    I have one and so does a buddy. They are good on their own. But when you pair them together, it’s insane

      It’s like a truck vs a sports car. A sports car might sounds better, look better, and be cooler. But are you gonna take your sports car into the woods or throw it into the lake? Will it withstand heavy hard drops? Is it crush proof? No it’s not. They are both cool product but they serve different purposes

      @@evanlawrence9476it’s actually nothing like your comparison. The JBL is just as durable if not more. Had it in the river just floating every week straight up in the water. Still works like the day I got it

    The sound quality is good, but I've tried 3 different microphones and none of them seem to work. The placement of the port makes it so you can't even plug in a majority of microphones because the cap can't fold back far enough to give you clearance for cable. The box only has 4 holes, the aux in, mic in, power, and a usb-c charging output. I feel this is a big part of the review you left out and could be helpful for others. If you want something that is designed to work with a microphone it looks like the competition JBL that's in the same price range thought about this aspect better.

      Ue megaboom or megablast, can connect up to 150 speakers together, water resistant, I have 4 megaboom 3's worth every penny, put em in my backpack or have them hanging with the carabiner and just start jamming anywhere.

    My husband is two time war veteran . We are currently living abroad but still have our Miami mailing address. We have tried to order it 3 times and have it delivered to Miami but they keep canceling our order due to who knows what. . They have no customer service to call and it takes them forever to answer your emails so not worth it 😢

      That $400 won’t be in your grave so spend it on somthing that you enjoy and move on in life money always comes back in the long run so don’t spend year and years not enjoying the money you earn. Anything that brings you joy or happiness is worth $400 it just depends on who you are

    🐢📦🪨❗️
    Never have experienced a better sounding (loud & clear w crisp powerful bass) portable waterproof speaker.
    Not saying it doesn’t exist… but as someone who owned two PAIR on Gen 1s and two pair of Gen 2s… I speak from experience.
    Each time I go to purchase additional speakers I get excited about checking out all the other new models on the scene…. Some of The Others ARE really good… but the ability to play LOUD & CLEAR sans distortion and no ‘boomy’ bass… in the rain…. Nothing has surpassed my Gen 1 turtles… and the Gen 2 ARE better!
    And this goes for various environments!
    1G1 Pair attached to Hobie Island Adventure kayak
    1G1 Pair in mechanical shop
    1G2 Pair stay in old ‘55 pickup truck as a solid sound Sys for that loud 390FE!
    And finally, 1G2 Pair move around inside and out on a 45’ yacht.
