Anglers, boaters, and all-around water lovers who want a sonically powerful and waterproof speaker that’s built like a submarine.
This third-gen release isn’t just an ideal pick for boaters, beachgoers, pool-dippers, and water sports fanatics. The speaker’s impenetrable shell also makes it a practical wireless audio solution for all outdoor activities. Turtlebox’s industrial design is crushproof, dropproof, dustproof, impactproof, and, of course, waterproof. If that isn’t enough, each unit comes with rubber feet and stability features, such as tie-downs, to firmly secure to moving vehicles (e.g., golf carts, jet skis, scooters).
You’ll enjoy up to 100 watts of deep, emphatic sound. The frequency range is well-balanced. Bass commands most tracks, but mids and highs are transparent. Noise reduction is the speaker’s unsung feature. It does an amazing job minimizing open-air noise, specifically wind. We’ve previously tested this feature in breezy climates and heard music loudly and clearly.
Turtlebox claims the speaker will last up to three days on a single charge, but it doesn’t list specifics. A full charge is rated at 25+ hours. High volume and multi-speaker pairing decrease playtime by 5 to 10 hours. Nonetheless, the speaker can last an entire weekend when listening at moderate volume and recharge mobile devices at the same time.
Sure, it’s not the most portable-friendly or stylish waterproof speaker, but most consumers will prefer the remarkable craftsmanship and sound over aesthetic flair.
