@mediocrebot fine you broke me. In for 1. My dad got this last time it was up. Has a really awesome sound. My brother got the smaller one and even that sounded really loud and clear.
@JazzyJosh Easy there, the scapegoat is a lovable and blamable position. However there is no need for directed profanity. I for one, blame @cengland0 for having to come in here and teach you a lesson!
@studerc Thanks for saying that. I see a lot of profanity on this site and I wish people could figure out a way to use different words. I have gone my entire life without ever saying that "F" word (yes it's true) so I know it's possible. I believe it is a lack of good verbal education when people use it.
@JazzyJosh So now, when you grow up and apply for a job, like maybe at the Lutheran Church, the search committee is going to see this meh post and say, "Fuck you, Josh," and you'll stay poor and unemployed.
@cengland0 couldn't disagree more goat, but I don't want to drag us into another conversation about language here. @YoDad If employers care about the language I use on the internet I guess it's good I found this job because otherwise I would never work again.
@cengland0@cengland0 Yes, also disagree. Saying that swearing shows a lack of verbal education is always one that gets under my skin. Especially the insinuation that because someone doesn't swear they are inherently better than someone else. Seems disrespectful to the same degree of offense of the original profanity.
@ChadP I'm old and I've seen words come and go in the English language and I see the "F" word being used more and more as time goes on. People a long time ago were able to have wonderful conversations without ever using it. I have never heard major figure heads like the President use it in any of his speeches. I do, however, hear uneducated people use it all the time. It's commonly used by comedians to add shock value. You hear people with very little class use it. Think the Queen of England frequently uses that word? I think not. And why not? Because she has class.
@cengland0 - It seems that is the attitude that gives the word its power. In no one were offended by it, then why would anyone say it? Profanity is only what we make it. Why isn't the word "killing" considered profane?
@cengland0 Your argument managed to strongly insinuate that anyone using the word fuck, in any form, is classless and uneducated. Do you find it difficult to keep the moral high ground when you have to insult the people who disagree with you?
@Thumperchick It was meant as a light insult as a friend but seeing how me and @cengland0 aren't friends and are barely acquaintances, it was way too harsh.
@JonT@JonT Your overpriced crappy speaker dock offering has angered the Noodily One. To atone, you should eat 3 meatballs with a cup of linguini and offer a sweet basil offering so you may be once again Touched by His Noodily Appendage. I'll sauté for you...
@Dash Damn right! I like my speaker docks red and resembling sex toys. A pox on Speaker Dock Fridays! May that dastardly signing cowboy's pasta be forever sticky and cold!!!
@hijihoon Cynical, because these have been offered again and again and again and again and again and again and ... well, you get the point. And yeah, they're selling a lot of them alright. Alas, they have more than just a lot ...
@DoorMatt This reminds me of the classic "Taxi" moment where Reverend Jim is watching a debate as to whether people living in Delaware will be called "Delawareans" or "Delawarites". (It was much funnier before I ended up as the U of Delaware and realized those debates ACTUALLY HAPPEN.)
Bought one of these for my work iPhone and it actually sounds pretty damn good... But pitchforks and torches are way more fun so meh... EFF YOU SPEAKER DOCK FRIDAY!!!
@Bearxor most of my cases don't work with it. If it's just a shell case that doesn't wrap around the bottom you'll be fine. Otherwise you can buy a lightning extender from Apple for like 19 bucks or something.
@geniemaine We only ship to the US currently (and for the foreseeable future), people from outside of the country either have a friend/relative send it to them or use a freight forwarding service.
@DoorMatt the arrows point to the protruding elements of the Kavaj case, forcing me to "edit" out of the plastic on the dock (previous pic). The plastic is soft, easily cut.
Meh, how do you keep having Speaker Dock Fridays!?
I can only imagine what the buyoff for your old site was like...
Amazon: "We'll give you a 2002 Chevy Cavalier full of money." (Soon to be) Meh: "We want a warehouse full of money for this site, look at all of our unique visits and sell-outs!" Amazon: "Fine, we'll give you a 1988 Volkswagen Vanagon full of money." Meh: "Fine, but we also want you to transfer your whole inventory of JBL speaker docks to our warehouse in a secret location (Carrollton, TX)."
And that is how I envision Meh is able to have unlimited SDFs.
@Advait Haha, that price was through the 3rd party options this morning- now it`s the main listing or whatever. Quite a coincidence, after CNET mehntioned, too?.
@mehjohnson I`m having my own problems trying to link above, so just trust me, he mehntioned the deal here. Even sounded serious about liking spkr docks.
I nearly bought one of those tablets yesterday out of pity due to the miniscule sales. Cause I felt sorry for you guys, and I want you to succeed. Then I saw this dock and that feeling went away. Thanks for taking care of that for me.
It sounds great, but my iPhone 6 won't fit on the adapter with the case on my phone. It's a small slim case but there's just enough of a lip that raps around the bottom of the phone to prevent it the connector from engaging all the way in the bottom of the phone. I will be searching for an adapter, but if I don't find one, this may be a return.
@ctrapino Ok, I just read the hack to cut the back of the dock area and also looked up adapters for it. I may go that route, just disappointed that the adapter cost almost as much as the product.
So this is a photo of the JBL onbeat Mini Ipad dock. The one thats about 12inches by 6 inches by 4inches tall... The dock does not allow my ipad air to have a case on it. Like Any case on it. So- there is an easy fix. There is that silly piece of rubber that sits on the side of the lightning connector. Use a pencil or screw driver and lift up that glued rubber that is six inches long that goes around it. IN the photo above I have removed the rubber and placed it for safe keeping 1 inch away in front of it. Now it allows my ipad air to be used in the dock within the case.

