Bose SoundLink Bluetooth Speaker II

this is a fantasic speaker – I got this a few days ago really easy to pair to devices its cool it can be paired to 2 at once. Great sound from a tiny unit I am very impressed. battery life over 2 days I used it in and around the house got a total of 17 hours out of the battery but was probably only at %40 volume most of the time. couldn't ask for anything more.  Show reply

beautiful little speaker – This is a really lovely little speaker that sounds wonderful and looks understated and solid. I love the weight of it and it is so easy to pick up off it's dock and move it around, although I find the signal doesn't go through to other rooms terribly well. It plays beautifully in our open plan kitchen/living from an ipad that lives there, but… Read more

the connection can be patchy if I move the speaker into the next room. So I think the sound-source will always need to be reasonably close to the speaker for it to work. However, that's to be expected and I think the sound is beautiful and rich. I baulked at paying almost $300 for this speaker, and dithered for at least a year about what speaker to buy, but I do think it's worth the money. No extra fancy bells or whistles (although I think you can answer your phone through it, however I haven't tried that as I tend to use my ipad not my phone for music/radio), but it is solid, classic looking and so far a very reliable unit.

I received it! – I rang ValueBasket to cancel an order for a Bose SoundLink Bluetooth Mobile Speaker II for I haven't heard anything after 6 days. Customer service rep Marika advised that it had been dispatched and if to proceed still with the request, instructed to refuse delivery from the courier. The following day the courier showed up and I reconsidered the plan. Thank you ValueBasket for taking care of my order and I love it! inexpensive

This is a nice to have gadget, worth the investment – The Bose soundlink Bluetooth Mobile Speaker II is a great speaker. My first impression was the weight, and for a small unit it is heavier than expected. The sound quality is excellent. The pairing was a little strange at the start but once done, it doesn't have to be re-done. The complication with pairing was actually with the ipad, not the Bose.… Read more

I was tossing up with either the Bose or the Jawbone Big Jambox. Its a great unit & does exactly what its meant to do. There is no obvious power on light.

One of my better purchases – I ummed and aahed over numerous wireless docks (yeah... I know it's not really a dock but you know what I mean) before taking the plunge on the Bose. There are a couple of issues... pairing/connecting can be trying... I've found you have to turn Bluetooth off on all devices in range except the one you want to pair with... plus stereo separation… Read more

is poor/non-existent.

Having said all that, it still does what I bought it for... provides great (albeit typical warm Bose) sound in a truly portable package.
