Excellent but WAAAAAY overpriced
Celestron simply adapted another product, put some black plastic around it, and tacked their name to it, while charging a 400 percent mark up. Do a search for "Super Mini Sound Box Speaker" and see that you can buy this for a little as 7 bucks elsewhere. Otherwise, it does help a LOT to share the audio tracks with others, and its size cannot be beat. Highly recommended.

Great For Family or Group Stargazing - Recommended
While I really enjoy using the SkyScout, the audio guides were somewhat hard enjoy when only one person could listen at a time using headphones (we had bought headphones because no one likes to share the earpbuds that came with the SkyScout).

Works pretty well, good value, not quite a perfect fit

By twisting the silver front end it expands like an accordion to noticeably improve bass response, but that's not really necessary for audio spoken word.
My only gripe is that it's a very tight fit if you choose to plug it directly into the SkyScout (which I do, because it's compact... more info

Perfect way to share Skyscout with others 
This product is great. One of my early frustrations with the Celestron SkyScout was that everyone I was stargazing with had to share the same ear buds, and only one person could listen to the audio at a time. This tiny speaker allows everyone to hear clearly the audio guide. That makes this speaker important equipment for the SkyScout--it allows family and group participation for what had been a more solitary event. Highly Recommended!
