    Great speaker, compares to the JBL in the same class. I like how it’s made to stand up or lay down. It has 4 mids, but only 2 play at a time, depending on the orientation. I like how you can turn the lights on or off. I’ve been trying to let the battery die, but it hasn’t yet. I only play it for about 30 each time, and have played it about 5 or 6 times total.

    Great sound and clear. Has a lot of bass, I haven’t been able to max it out because I live in an apartment and pretty sure my neighbors don’t appreciate it when I pump at 50% volume. The lights are awesome, and it looks awesome. The price was great and looking forward to bringing it somewhere and max it out. Battery does last for several hours, haven’t timed it precisely. Only downside, is a bit heavy at 38lbs. But think of it as a workout!! It’s worth it!!
