"bought for 65 bucks! Such a super deal when these be costing like 200 brand new! For the price I got it I’m very satisfied ... got it soo cheap used in great condition for 65 bucks on eBay. ... I can’t complain for the price I got it for definitely saved more than 150+ bucks"
"They're also super cheap because everyone wants the self-emptying models now. ... I see the older ones pretty often at thrift stores and Facebook Marketplace for under $30."

"I love the bass and the vocals—both come through clean and clear. ... Bass is punchy with good sub-bass rumble, but it stays clean and doesn’t bleed into the mids. ... It’s got a nice texture too—more balanced and fun compared to sets like the Zero 2 or Hola."
"these do perform extremely well in vocal and instrument centric songs. ... everything else felt like a day and night difference between the hexa and the enco buds, especially vocals."
"Clarity/detail retrieval is great. ... Figuring out different enemies from there footsteps is easy. ... it was the 1st time i realized just how detailed footsteps, gun reloading and shooting sounds in val were after I used the iems. Insane."

"not super bass-heavy, but still enough bass response that it has some punch."
"I have finally bought a really good sounding bass Bose portable speaker. ... So I finally got the revolve + and it sounds amazing ... For the price I got it I’m very satisfied with the sound quality ... But still I really like this soundlink revolve + it sounds way better than my soundlink color 2. ... It’s a very great speaker with balanced bass, mids, and highs ... But I really like how it sounds very balanced ... sound quality and volume is great, everything is balanced."

"Avoid the Bose Flex Gen 2 and Bose Max. They have parisitic battery drain of 10-20% per week. ... These Bose will be dead in 2 months after a full charge. ... The units I have are brand new and no firmware update, because the previous returns had the new firmware updated and the drain was even worse. ... This is about as scientific as you can make it. Test every 7 days from 100% and watch it deplete to unuseable in 2 months. ... There's a huge thread about this subject from many Bose customers. Bose knows about it. Acknowledges it. Does NOTHING about it except offer you an exchange. ... Never seen anything like this in other BT brands. I have an old Sony BT speaker that I haven't touched in 2 years and can still play music!"
"The Bose Flex has a standby battery drain issue. It'll eat 30% a week"
"The battery drains 25% per week while turned OFF!"

"The ONLY issue I have with Space Travel is low volumn-ish. ... I'm already the lower volumn person yet must crank the bar quite high (70% or perharps more when outside)."
"I have a Bose SoundLink revolve I'm thinking about upgrading to a charge 6 but scare that that might not be as loud"
"only thing I don’t like when it’s at in max volume you can hear in some songs how the volume goes up and down because its to protect the speaker from blowing, it’s not that noticeable But just a bit of a catch there. ... only thing It does is that if a song has too much bass but in max volume you will notice the volume goes up and down. But it’s not as noticeable, still its acceptable to Hear in max volume. ... Yeah I agree, I have noticed that in max volume that in certain songs with too much bass you can hear how the volume goes up and down whenever the bass hits."

"And also it takes a very long time to update the speaker through the app"
The Bose revolve I got five years ago is the loudest and best sounding for the size I’ve seen so far. The battery lasts a long time and it sounds great.
r/BuyItForLife • The best bluetooth speaker worth buying now? (sound quality and portability) ->Same here! My 2 soundlinks are still going strong and I even still have my sounddock from when I was young.
r/BuyItForLife • What's the best quality bluetooth speaker you've ever tried? ->I actually liked my Revolve+ speaker. I never had connection issues with it, the sound was decent for what it was, it was easily portable to wherever I wanted it to be and it was an omni directional speaker. So it worked great for parties inside and outside because there was no difference in the sound all around it.
r/audiophile • Even if audiophiles dislike Bose, what do they like about the brand at all? ->Ive left mine on my patio one full night of heavy rain, work like a charm.
r/BuyItForLife • The best bluetooth speaker worth buying now? (sound quality and portability) ->Diggin my Bose Soundlink. Thin for portability. The bass isn't mind blowing but I was surprised for the size. Sounds great.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Best Portable Bluetooth Speakers in 2025 ->I do. for me. so I'm the guy who rarely listens to music around others. I don't like listening to others music especially out side, at a park or beach for example. so I don't listen to my music loud out of consideration. this little bose unit sounds great to just chill with on the back porch, not loud enough for the neighbors to hear but it's able to reproduce great sound at moderate levels. I like this flatter form over the round speakers, it will pack better. if it packs better the chance is higher it will go more places with me.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Best Portable Bluetooth Speakers in 2025 ->Yes. I can hear the bass at low volumes. All frequencies are well produced.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Best Portable Bluetooth Speakers in 2025 ->We have one of those still going that is older than 2017. Not sure when we bought it, but have had it forever. Only travel speaker we take on our adventures.
r/BuyItForLife • Bose SoundLink bt speaker 2017 - best battery I have seen on any electronics ->Using an old Bose sound link Bluetooth speaker when I need more sound that the mini provides.
r/macmini • Which speakers are you using? ->I have several models of Bose Soundlink, left one at my previous work facility, all have lasted years and all are in excellent working order. Great sound, and at least 10+ different employees linked to one of them without issue.
r/BuyItForLife • The best bluetooth speaker worth buying now? (sound quality and portability) ->Their portable Bluetooth speaker, the Soundlink Revolve, I think is one of the best around. If you want something to carry to the beach, take to the dock etc…it has pretty amazing sound for the price. I find that it sounds much better than my Sonos Move.
r/audiophile • Even if audiophiles dislike Bose, what do they like about the brand at all? ->I have a Bose soundlink and a soundlink mini and I think they’re both pushing 15 years. The mini has been drug all over golf courses and gotten wet countless times. The soundlink has been outdoors on patios or back porches everywhere I’ve lived that entire time
r/BuyItForLife • What's the best quality bluetooth speaker you've ever tried? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
