KlipschThe Austin Portable Bluetooth Speaker with a 1.5" Full Range Driver, IP67 dust and Waterproof Rating, 12 Hours of Playtime for a Premium Live Concert Experience

This Is A Very Nice And Compact Device, if you have a group of friends you hang with definitely get this, it’s pure bluetooth so there is no aux but that’s ok with me. It has a nice build so you can fit it almost anywhere, good battery life and if you have a sound amplifier on you phone it makes the speaker 3 times louder so if you need something small and loud go for this

This speaker is fantastic!The sound quality is excellent for a single driver speaker. The bass is rich and deep (for the size), the mids are present and the highs are crisp. Overall, I’d say the sound signature is warm and has great clarity. The app also allows you to adjust the EQ for bass, mid and treble (3-band); though I would like to see a 10-band EQ for more fine-tuning. The 3-band EQ is sufficient for a speaker of this form-factor though.The fit and finish on these speakers is great! They are very aesthetically and ergonomically pleasing. The rubber coating is comfortable in the hand and reduces vibration when placed on a hard surface. I like the strap, but time will tell how durable it is. It seems sturdy enough though.The call quality is great as well. It seems to have noise-cancellation to prevent echo when using the speaker as a speaker phone.I’m a sucker for true wireless stereo (TWS) so I actually bought 2 of these. For anyone wondering, once they are paired in TWS mode, they will automatically pair in TWS mode when powered on. The buttons are also synced with one another when paired in TWS mode. The volume +/- controls both speakers and the power button only has to be pressed on one of the speakers and both will turn off. Nice!I only have a couple gripes. The first is the function tones. They are pleasant, but excessively long in duration in my opinion. They can be turned off in the app, but I would prefer to keep them on and just have more subtle tones. Maybe this is something Klipsch can update in a future firmware release.The second is the lack of a next/previous track button. It’s not a deal-breaker for me, but may be for others.I’m no stranger to Bluetooth speakers. I have dozens of speakers from JBL, Sony, Soundcore and others. The Klipsch Austin stood out to me. It will be my new go-to travel speaker for sure!Overall, I’d highly recommend the Klipsch Austin. It would make a great gift for friends and family. They will not be disappointed!

Not 100% sure why this speaker isn’t listed among the best micro speakers like Marshall Willen and Tribit Stormbox Micro. I have owned all 3 now and can tell you that the $60 price tag was a steal! This is my bathroom speaker and it’s the best one I’ve ever used for that purpose. The sound is crystal clear, loud, and complex. It’s the only one out of the 3 that sounds like you are at a mini concert when listening. Especially if listening to pop or rock, it’s perfect and you dont even have to turn up the volume to max like the other two speakers to produce enough sound while showering. Best speaker purchase I have made the past few months and in my opinion even beats the soundcore motion x300! If it’s still around $60, it’s an absolute steal! Get one!

Sounds better than my Tribit stormbox micro 2 but only by just a bit, not quite worth it to me for the premium price and annoyances.Besides being better sounding, the Austin is slightly larger and heavier which makes wearing this speaker less comfortable/easy.If it weren't for the EXTRA LOUD start up and shutdown sounds, I would probably prefer it. It's so annoying that I looked for a firmware update but none have been released so I guess there's no way to do anything about it... Even when covering the speaker the startup sound will startle me and disturb anybody within 50 feet. The shutdown sound can be avoided by letting it time out which is mercifully silent.I can't say much about how long the battery works as the aforementioned issues, mostly the LOUD system sounds, have me looking for something else for my needs.

Very pleased with the sound. It is easy to connect to my iPhone and the battery last a long time. Good quality and the cost was reasonable.

Outstanding sound from a small box! Get two and synchronize them for double stereo!

Fantastic speaker! Well balanced sound. i use youtube music and go into playback settings to adjust the equalizer for more bass. I particularly like the strap on the back to attach it to molle and its small enough to fit into a cargo pocket on my pants.

Great portable speaker. Easy connection and great sound!
