is it loud enough/project enough for street performing

I have this unit and I would rate the projection as a strong portable practice amp. I have been able to hold my own against 2 acoustic guitars and 1 reasonably amped electric guitar. I have only used it plugged in, so I can't comment if there is a loss of power / projection on batteries. I would say that if the street is not too loud and you are not looking to project down the block there is some chance it may serve your purpose.

Not really! It's plastic and the hopper acts as a resonator. I push it down the curb in the street after I mow. It does a great job, but yes, it is loud. You might try adjusting the height to see if that makes a difference. I noticed that the bottom was dragging a little when I had it set too high

I believe so. We have it mounted on a jail transport van, and it is loud enough to warn pedestrians, but not so loud to wake up the neighborhood at night.

It should be fine on the low setting. Even if it's a bit too loud for your taste, you can always place a dish towel over it to muffle it a bit more!

We have been using a pair of these with a pair of Peavey SP 2BX for our indoor shows for the past 2 years. We mic everything. and send it out. I don't drive them real hard because it's not made for that. But it will give you more low end than without, and in a med to small venue works well. It won't give you the drive outdoors like the big equipment will, I use our dual Peavey 18" subs for the outdoor, and X-large events.

It depends on the gig; I've used it live for small clubs (less than 30 people, smallish room) and it works great. It gets surprisingly loud! For a bigger show you would probably be mic'd anyway, at least in my area so it would be fine for that as well. These days, if you show up with a larger amp you probably won't be able to turn it up enough to work the amp at all and it won't sound good anyway.

Yes and it sounds great. Just used it last week for our neighborhood night out event. Performed well once again!

It dose fine for me. I play both in side bars / clubs and outside events. Most of your loudness is adjusted on your amp or the mixer board. It doesn't have a volume control on it. But I haven't had any problem with it. I plan on getting another one for my 12 string.

The Speaker works well in most noise conditions. It is possible if the street noise is loud enough you might have a slight Problem hearing it clearly. So unless there is a lawn mower going close by you should be fine.

It has a good sound for personal performance. It would not be great in a large area.

Yeah. This sound machine does pretty loud. If it is near by it should do the job.

Yes. I've only been using it outside. It sounds really good and the range is pretty far. I connect it to my sound system and it works great. I've used it at weddings, teaching dances to over 100 youths outside in the park. We do Luau performances outside all the time.

This is a very loud speaker for its size. It will be clear from 15-25 feet away but your device can't go that far from the speaker there is a limited range it can go. This is great for outdoor use. That's all I use it for. This device takes a beating at my job It gets wet and covered in dirt daily. It has never blown a speaker and works like the day I got it. It's been going strong 12 hrs a day for almost a year now this is a steel for 70 bucks!

I would say barely. It won't sound like a booming sound system, more like a nice radio. It's less powerful when you pull out the plug. Ok for a picnic, less good for a party.

Yes, but it depends how loud the street traffic is. This makes a steady wooshing sound. I wouldn't call it loud but it's not quiet either. It drowns out background noise well.

The speakers are loud enough for indoor listening but not for outdoor use (such as in a big party setting or outdoor grill parties). You'll need something louder than this.

Absolutely. This thing is crazy loud. I've only had it at full volume to see how hi it can go and honestly, I cant see ever needing it that loud inside any sort of normal residence at all. Outside in an open yard? Oh yeah, this would work.
