I got three houses away before it cut out. Your mileage may vary I was able to push play on the iPad while listening to the great Betty LaVette singing covers of British Rock songs (strange concept, but it works very well) as I walked down the street. The folks at PulseAudio claim it will work up to 150 feet. Reeves, played a bunch of rhythm and blues using the Bluetooth connection. I used my iPad as my Bluetooth source, and in the spirit of Ms. I got the unit out on my front sidewalk the other night, much to the amusement of passing traffic, and played. What to do with this? Well, it features a built-in Bluetooth receiver, but also has a 3.5 mm stereo jack on it for other conventional consumer stereo sources. High frequencies are driven by a 2 x 20 watt amplifier, and the sub by an additional 45 watt amp. It plays both right and left channels out of a complement of mid-range/tweeters, and features an 8-inch woofer to augment the bottom. It is battery-powered, and can, of course, also plug into electricity. It's probably not a great idea to go deep sea diving with it, but it can certainly take mild rain, mist or dew.ĭid I mention it weighs about 25 pounds? Casters and a handle, indeed.
It’s called an indoor/outdoor speaker, so it can get splashed. It’s about 26 inches high, about a foot round. The PulseAudio PA360 fits this song to a T. Written by Marvin Gaye, his first hit with Martha and The Vandellas, this song captures a sweaty, humid summer day and night fun, dancing with your pals. “Calling out around the world, are you ready for a brand new beat? Summer’s here and the time is right for dancin’ in the street.”
