This speaker is hands-down the best. I do value my hearing after all. then I hit on the fix of my own, use the micro-usb cable as an antenna (maybe others have found the same) and this has boosted the FCC muted power to substantial proportions. Not the end of the world, but wasnt what I was expecting. Although I had to tweak the EQ on my amp head to accommodate the different mic, the rest was really very rewarding - especially for "live" gigs. So far on discord, they have noticed i sound a lot clearer, as well as picking up more of the low end of my voice, where the mod mic seemed to lack the bass-y-ness of my voice. As you can see in the video, there are some very small gaps around the sides of the closed case. This is an item I would have returned were it not for current COVID situation. You would think it?s 2019 and the technology would be better. If there is a feature that Im missing that allows you to remotely answer your phone, I cant find it myself.
