Tribit Bluetooth Speaker XSound Go [Upgraded] 16W Portable Wireless Speaker IPX7 Waterproof Speakers,Type-C,Wireless Stereo Pairing,100ft Bluetooth Range

Delivery and packing - all good, simple easy order, prompt delivery. Packing compact but protective of the item.The speakers are great - second one we have (stop my wife and I arguing on who is using them!). Fabulous sound from them, good battery life and easy set up.Great to take on holiday - compact to delivery and you can rock the apartment (within reason - the only limit is consideration of the neighbours!For the price, a real gem.

This speaker is impressive, and probably a very much better product than any other currently on the market for the same kind of money. Sound is exceptionally well balanced with clear expression and good control. After a week of heavy use an initial treble harshness has disappeared leaving a smooth and enjoyable sound stage with more than adequate base which does not drown out well defined mids and treble. Using it next to a chromebook via bluetooth, streamed classical music is suprisingly enjoyable whilst speech sounds excellent. It is plenty loud enough even for my old ears.I initially bought a much larger Ikea product and then the 'best selling' speaker on Amazon. Both sounded disappointingly 'muddy' and lacked detail compared to this Tribit. I suspect I would have to spend considerably more money than the tribit cost to get anything that sounds better.It is a pity that this speaker cannot be paired with another to produce a stereo sound stage. I do hope that Tribit might consider this as an option. I feel sure a 'stereo' pair of these speakers would sell like hot cakes.Edit. The speaker developed a fault. Severe crackling which dissipates after about 30 seconds of audio using my Chromebook. Tribit customer service has been superb in efforts to resolve the issue. In the end was sent a replacement speaker, but alas the same problem persists. Both speakers work fine using aux connection, but both are not connecting via bluetooth before having to endure a long introduction of crackle regardless of the source. This does not occur with another bluetooth speaker in my possession, so the problem is presumably in the bluetooth interface between my particular Toshiba chromebook and the tribit (solution anyone?). This is a great pity as I otherwise stand by my above review. A very good speaker.Second Edit. An automatic update to Chrome OS in August 2019 has solved this problem. Crackling has now gone so problem was not speaker related.

I had bought a couple of Bluetooth speakers in the past. The ADX Atom and Mesh speakers in 2013 and 2016 and I thought they sounded ok, very clear and a bit of bass, just not enough bass for me. so I was looking for a new speaker that wasn't too expensive, had good sound and was small and light enough to take traveling. There are so many to choose from it is difficult to know which will actually sound ok and which will sound terrible. After seeing reviews of the Tribit XSound go from ClavinetJunkie on youtube and knowing that he had helped tune its sound through his advice I thought I would give it a try.The speaker I initially received had a problem with tracks with heavy bass, such as Gorilaz "Kids with guns, U2 "with or without you", Muse "maddness" etc. it would buzz and vibrate, like a speaker was loose and resonating. I reported to Tribit and after proving the issue by recording some evidence of the buzzing and emailing it to them they sent out a replacement without me needing to return the broken one. The replacement arrived only 5 days after I received the 1st one and on a SUNDAY. The new speaker is much better. The sound quality is very good and no buzzing on heavy bass tracks. I don't know how long the battery lasts as I haven't had it long enough. It did struggle a few times to connect on Bluetooth when I first got it but I think that was mainly due to the fact my phone got confused with the 1st speaker and the 2nd one. Once I "forgot" the first speaker it worked ok. On my android phone (Moto G3) and Tablet (Galaxy tab 10) watching video is fine, no lip synch issues on youtube, netflix or any video player. But I also own an iPhone for work and that does have some synch issues. Both Netflix and youtube on the iPhone have a delay of about a second which makes ruins the experience. So it seems the speaker is ok as it works on Android and any video synch issues are probably just an Apple problem. Maybe iPhones only work properly with Apple speakers! if you only listen to music on the iPhone its not a problem.The sound quality is really good, very full with clarity and decent bass. I think it is putting out as much bass as possible for its size, putting it on a shelf in my dinning room it is about as good as a mini hifi system. I don't believe any reviews that say this hasn't got much bass. What are they comparing it to? for £30 its really really good. It is plenty loud enough. I listen using poweramp and use the bass and treble equalizer setting which makes it sound really good. For 30 quid you really can't go wrong and this shows how far the small speaker technology has come since 2013 when I bought my first one for a lot more money than this. I would definitely recommend it and be confident that Tribit will be quick to help if you have any issues. I am intrigued as to how good the XBoom sounds as ClavinetJunkie also had involvement in tuning the sound of that.
