purchased this a week ago. started great. sound was good and bass was deep. then... i kept losing connection to the bluetooth. tried everything. watched countess of youtube videos. still connection issues. read online that there is an issue with the firmware. connected with monster support and they couldn't figure it out. it was returned. brought a jbl instead and no issues at all.

Great speaker! Love the built in mic

I'm an audio enthusiast, but usually focus on home or car audio. Until this purchase, a small Bluetooth speaker was all I really needed for portable sound. I've seen these portable speakers for a while now, but they have been appearing with greater frequency. Took a chance on this one and I'm greatly surprised. Reading reviews for other models started my hunt for what features I needed and which ones I could live without. One of the big ones is the availability of an onboard battery. Some units require 120v at all times, which really stops any idea of being portable. This one had the battery, heavy duty wheels, included wireless mic, and XLR inputs. That's everything I could ask for. I had been using it in the house for a few weeks to get everything figured out and set up, but finally got a chance to take it into the wild over the 4th of July weekend. Lakeside at a friend's cabin was perfect for this. I played music at about 1/3 to 1/2 of it's volume max level over Bluetooth with bass boost on for nearly 5 hours. Not a single bar of battery dropped... A neighbor who came over asked about the speaker and I said it was running on battery this whole time and the battery percentage has barely changed. He was about as shocked as I was. He asked what kind of battery was in it, and I said that I wasn't sure, but I'm pretty sure I could jumpstart a Kenworth with it after seeing this performance. Audio clarity is pretty good as long as you set the EQ to whatever environment you are in. Screen is bright and easy to read even in full sunlight. Only thing to be aware of is weight. It's a heavy guy, but that's what large speakers with large magnets are on their own. Very impressed so far.

Crown Magnetar - Graverot on max volume. Your ears will be ringing as if you were watching them in person. I don't think you can find an equivalent for a thousand dollars. Absolutely incredible.

This speaker is the best.. The sound is mind blowing loud and crystal clear.. I'm very impressed.. Anyone looking for a quality speaker this is a must have

Super happy with this purchase! We wanted to listen to music outdoors while we swim, %26 this speaker delivers powerful bass and loud sound without distortion. I love that it rated for outdoors! I definitely recommend if you want big sound!

This thing is amazing. Bluetooth range is unbelievable. Will definitely get your neighbors attention. The sound is very clear and loud. Bass is crisp. They did it right on this one

It is a great speaker for the price. I bought two to use for my daughter's grad party with about 100 people with maybe 50 to 60 at one time. It was a pool party as well so plenty loud. The two speakers did a great job of not getting drowned out. i would recommend them as long as you can get it for under $299.

very good quality 👌 👏 I love this 😀 😍

Great speaker! A lil heavy. Also the cushion on the bottom keeps coming off.
