• iPod Touch 4G: Speaker Volume?
    27 replies, posted
So I'm thinking of buying an iPod Touch 4G. I was wondering if the built-in speakers were any good though, because my android's speakers are just too quiet when I'm on my bike. I'm talking music I want to be able to hear if a huge-ass bus drives past me. I want it without headphones as well, because when I have them on I lose most awareness of everything.
It's not too hard to go to a best buy or something instead of wasting our time.

These sons of bitches can go loud.

[QUOTE=geogzm;25587267]Loud enough to hear on a bike?[/QUOTE] I bet, unless they use better speakers on the iTouch 3G, which I doubt.
I got ipod touch 4g, with speakers, you hear it loudly when you are alone in your room, but when I'm in school bus, I barely can hear it. While riding on a bike, i didn't try, but you shouldn't hear it loudly, it's better with earplugs.
Just buy some el-cheap-o battery powered speakers from some electronics store for like dollars 10. I use Bluetooth headphones while working, or on my bike, because I hate wires. I'm the only person at work able to listen to music in my department because it's wireless. :D
I don't understand why you would rather use the speaker instead of earphones. People who sit on the bus with their music on like that piss me off.
Don't be a dick and blast everyone on the sidewalk. Just use earbuds.
the speaker sucks dick - it's not really THAT loud, and it sounds like dick. you should be wearing headphones anyway, not everyone wants to hear whatever the fuck you're listening to, in fact usually nobody ever wants to hear what someone else is listening to. don't be a douche bag, wear headphones, it even comes with them.

Tell us a reason not to use earbuds?
[QUOTE=Freestyle;25615473]Tell us a reason not to use earbuds?[/QUOTE] because I often fall in to selective hearing and can't hear oncoming cars when I've got earbuds on

i'm not exactly sure what that's supposed to mean or how it's even relevant to this discussion
How about plugging in only one earphone? Also, damn it MB, you're pissing them off. :v:
