Older model: the Tribit Stormbox Pro (rated 3.7/5). See every Tribit Stormbox generation.

Pros: A fully waterproof speaker that spreads sound all around, with adjustable bass, a long battery and Auracast linking. In side by side tests it sounded clearer and more balanced than the JBL Pulse 6 and the Marshall Stockwell III, and louder and clearer than the Tronsmart T8, with usable bass down to about 45 to 50Hz and more than 12 hours of real battery life in testing. A 30W woofer and four 7.5W silk dome tweeters spread around the cabinet for 360° sound, 60W in total against the Tribit Stormbox Pro’s 40W. Tribit rates the response down to 53Hz, and an XBass 2.0 knob adjusts the bass in 1.25dB steps. IP68 dust and water protection, a 20 hour rated battery, and a USB-C port that can charge a phone. Bluetooth 6.0 with AAC, a 9 band app EQ with 6 presets, a built-in mic for calls, stereo pairing with a second unit and Auracast linking for 100+ speakers.

Cons: It narrowly lost side by sides against the JBL Charge 6 and the Xiaomi Sound Party, and clearly against the Tribit Stormbox Lava. Testers found the mids slightly recessed, and the bass pulls back and starts to distort when it is pushed hard. A single unit plays mono, and stereo needs a second Stormbox Max, since it won’t pair with other Tribit models. Rated battery life drops to 20 hours from the Tribit Stormbox Pro’s 24, it weighs 1.18kg against 980g, and the aptX support of the Tribit Stormbox Pro is gone. Charging takes about 4 hours on a 5V/3A charger, and the USB-C output is limited to 5V/1A.
