Solar Sound 2 Speaker System Review

2010-09-07
hey guys mkbhd here back with another high-definition video review and here we're going to be taking a live look at the devil tech solar sound tube bluetooth stereo speaker system now I've been doing unboxing of it but I'll show you right now here everything that comes in the speaker box that's so here you go this is the USB charger for the US adapter of course this here is an audio cable so you can still plug it in via a three-and-a-half millimeter audio cable audio jack and this is a USB audio sorry a USB charging cable so this will go straight into here and that end will plug into the speaker now I did say this is called the solar sound too and that's because you can also charge these via solar power I wouldn't always charge these via solar but it's great because the battery life lasts forever so you can see this is the case that comes in says demo tech industries has a little logo here and we'll go ahead and unzip this and show you guys everything else about the speaker that you might need to know so like I said in the title as we take the case out here it is a stereo speaker system so there's a speaker on this side and speaker on this side you can see at the top here this is the solar panel so anytime you have light above this right now this light is charging the speaker will work if I turn it on there's the power button to actually do so you also have your line out and you're flying in so if you don't have a Bluetooth compatible mp3 player you can still plug something in via this three-and-a-half millimeter audio cable and you'll be able to listen to your Zune HD or whatever mp3 player that doesn't have bluetooth and there's also your USB in for actually charging it via the wall charger so I'm going to use two things off to the side so we can actually take a better look at the speaker it's pretty lightweight like I said if you do want to put this on your desk you do have four smaller whatever you know though the feet that you can put them on the desk so you can actually slide this around pretty easily it's not gonna you know lose traction a little bit it's got a little tackiness but like I said these are these are the good feet that good to have okay so here on the front you'll have your very basic audio controls underneath that logo you'll have your fast forward or skip to next rack or your skip to the beginning of the track you also have a volume up and down play pause and your honor off switch so like I said it has been charging during the course of this review so I'll go ahead and press this button here and you can hear that it's actually turned on and on the front you'll see a little bit of lights going on and it actually does work so I don't really have any audio that is royalty-free for me to play for you guys so I can tell you a little bit about the audio quality without actually playing music and what I can say is that the audio quality is not as bad as you would think when you're playing stuff via bluetooth of course it is not the very very highest quality it's going to be a decent bitrate and you're gonna get a pretty good highs not really a lot of mids or lows but then again it is a portable speaker so this is something convenient safe you're going on a trip with a team or just for a car ride or something short like that this is definitely gonna be good for that so I'll go ahead and turn this off by pressing that power button again and just like that the speaker sister's off so you can see these three foot buttons on the front here are actually flush they don't have any depth to them that's because they are a touch sensitive so if you do have this in a backpack or something you're gonna make sure you want to leave it off so you don't start pressing buttons and interacting with the speaker in your backpack I've noticed that the charging time on this is actually it's decently impressive via solar power it's gonna take about as long as a cell phone to fully charge when you're using the wall outlet however when you do use solar power to charge it might take a full day to actually you know sitting outside or in a windowsill to actually charge from get 0% - all the way up to 100% so I think that's really nice otherwise this speaker system is just really good and really nice for the portability that you get with it again I was able to plug my Zune HD into the back of it and get pretty much perfect sound you don't hear all the lows that you would get if you had a subwoofer or something like that of course but you're up you're gonna get you know do maybe laptop sound quality obviously out of two speakers you can see that there's the air hole down here at the bottom for what little the driver does move and also the speaker itself and that's on both sides so this is about laptop sound audio quality and if you're willing to pay for it you're definitely gonna get what you want you're not going to overpay if you get this from devote X so I'm going click include a link in the description or the downbar as they call it for you guys to check this out so this has been my review of the solar sound 2 Bluetooth speaker from ghetto tech hope you guys enjoyed and until next time I'll talk to you guys in the next review video thanks for watching
