Altec Lansing Shockwave 200 Wireless Party Speaker 180W Bluetooth Speaker with a Long Lasting 12 Hour Battery, Multi LED Party Modes, Multiple bass Boost Modes, Party Sync, AM/FM Radio

The media could not be loaded. I paired this speaker with my phone and the sound was amazing. The control panel on the top is easy to use. The power button is located with the large volume dial. The lcd screen displays the volume level as well as FM, BT or aux mode, as well as the bass level. I can select from 3 bass level to choose from. The 9 different led light modes can be selected using the button in the top. The lights can be turned on/off while the speaker is being used, but they can also be used independently when nothing is connected to the speaker.On the back there is the DC power in jack, an aux jack, USB A 5v for charging external devices like my phone and a large mic port. There is also a separate mix volume control on the back as well.I like the fact that it can sit both vertically and horizontally. There are non-slip pads so that it sits securely no matter if it’s sitting upright or in its side. When on its side, the speaker angles upward so that music isn’t aimed at your feet.Underneath there a cavity at the bottom that’s intended for a 35mm standard speaker tripod. The cavity has a rubber plug to cover the hole if not using a tripod.A really cool feature is that you can sync multiple speakers together for a party by first connecting to Bluetooth on a single speaker then double pressing the Bluetooth / chain link icon button which is the name of the mode: PtOn party on and Ptof for party off. Then I can turn on multiple speakers and press party on mode and it connects to the first! I think this is this is the best function on this speaker! 🔊

I take this speaker outside with me all the time; I simply connect via Bluetooth and enjoy my music. The wheels and handle make it super convenient to pull along wherever I go. I haven’t had to recharge the battery since I first got it, so it lasts a long time. It even comes with a microphone if you feel like singing along. This speaker is user-friendly and delivers impressive sound quality—I absolutely love it!When I unboxed it, a piece of plastic fell out, which initially concerned me. It turned out that the battery compartment had a broken piece, and the battery was jostled hard enough to damage the door, causing that plastic piece to fall out. As a result, the battery door doesn’t close tightly, but the speaker still functions perfectly fine. I’m not deducting any stars for that broken piece since I believe it happened during shipping. Overall, this speaker is fantastic, and I highly recommend it, especially considering the great price compared to others that offer half the sound quality!

Received Shockwave speakers in good condition. Overall good sound, light weight and Party Mode is a very nice feature. I do wish it had Equalizer, the bass boost selection is very minor and doesn't make much difference.Setting up the Party Mode is sometimes a bit difficult as the double tap doesn't always put the speakers into party mode. Party Mode does work with AUX, but the slave speaker must be in bluetooth mode, not AUX. The instructions do not make it very clear on this point.Reasons for 4 stars not 5: I do feel the speakers are a bit quiet for 180watt RMS, and one of my speakers emits a buzzing noise when plugged in during music playback. The buzzing goes away when the plug is removed and running on battery. The other speaker does not buzz when plugged in.

This bluetooth speaker is very compact, which makes it great for traveling with. It doesn’t take up alot of room, but it gives alot sound! It has great sound quality, clear and crisp. It has been great to take outside to listen to while by a campfire. The durable strap allows me to easily carry it from place to place - it is durable and sturdy lightweight. Its battery life is great, I don’t have to worry about losing power while spending the evening outside. I really like the colorful led lights, I enjoy using these at night for get togethers. It includes a mic that plugs right in for karaoke!

I haven't gotten to hear the speaker yet, as it came with no power cord and was not charged, so I'll have to revisit this review when I see if everything works and how it sounds. Not only did it not have a power cord, but no paperwork came with the unit, either. No warranty card, no instructions, no manufacturer information, nothing. So first impression is not so great. Will let you know how it sounds after I go buy a cord and charge it up.**Update** The speaker was faulty. It wouldn't charge or turn on. I had a feeling from the way it was boxed, with no cord or paperwork included, that something was up. Sure enough, I was right. Returned and am currently waiting on a refund. Buyer beware.I will give an update on the return process. Hoping I don't have further issues with that.

Like; loud on highest setting, easy to set up on Bluetooth or on radio, having a microphone, long play time on charge (had it on full volume for 12 hours straight on a Bluetooth connection to my phone). Able to play/use with AC power cord connected (I've seen other devices won't function with/when charging/power cord is connected for charging) lightweight (very portable), and being able to connect 2 systems together.Don't like: no holder for microphone on the top or sides, startup intro is loud/annoying at set volume (can't change). Also, you have to be about 1 cm away from microphone when talking. Awkwardly close...If it came with a phone holder compartment on one side, that is hidden and can flip out, that would be beneficial. Without one, you have to put your phone somewhere around the box. I was able to place it a little under the back side of the box - Hid half of my phone(I didn't try to keep my phone with me to test the Bluetooth range. I used at an outside party and was up to 200 ft away at times)Overall a fantastic item! Could NOT be happier with the quality of the speakers of this system playing music off my phone!

This speaker is listed a 75 watts per but it does not close to that level of power. Unable to hear from 30 feet afar.
