Best Car speaker I have tested			Time Owned: 6 to 12 months.
Last 30years I have tested all kind of Car speakers for my ham radio and always when seating on Police patrol car's back seat (getting speed ticket) wondering how their radios have so good speakers. Once I found this MLS-200 I felt, I have coming home.. No more needed to search sound quality from Police cars. Powerfull clear and good quality sound together with my Kenwood TM-D710 radios.

Outstanding sound, exceeding my expectations			Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I received the speaker yesterday which doesnot mean that much experience but... I have several decades experience in building audiophile equipment and built in plenty of listener's experience so I can clearly vote after just few minutes of listening of a new sound gear. I use the MLS 200 with my FT-991A. What all the previous reviewers have written is absolutely true and I'm very glad that I followed their way by buying this inexpensieve but great performing speaker. What I want to add on all the previeus reviews is - the nicely colored and deep sound of MLS-200 makes the SSB signals on HF much more readable. It cuts the noise in it's own charming way leaving only the voice signal to your ears. There is certainly a kind of Japanesse magic that has been impleneted in this little but big performing speaker. Thank you Yaesu!

Built like a tank. Going to get another just because- GREAT !			Time Owned: 3 to 6 months.
Really nice speaker for the FTM400xdr. Has a stereo plug which the FTM seems to like. This is really well build. The $40 price is more than fair for this level quality. Going to get another or two, just because. Sounds GREAT in the car, sounds GREAT in the shack. 73

Works Wonderful			Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Was using a MLS-100 on my Yaesu FT991A, picked up another FT950 with a DMU tried the FT950 with the MLS-100 I was using on the FT991A. The MLS-100 works wonderful on the FT950 a very good match for sure. Was going to get another MLS-100 for the FT991A but did not have the room after I moved the FT991A an adding the FT950 in my small shack. The MLS-200 is smaller an fits right next to the FT991A, when I tried to hookup the MLS-200 it would not work with the connector that came on the MLS-200 added an adapter to hear how it sounded, sounds even better on the FT991A to my ear, added a new cable with the correct plug, it sound excelent better than the the MLS-100 did on the FT991A, seems like Yaesu has upgraded its extension speaker line matching there radios better to my ears. The MLS-200 is a nice extension speaker for the FT991A using it as base radio with neat results. Thanks Yaesu ...............kb6hrt

For small shack its like a big speaker			Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I have used this on a FT-7900 and on various HF sets. The speaker they use and the really thick, heavy plastic enclosure makes for a big sound. You think you need a huge external speaker full of air? Not so, this is a wonder speaker as far as I am concerned. Yaesu's little secret. Try one, it will enhance any internal speaker on any modern rig I am sure of it.

Fantastic Speaker			Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I was looking for a speaker to compliment my FTM400 XDE, I did look at others and went with the intentions of getting the MLS100 as the availability of the 200 was a little difficult to get hold of, however when I arrived at my local radio shop they had just took delivery of the MLS200 speakers and I was advised to go with the 200 instead of the 100, I am so glad I made this choice it's a nice compact speaker but don't be put off by the size of this baby, the sound quality is second to none it's clear and adds just the right amount of tone so it's very pleasing on the ear, weather it's for mobile use or like me in the shack this thing delivers, so if you are looking to get a compact speaker with big speaker performance I would definitely recommend the Yaesu MLS200

small extension speaker			Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I was looking for a good speaker to couple to my FT857 for the car. I have tried many of the small £10-£15 speakers and some famous (3 letter) noise cancelling types. I was very pleased with how well this small speaker performs. It also has an excellent and strong mounting braket arrangement. I positioned it on the transmission tunnel between the two seats at the back of the centre consol.

Small Package - Big Surprise!			Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Traded my coveted but getting long in the tooth 07 Ford Sport Trac for a loaded 2011 Nissan Frontier. Had to of course completely re-think install of FT-7900. I'm pretty picky about install neatness and everything being mounted properly and all wires being run neatly. Also thought this a good opportunity to replace my weathered antenna mag-mount, and upgrade my old and awkward GE mobile speaker to a smaller and more modern variety. Besides, the old GE brick was simply not going to fit in my preferred location in the new Frontier - that being on the riser between the front and rear doors just behind my left ear. (This Frontier, like my Sport Trac - is a crew cab with 4 doors and a "real" back seat). I ordered the MLS-200 from my local HRO hoping it would be just the ticket. By jeeze - it is! Fits very nicely in "that" spot and more importantly, it sounds absolutely terrific. This little fella has a very solid feel in your hand as well as audio quality that defies it's smaller size. I may order another for shack duty! In any case, a definite upgrade to the 'ol GE brick speaker that until now - I "thought" sounded good enough for the truck. It seems that I didn't know what I was missing all these years. This is no "typical" small speaker. Do not hesitate to purchase should it be on your list of things to get "someday". Get it now, and see what your missing! Ren (W1REN)
