It is not the BOSE I am used to. Had before SoundDock and was thrilled. This product is still missing at certain volume bass and richness. Now the 'box' is even now not HIFI, but aforementioned Box BOSE was a real alternative for the small celebration / party. Turning the Sound link to, then you do not feel of real sound. However, I give the 3 stars because of the sound itself is not bad (and an additional WG. Excellent delivery including withdrawal!), If, indeed assuming a moderate volume. However, making pure sound technically the Mini BOSE this here a little before all, even in the so great for one-quarter box corresponding volumes! Too bad - is who wants to sonicate the Party, I think, with the lion or even the Bose SoundDock or 10, better off. Had not thought that even to say, but here was not the development of a good box important, but only just a new box ..... a real shame! For normal music listeners very well calculated trend but then pay more for Mini! Hope could help !!!
