I would like it to be a little louder and at top volume gets a little wierd

The sound is good. However, I bought a second one to pair with each other to have a left and right speaker ability. I found it was not easy to get them to pair so I took the second one back. The speaker is heavy and bulky but with a powerful sound. I’m just not sure I would recommend getting them to pair into writing and left speakers.

The SoundLink Max delivers powerful, balanced audio with a focus on clarity and bass depth that outperforms many competitors in its size class. Powered by three transducers (two 89-mm full-range drivers and one 23-mm high-frequency driver) and two racetrack radiators, it produces loud, distortion-free sound even at high volumes. Vocals are crisp, acoustic instruments have warmth, and the bass is punchy without overwhelming the mids or treble. The default sound profile is well-tuned, but the Bose app offers adjustable EQ settings for fine-tuning bass, midrange, and treble. Compared to the SoundLink Flex, the Max offers significantly more bass and volume, making it better suited for larger spaces or outdoor gatherings. Pairing two units in Stereo Mode or Party Mode (via a firmware update) elevates the experience with richer, more immersive sound. However, audiophiles may find it lacks the ultra-fine detail of high-end wired systems.

I’ve been eyeing the Max for a bit now but that price…I already had a Flex but it wasn’t quite cutting it. Bought the Plus yesterday and while it’s not exactly sufficient for my taste, when paired with my Flex in party mode it’s perfection. So now I have two speakers I can use for different purposes or together when I want to rock out. The Max is pretty big and also expensive so this was the perfect solution as I literally thought there was a pretty big gap between the Flex and Max.

love the sound and the look! It sounds crisp, loud, bassy, clear.. Good battery life, great look, feel rugged, Highly recommended!

Bose is always the standard for audio. Nice design also.

Perfect for the beach. Super loud and handle is extremely convenient.

So, I picked this up on a Black Friday sale and didn’t realize just how good of a deal I got until my wife opened it on Christmas. The sound quality is excellent. It fills the room even at a lower volume, and manages a good balance of highs, lows, and mid range sounds. My father, after getting to use it, went to Best Buy in person to buy himself one. So, it’s a pretty good speaker.

Fills the room with quality sound. I bought my daughter the sound link but it didn't go as loud as I wanted so I purchased the sound link plus for myself and I love it.

This Bose portable speaker works great in our small space as our multiuse speaker. We won’t test the louder volume, but for the level we sre using, lower settings, our movie and music sound details don’t get shorted. We can actually hear sounds we could not hear from TV at low volume setting. The sound is rich and clear, So far no confusion for the device auto connect. (We have found our portable bluetooth speakers can jump from one device to another, on their own) which can be frustrating for family members who need simple.

Great sound and volume. Easy to connect. All the quality you would expect from Bose. The only issue is it is a little heavier than I would have expected.

This speaker has very good sound. And it lasts a long time before having to charge it. Definitely recommend. I am very pleased with my purchase

Amazing sound quality and premium feel to it. Got it for my wife as a gift and as a speaker connoisseur as I like to call my self, I was very impressed by this speaker and so was she

This thing is great! Great sound, LOUD can fill a room, Battery life is off this world! .... and you can charge things using it as a battery! Great Product

Very good speaker, sounds great, its portable and i can take anywhere

Easy to connect to and super loud and crisp at high volume. Make sure you use the right Bose app to change the EQ or it’ll never connect.

I really love this speaker. Has great overall sound. The bass level is very depth. The treble is very clear. If you’re looking a portable speak than this is your product.
