    Wonderfully compact size for travel, but the sound quality leaves a lot to be desired. Lyrics sound muddy and music in general is flat. If you move around a lot this can certainly be a good option, but I wouldn't suggest it for primarily home use.

    I like this speaker, i think it's cool that you can use 2 and have stereo sound, the added strap was a bonus, only drawback is that its not really too loud, for 60$ it should've been a little louder.
