Are there any recommendations for battery maintenance?
Block Rocker Plus utilises a Lead Acid Battery - For best practice, ensure Block Rocker Plus is fully charged before stored away for any long periods.
How can I achieve the best sound?
Make sure the output from your audio source is below 90% - If you're using a smart phone, use the equaliser from your favourite music app to enhance certain frequencies.

Most laptops do include some sort of Bluetooth functionality, however, this is often a type of Bluetooth intended solely for mice and keyboards; not for streaming audio. In order to stream audio via Bluetooth, your laptop will need to be compatible with the A2DP Bluetooth profile which is common in most phones and tablets, but not as popular in laptops or other computers.
It's possible that your laptop could connect to a Bluetooth speaker even without the A2DP profile, but you will very likely experience playback issues (no sound or drop-outs) or you will be unable to use the speaker as an audio output device. If you're experiencing issues playing back audio from a laptop, try your speaker with a smartphone or tablet before assuming something is wrong with the speaker. Also, be wary of inexpensive USB Bluetooth dongles which promise to add Bluetooth to older computers that don't already have wireless capabilities.

Introduction: I am happy with this unit. The sound is mostly clean and it does have a nice bit of volume, please keep that in mind when reading technical thoughts below.
use case Scenarios? Who may want to seriously think about purchasing?
College students in Dorm rooms. Those working outdoors or in a large warehouse style building. Campers/outdoors men. Guitarists looking for a very clean sounding battery powered amp for acoustic guitars. DJ's looking for a small rig that won't brake the bank. Small groups/ small churches, toastmasters etc.
Exterior features:
Units outer casing is plastic which seams strong.
I love that this unit has wheals and a telescoping suitcase like handle that pops up from the back. The unit is very easy to roll and control.
The speaker grill is metal, much like on a PA standalone speaker.
I feel a nice edition to a future version of this unit would be to ad a standard speaker stand tripod mount on the bottom so that it could be lifted up off the ground.
As someone who can not see, I am unable to tell the battery status of the unit, as unlike some BT devices it's charge does not show up on a smartphone.
Volume controls are easy to turn and have more play than I would like.
I do appreciate the tactile mark on each volume to understand how loud the unit is without looking at it.
Audio quality/sound:
The Microphone included with the unit is a joke. If you want something intelligible, may I suggest the Shure SM-58.
Audio output from this single speaker unit is obviously mono which is fine for events. The audio from the source is mixed from both channels into Mono so you aren't going to lose any single channel.
The cab is totally sealed, no ports for bass kick which is a good thing for something that will be outside to not get dirt in the cab.
Preamps are quieter than I expected.
Inputs, jacks and Bluetooth seam to be quite hot, this is before audio hits the amp/volume nobs so nothing you can do about it.
Using an iOS device, you need to have your device volume three clicks down from the top to eliminate audible clipping/distortion.
Their is a ground loop/static when charging a tablet/device from the USB jack, and also running this same device into either the Line/aux or Mic jack
Volume of the unit:
The unit does get quite loud and is clear. The volume does cover a block depending on buildings in it's way.
Remember that this is only one speaker, such as, one side of a PA system and runs off of battery, so it is quite awesome what you get.
When you start turning the master up, you get a lot of volume right away.
When you get past half with the tactile mark past 12 o'clock the amp is being pushed close to it's max for clean audio, towards clipping/distortion. Their is more play in the volume, meaning that you can turn the nob and not a lot of actual volume increase, but audio starts to distort.'
Overall tone of the unit:
sub bass/lows: Don't exist: 0-45HZ. though You will still hear mid range bass which accounts for sub bass in headphones or systems with no subs because of how a lot of today's music is produced. The G Sharp 50 HZ in a number of today's hip-hop songs though is present.
mid range Lows: their is a boost between 80-150 HZ (especially when the bass boost is on) which is heard more in close proximity which seams to color the sound.
At times, kick drums (acoustic/synth) are not always tight, quarter second delay and you hear a bit of an extra thump.
Mids: Seam to nicely fit in the mix.
Highs: It seams between 10-16KHZ drop off a bit which makes this unit seam a bit more mid range and bass heavy.
