FreePlay Stereo Portable Hi-Fi Speaker

A letdown after high hopes.

Support *, AirPlay **, Sound ***, Build **** I bought this expecting solid hi-fi quality from a pair of small monitors, since the marketing really emphasized the sound. It fell well short of that. Compared to my Adam AX3 mini monitors, these sounded harsh and metallic, and the Adams were clearly superior in imaging and overall sound quality. That said, it did perform better than typical outdoor boom boxes like JBL, with clearer sound and less distortion. Still, it didn’t live up to what I was hoping for.

We like it, but it is heavy on the base.
