    Make Sure You are going to use the DJ/Party Mode a Lot

    So this guy talks a good game on the spec sheet. The features sound really cool, mixing from two usb drives, party mode from multiple bluetooth devices, DJ Effects with various party modes to let people play their own music.Setup was easy. Unit was a lot bigger than I had hoped. The music mixing sounded good at first until you realize you can just have it all on one USB drive and do shuffle. I guess maybe it's for two different people to plug in their ipods maybe? The DJ app does the same thing, let people take turns queuing up their song selections. I don't think I will ever use this.

    If bass is what it's all about then you'll like this.

    The good:The packaging was well done and kept the product safe. After unpacking the first thing I noticed is that the speakers have no way of attaching to the main until, so keep in mind that it will always be in 3 pieces. Setup was very easy and I liked the built in twist ties on the back of the speaker for easy cable management. Starting up the system was also very easy, it has equalizer presets as well a manual setup to customize your sound and selecting the source was easily done by pushing the buttons on the front.Bluetooth pairing also had no issues. I was able to stream sound from my ph
