A Good Portable Speaker: How to Choose One
To listen to music on a picnic, at the dacha or on a hike, you need portable speakers. Such devices have compact dimensions. Most models fit into a backpack or jacket pocket, making them easy to transport. Manufacturers equip devices with various connectors (USB, mini-Jack) for connection to a tablet, smartphone, laptop, headphones. Some devices are equipped with Wi-Fi or Bluetooth modules for wireless connection.
Characteristics
To buy a suitable portable speaker, focus on its type and number of speakers. These parameters affect the sound quality and the cost of the device. The lowest price is for 1.0 (mono) acoustics. It only plays sound in 1 channel. Stereo models use 2 channels. Users can choose between 2.0 and 2.1 acoustic systems. The latter are equipped with 2 speakers and a subwoofer for reproducing low frequencies. You can also purchase a model of type 4.0. It gives a more voluminous sound and, as a rule, costs more. Please note: a device in a wooden case sounds better. The plastic device may vibrate at high frequencies.
Power affects volume. When the maximum power threshold is reached, the Bluetooth speaker lasts for several seconds, so the manufacturers do not recommend turning it on to maximum. To ensure the device lasts a long time, you should not turn the volume up above 80%. Take a closer look at the type of food. Battery-powered devices are lighter than rechargeable ones. They are convenient if there are no sockets nearby, which is confirmed by user reviews. The portable speaker can be powered by batteries or a charger. Some models operate from both energy sources.
