kitsound is owned and managed by Kondor LTD, which trades on eBay under various stores, o2 eBay, Vodafone eBay, tech refresh, maybe more, as with lots of companies own brands, rrp is hugely inflated, and those eBay stores probably bring in a nice profit anyway
Why is all this Kitsound stuff available so cheap at the moment?

Yes I use mine with it. The only problem with this speaker is that after a few months you start listening a background noise. I had 2 of them. Same problem. Maybe they've fixed it in the 2nd version

I was thinking the same thing, they look the same but.............. Check this out:
Sound is really average. Upgraded to one from a cheap Logik speaker from Currys for no sound improvement at all. Bought a Psyc Monic which is streets ahead for not a huge amount.

£35-40 for the Psyc Monic is more than twice the price of this speaker.

I'd say theHive2 was worth the extra £5 here. :-)

Yes, but well worth the extra, or buy a cheaper one with just as good sound as the kitsound. It's mediocre.
You may be able to get the Monic for closer to £30 with some looking around or on flubit.
