" ... I am very picky when it comes to sound quality and have many devices I’ve acquired over the years. ... I wanted something small and portable with excellent sound quality and bass, with sound that is not tinny. ... I read the reviews on this product and everything was dead on, exceptionally clear and crisp, stereo sound effects are amazing and the bass boost is phenomenal. ... Repeat… the bass boost is phenomenal!! ... This devise puts out sound that is incredible considering it’s smaller size. ... "
" ... If you want very good sound quality and some punch in the bass you won’t go wrong with this small speaker. ... On both, the Xbass setting works well in increasing the bass for extra punch a lot of people want without overdoing it. ... I highly recommend either speaker. ... "
" ... THESE SPEAKERS,IMAGINE 24WATTS OF POWER EACH PAIRED UP, WITH THE BASS BOOST ON. ... THE SOUND QUALITY IS UNBELIEVABLE AND NO DISTORTION AS ICING ON A CAKE NO MATTER WHAT VOLUME YOU LISTEN TO. ... I HAD JUST BOUGHT ONE AND AFTER HEARING THE SOUND QUALITY I HAD TO GET ANOTHER TO PAIR THEM UP FOR TRUE STEREO SOUND. ... EVEN IF YOU ONLY GET ONE YOU WILL UNDERSTAND WHAT A TRUE 24WATT SPEAKER CAN DO AND HOW GOOD THE SOUND QUALITY IS WITH NO DISTORTION AND THEN IMAGINE LIKE I DID THAT SOUND DOUBLED AND IN TRUE STEREO. ... "
" ... I received my upgraded version yesterday and the pairing went very well and the sound of both speakers together is wonderful!! ... If you close your eyes in the sound field, you would never think that all that sound comes from two small speakers. ... The new Plus does have a Music Mode and an Audio Book mode to compliment the XBass mode. ... Since the speaker is small, I always operate them using the XBass mode to get as much bass as possible, which is surprising for this small speaker. ... Turn on both speakers and assign the upgraded version as your left master/primary speaker. ... You can tell the ThunderBox Plus by a small recess in the front metal speaker grill. ... "
" ... I like the sound and size of the speaker. ... Easy to carry and the sound quality is exactly as advertised. ... I use speakers with my iPads often, so this one has performed great. ... "
" ... I could NOT believe how good this sounds!!! ... Was so excited I had to order another to pair them to have a surround sound experience! ... I have surround sound in my room!!!!! ... "
" ... This one is pretty great, the sound fills a large living room with 15 foot ceilings, the sound is not directional, and you want that in a small speaker. ... I regularly listen to music and talk radio on a bluetooth single 8" powered PA in the living room. ... but I am very happy with the sound, I haven't turned it off in about a day. ... "
" ... This is more than adequate for persoanl listening in any room, and can hold its own when I practice bass guitar along with a song. ... "

" ... after my previous review, Tribit reached out to me and sent me the updated Plus Portable Bluetooth Speaker with 24W Powerful ... "
" ... Amazon Advertisement claims a 100 feet Bluetooth range. ... "
" ... Pairing two gives you true stereo and even better sound. ... "
" ... I read many positive reviews of this Bluetooth speaker and expected it to do what I wanted. ... "
" ... I loved this bluetooth speaker so much I bought another one. ... "
" ... I've had a ton of bluetooth speakers. ... If you were to ask me what the sweet-spot for portable bluetooth speaker was, I'd point you to the Bose Soundlink Flex. ... Don't bother spending any more than that for a portable bluetooth speaker (if you're looking for a behemoth that's technically portable but inconvenient to lug around, the Ultimate Ears Hyperboom is my current favorite, though I'd love to try the cult-classic Aiwa Exos-9 someday). ... "
" ... The sound is slightly softer than when using Bluetooth, however it is still fantastic and a definite improvement over my laptop speakers. ... "
" ... So even if your phone normally (without the speaker connected) allows you to adjust volume in fine increments (like 1%, 2% 3% . ... That should give you fine-grained control and not force sync the device volume with the Tribit speaker volume. ... "

" ... I am musician, from Classic music, to Heavy Metal. ... "
" ... Sound is amazing - I grew up with speakers of cupboard size. ... "
" ... Works great even when water splashes into it. ... "
" ... Out of the box, I was actually pleasantly surprised by how sturdy it felt. ... It's got the well-built mass one can appreciate by just holding it. ... It lends to a respectable amount of grip because of the rubberized matte finish over the whole thing. ... Its got a minimalistic black metal grill that sits flush with its contours and a cord lanyard for easy lugging around. ... "

" ... Loud enough, and the three position “equalizer switch” allows a certain range of adjustment between treble and bass. ... "
" ... Awesome speaker and I might buy another one since they can link together for playing in multiple rooms for parties. ... "
