Kindle Fire speakers ?

Unread post by qbman1 »

A question for any of you informed technical types please.

Can anyone recommend a set of small portable stand-alone speakers for a Kindle Fire.

I have a USB Bus powered set but that is not much good at sea when I don't have a pc with me! I am not too bothered about sound quality.

Any ideas grataefully received.

Thanks.

Sorry, I should have added I don't have an ipod and don't want to lug a laptop on holiday. The Fire will do all I need it to but it would be quite nice to be able to play a little music as required and the built-in speakers are barely adequate at best

Just done a Google search on "speakers for kindle fire" and there are loads available at all sorts of prices (majority seem to be around the £20/£25 mark)

Thank you Smurf of Bergen. I think most of those are bus powered so I just wondered whether enyone had any experience of ones I could tap into Arcadia's power supply. I'll have another trawl through Google anyway

The ones I glanced at were battery powered and used the v3mm audio jack. There are some Bluetooth ones as well.

I don't have blue teeth - mine are mostly yellow !

I'll check out the battery ones, thanks

How is Bergen by the way ? Try to stay out of the Christmas shop !
