Companies are more often making it easier now to share you music from personal media players with speaker accessories, which I have to say works much better than having to put your heads together and each take an earbud.

This desire to share the sound grows along with more media players that show video since multiple people can watch and naturally would like to hear what’s going on, too. iRiver has a new accessory for the Clix 2 called the iRiver Clix Cradle, and consists of basically little more than an attachable speaker. The Clix Cradle connects directly to the player through a headphone jack and puts out the sound with a 1 watt speaker.

The speaker accessory draws it’s power for an internal, rechargeable battery that can be powered up through a USB connection or from the player itself to deliver around 7 hours of playback. When connected, one side of the almost-round speaker frame is flat, creating an angled stand for the Clix 2 to sit upright for watching videos while connected. iRiver has the Clix Cradle selling for 29 800 won, or about $32.
