    I bought this with the Sony carry Boom Box that connects to it. I had some trouble with the two connecting and some other connectivity problems. Sound is good and loud and clear enough for this type of product that’s mad for the party not the audiophile. I got this on a really good sale they had in July. Otherwise I may have went with the JBL>>
