Seriously. I know meh feels they need to get their money’s worth out of the employee they hired just to source multiple terrible bluetooth speakers every week, but it’s time to cut their losses and move on.
@cengland0 I have one at work, one in my bag for when I travel, and one for my back porch/dining room. Probably two too many, but whatever, they were cheap.
I was hoping for more batteries. We got the NiMH, then we got the Li-Ion, today should’ve been a big-ass refurbished lead-acid car battery. BATTERY TRIFECTA.
Get the hidden message??? BLUE tooth speaker!!! Texas is a RED state!
I hope all the people that posted these “colorful euphemisms” never run for any kind of elected office in the future!
@xamindar Different colors with different prices. For some reason Camelcamelcamel defaulted to green but if you change it to black, you’ll see it does have a higher price.
Well, it was a good run. Bought for two days straight and now we’re back to speakers again. I’m not mad. Besides, I bought speakers from Meh already; I think it should an unofficial rule as a VMP to do so.
Looks exactly like a K3 Storm speaker I bought a couple of years ago. The only difference I see is the hook for the strap. That one worked for a few months and then just died. POS.
My non-technical Dad has been looking for a speaker to take kayaking that he can plug his Discman into. Yes, I said Discman. Most of the speakers out there that are a little bit waterproof don’t have line-in, or they cost a fortune so when he inevitably drops this over the side of the kayak or it rusts (he’s been kayaking for 10 years and has lost 3 cellphones, a wallet, his keys, a GPS… the list goes on) having spent $25 on it won’t feel too bad. In for 1 - would have liked orange but it’s sold out so Dad’s getting a black one. Happy retirement, Dad.
My Fookin speaker wont hold a gd charge. So it sounds decent plugged in all the time, but I feel weird with the carabiner on my hip while I stand near the power strip. I did get one of those pulley long orange electric cables and walked around with my speaker while rocking. However, a 50 foot radius is limiting my typical jam sessions. Also, wife wants the damn cord back for Christmas light reasons. Anyway, the lemon speaker I got is a sunuvabitch. Hopefully we can get some knives back on here. Its hard for them to get electronically fucked up. I know MEH will get this shit sorted out for me, because their service is MEH. Any providers of service less than MEH can eat a bag of dicks and die in a fire.
Received mine and have been using it off an on. It is good on the high end of sound but at lower volumes there is a faint hiss/buzz of background noise. Is especially noticeable with spoken word such as podcasts. So meh.
Mine is holding a charge for the time being at least. Took awhile to charge the initial time though.
The left channel on mine is dead in bluetooth mode. It does work using the patch cord in AUX mode. After learning I bought it from MEH, RIF tech support said they would not help me, but that I should check to make sure there wasn’t plastic covering over the left speaker…as if a plastic cover would completely block audio from the left speaker when it was in bluetooth, but that same audio- deadening plastic would not block the audio from that same speaker when it was playing audio from the cord.
@sammydog01 Thanks. I will keep that in mind. It depends if they write back to me explaining the logic of the magic plastic that blocks some audio but not all audio.
@actingman To be fair, RIF6 has acknowledged that they missed what I told them. And this is their reason for not supporting items sold by others: “However, seeing that this was not purchased directly from us, we cannot do anything from our end as we cannot vouch for the condition of the unit sold by a third-party seller.”
So now it is up to MEH. I notified them yesterday about it.
@sammydog01 Well, maybe with their next product they won’t include a card saying to contact them if there is the slightest problem…to give their customer service a try.
Below it says “We’re not being dramatic. Our team of in-house, specifically trained, tech savvy problem solvers is always at the ready to listen to any feedback, answer every question, and solve any technical difficulties.”
Only one speaker works (Bluetooth, never tried wired) on mine but the battery holds a long charge. When I leave it playing for a long time it seems like the Bluetooth connection gets corrupted because I have to disconnect and reconnect it for it to play properly. (Never happened with any of my other speakers, including those LED light speakers sold here.)
The sound is decent for the price but not entirely satisfied with the performance.

