Unfortunately, after only a few minutes after unpacking the speakers, we noticed the first small mistake. Most of the land to these speakers have piano finish.

Squeezebox Boom has enabled support for XL technology, these small speakers to achieve good results.

When it comes to volume level is that this speaker is able to emit, we were surprised. Sound is loud and clear, rich in low and middle frequencies with tweeters do their job as they were intended. We did not expect this sound quality is a unit of this type only noticeable sound distortion when the volume reached its highest values, but this is normal and expected. Tweeter is working just fine without noise or other unexpected sounds. We had no problems with wireless signal strength or application. Sometimes Squeezebox Boom has stuck to former Internet radio station when we tried to change it, but this was no longer than a few times during 3 weeks of testing.
