Loud, bassy beast; needs EQ, no aux.

Aggressive-Finish955Buy a Mi sound outdoor, if you want something more cheap look into tronsmart
ASUR_444I got the beast, the bass is OMG š².
Broad-Anywhere-9224I have two speakers Xiaomi sound outdoor, 30w. Absolutely amazing stereo sound.
D_C_FluxI have two Xiaomi Sound Outdoor 30W speakers that I've had for about a year with fairly heavy daily use. I bought these after the battery on my previous Xiaomi speaker, which also lasted about five years of daily use, finally died. If you buy cheap things, don't expect quality, especially when they're not even a name brand.
DrAXaxeYea I also tested the stereo it was good I will also buy one more soon
dsaddonsI just got 2 x Xiaomi Sound Outdoors, everything I read about them people said they were surprised how good they were. I'm adding on to that, they are powerful and have quite a good amount of bass. I haven't even used them past 1/3rd volume in my apartment yet.
