 Great for a Dance Studio July 14, 2010
Mark36
I ordered this by mistake, but my wife who is a dance instructor wanted to keep it. I thought this would be comparable in size to the Pyle Pro or the Ion Audio portable PA systems.
It is used daily at her dance studio. I wanted this so we would not be dependent on sound systems at some of the different venues where her dancers perform. Freedom from marginal sound systems and not having to rely on extension cords is a huge benefit.
 Terrible Fidelity June 2, 2010
Willy Wailer (SF East Bay)
Not even close to the quality of the Crate Taxi. Very poor highs and muted fidelity. Not sure why Alesis would make such an inferior product.
The perfect solution April 9, 2010

This has been the best sound system purchase yet for me. I've used this outside in a festival tent (perfect sound), in a school gym (plenty loud), large confeence room with 200+ people (everyone wanted to take this home with them) and in a normal room with 100+ people. I've only had to use the iPod dock with a 2nd gen. Touch, and have had zero problems with this.
Battery life has been more than enough - my shows last up to 1/2 hour and I can perform 4 shows each day easy with music in between.
Perfect size, sound and a bargain at twice the price. I'm looking at getting a second one just to have at home to play music outside during the summer!
Excellent, compact product February 12, 2010

I needed a compact, easily transportable sound and music system for a small dance studio that would work with an iPod and a mic. This very affordable system delivers a clean, crisp sound while charging your iPod for back-to-back classes. If necessary a CD player can be patched into the system and 2 instructors can use their mics at the same time. The system is easy to move/set up and the omni-directional single speaker hits all 4 corners of the room. I use a wireless mic and that needs its own power source, but the Alesis Transactive can run on its own battery.

it showed up right on time, worked perfect right out of the box before i even had to charge it up. took it on a beach trip and it played the entire 2 hour trip with no problem while charging the Ipod. i did call their tech support because it wouldnt charge 2 Ipod classics that my friend had, they said that gen 1 & 2 of the classic ipod wont work with this pa system. i plugged in 2 nano gen 4 ipods, one into the cradle and another using the RCA connections and both worked perfect.
