I just received a defective item. The loud speaker cannot be fixed. Low quality. They even don't bother to check the parts.

Okay, I wanted a bluetooth speaker but didn't want one that looked as if it were made by Mattel or dropped off by Skynet, and came across this one made by Meageal. "Retro" is right! This looks like a vintage gramophone that would need to be hand-cranked to play some equally vintage vinyl. :DAt first I was a bit surprised by the price, but given the claims of copper this and brass that, I gave it a shot. What I was expecting was copper-flashed plastic or such, lightweight and flimsy, but this gramophone isn't that at all. It's a solid hunk of metal! Heavy, stout, solid, not at all flimsy. Color me impressed!Speaking of color, the base is a beautiful brushed-copper that looks "aged". Exposed areas are a bit brighter, and in the creases and recesses are darker areas. Edgework looks almost polished. Pictures just don't do it justice. The "flower" is more of a brass color that complements the copper, also a brushed finish. There's an ornate grille over the tweeter in the center, which is polished smooth.The face plate in front is where all the business is done. The USB port and line-in jacks are there, as is an array of 6 buttons to select various functions. More on that in a minute.As is clearly stated in the title, descriptions, etc., there's no actual turntable. What this is, is a bluetooth speaker plus. The "plus" part is that it also takes line-input (via 1/8" stereo cable, included), and also USB input from a flash-drive. The wall-wart type AC adapter powers the unit, and plugs in from behind. A rubber cap covers that port when not in use.Soundwise, one of the first things I noticed is a "subwoofer" on the bottom of the unit. It's exposed, no grille to protect it, so be careful to make sure you don't place the base over an object which could damage it (ashtray, car-keys, etc.) when setting it down. A pair of speakers (left/right) are on the sides of the unit, covered with a similarly styled grille as what covers the tweeter in the flower. Finally, there's the aforementioned tweeter.At first I was afraid that maybe the "speakers" on the side would just be ports, and mono sound produced by a full-range speaker at the bottom. Again, wrong. :D The woofer is just that, and there are indeed two separate speakers, one on each side. I had to find a song which clearly had good channel separation, and the intro to AC/DC's "Hell's Bells" fit the bill. Indeed, it's full stereo! I was almost subconsciously trying to find some sneaky cheap-out trick, but there wasn't any. :DBluetooth worked flawlessly. It paired with my phone instantly. Line-input worked flawlessly as well, plug'n'go. I didn't try the USB port yet, as I'd need to throw some albums onto it and see how it'd work, so I can update this section later.Front-panel controls are on/off/mode, pause/play, previous, next, volume-down, and volume-up. Simple. You can also control everything right from the phone as I did.Sound quality is pretty good given the size of the unit. The four speakers (woofer, tweeter, two midranges) put out some impressive volume. Obviously it's not going to be audiophile quality sound, but the speakers do a good job. The woofer especially gives the sound a bit more oomf on the lower end.If I had to find something to complain about, it might be that the "flower", while secure, rotates a bit too freely. I don't know if that's by design, to be able to "aim" it in a particular direction, but just brushing it with a finger or tilting the unit a bit can get it to swivel. (The flower has to be aimed left/right for it to be inserted or removed, and is otherwise held captive by two "Frankenstein bolts" on the pointy end, so it's not about to just fall out or anything.)AEsthetically, it's almost artwork. The combination of copper and brass is spot-on. Fit and finish is excellent. The brushed texture should keep fingerprints from messing with the appearance. This is no toy, but a nice solid accent to any room. Its vintage and retro appearance would impart a touch-of-class to any room, too, as long as the room isn't some chrome-and-glass nightmare. :DSo, all in all, it's impressive! Good quality sound, hefty and solid, and stunning to look at. That about sums it up. :DNicely done!
