I truly don't have a lot of savvy when it comes to speakers and things like that. However, every young person today knows what is good and what they want. (They want the BEST) I received this great little speaker that I purchased, and my son tried it out for me. Now he has decided that he needs to own it. Told me to buy another one for me. So the speaker is GREAT... obviously and now I have to buy another since the one I bought belongs to my 22 year old now.!!
