Sound Quality: Overall, we found the speaker delivers near accurate and detailed sound. Expect fewer distortions or other audio issues. The bass, which covers instruments such as bass drums, bass guitars, or stand-up bass, has good impact and goes deep, but it is a bit prominent and tubby. Midrange, such as guitars, horns, and voices from music or podcasts, is even, but it is a bit congested, a touch hazy. Treble, which may include cymbals or the upper range of violins, is extended, but it is somewhat sizzly, a bit prominent. Does a decent job of recovering room ambience. The soundfield extends a bit above and to the sides of the speakers, and while individual instruments and voices are identifiable, they only have a two dimensional quality. Volume is enough to fill a large sized room.
Ease of Use: The speaker has many features or accessories that add convenience during daily operation. Shortcut buttons on the console include: volume, input selection. Other controls may require installing a mobile app, available from Apple and Android. A handle is conveniently included to help with carrying or moving the speaker.