@AttyVette Untz Untz Untz!
Of all nights to sell a knife and there’s no knife.
ARE YOU GUYS FUCKING SERIOUS ON A DAY LIKE TODAY YOU POST A GODDAMN BLUETOOTH SPEAKER?
@CaptainAssholay probably a speaker of the house sale
@CaptainAssholay What, you think today shouldn’t be a tremendous disappointment?
@AttyVette Now that’s funny. I physically LOL’d on that one.
@CaptainAssholay LMAO! that’s hilarious.
@AttyVette i “Heard” that too.
How many bluetooth speakers can a person possibly use? One is enough for me.
@cengland0 I’ve got three…and use one on occasion.
Seriously. I know meh feels they need to get their money’s worth out of the employee they hired just to source multiple terrible bluetooth speakers every week, but it’s time to cut their losses and move on.
@cengland0 I have one at work, one in my bag for when I travel, and one for my back porch/dining room. Probably two too many, but whatever, they were cheap.
Was totes expecting an election day themed fuko.
We’re all going to die and the best you can do is a motherfucking Bluetooth speaker?
Perfect. Tomorrow better be a knife. You know, for kristallnacht 2.0
The only thing I miss about woot is actual informative posts about the product being sold instead of puns and jokes all the time.
@Drunkenalien These are jokes ?
@jmbunkin and Woot has informative posts?
Nothing makes me want to buy something more is when I see a picture of a bunch of doucebags drinking beer on the beach…
A bluetooth speaker?
How unexpected!
No
I was hoping for more batteries. We got the NiMH, then we got the Li-Ion, today should’ve been a big-ass refurbished lead-acid car battery. BATTERY TRIFECTA.
I was looking for a new Bluetooth speaker. My JBL Charge doesn’t hold its charge for very long anymore. In for 1.
@SHWOO
i need a margarita.
and a hug.
I kinda feel like I need an enema…
@haydesigner Are there margarita enemas? What do you do with the salt?
@mehcuda67 You have someone lick it off your…the rim. Of course.
@CKizziar But for God’s sake don’t eat the worm
Ahh…a speaker to play the sweet sounds of victory for freedom in America! How appropriate!
Get the hidden message??? BLUE tooth speaker!!! Texas is a RED state!
I hope all the people that posted these “colorful euphemisms” never run for any kind of elected office in the future!
What’s this “$94 at Amazon”? The highest it ever was at Amazon was $49.99. and it was usually around $33. They trying to fool us?
@xamindar Different colors with different prices. For some reason Camelcamelcamel defaulted to green but if you change it to black, you’ll see it does have a higher price.

About 3 of all the 5 star reviews got the speaker free to review
I wanted green but I got black…ditto last eight years
47 cubic inches? Bah, its only 37…otherwise…still meh.
I get one, but my 401K just tanked. Thanks, voters.
I bought one. In orange. That will make me feel better, right?
Well, it was a good run. Bought for two days straight and now we’re back to speakers again. I’m not mad. Besides, I bought speakers from Meh already; I think it should an unofficial rule as a VMP to do so.
@JT954 I had better get crackin’!
Meh, maybe next time…
Looks exactly like a K3 Storm speaker I bought a couple of years ago. The only difference I see is the hook for the strap. That one worked for a few months and then just died. POS.
It’s good to see Anthony Michael Hall is still getting work…
In for two. Two lucky suckers are getting some bluetooth speakers as presents.
My non-technical Dad has been looking for a speaker to take kayaking that he can plug his Discman into. Yes, I said Discman. Most of the speakers out there that are a little bit waterproof don’t have line-in, or they cost a fortune so when he inevitably drops this over the side of the kayak or it rusts (he’s been kayaking for 10 years and has lost 3 cellphones, a wallet, his keys, a GPS… the list goes on) having spent $25 on it won’t feel too bad. In for 1 - would have liked orange but it’s sold out so Dad’s getting a black one. Happy retirement, Dad.
@Tygress How nice! Too bad orange was sold out- it would be easier to spot at the bottom of a river.
@sammydog01 I thought so too! Also it clashed more with the purple kayak.
My Fookin speaker wont hold a gd charge. So it sounds decent plugged in all the time, but I feel weird with the carabiner on my hip while I stand near the power strip. I did get one of those pulley long orange electric cables and walked around with my speaker while rocking. However, a 50 foot radius is limiting my typical jam sessions.

Any providers of service less than MEH can eat a bag of dicks and die in a fire.
@jamminonthejuan Mine works fine. But it is heavy- I’m pretty sure if I hooked it to my belt it would pull my pants off.
Received mine and have been using it off an on. It is good on the high end of sound but at lower volumes there is a faint hiss/buzz of background noise. Is especially noticeable with spoken word such as podcasts. So meh.

Really?
@actingman You may want to call back and tell them it came from “A Mediocre Company”. That’s their official name.
@sammydog01 Thanks. I will keep that in mind. It depends if they write back to me explaining the logic of the magic plastic that blocks some audio but not all audio.
@actingman To be fair, RIF6 has acknowledged that they missed what I told them.

So now it is up to MEH. I notified them yesterday about it.
@actingman Not an acceptable answer. You bring the torch, I’ll bring the pitchfork. Where exactly is their headquarters?
@sammydog01 Well, maybe with their next product they won’t include a card saying to contact them if there is the slightest problem…to give their customer service a try.
@actingman Oh yeah, that card gave CS a really stupid name too- I threw the card out, what was it?

@braveit1
Contact Meh support (and not just because RiF will tell you to do so).
I bought two of these speakers. One of them will not recharge. What do I do?
@maurentm contact meh.com/support and the warrenty people at https://rif6.com/contact/
if the warrenty people say no then meh will help you out
