🚀 Abunda's Overview

This is our summary and key points to consider based on customer reviews.


The speaker in question garners mixed reviews, with some praising its aesthetic design and excellent sound quality, especially for its size, while others criticize its lackluster bass and overall sound performance compared to higher-end options. Users appreciate the speaker's unique light features and its elegant look that adds a touch of sophistication to any room. However, its high price point is frequently noted, with opinions divided on whether the cost is justified by its performance and design attributes.

Pros

  • 🎵 Great aesthetic appeal with a beautiful, elegant design.
  • 💡 Unique light features that mimic old vacuum tubes, adding to its visual allure.
  • 🛠 High-quality construction, offering a premium feel.
  • 🎶 Decent sound quality, with some reviews highlighting excellent highs and dimensionality in sound.
  • 📱 Convenient and accessible for everyday use in home spaces like kitchens.

Cons

  • 💲 High price point, considered overpriced by some reviewers.
  • 🔊 Sound quality issues, notably a lack of bass and middles, and only average performance in side-by-side comparisons.
  • 🔉 Volume levels may not be sufficient for larger spaces or for those seeking a party speaker.
  • 🤷 Mixed reviews on sound quality, with some finding it inadequate for the cost.

Should I Buy It?

If you’re looking for a speaker that doubles as a design piece with elegant lighting, and you’re not overly concerned about having deep bass or the loudest volume, this could be a great addition to your space. However, if sound quality and value for money are your primary criteria, you might want to consider other options. The decision should be based on personal priorities: aesthetics and unique design features vs. superior audio performance and value.


  • Awesome speaker- hefty price tag
It’s a really cool speaker that sounds great. The light features are really awesome. It’s def not a party speaker, it’s more of an aesthetic piece to have in a room but you can def entertain guests with it. It’s really expensive, but if you’re into stuff like this it’s a cool item to pick up.

  • Waaay to expensive for what it does.
I like Balmuda toaster & kettle. But this speaker is overpriced. There are 3 settings for the lights, but one of them has unsettling sounds of alarms that really disturb my dogs. The ambience sound setting is weak, and it doesn't really respond to the music that I play. The sound quality is nothing to brag about. ... show more

  • I wanted to hate it honestly
This speaker is actually pretty great. I almost returned it before even opening it because I felt like the price tag is a little absurd. But then I opened their toaster oven and I was a little too impressed not to try this device. Realistically, you don't need any of their products. They are overpriced in my opinion. But the thing is, they are above a certain level of quality that you can essentially count on getting from this brand. And that is definitely growing on me. Another review said this thing is like a tweeter with no bass or mids. While I agree the mids could use a little help, I could care less about this thing shaking the table like a JBL or some crappy subpar device. The dimensionality in the sound quality is outstanding, the highs are fantastic(play live concerts on this thing) and even though I feel the mids dragging behind a bit - as someone who literally never uses bluetooth speakers like this because I just can't bare it, I will be definitely using this one. I originally bought this for some room ambient tracks and the dim lighting for mood. And although I haven't officially set that up yet, I think I'm going to be pleased with that setup as well. So if you don't need it, don't get it. But if you could care less about the price, and have a want like I did, I think you might be hard pressed to turn this thing down. ... show more

  • The Speaker that is not worth the money.
I was curious about the sound quality after reading many of the Amazon reviews of people who were given this for free, some folks were thrilled with the audio quality. The speaker sounds like an inexpensive ‘tweeter’, zero bass, close to zero mid-range. Sounds like a 1960’s portable transistor radio, and I’m being generous with that comparison. Audio technology advancements over 6 decades are not present in this speaker. While this boasts nice sounding vocals, it’s hit or miss, mostly miss. I was going to compare this to a Marshall Middleton but there really is no comparison, however, If you are looking for a real nice sounding portable unit with warm bass, nice treble controls, decent sound stage, triple the battery life, an impressive overall sound experience for $299, check out the Marshall Middleton. Back to The Speaker, instrumentals sound ok at mid volume. Going through dozens of music samples, giving several genres a try it was painstakingly futile. Surprisingly, some EDM sounded ok at low to mid volume and created a cute 'light show'. Will this fill an average size room with sound? No, not really. Background music in a medium size room, yes. This unit is a novelty at best. If they remove the speaker and replaced it with longer light tubes, I'd pay $100. It really is a nice ‘thing’ to ‘look at’, that’s about it, certainly not 'The' speaker, totally misses the mark. Going to pack it up and send it back. I really wanted to like this but its a flop sonically. ... show more

  • Should be called "A Speaker," not "The Speaker"
TL;DR: At the time I got it, this speaker was listed for $400, but it performs as well or worse than speakers I've tried that cost literally 1/10th that. After unpacking this speaker and charging it, I was delighted to find that it turns on with a single quick push of the power button, instead of having to hold it for 3-4 seconds like some other speakers. To be honest, that was the last thing about this speaker that delighted me. I've heard that the best song for testing a speaker is Tracy Chapman's 'Fast Car.' Personally, I prefer the Across the Universe version of 'Dear Prudence.' Each of the four singers tests a different range, and the steady, thrumming bass pulse below it all shows how well your speaker can handle multiple ranges at a time. So that's what I used to try this out. The first thing you hear is the bass. It was a bit thin, but OK. From a couple feet away you could almost feel the pulse, but with another couple steps it thinned away to almost nothing. The lead guitar came in with a noticeable hiss that isn't there on my other speakers. Then came Dana Fuch's smokey, sultry voice, very clear and loud, with what felt like a bit more crackle than I'm used to. Good? Bad? Nervous, but still withholding judgment. Then comes Jim Sturgess' tenor. On a good speaker, his voice is crisp enough to put on a sandwich. Here, it seemed...wilted. There was no body to it, no depth. Evan Rachel Wood's voice should layer and harmonize together with him, but instead the highs were so heavily emphasized that she almost overpowered him. By the time Joe Anderson's baritone came in, the song already felt like a muddled mess. He basically disappeared under the sound of the bass, almost invisible in a chorus that he should've been the heart of. We usually pick something from a musical for our second test song to hear something that's more vocally driven. In this case, we chose "The Greatest Show." The initial "Who-o-oa" from the crowd was...barely intelligible. It sounded more like a weird instrument than voices. On the other hand, Hugh Jackman's voice came out clean at first, if a bit higher than I'm used to. As the song went on though, his sibilants started to hiss and crackle. Think "Ladiesss and gentssxs, thisxs isxx the moment..." We actually didn't hear Zendaya's voice in the song at all until we backed the track up and specifically listened for it. My wife observed that the speaker (sorry, The Speaker) seems like it picks a voice to emphasize and amplify, and then sort of buries the rest. Since I'm close to turning this review into a novella, I'll cut it short and say that this was how almost every song came out: middling mid-tones; hissing, crackling highs and lows that disappeared if you walked more than a few feet away. The sound field barely covers our 900-ish square foot downstairs at full volume, and having it that high amplifies the sound distortion. I can't even tell you anything about the light show, because without a worthwhile speaker underneath, there's just no point in watching it. There were lights. They did things. I didn't care, because the sound was just not good. I have a $45 shower speaker that performs circles around this thing. Save your money. ... show more