First meh! I'd like to thank the mehcademy...
Hey look another sansa....errr speakerdock...

Just please sell out of these already. Or there's always Goodwill... donation credit??
oh god, another speaker dock. I know I will be blamed for this one. Another miserable Friday.
@cengland0 Why must you torment is like this? SDF.
@heartny Bwahahahaha. What else did you expect on a Friday from a mediocre company?
SDF. Damn you, @cengland0!!
@narfcake All I can do is say I'm sorry. I wish I could say it would never happen again but we all know the truth.
@cengland0 You mean ... TWO docks on Tuesday?! Arrrrgh!
Make it stop make it stop MAKE IT STOP!!!!
TGI-SDF
Meh..... Wait no... Wait a sec... Yeah, no. Meh.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to Speaker Dock Friday!
Speaker docs, solo bags, Speakers, keyboards
I will guess what comes next.
..

A bluetooth keyboard
@dintury777 nope. vacuum.
@snapster I actually hope so. I'm in the market for one of those Dysons.
@jsh139 You shouldn't! Check out the vacuum expert dude.
@flynnski Very informative. Thanks!
@dintury777 ROOMBA

@somf69 my cat says 'meh'
Throw in a 5th gen iPod touch & I'll consider it...
(Better yet, just sell the touch! ;-)
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST, SERIOUSLY?

Fuck you @cengland0
@JazzyJosh Easy there, the scapegoat is a lovable and blamable position. However there is no need for directed profanity. I for one, blame @cengland0 for having to come in here and teach you a lesson!

Especially the insinuation that because someone doesn't swear they are inherently better than someone else. Seems disrespectful to the same degree of offense of the original profanity.
@cengland0 You should try it at least once. It's very therapeutic. After stubbing a toe, I find it works as a natural pain reliever.
@cengland0 also, to clarify one point - straight up using the word directly at a person seems out of place, even in our goat-filled society.
@ChadP I'm old and I've seen words come and go in the English language and I see the "F" word being used more and more as time goes on. People a long time ago were able to have wonderful conversations without ever using it. I have never heard major figure heads like the President use it in any of his speeches.

