it's a cool looking speaker but does it
0:01
sound it let's check it out Dave Taylor
0:11
here and I'm looking at this this is the
0:14
bass pal eye 30 Bluetooth speaker and
0:17
yes it is pretty much translucent it's
0:20
actually really cool looking not only
0:23
that but if you can kind of see on the
0:25
edges here they're actually it lights up
0:27
it goes cycles through different LED
0:29
colors so particularly at night really
0:32
cool looking speaker now let me tell you
0:34
about it it's a dual 10 watt driver so
0:37
it's 20 Watts total and they have a
0:39
passive subwoofer and and the bottom
0:41
here they call this the wind duct bass
0:44
reflex okay it is rated ipx7 so
0:49
theoretically if you're using it outside
0:50
and it starts raining no problem I'm not
0:54
sure I would put this at the bottom of
0:55
the pool and use it however even though
0:57
ipx7 suggests you can do that
1:00
the company said probably not what they
1:02
recommend there you go so has batteries
1:05
on it obviously I'm using it and it's
1:07
not plugged in as a 2000 milliamp hour
1:09
battery which gives you somewhere
1:12
between 8 and 24 hours of play time and
1:14
it'll fully charge in two and a half
1:16
hours from zero so you can obviously top
1:19
it up while you're having pizza with
1:21
everybody and then head out to the pool
1:22
and you got some tunes runs with
1:25
Bluetooth 4.2 which gives you about 50
1:28
60 feet of range though probably you
1:30
want to have your device closer
1:32
genisphere better audio quality and on
1:34
the back there's no controls on the top
1:36
there are no controls on the front other
1:39
than the power button so everything's
1:40
pushed on to the back and as you can see
1:43
in this close-up on the back you have
1:44
the M button which changes modes and
1:47
then you have a micro SD slot oh I'm
1:51
sorry you have the M button then you
1:53
have volume up and down which if you
1:54
push and hold doubles this next track
1:57
previous track then you have aux in TF
2:01
which I know of as micro SD and you have
2:05
the USB micro USB plug for charging so
2:08
all pretty straightforward now design
2:11
decision because all of those controls
2:13
on the very back that means odds are
2:15
pretty good you're not going to be
2:16
adjusting the volume or changing tracks
2:18
from this you're gonna probably do it
2:20
from your device but seriously enough
2:23
talk let's play something so and I'll
2:27
turn it towards me so it's a little
2:29
better audio I know this is super pop
2:36
music it's all I got today so you're
2:39
gonna have to endure it but it's even
2:42
here it puts out pretty decent volume we
2:44
can even go louder
2:46
that's a lot of value being pushed out
2:48
of this thing
2:49
okay that is enough princess dreams for
2:52
me I can only handle so much of that
2:54
kind of music but here's the reality is
2:57
it's not a great sounding speaker it has
2:59
volume it has bass but everything's
3:02
pretty muddy there's no there's nothing
3:05
audiophile about this this is music for
3:07
the beach this is music for poolside
3:09
music for a teenagers room maybe the
3:13
design is really cool I really like that
3:15
it's translucent and the light-up colors
3:17
which you can turn off the light up
3:19
colors are definitely fun you know not a
3:22
huge selling feature for me but it
3:25
sounds ok you know I'm not gonna give
3:28
you any thing about how this is like
3:30
better than $500 speakers is not but at
3:33
the price it's a pretty nice-looking
3:35
unit and because of the design I think
3:37
it's actually could work really well on
3:40
like an executive desk I can see this on
3:42
some expensive teak desk for the CEO or
3:45
something and if they're just gonna play
3:47
some classical music quietly or
3:49
something it's probably a sound just
3:51
fine I mean you know if you're gonna use
3:53
this for your next big dance party then
3:56
you probably want to be 14 years old
3:58
because seriously if you're 24 years old
4:01
you can get a better speaker than this
4:03
for your party come on get with the
4:04
program but again to be fair at the
4:07
price point the bass pal I thirty is
4:10
actually a pretty decent little
4:11
Bluetooth speaker I like it you are
4:14
paying for what you're getting so before
4:17
I mention the price let me just ask if
4:19
you can click on that subscribe button
4:20
always appreciated and thumbs up if this
4:23
were warranted a thumbs up from you
4:25
appreciate that too okay so base pal I
4:29
thirty Bluetooth speaker twenty watts
4:32
dual 10 watt driver etc etc etc will
4:35
cost you $59.99 at amazon.com but keep
4:39
your eyes open when I checked the price
4:41
just now there was a $10 coupon dropping
4:45
it down to 49.99 that's pretty good deal
4:48
for a speaker that puts out this much
4:49
volume and has this unique a design and
4:52
visual so I say check it out if this is
4:55
what you're looking for this is Dave
4:56
Taylor and
4:57
I will catch you in my next video
