The inMotion's speakers (60Hz to 20kHz, 75dB signal-to-noise ratio) sound about as good as a solid clock radio: that is, not bad but lacking in earth-shaking bass and the high-end sound that makes dogs howl. We managed to crank up the volume fairly high, considering the iM3's paltry 2W-per-channel output, although the sound began to distort at earsplitting levels. Four AA batteries will power the speakers for about 24 hours, or you can use the AC adapter for marathon music sessions.
