Pros & Cons
Pros
I am not an audiophile, but imho it's the best sound i have ever heard. The sound quality from the charger 5 is amazingly clear and loud.

Packaging/appearance
The power charger never worked from right out of the box.
Came charged so it was ready to go out of the box.
Competitiveness
If you want a bigger better sound i'm sure the extreme and i know the boombox sounds great, but at those prices i can't justify... Read More
