SOUNDBOKS Go
The SOUNDBOKS Go is alright for music. With its default POWER EQ preset on, it has a V-shaped sound profile overall with boomy bass and a bright treble. Thanks to the graphic EQ and presets featured in its companion app, you can customize its sound profile to your liking. It also gets incredibly loud, making it great for parties. That said, it lacks some low-bass, so you can't feel the deep thump and rumble typically present in bass-heavy music like EDM or hip-hop. It also requires two units to play stereo audio and downmixes stereo content to mono when using it on its own, resulting in a soundstage that isn't as immersive.
