Product details

The robust, portable SRS-XB13 is easy to transport with its special strap. This small speaker packs a punch: with Extra Bass and a sound distribution processor, it delivers rich sound. A passive radiator, along with a full-range speaker, optimizes low frequencies for a fuller bass experience.

The speaker is waterproof and dustproof with an IP67 rating, sounding just as good outdoors as it does indoors. Whether you're sunbathing at the pool, by the river, or in the park, you won't have to miss out on your music. Need to make a call? No problem. With the speaker's built-in microphone, you can enjoy hands-free calling, whether you're at home or on the go. Use this portable speaker not only for listening to music but also for hands-free conversations with your smartphone. This way, you can easily take calls without disconnecting from the speaker.

With this portable speaker, your favorite music is always where you are. Thanks to its built-in battery, lightweight design, and compact size, you can take it anywhere - whether to the lake, the next barbecue, or just to another room, it's always by your side.

Rank 17 out of 20Stiftung WarentestBluetooth-Lautsprecher im Test - Die besten Bluetooth-BoxenReleaseAugust 2022