Think the Queen of England frequently uses that word? I think not. And why not? Because she has class.
@JonT @cengland0 I blame not using profanity until i was at least 17 to my rampant user of profanity now.
@cengland0 - It seems that is the attitude that gives the word its power. In no one were offended by it, then why would anyone say it? Profanity is only what we make it. Why isn't the word "killing" considered profane?
@cengland0 Your argument managed to strongly insinuate that anyone using the word fuck, in any form, is classless and uneducated. Do you find it difficult to keep the moral high ground when you have to insult the people who disagree with you?
@JazzyJosh Telling someone "fuck you," is over the top for goat-blaming. Though we would all see "Curse you!" as perfectly acceptable. (odd, right?)
@cengland0 I agree with you.
@JazzyJosh The correct response was "why don't you go outside and play hide and go f**k yourself?"
@Thumperchick It was meant as a light insult as a friend but seeing how me and @cengland0 aren't friends and are barely acquaintances, it was way too harsh.
Better think that this as a recharger for iPhone and iPad.
Wow I just bought recharger but it functions playing music as well.
Damn.
Cool. A speaker dock. On a Friday. Who would have guessed?
Yikes. It sounds like the community is ready to grab torches and storm the castle.

No boat anchor? Pass.
@Kyser_Soze different dock
It's a normal, mediocre Friday. I'm just fine with the fact alone, so... meh.
@cainegoon so... alone... always alone.
Change your site name.

I'd buy that for a dollar.. C'mon, charge meh a dollar.. No? Guess I'll pass then.
Speakuh dohk?.. really? This is Mehder!
If this was a cable channel, it would be CNN...Lamestream Media, Hey Oh!
It's only SDF
@JonT @JonT Your overpriced crappy speaker dock offering has angered the Noodily One. To atone, you should eat 3 meatballs with a cup of linguini and offer a sweet basil offering so you may be once again Touched by His Noodily Appendage. I'll sauté for you...
@Guy767 Ramen!
This does not look like a spaceship with motion controls. Meh!
@Dash Damn right! I like my speaker docks red and resembling sex toys. A pox on Speaker Dock Fridays! May that dastardly signing cowboy's pasta be forever sticky and cold!!!
despite all cynical comments here, I am sure meh is selling a lot of these...until now, I've got 4 micro and 3 mini...and ordering 2 mini again!
@hijihoon 3 micro 2mini and i am still purchasing this fucking shit SD..
@hijihoon Cynical, because these have been offered again and again and again and again and again and again and ... well, you get the point. And yeah, they're selling a lot of them alright. Alas, they have more than just a lot ...
Meh's got Daring Fireball eyes.
I hate this
@unixrab Yesssss
@Moose
Too much speaker, not enough dock. I'm contacting my lawyer...
TGISDF
Where's the option for a beard on this damn relic?
With this, my iphone6+, and a bluetooth keyboard, I almost have a laptop
@commodog The worst type of laptop the over priced and under powerd ones. can i say Kappa here like i do on twitch?
Well, I guess it's better than the boombox I was going to look for at Goodwill for the garage. But that would require more effort.
So how do mehers think this sounds?
@wishlish I think as a whole we prefer to be referred to as Mehicans.
@DoorMatt This reminds me of the classic "Taxi" moment where Reverend Jim is watching a debate as to whether people living in Delaware will be called "Delawareans" or "Delawarites". (It was much funnier before I ended up as the U of Delaware and realized those debates ACTUALLY HAPPEN.)
@wishlish DoorMatt Not all of us are Mehicans. Some of us are Mehniacs.
@barnabee Oh, I do like that better!
Eh, screw it. I'm in. murderous-experienced-woodchuck. Somehow seems appropriate for SDF, doesn't it?
How do I stop buying these speaker docs from Meh? I've emailed support, but they just replied "lulz!"
Only $43.00 on Amazon!
http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00CO07FIO/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new
Bought one of these for my work iPhone and it actually sounds pretty damn good... But pitchforks and torches are way more fun so meh... EFF YOU SPEAKER DOCK FRIDAY!!!
You have to admire a company that calls their customers 'rabble.'
where can i have white onbeat mini
I like purple.
Does anyone know if this works with a device in a case or is it completely flush with the bottom of the phone/pad.
@Bearxor most of my cases don't work with it. If it's just a shell case that doesn't wrap around the bottom you'll be fine. Otherwise you can buy a lightning extender from Apple for like 19 bucks or something.
North Dakota has seen the light.
this is only available in the US?
@geniemaine We only ship to the US currently (and for the foreseeable future), people from outside of the country either have a friend/relative send it to them or use a freight forwarding service.
@JonT 구차한 변명이십니다
this is actually a good product, but it requires an x-acto knife to bevel the back of the power adapter rocker plastic so that a cased phone fits in.
@internaut Curious what you mean by that. Can you post a picture of what you did? I find it annoying I always have to take my case off to use it.
@internaut I am also intrigued. Please enlighten us on your speaker dock hack. I have the micro, but I'd assume the hack works all the same.
@hartmm90 the arrows point to the back of the tilting dock element that I beveled off to fit the case (below).
@DoorMatt the arrows point to the protruding elements of the Kavaj case, forcing me to "edit" out of the plastic on the dock (previous pic). The plastic is soft, easily cut.
I'm hoping that the style case that my wife has doesn't mean I have to bevel this one.
Meh, how do you keep having Speaker Dock Fridays!?
I can only imagine what the buyoff for your old site was like...

