    Ultimate Ears Blast and Megablast HAVE NOW IMPROVED!
    5 Stars
    Ultimate Ears Blast and Megablast HAVE NOW IMPROVED!
    Ultimate Ears Blast connects to WiFi with Alexa music built in, or bluetooth from your phone. Waterproof, and extreme durability. It can use the Power-Up charging dock for Grab-N-Go, or the direct charge from the USB cord. Comes with the Charging block also. Sound clarity and loudness is top for a small 360 sound speaker. NOW these can be paired into stereo with 2, or as a party-up group of speakers with UE Blast or Megablast. Dust, Water, and Shock proof. UE also has excellent customer service with a good warrantee. You can NOW adjust the EQ with the free Blast App, or mute Alexa's mic easily. Very Pleased. For bigger sound with expanded volume try pairing 2 into Stereo, or the UE Megablast if your budget is larger.
