    Seems to be some problem in manufacturing quality control. This particular unit did not work after many attempts whereas the other I purchased on the same day worked fine. Was too long a drive to return it. It would have cost more in fuel to make the drive. My loss.

    This is a tiny speaker. I've bought Altec before. They're not big, but sound good. This one sounds tinny, I listened on store floor model and returned it without opening it after an online order. Disappointed, Altec.

    Best Budget Bluetooth Speaker I Have Ever Bought

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is honestly the best budget bluetooth speaker I have ever bought. This little speaker puts out great sound! Its not going to fill a entire floor of your house, but will fill the room you are in. The compact size is great to use it on the go. I am using it paired with my IPad for my office. For only $20, I am more than happy with this purchase.
