Awesome recommendation.
Its probably one of the best things I bought in the last couple years. I bring that thing in the shower, kayaking, to the beach and use it daily for my laptop speaker. I knew i had to get two because my girlfriend was gonna hog it. And its only 40 bucks.

I am going to check this out. I have a small one that has been great the last 1.5 years, but the battery seems to only last about an hour now.

I've had mine for the same amount of time and its still the same as I got it. Its remarkable. The review on amazon how it survived a tornado and days of rainfall cracked me up. Can't beat that test.

Re: The Audiophile Thread

The UE Roll caught my eye. Still on the small side, and has really good reviews. I think I have enough audio equipment in my house to stay on the small side of things.

Re: The Audiophile Thread

Blzer has just welcomed a newborn to his audio family... the Anthem MRX 720 receiver.

After running ARC, this thing has just come to show that it is a beast. You never realize how much sound you're missing until you hear it. Just wow.

Re: The Audiophile Thread

Does anybody know how I could throw my turntable to external speakers via bluetooth?

My turntable is hooked up to an amp and then obviously the speakers on a console in my living room. I'd like to be able to put on a record and listen to it outside while I grill.

I'm just curious if it can be done. Spotify has been filling the need thus far, but Spotify doesn't have everything.

Maybe connecting it to a laptop could do it.

I was able to measure my new calibrated settings against the target curve (current is in green):
