I'll make it short and sweet, the other reviews agree insofar. Sound, processing etc. are good, as described in the other reviews. However, the Bric has a big problem with bass-heavy music such as electro, house and techno. If the bass used in the songs, then reduced the volume significantly (!). Thus, there is in this kind of music lasting changes in volume of "pretty loud for such a small and economical device" to normal speech. Estimated there is about a volume reduction of 30-40%, that is quite clear. So one often advertised high volume does not help, because the unit constantly regulates itself down again. For me therefore unusable. I turn music not loud, so that the speaker herself turns quiet again.
