Surprisingly good speaker for the price point.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My first impression was the speaker was considerably larger than what I would typically think of in a Bluetooth speaker. It paired quickly with my Bluetooth device and then wowed me with its powerful and clear sound. It brought out nuances from compressed song files that I thought were only achievable through a DAC interface. Then I focused on the light show, a random mix between color changes and strobe effects that kept beat with the music, and I was sold. Sure, this speaker does not have a battery function to be officially labeled as a portable speaker, but who cares; I typically plug in the speakers for my personal use anyway. In addition to Bluetooth operation, you can also plug in wired devices and daisy-chain the speaker into a second one to achieve surround sound. If you are looking for an affordable speaker with powerful, clear sound you can easily transport around, you could do a lot worse.

Great speaker but not really portable.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great speaker with both sound and the light show. It was bigger than I thought but I have no regrets buying it and would do so again. I was looking for a small portable just for my personal listening pleasure on the deck each evening. This speaker does that but I hate to wear it out on just my enjoyment. In my opinion it it better suited for a larger audience to enjoy. The sound fills our deck and gives the neighbors something to both listen to and watch (after dark). We love it for family and friend gatherings. I have no complaints and highly recommend purchasing it. I should add that I purchased it on sale at half price instead of full price.

The lights makes it fun
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this speaker for my daughter little party on my backyard and it was a hit!. Bluetooth connection it's great, sound?, well...its ok for a small party or just for home use. The lights was the main reason I got complements. Good speaker overall. I m planning to buy an additional speaker so I can create a better ambiance on my backyard parties.

Great speaker for backyard party!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been looking at this speaker for some time now. I finally caught it on sale for a little over 100 dollars. The presentation of the speaker is nice. I enjoy the colors and setup of the lighting, and the sound is pretty decent for the price. I do however feel that connecting the device should not take as much effort as it does. I may be a tad impatient but pairing to my mobile device took some time. I really have not noticed a great difference in the sound of the speaker when I toggle between the extra bass and regular sound. Overall for the money I am satisfied with the purchase, and look forward to using it at my next get together.

Great sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought the Sony x30 a couple years ago which has great sound and battery life for a small Bluetooth box. They had this on the deal of the day and bought one it was bigger than I thought and needs to be plugged in but great sound and paid the same price as the X30. It came back on the deal of the day a month later and bought a second one so I can pair it with the other.

Q: QuestionIs this speaker portable can it be charged and toted anywhere
Asked by Mannymac.
- A:Answer Hi Mannymac, No, this unit is not rechargable. It needs to be always plugged into an outlet for it to work. As a suggestion, You may want to check this model instead, GTKXB60. Hope this helps! Regards, Sam

Q: QuestionHi, can I connect this to a srs xb40 or a latest model like the srs xb41?
Asked by SomeOne.
- A:Answer Hi, SomeOne! Unfortunately, the GTK-XB5 doesn't support wireless party function. So connecting both speakers will not work. Happy to help, David

Q: Questionregarding the "Party Chain" feature, lets say I have 2 of these speakers, if I connect my laptop to one of the speakers via cable (not Bluetooth), can I then connect the other one wireless via "Party Chain"? . pls let me know.
Asked by Djdaddy.
- A:Answer according to the specs on this speaker it says... "You can connect multiple stereos in a chain for a higher sound output. Activate one device to be the Party Host, and synchronize music with the other systems in the chain". So I would think you could plug a laptop or a 1970's model 8 track tape player through the rca inputs on one of these and with the built in bluetooth you can connect as many as you want if i'm reading the specs right. I'm not 100% sure but im getting ready to buy one and i'll let you know if you haven't bought one already.
