This speaker really is something it's a loud speaker with a pinch of nostalgia. they managed to make a retro replica with modern Bluetooth speakers This brought back so many memories now I'm a millennial and I literally saw the end of the cassette era but I did get to experience the drawer that's full of my parents cassettes so many cherished memories were flowing back
As far as aesthetics it's a near solid replica it looks really good I even put mine on display for retro decor. it's so convincing my dad thought I had bought a collectors item. What really impressed me that you don't see now adays it's knobs! It's nice seeing buttons and dials in the touchscreen era the only thing that gives away that its modern are these cool RGB lights the layout of the knobs are labeled well and intuitive to use with a nostalgic simplicity
The speakers on the other hand I would just say they are okay. Not really all that. They definitely pack your punch and will definitely be alright at the party. But if you're like me, I'm an audiophile so I have a few speakers to compare to in my home so audio quality wise it's just okay. It could be a little punchier and a little bit more bass especially for the price but it's not so bad if you think they're just paying for it for the aesthetics it's basically just that chill vibe that one speaker you use when you go to the beach where audio quality isn't being paid attention too. it said 30 hour battery but at full blast with the bass boost and all I got about 8 hours in real world use way less than the promised 30 hours does work ok plugged in and also takes batteries for emergencies but the downside is that I can't charge the speaker easily with a power bank like most new speakers because it has a proprietary port when it should have USB C,which can be an issue in natural disasters since this is now the only radio I'm my home to tune into hurricane watch. Battery backup is nice but only gets you through for a while with rechargeable lithium batteries as a back up but there is no battery indicator it does take D batteries but doubt alkaline batteries will last to long. For some reason it also does not have a low battery warning ⚠️ it'll just shut down and stop working with no indication which is kind of annoying.
You also get good connectivity options between Bluetooth, aux, SD card, FM/AM radio 📻.
This speaker sure has it's benefits and flaws but definitely has great aesthetics wish the audio quality was better but it's ok for bbq or outdoor times when loudness is more important than quality that's honestly why I like it it's loud and cool looking
