The Party Speaker.
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Beautiful speaker with a great sound and design. Its bound to make people turn their heads just to look at it. Its water resistance is also a plus, literally just left it outside as an outdoor speaker.

Dont let the price scare you. Well worth it!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was very unsettled about purchasing this. I thought the price was a little high. Although when i plugged it in and it easily connected to my phone i was impressed. The quality of sound is amazing. You can add the boost for bass and it sounds even better. The light could be better and brighter but over all a great pick up.

Big ‘Ol Party Speaker
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice and loud. The choice of with or without Max Bass seems like they got it right. Haven’t done karaoke with it but it was perfect for our party. Got it in discount which relieved the string of the price.

LOUD when connected to power
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.LOUD but it needs to be connected to the outlet to be at it's loudest. Great for parties. The app is not great though. I try to use the app but it takes up too much space on my phone. Not easy to use.
