Distorted Sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this party box! Only issue I have had is occasionally the sound coming from my Echo Show is extremely distorted. I turn off the Sony and back on and it's ok. I have Geek Squad repair and was on hold 15 minutes today before I hung up, Since it is in the 14 day exchange period, I will be going to the store to exchange! When it works, the bass is awesome! I won't know how good it really is until I have it outside this summer.

Great Wireless Speaker
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a good speaker and honestly a great choice amongst comparable options. I purchased it on sale and it was worth it for the sale price. My only wish is if it was a little louder for those larger parties. Other larger speaker options may be your best bet if you like to play music really loud.

Good speaker for outdoor/large room
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall great speaker and it is loud enough for outdoor settings, and has great bass. The loudness from 50-80% does not change much which is a bit disappointing, but overall it is a great speaker option for outdoor/large room settings. The battery life is also great, lasted all day no issues.
