't talk about this at all.
Digital camera Review: Great addition
Summary: 5 Stars
The Creative Travelsound Zen V is an awesome addition to the Creative MP-3 player. I use it almost everyday in my office to play music and recharge my player. The sound quality is great for such a small speaker package and it looks good, as well. I am very pleased with my purchase.Digital camera Review: Great small system

I ordered this for my niece and she loves it. For how small it is, it produces great sound and charges her Zen, which is great.Digital camera Review: Great sound from a small system
Summary: 5 Stars
No matter how convenient it is to have a portable music player, there are times when you want to be able to listen to music "normally." The Travelsound Zen V is the way to do so with the Creative Zen V and Zen V Plus players.
It's very small, attractive, easy to hook up, and simple to operate. (You may have to update the firmware on your player, but the download is free on Creative's website, and the process takes just a few minutes.) There are lots of nice features. It runs on either 4 AA batteries or an included AC adapter. There's a USB input, an auxiliary line-in input, and a subwoofer output on the back. The manual is pretty minimal, but it covers the basic operation. The remote control is surprisingly convenient, but it is very small, and there's no on-board storage pocket or clip for it.
Of course, the most important aspect of any speaker system is the sound quality. The Travelsound Sen V is outstanding! It's amazing to hear the crisp sound from such a tiny system fill up a room. Obviously, you don't get booming bass from such small speakers, but the bass is very good nonetheless. The "wide stereo effect" button really works on this system; it creates an amazingly good stereo separation effect even though the speakers are actually less than six inches apart.
The Travelsound Zen V isn't cheap, but I think the convenience and quality are worth the price. I'm happy I bought it, and I'd do so again.
Digital camera Review: Great trip companion
Summary: 5 Stars
My wife and I just took a trip to Costa Rica, and purchased the Creative Docking station at the last minute. The speakers sound great IMO, no sub woofer needed. The unit even served as our alarm clock (hehe, did not bring a watch).
For trips, I don't know how we lived without it!
