Hello Wendy, Several people who own Victor Reader Streams as well as BookCouriers are recommending the JBL OnTour speakers which can be either battery- or mains-operated, I believe. They cost around £35 from Amazon. I haven't tried them myself, having a small pair of Sony speakers, but there seem to be plenty of happy JBL OnTour owners, so I will seriously consider them when mine need replacing. HTH, Caroline. -----Original Message----- From: bookcourier-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bookcourier-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Ibrahim Gucukoglu Sent: 20 November 2007 18:05 To: bookcourier@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bookcourier] Re: USING SPEAKERS Hi Wendy. The Book courier will work with any speakers that have a 3.5 MM connection jack similar to the headphones supplied with the unit. However, you will need a pair of amplified speakers as the book courier does not provide an output of sufficient impedance to produce a loud volume on a pair of unamplified speakers. If your going to use the BC for a stretch on a pair of speakers, I suggest you get the sort that can be mains as well as battery operated. Hope this helps and if you've any more questions, please get back to me. All the best, Ibrahim Gucukoglu ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wendy Sharpe" <w.sharpe@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <bookcourier@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, November 20, 2007 5:41 PM Subject: [bookcourier] USING SPEAKERS > As I don't like wearing headphones for two many hours at a stretch, I was > wondering what type of speakers are ok to use with Book Courier.
