Wow, so disappointed.
I asked for this for Christmas, and after getting exactly what I asked for I am sad to say I am really disappointed and will be returning mine. I wanted a small speaker system as I have really enjoyed the last system I bought about three years ago. Took it everywhere, always nice to have portable music whether it be tailgating, sitting in a hotel room, or out in your backyard and just want convenience.
I went with the Beats Pill because I knew Dre's line was somewhat known for quality bass in small speakers. With the Pill Box being the newest, latest in the the line of Beats small speakers, I figured it was going to be well worth the $200 price tag.
These speakers are nowhere near as good as the price implies. They can't handle bass at all and pop anytime the music gets above a moderate volume levels. Far from the "Beats" brand Dre has built up as far as having superior bass, these have no bass at all!
I can't believe anyone citing superior music sound quality in a small speaker as their primary buying objective being happy with the Pill Box. Maybe the bluetooth, speakerphone, etc. are OK but they were not the main reasons I bought the Pill Box. Was anticipating so much more Dre!
