It's fairly pricey and heats up a little when played at high volumes for long periods. Also
It's an attractive and understated Bluetooth speaker, which is rare. If you want a Bluetooth speaker that you can take into your corporate office and away on a weekender with your supermodel girlfriend or boyfriend without having them laugh at your bad ta...
