I am looking for the loudest (not looking for premium audio quality) wireless speaker that can also charge mp3/phone and is under $100. Can this be?

Upon further inspection I do see a USB out with the little charger lightning bolt symbol beside it. It looks like the speaker will do just as you need.

It is plenty loud but I don't believe it will charge your player/phone. As a speaker it kills the competition.

This is a great device, I'm glad I bought it. Sound quality is very good, volume is good, blue tooth works well, not too heavy, quite portable. Rechargeable batter is good supposedly for 6 hours but I usually use it plugged in. I have friends that went out and bought one after seeing mine.

It's not as loud as you'd think based on the name. I'm returning mine solely bc of the volume.

i have a smartphone from Metro PCS and it plugs into there. i use this with my laptop and i think that the jacks are the same size for phones just like the universal phone chargers are?? not totally sure. the speaker jack shouldnt cost much though if you needed another jack (and i dont think you wil) then you could get one for probably around $10 and you could always do that. these speakers are so great and so well priced i would go for it and then get a different cable as needed. also, the jack that comes with this is about 15 inches long so i have ordered a longer one anyway and i got that on ebay for $.99 lol enjoy!

Yes the speaker is very loud for its size. However if you want something loud get the big jambox. But if you want portability with clear and loud sound then get tgr mini jambox, i love mine!

Superior audio reproduction for mp3 devices especially when compared to "dedicated" external speakers in same price range. I have not had much success with getting a strong radio signal so listen to radio online via mp3 device, its a convoluted way to do it but it works for me as the sound quality is so good.

Absolutely not! It is a good little speaker to amp up the volume at your desk, but it won't take the place of a more expensive speaker by any means. It actually doesn't have enough volume to fill a room. I like it and would recommend for use under limited circumstances, but I bought it only to use with my phone. I would say that it increases the volume by about 25% at the maximum. You have to be near a power source, because the connecting cord is very, very short. I like it and it was worth the money, but the text advertising it greatly exaggerates its power, volume, and tone quality. For the back yard, this speaker would be useless. Absolutely not!

Most Metal fans I know like it LOUD. This speaker will not do. It does kick out some good volume but is too small a wireless speaker for that kind of output.I would recommend going into a store with your smartphone loaded with your favorite tunes, sync with it and listen for yourself. Worst Buy carries them as does Sears.

I have not compared them, but the A5 from Bowers & Wilkins is the best sounding wireless speaker I have listened to.

No, I would look further for a higher quality speaker. It's not the best! You're getting what you pay for.

The speaker is pretty good. As with all bluetooth technologies if you plug it in directly to your device the sound quality will be hire. I have other speakers at the same price but I like this one the best. The sound quality is good and completely worth the money.

I would say it is loud for the size of the speaker. If you're entertaining 100 people this may not be your best bet for the loudest sound. The Discoball is amazing though! And it comes with a microphone.

The Behringer powered speaker you have is ok for the price. When you can afford it, move up to QSC K series units.To add to the good advice in both responses.....I suspect you may be using a 1/4" phone plug which may be stereo in a mono input, follow the advice in answer 2, and use decent XLR pro grade cables. Also, you may be over driving the power module in the speaker by using the wrong mixer/out - speaker/in combination.

Whatever the wattage is, it is not high enough. It's difficult to hear and I was disappointed with this speaker. I was given a Kinivo ZX100 pocket speaker as a gift and it is fantastic - very loud and easy to hear - and you can link these speakers together.

use a good quality siren unit that takes a 100 watt speaker. for the price this is a good quality speaker which makes plent of noise well worth the money

I actually purchased the wall adapter charger for the USB cable today. Its by COBY as well (though you can use it for any MP3 just about I am sure). I purchased it because I dont want to have to turn my computer on whenever this MP3 PLAYER needs to be charged. It is actually only $8 dollars (was $12.00) must be on sale or something, so Its not even as EXPENSIVE as some of the more expensive MP3 PLAYER WALL CHARGERS. I hear its great. i am hoping it charges faster than the computer.

I found this review; it's not Dell-specific but I'm looking for a laptop with loud speakers, since they are usually so disappointing. My tiny smartphone has louder volume than my current Asus laptop. http://blog.laptopmag.com/best-sounding-notebooks-good-enough-to-be-your-stereo
