Turtlebox Gen 2 - ranked #71 of 75 Boombox Size Portable Bluetooth Speakers · Editor's rating 2.1/5

#71 Turtlebox Gen 2: $400 Discontinued eBay

Pros: Waterproof and crushproof, loud with punchy bass. 25 hour battery life (6 hours at full volume; 3 hour charge time). USB-C charging and USB-C output charges other devices, an upgrade over the original’s AC power brick. Pairs with a second unit for stereo.

Cons: Sounds basically identical to the original and the Gen 3: each generation mainly added features, not sound quality. They pretty much lie about all their specs and sound horrible in all youtube sound samples. Only 50w (from their indigogo page), will never hit 120db at a reasonable measuring distance. Putting your db meter right against the speaker doesn’t count, 1 meter distance is the standard. Barely any bass. Rattles at high volume. Looking at it, it appears to be a generic car 2-way 6x9 speaker in a plastic box. Discontinued.

Related speakers: Turtlebox, Turtlebox Gen 3.

How it compares: Just above it: Turtlebox Gen 3 - $30 more. Just below it: Turtlebox - $71 cheaper.
