ALTO UBER FX2 200W Portable PA Speaker System with Rechargeable Battery, Bluetooth, 2-Channel Mixer with EQ and FX, USB Charging, Mobile App

I did not believe the positive reviews of this product so bought it thorough Amazon as it is easy to make a return without fuss; I would return if not up to the high standards promised. This is just perfect for my needs, village hall talks with sound and music to back up my presentation. The sound filled the village hall with over 70 people in attendance, the music was a real wow. It is so easy to move around and now adds to my battery driven projector so now do not need any mains power. I am now using it as my speaker in my office as the quality at low level is excellent too.

This is a first class piece of PA kit – it works really well. We’ve used it on the street singing Christmas carols to backing music, every week in our Gospel community church Blyth. The app control is really useful if the volume is either too quiet or too loud as you can just tweak it slightly on the fly. We gave away our old portable PA and I’m so glad we bought this instead! It’s very versatile and I wish you could buy a whole rig like this for a big setting as the sound is so clear, the bass is so rich. It’s really good.

This is a very good speaker overall but note (in my estimation) there is limited volume in some respects (compared to my Ev8 and Yamaha Btr100 etc). It's 100w in RMS terms and not the silly 200w peak that Alto boldly stamp on it. They know most buyers won't know the difference between 100w proper and 200w scream your t**s off til it breaks noise. Still that peak capability is useful when a suddenly loud drumbeat or the like asks for it. It does break up when you push it near to it's limits and in tandem it loses control and clarity across the board. My Yamaha BTR100 is the same claimed spec of a 100w but beats the Alto for ultimate loudness without sounding so distressed. Still it's a very nice and extremely well finished item and it is the perfect grab it and get on with it, Swiss Army knife, do it all box. We are spoilt for choice nowadays . Oh yeah, I would much rather have two of these than the Bose S1. I'm NOT convinced by the Bose S1 speaker, it's main competitor at all. The S1 too falls apart and quite horribly when it's pushed. £600+? Nah mate!Please note the Alto Pro app is limited with no mute abilities apart from FX and it is hard to get it to connect. More often than not it fails you may well be advised that if you want to use the extended abilities live you may well end up tearing your hair out trying to get it to connect . It has your location though so that's fine eh? (NOT!). VERY stupidly it has a voice telling you bluetooth is connected. This is level dependent on both the main and the Bluetooth/aux channel. It's ok if you have the channels down low but if not and you are in the middle of a gig it's going to make you look like an amateur. You may think well I will just keep it down low when I set. Trouble is Bluetooth MAY disconnect momentarily and reconnect and then said voice will announce loud and clear that Bluetooth is now connected) Also on Bluetooth it misses out the first note or so of music, if you have a tightly edited track (EV8 does the same. to be fair). Find a workaround or be forever irked. When you get to my age you get irked a lot!Just a little more heft from this Alto Busker speaker and it would boss the market. Still if it is reliable (Alto speakers can be fatally unreliable I understand from people close to me who have bought the TS models) it will probably sell by the boatload.SORT OUT THAT APP THOUGH ALTO, YA HEAR ME?!

Brilliant and small but punches like bigger speakers. Thinking of sell in my Mackies for these.

Ignore reviews that say there is no EQ, there is full EQ on all 3 channels, even the Aux channel, via the app.I tested this side by side with a Bose S1 Pro that I have been using for literally hundreds of gigs as a singer/guitarist. Sound quality was as good, if not better that the Bose, with better features including full EQ on the Aux channel which is absent from the Bose. The overall sound is well defined with decent bass response. I play electric guitar and my only reservation is, so far I can't get as good a guitar sound as the Bose which has an EQ switch that can be set to a guitar setting, but I haven't experimented with all the settings yet. This baby is LOUD! I used it live at a club on Saturday night as an extension speaker, fed from the line out of the Bose and WOW!One annoyance, upon powering on a voice from within it says "POWER ON" very loudly! Apart from that, all of the features are very user friendly, particularly the battery charge level display, unlike the Bose where you have to press a button and count how many times an LED flashes!I continue to be impressed by the products made by Alto. I have some of their TS range of powered speakers and this is a worthy addition to their product range.

I bought it because XLR input but they don't work. I sopke to manyfacturer via Amazon, they said only dynamic mic works. I will return it.

Ok. So the good things:- looks good and very portable- seems to be well built- input, outputs, features- goes loud without a lot of distortionBad:- to my taste average or low sound quality and lack of bassI would be ok if you are not bothered much about sound quality and need something functional and portable. Saying that I don't find this speaker very useful. Not good enough for any serious music while not cheap at same time. Ideally I would advice to increase slighty quality of sound to ts series level, go for 10/12 inch speaker to get some bass even if it means increase of price.
