A Double Docking Device : Samsung DA-E550

Imagine, if you will, a section of interior tubing that has been designed to bend (I was tempted to say “it like Beckham” but resisted) around an obstruction and you will have some idea as to the general shape of the Samsung DA-E550 product. This piece...

Decked out in a high-gloss white coating, the DA-E550 unit has dimensions of 462.7 x 122.3 x 151.8mm (W x H x D) and weighs 1.6kg which does take it out of the range of a portable device. Situated at each end of this curved cylindrical tube are the...

Samsung Dual Docking Speaker with Wireless Audio Review

The Samsung DA-E550 is certainly an attractive audio dock and its unique horn shape serves the dual purpose of looking both cool and delivering a wider stereo soundstage. The gloss white finish gives the E550 a contemporary appearance and the build...

Good audio performance Dual dock Bluetooth built-in Easy to setup and use Remote control Well built

Lacking in power No battery option No USB port

As mentioned previously, the E550\'s unusual design does allow for a more expansive sound stage but it is rather lacking in the power department. Since each speaker is only rated at five watts, the E550 is not suited for particularly large rooms or...

Lacks any battery option

While I could have lived with such limitations as the lack of LED indicators and even the relatively feeble volume, the lack of a battery option really is a disappointment in this speaker, which could have been so much more with such a minor...

Strengths are the dual dock capabilities, the Bluetooth wireless connectivity and the unique design which helps maximize stereo separation for its size. Sound is pleasant enough, even if not loud.

This speaker loses at least a full egg for the utter lack of any battery or battery option. I never fathomed, when ordering, it wouldn't have a battery option! I guess the designers never anticipated anyone actually taking this speaker anywhere, but,...

Form over function

It looks nice and once it does sync it operates well, but the sound isn't the greatest, with loose, bloated bass and virtually no audio at all over 7kHz. Also, sometimes it'll reconnect with your device when you turn it on, and sometimes it won't. So...

It looks nice and operates well, has a remote

bass is bloated, no treble to speak of, and has some syncing issues
