Volumen máximo sobresaliente

9 / 10

Su volumen máximo es únicamente excepcional, pero se ven afectadas la batería( poca autonomía) y la calidad de sonido(no es muy buena en la zona de los golpes secos cuando el volumen se encuentra entre el 40% y el 65% del volumen pero se soluciona el problema de manera impresionante al subir al máximo)

Pros

  • Volumen máximo excepcionalmente elevado
  • No depende de corriente eléctrica para imponer una potencia de sonido tan elevada
  • Se pueden conectar guitarras eléctricas
  • Se pueden conectar varios modelos iguales

Cons

  • Autonomía muy reducida
  • No es resistente al agua
  • Peso bastante elevado
  • Sonido que podría mejorar en cualquier volumen
