Creative TravelDock Zen Micro

The Creative TravelDock Zen Micro is a compact listening solution for Creative Zen Micro users on the go.

Good sound quality. Versatile. Compact and sturdy.

Large footprint when cover is folded out. A bit pricey.

Creative TravelDock Zen Micro

The Creative TravelDock Zen Micro is, as its name suggests, a set of travel speakers designed specifically for the Creative Zen Micro.

A convenient foldable design makes the Creative TravelDock Zen Micro easily portable, and an "enhanced stereo" feature makes the stereo field seem wider.

Despite the presence of four drivers, the pricey Creative TravelDock Zen Micro delivers disappointing low-end performance, and it distorts at high volumes.

For Zen Micro owners, the Creative TravelDock Zen is an attractive, compact way to showcase your player, although its performance has some shortcomings.

Hard to find!

Works perfect with Zen.

You must be careful inserting and removing the Zen from the dock, you can bend the connector.

Great sound and compact for travel

I've owned a MicroPhoto for almost a year, and subsequently purchased this item last fall for my bedroom.

Creative TravelDock Zen Micro

"this is awsome"

i love it. the sound is loud and really clear, the bass is also good, but if you are expecting it to be loud enough where you cant hear the actual music, then you would have to buy one to connect it to. but over all its a beautiful piece of hardware,...
