@carl669@Kyser_Soze Unless I’ve missed it, the size is the driver frame edge diameter, as it always is. I have personally never seen a manufacturer tout the driver magnet diameter, and I’m not sure why that would ever be a relevant statistic, either…especially on a Bluetooth speaker.
Can y’all spin off a wireless speaker deals site already? I know that stocking 50% of all Meh deals with other products instead will be a challenge, but I believe in you.
Meh, the last time you got my hard-earned money for a ”Wicked” brand product, it did not even rise to the level of Meh… and that time it was only 9 bucks. It was pretty fully shit stuff.
What I find most surprising is that there are still people out there who will buy one of these because they somehow didn’t already buy one (or several) of the 5.68x10^23 (roughly) bluetooth speakers you (and others) have sold in the past week/month/year…
@shahnm
It certainly can’t be because people are buying two for full stereo sound when there is no way to pair any of these craptastic BT speakers as Left or Right channel only.
@shahnm I’ve bought some on here as cheap garage/work or a out door bt speaker since they are cheap and working in a body shop can destroy them. I also have a garage for hobby projects which again I’ll use one of these cheep things for. Enough pop up by the time one dies there is a new speaker posted.
@cinoclav@dino2269 I wish they would sell screen cleaner & keyboard vacuums because this pic comment made me snort/spit coffee all over my laptop. Kudos!
@mike808 It had better be a stereo speaker - it’s got two drivers that are horizontally opposed! I was going to buy one of these, but will hard pass if it’s a mono speaker.
That description of Brush Hour is the first time I’ve ever heard a podcast described in a way that I can fathom why anyone would want to listen to it. Still not me, but I can imagine someone having a use for tooth-brushing podcasts.
@ravenblack There is an actual 3-minute long podcast that is released twice a day and designed to be listened to while brushing your teeth called Chompers. It’s geared for kids age 3-7. https://gimletmedia.com/shows/chompers
@j37hr0 Does it take you 3 tries to get it to turn on? I hate that thing but reminds me since I have that and don’t use it I sure don’t need this so thanks for that.
@dino2269 When I first got it. But the trick is hit the power until you see the green light then hit the bluetooth button right next to it. Then you’ll hear the doo-twang-duh-duh-duh. I don’t have a good stereo yet since I just moved from an apartment to a house, and it’s what I have for music.
Two 45mm drivers? how do they see over the windshield?
@carl669 But also “Driver: Dual 40 mm Neodymium” which seems to contradict the 45mm drivers, but I’m not gonna buy so I don’t care.
@Kyser_Soze how does the magnet size and the driver size contradict? The driver can be bigger or smaller than the magnet and still be a valid spec.
@cengland0 Thanks.
@carl669 Ask Steve Martin (when he’s getting small).

Wireless Bluetooth is so much better than wired Bluetooth…
@GeckoD Wired Bluetooth is much bluer
Another speaker? Will you have another drone tomorrow? And then a charge bank the next day?
@jaynedough Who the fuck has been leaking the sales plan?!

@Telanis I would unironically subscribe to and buy regularly from such a website.
@Telanis As would this fella

@RedOak It says “deuce” right on the box, man! Stay away!
@RedOak I still have mine unopened, new in the box. I still haven’t found an eight year old kid who’ll take it.
@Euniceandrich at least you can still harbor the illusion these plastic devices are capable of producing melodic sounds.

We’re using them as LEGO blocks. LEGO blocks.

Because that would be … useful.

@shahnm i don’t have two for every room yet
I read it as an “ouchy extreme” speaker and now I want whatever that is.

I think I like Wicked Weasel better ! https://wickedweasel.com/en-us
@BuddTX WOW so do I!
@BuddTX Thanks for THAT Budd!
I was in the market for a new cover-up and I think you just found my new go to site!!
@BuddTX Followed by Socks or Bed Sheets
Here’s a review for it… one that doesn’t bother to talk about the actual sound?!?
Also, a semi-useless “unboxing” video…
@haydesigner
Is this review a parody?
Love today’s face. It has an evil smile.
@cengland0 - I believe that is a wicked smile.
@ashemo
wicked smile …you from MA?
@chienfou - Nah, but I did spend some time in New Hampsha.
not bad for $5 if you have a pastadrop promo code from sending pasta to an unsuspecting victim.
Meh, do you think your customers will get the reference to the Broadway show? I think the show has singers, not speakers.
how many watts?
@dino2269 Two of them. There’s a third, but he’s too good for them.
@cinoclav @dino2269 I wish they would sell screen cleaner & keyboard vacuums because this pic comment made me snort/spit coffee all over my laptop. Kudos!
@Domineaux Screen cleaner tends to come in the Irks. Sorry about the keyboard.
@cinoclav Absolutely no worries! #WorthIt The meme was perfection.
@dino2269 Really. But I guess it doesn’t matter with two drivers smaller than my wristwatch.
EXTREME!

@awk @mike808 A fellow Stargate Fan!!!
@awk @mike808 So, we can walk thru walls? Yes, because you are “out of phase”! So why dont we fall thru the floor? We will get back to you!
Is this thing stereo or do I need to buy two of them?
If one does buy two, how would they set or know which one is on the left or right channel?
@mike808 use an audio cable splitter and the aux in ports. Of course that wont be wireless but it will be stereo.
@braveit1
TL;DR So that’s a “no”.
I guess they designed a stereo transmission protocol, but forgot about a separate L/R pairing protocol.
/image lovitz yeah, that’s the ticket
@mike808 It had better be a stereo speaker - it’s got two drivers that are horizontally opposed! I was going to buy one of these, but will hard pass if it’s a mono speaker.

Good. If this was 2015.
How good (loud) is this ? Anyone?
@anelito Not “great outdoors” loud…
@Deezy thanks
how many whats?
@capnjb What watts?
My Klipsch Groove is still getting the job done.

@candiedisilvio1 @dino2269 @j37hr0
that/that/that … happy?
I’m just imagining all the “enhanced bass” those massive 45mm drivers can pump out.
Mediocre has to be defying gravity with all of these speaker sales. It’s like speaker docks all over again. Surely the market has hit critical mass?
@jbartus
That gave me a headache
