On behalf of father, son and flying spaghetti monster, this is AWESOME! I tell you that over the years I have listened to music on very high quality devices. That's not it. You want top notch sound, pay top dollar. However, this little stereo blew me away. Think about it: cheap drivers (quality loss), low performance (quality loss), water resistance (big quality loss), and Bluetooth music streaming (even bigger quality loss). And you know what? It still sounds great. Sound quality is entirely subjective, but I've heard both great and bad stuff and this one is well above average. At full volume it fills the room beautifully, and it's one of those things that's hard to describe when the sound seems to be coming from everywhere at once, rather than being fuzzy. To test this I've included a collection of classical music, which is a lot to ask of a speaker given the complexity of the sound. It worked very well considering what it is. What is that? This boom box should be speakers anywhere and everywhere. It is not intended to replace your home stereo. could you use it as one Of course, and it will be good. He doesn't have to be the boss of audio equipment. Think about the difference between a Swiss Army knife and a scalpel. The scalpel does an excellent job. The Swiss Army Knife is pretty good at many things. Or, if you prefer, this is the difference between a Ferrari and a Jeep. I soaked the thing in a bucket of water for 15 minutes. I dropped it on the grass from a height of 6 feet. I didn't care. Will he survive a nuclear blast or a manic boy scout? no It's durable, but like all things, it has limitations. It is quite suitable for "normal" outdoor activities. Some people have complained that AA batteries are used instead of a rechargeable cell. If that bothers you, don't buy. How you spend your money is up to you. That's why I bought it for myself. AA batteries can be found all over the world (I bought a few in Mali once) and they are cheap. Considering it has to be an outdoor radio, you probably don't have access to an outlet, but you probably already have AA for your flashlights. If you're out of power for a long time, you can throw in some batteries and play around with this thing to boost your morale. If buying new AA batteries every time seems like a waste, then rechargeable batteries are fine. And all that for $20?! If they asked double the price it would still be a flashy deal. It's one of those things that gives you so much bang for your buck that it almost puts your faith back in capitalism.