Real price on Amazon.com
@Advait Haha, that price was through the 3rd party options this morning- now it`s the main listing or whatever. Quite a coincidence, after CNET mehntioned, too?.
How do we still have these?
CNET Cheapskate listed this on his bonus deals for today:
@mehjohnson I`m having my own problems trying to link above, so just trust me, he mehntioned the deal here. Even sounded serious about liking spkr docks.
@mehjohnson http://www.cnet.com/news/get-a-nikon-coolpix-p530-camera-for-269/ There's the link :)
@JonT Thanks! I was using Silk on the toilet for the first time. (I'll stick to single-ply from now on.)
I nearly bought one of those tablets yesterday out of pity due to the miniscule sales. Cause I felt sorry for you guys, and I want you to succeed. Then I saw this dock and that feeling went away. Thanks for taking care of that for me.
Ok, bought it - but really, does it work with a thin case?
죽여줍니다잉
이건 내장배터리 방식이라 건전지 필요없고

소리 제법 크게 납니다.
저번에 3개 들여와서 지인들하고 잘 쓰고있습니다 ㅎㅎ
@sherryblue2 지인들 차별 마시고 더 사시죠 ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ 저는 미니 샀는데 이걸로 살껄 그랫어요 ㅋㅋㅋ
@sherryblue2 배터리 내장도 배송에 별 문제는 없는건가요?
@Yeahooo @sherryblue2 님도 한국으로 배송 받으셨어요.
No Georgia Red. . . for that alone, meh.
@jrwofuga But it's almost $30k. So that should even it out.
I love purple.
It sounds great, but my iPhone 6 won't fit on the adapter with the case on my phone. It's a small slim case but there's just enough of a lip that raps around the bottom of the phone to prevent it the connector from engaging all the way in the bottom of the phone. I will be searching for an adapter, but if I don't find one, this may be a return.
@ctrapino Ok, I just read the hack to cut the back of the dock area and also looked up adapters for it. I may go that route, just disappointed that the adapter cost almost as much as the product.
So this is a photo of the JBL onbeat Mini Ipad dock. The one thats about 12inches by 6 inches by 4inches tall... The dock does not allow my ipad air to have a case on it. Like Any case on it.

Here is a photo of the JBL OnBeat Mini with my ipad two in a case being used. All I had to do was move that rubber on the sides- out of the way.
