    Weve had this speaker for a while mostly been using it for streaming wired via bluetooth and recently spotify through a connected chromecast audio

    Specifically for starters you want to play some music through it for at least 50 hours before making any assessments of its sound

    The sound is very true at low volumes though


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It kills me to hear the audiophiles trash a product like the b2 because it dosent meet their expectations for 300

    If you want to hear the bass buy a woofer 8 or more
