    Looks like a great buy, £99 in UK, €119 appears correct, great saving, ordered one Friday, won't be in store until end of next week, bought it as a pressie for a nephew :)

    Got a speaker that looks identical in Aldi a couple of years back, no bluetooth but had SD card reader and line in. €30 I think. Decent sound for a small speaker, but don't expect miracles from a device that size.

    Takes the Nokia battery alright, had some spares from an NGage (remember them).

    I honestly dont get why people are looking to connect speakers this tiny to a tv!

    I doubt this speaker will be able to provide much of a better sound than internal tv speakers, its probably only 6 watts max!

    You'd be much better off investing in a soundbar which is much more powerful, like the one for €50 coming up in Aldi.

    I had a similar, much cheaper Tesco one around the same size as that a few years ago. It had much better bass and could go to a much higher volume than my flat screen without distorting.
    It's not the right tool for the job though. A sound bar as you suggested, or even an old hifi with an audio-in would be much better. Not sure how great a €50 sound bar would be tbh.

    AUX cable to a hi-fi is the only way to go alright, plenty on Adverts, best sound you can get imo and you'll have a radio and CD player there aswell for the odd times you might need them.

    Noticed this myself and was about to post.

    Reserved online for Liffey Valley store and when I went in to the store it was marked as €40 on the shelf but got it for this price.

    What's with Halfords UK selling an even better Autoglym bodywork and wheels kit for 20 pounds and selling the same one here for 60 euro, would've picked it up and all.

    I never got a text from them. Checked email though and received one with a code and few days to collect item.

    I got one as a Xmas present for my son. Is it any good?? I obviously can't open til the 25th.. But at moment it looks 'small'


  • Registered Users Posts: 108 ✭✭decskelligs


    I got a phone call from Halfords Limerick to confirm my speaker order was in stock. They told me that it had to come in from England and sorry for the delay. Ordered it Black Friday and had it in hand on Wednesday.

    Got an email saying extra 10% off today between 12 - 2pm.

    Edit: Seems I'm on a UK mailing list. Not too sure if this applies to Irish site as well.

    when you add to the checkout basket, it does not say anything about 25% or is the 25% already off the price?
