Product Description
SONY SRS-Z1, 6 WATT POWERED PERSONAL SPEAKER SYSTEM WITH AMPLIFI

Amazon.com Product Description
The SRS-Z1 active speaker system comes complete with an amplifier and two satellite speakers. The speakers have die-cast aluminum chassis stands, the color of which match Sony's Discman and MiniDisc portable recorders and players. The color is also a classy, high-tech color and looks appropriate in any room setting. The speakers are powered by an included AC adaptor. Built-in controls for volume and power are front mounted for easy access. Included in the package is a two meter (6.6 feet) connecting cord with a stereo mini-jack, the ideal cord for connecting these speakers to a wide range of components.

With six watts of power, these speakers produce a quality sound. Sony also uses sigma-type magnetic circuitry which aids in producing a deep bass sound. The 1 1/2 inch speakers deliver excellent sound for their size. The 1 1/2 inch bass reflex woofer has a folded sound duct for high acoustic output. Sony has also engineered a "floating" speaker design into the SRS-Z1. This design elevates the speakers slightly and eliminates reflective waves, creating a crisp and accurate sound. Stylish looks, crisp sound, quality bass: the SRS-Z1 creates big sound in a small package.

What's in the Box
Sony SRS-Z1 speaker system, connecting cord, AC adaptor, user's manual and a ninety day warranty.

4 out of 5 stars Sony Speaker System   June 24, 2009
Ward Parker (Brooklyn, NY, USA)
All around good speakers for the price. They don't handle bass real well but for their size they do an okay job with it. Mid range and treble are all real good. Music played over them is clear and distortion free. Overall a good deal.

Lady Gwynn (WI United States)
Needed a good speaker system for my parents LCD TV/Monitor Christmas gift that they use exclusively as a tv. I had bought this exact system for my teenager about 4 years ago and was very impressed with the sound. There was a little wear on the amp, but once I hooked it up to the headphone jack and turned it on, my parents were thrilled. Sound is great and by connecting it the way I did, everything is controlled by one remote. Shipped fast, got exactly what I had hoped for. Purchased from weiwei45, to whom I'd like to say "thank you."


5 out of 5 stars Exceptional Sound Imaging   November 22, 2007

I work in Pro audio and got turned on to these by a friend who already used them and let me borrow his set first. The sound imaging and clarity is exceptional for their size and price, but people who don't specifically listen for detail might want to be able to add more low-end. For me this is the perfect set of lightweight speakers to take on the road with my laptop.

I had been looking for a better quality speaker to replace the high quality (but huge) speakers that were packaged with my new Sony R series computer. I considered the Bose media mates and others recommended on this site but most still took a significant chunk of real estate and did little to free up visual space either. So I noticed the SRS-Z1 on the Sony website and immediately thought, there is no way that those tiny little things with only three watts per channel are going to sound half as good as my current speakers but...

So here they sit on my desk, barely even noticable among the stacks of... never mind. Bottom line, if you want an all in one portable system or a simple two speaker, easy-on-the-eyes replacement for your computer speakers LOOK SOMEWHERE ELSE! If however you are willing to add a subwoofer and create your own mini audiophile system BUY A SET NOW!

Without a good sub these speakers are huantingly transparent and accurate to a fualt but they have no bass what-so-ever. Imagine a set of $1.99 headphones and you'll be in the right frame of mind. Yes, the fidelity is much higher than a transister radio but the frequency loss on the low end is similiar. Once a sub with mini plug output is added however this system just opens up. Freed of the need to produce the low frequencies these speakers make mids and highs seem to hang in the air as smoothly and delicately as anything else on the market. After about ten minutes of E.Q. adjustment on my computer these speakers are comparable in sound to my (Much larger floor speakers) Bose 701s in the living room, with a little help from the sub.

If the price tag scares you, remember that prices vary wildly from shop to shop and todays latest and greatest is tomorrows bargain bin filler.




4 out of 5 stars This speakers are WAY Overpriced   January 14, 2004

If you really want portable speakers that sound great and cost a lot less go for the Bose Mediamates. They have exceptional sound quality for their size and price. Search for them and read my review on the Bose Mediamate! If you just want great speakers that go even louder than the Bose and have room shaking bass and can afford expesnive ones go for the Bose Companion 3! It is an AMAZING speaker system and it is like $20 more dollars than htis Sony speakers... go to www.bose.com and take a look at it under the Game and PC Section!
