Loud and clear

It sounds loud and clear and can hear it from far away. The only flaw I see is that a handle would be nice or something of that sort to carry around.

Good sound and features, volume could be louder
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality is good, but the speaker didn’t get quite as loud as I was hoping it would be. That is really my only complaint but My primary use is outdoors on a boat. If you aren’t in a wide open space or don’t need a lot of volume this is a great speaker.
