best of 6 speakers I'd auditioned. A finely crafted piece of art and conversation starter to boot. Just wish that it wouldn't shut down after 15 mins of disuse when plugged in.

Just keep in mind that while it sounds great, you cant use a USB cord to charge it, or plug it in to a 12v cig outlet. You'll need to carry a round the 15v wall charger with you. So not that great to travel with.

After a trawl of electrical shops we compared the sound quality across 30+ speakers at the higher end of the market. This speaker had the most natural sound and pleasing tone. It is also small enough to pack for travelling and the tone/volume knobs can be pressed so they are flush.
