I purchased all 3 Tribit products, StormBox Micro, Stormbox and Maxsound Plus for my own personal self-testing. I wanted to see if all the good review were true.In comparison to the other two lower models, this speaker has a good overall sound. From the Bass to Mids it sounds great and loud. Like the other models the sound comes off very clean, no static sound what so over or extra noise coming off the speaker grill. I played all different types of music racing from classical, instrumental, pop, hip-hop, rap, bass and rock.Songs played:* Dinah Jane - Bottled Up• Ed Sheeran (Camila Cabello & Cardi B) - South of the Border• Maroon 5 - Memories• Conkarah - Banana* George Winston - Variations on the Canon• Hilary Stagg - Easy Days• Guns n ' Roses - Sweet child of mine• Yiruma - River flows in you• Post Malone - Wow• Beyonce - Love on top• Cardi B - Bodak Yellow• Matisyahu - One Day• Lil Wayne - How to love• Notorious BIG - Hypnotize• Lil Waye - A Milli• Brennan Savage - To the MoonI didn't play it at 100% but at 75% it still sound clean and the speakers didn't sound like it was gonna pop. It plays the classical/instrumental songs as if it were a Bose speaker. This is not a surround sound movie theater speaker, but it does give off more of the sound than other models. I'm pretty sure if you get two MaxSound plus speakers it would sound like you had surround sound. I'd love to test two of these paired up.I thought I could pair up any other Tribit bluetooth speaker, but that didn't work. After several attempts It didn't pair up to the StormBox or Stormbox Micros. Another thing about the bluetooth is that I was able to control the song being played on the MaxSound Plus through the StormBox Speaker and the StormBox Micro. When I pressed the circle on the Stormbox or the square on the Stormbox Micro twice, whatever song is up next in the que started playing. When I press those buttons once the current song would be played on the speaker which I just pressed the button on. That feature I thought was neat. Sometimes also, when I play songs on the MaxSound Plus it would automatically switch other to the Micro on its own. That's why I gave it a 4 instead of 5. One thing that I did find kind of annoying while testing the speakers is that I would sometimes start the songs on the MaxSound Plus and seconds later the music would jump on its own to the micro. This happened more than twice. I know that the unit you play your Tribit speakers on remembers the last connections. But I tried having the Stormbox as the last speaker being played as well and it also randomly happened to play from the MaxSound plus to the Stormbox Micro. Please fix this issue.This product has some weight to it and is not light at all so I'd hate to drop it. When held in your hand the material is not slippery and you feel like you have a grip. Some speakers and headphones out there have this same mat finish and after a few year or when you don't use it it gets all sticky and starts to fall apart. I hope that this does not happen to the Tribit speakers. It has a lanyard that you can hold on to or latch it on to something like a back back. I'd probably take an S-Caribner with a bungee and put that in place of what is being used now if I were to hang it on to something like a backpack or bag.Battery seems to be good on the MaxSound Plus. It has an auto shut off feature if it hasn't been playing any sounds. This is also for the case for the Stormbox and Stormbox Micro. The Stormbox frequently turns itself off and I have to keep pairing it with the iPad or iPhone which is annoying. After about 20 minutes of not playing anything the MaxSound Plus is still synced while this StormBox Micro is still playing songs. The MaxSound Plus shuts off around 30 minutes of not being used.For the price this is a great speaker. I will have to update my review, if I get a second pair and try to pair the two same speakers. The Stormbox and Stormbox mini says you can pair two of the same speakers “Party Mode”, but I didn’t see that int he manual. Also this came with an audio cable for those that do not have bluetooth capability.I would most likely keep this, the MaxSound Plus or the StormBox Micro since I experienced bluetooth and power issues with the StormBox. The MaxSound is good for an all day outing even overnight trip. 20 hours of play is awesome!
