alan_ross_reviewsGround breaking for bass and size at time of release and still has a certain magic about it.
AnxiousCrocLoved this one too, but after not using it for a while it didnāt turn on anymore :( Heard it happen to other people too.
Cap4403I have all three of those models and youāre right. A slight drawback with the Revolve 2 is that it sounds somewhat ātinnyā to my ears anyway, at mid to high volume.
I bought one refurbished from Bose for $92. Sounds really good and the EQ, though limited to 3 bands, is a nice addition. The Mini II, which I also have, sounds really good too.
Caprice-BrotherBose Soundlink Mini 2 The most reliable speaker I have ever owned šš»
CopyCatCuriousUnfortunately same. I still love it though. Iām just a little limited because I have to keep mine on the charging doc otherwise it wonāt last more than 10 minutes
dwbthrowIāve had one for 10 years, napakatibay haha
