For simple, small, portable-friendly speakers, I used various models of iHome speakers (I used to carry a pair for emergencies when I gave a lot of presentations, and they would actually fill a room albeit at a whisper level. The "emergencies" became so frequent I began lugging my small bass amp). Later, I switched to an AlexMic, which, although more expensive, has beacoup audio power AND saves room cuz it's also a MIC. Also rechargeable.
