I need a small speaker to play music on at work. For comparison, this is what I was using: http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-984-000181-Bluetooth-Wireless-Speaker/dp/B005KQ2O26/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1416617989&sr=8-1&keywords=logitech+speaker+wireless. It sounds great, but is way to large to carry every day. Do you guys have any sugestions for something about a fourth of the size of that? I found this:

Not sure how loud it would be, but looks about the perfect size. Sound needs to be heard in a loud environment at about 10 feet away. Budget is around $30, but no more than $50! Thanks.

I own a DKNIGHT MagicBox personally, and my friend has the real thing Jawbone Jambox and the only real difference IMO, is that the Jawbone has more bass.

If you're willing to spend more:

Also, most of those types of smaller speakers like the ones Walmart has at the checkouts tend to not be very good, for audio it is usually better to spend a little bit more on it, unless it is a reputable company like Skullcandy $30 headphones.

Look at the Logitech UE Boom or whatever the 360deg sound one is.
