I bought this for myself for my birthday and immediately used it for backyard bbq. Sound was great. Took it in a week long river rafting trip and played it daily on the raft (magnetized to ammo cans or dry box) and at campsite making dinner and after dinner dance party. What a hit! Waterproof, durable. Totally worth it!
This speaker is not meant to play loud or anything that has a lot of low end. I don’t think it’s worth the price simply because it has “magnets” would not recommend.
