Installation, Testing and Comparison

My oldest son happened to be home from school, spring break from Kindergarten, when my shipment from Brando got here. He was very curious about the Happy Fish Speaker, so I thought that would be the perfect time to test it. He likes to play Glow Worm (review HERE) on my laptop, and I decided to hook the Happy Fish Speaker up while he was playing. He was very impressed with the Happy Fish and actually really excited about it, he couldn’t wait to tell his younger brother about it when he got home from school.

Installation was very easy, no drivers are needed, just plug the USB power cable into a free USB port and then the other end into the Fish, of course you have to connect the audio cable too, but overall it was very easy.

I was very impressed with the sound from the Happy Fish Speaker as I really did not expect it to be very good, honestly it is just a little novelty gadget that one would no expect quality sound from.

The sound from the Happy Fish wasn’t something you’d get from a high end set of speakers, but for what it is it truly astonished me at its sound quality. There isn’t much in the way of bass, but the sound was very clear and crisp with little or no distortion even when I turned up the volume louder.

On thing that I wasn’t very happy about was that the lighting is just random, I thought it would actually blink with the music but it didn’t, it would be very cool if it did though. Yes it doesn’t actually say that it does blink in rhythm to the music but I honestly expected it to.

Here are a few still shots taken in the dark of the Happy Fish Speaker:

And here is a short video of the Happy Fish in action, the music is from the game Glow Worm that my son was playing at the time:

As you can see from the video it is kinda neat and attractive, the audio from the video doesn’t do much justice to the real life experience, so I guess you’ll have to take my word for it.