Bass boost button, helps to tighten up the sound, is a must.
No onboard EQ to customize things. If your using Spotify as your main music source, may I suggest the following EQ settings for cleaner less muddy audio.
60H/z=5
150HZ=-10
400HZ=-1
1KHZ=-1
2.4KHZ=-1
15KHZ=2
Guitarists: Sounds great with an acoustic with an active pickup running into the Quarter Inch mic jack. Honestly much cleaner than I would have expected. Depending on your pickup system, you may have to have your guitars volume at less than 100%/all the way up to keep from clipping. The boost in the mid range bass actually brings out nice tone in an acoustic guitar. This alone with it's battery power, at it's price point is a steal for an acoustic amp!
Button/nob/socket layout.
Face/front of unit top left side of panel: quarter inch Microphone input, to the right eighth inch line/aux input. Top Right side of panel: USB charging port.
lower left side of panel: Microphone input volume nob, Same spot on the right side of panel Master output nob.
Buttons: To the right of the microphone nob: top to bottom: On/Off, Bluetooth, FM, AM
Bottom row of buttons are radio presets.
On the right side very bottom button on row of presets is bass boost toggle.
Back of unit: Power socket.
Thanks for reading. I do hope this was useful for some. If I am able I am also going to upload videos with stereo audio examples of the units sound recorded through a pair of in-ear Binaural Microphones. (Hoping Amazon videos are stereo not mixed to mono) The audio is very lifelike. Please listen with headphones.
I am glad to say that all of my purchase decisions were correct. This thing can get decently loud - it will fill up any house-sized room. The battery will last over 24+ hours of continuous playback. The stock sound is a little warm, but the highs come out just clear enough. I have the speaker hooked up to my computer, and with a digital EQ to balance out the low end, it sounds GREAT. Not to mention that when you do want bass, the bass boost will work pretty substantially.
Finally, the feature that I was least worried about, the microphone, turned out to be pretty decent. The microphone sensitivity knob works as intended, so with a little adjustment, you can sound pretty clear for singing. As a bonus, the microphone works great for beatboxing too, as long as you use your own windscreen or pop filter. I have busked in public with this mic/speaker combo for over 50 hours now, and it has been an absolute blast. Plosive sounds, such as the kick and the snare, really come out in the speaker, and tonal notes come out clear and resonant enough. However, other types of beatbox sounds, such as hi-hats and cymbals get covered up. For the purpose of street-style beatboxing, sticking to kick drum/snare beats and simple melodies is what I'm recommending.
Honestly I havent tried the mic yet, but it has a separate volume control.
Its big. A bit smaller than a rollerbag. Its not too heavy and I roll it where I need it. Easily connects to various devices (one at a time). Holds a charge well. Nicely made. It has a flat top to put your device on the top. It has 1 USB port, so you can charge your device from the speaker.
Very happy wth my purchase.
Top reviews from other countries
I haven't had it long enough to notice any real flaws, other than it's not entirely obvious what kind of maintenance is required to keep the Sealed Lead Acid battery in good condition, I would imagine topping it up every few months to be sufficient in keeping the battery from being damaged since SLA batteries tend to self-discharge and over discharge when left alone.
持ち運びも楽ちん。
音質も申し分無し。
ion block rocker. 100watt
today 12 hrs 9am to 9pm of mp3s and then radio. 1 bar used well on it's way to the 50 hrs they say is possible and I like it loud but understandably it cant be blasting we have neighbours..
24 hrs is all you need. solid construction.
metal volume buttons no click volume so a minor adjustment can he made easily and you need it this thing is LOUD. a metal speaker cover. I had it at maybe 4 volume CLEAR AND LOUD did not want to piss off neighbours but soooooo looking forward to a party where I can let it RIP.
Came with a solid thick 3.5 mm aux cable works fantastic as a antenna. discovered that when i tapped the radio key it remembered my station from yesterday I have not set any presets yet....even better was I did not disconnect my mp3 player from the aux port and radio was crystal clear.
have tried the bluetooth with another mp3 player ....it's dead simple and quick.
my first day I have to say very very impressed with this speaker and I dont impress easily there is always something that is missing.
weather king no aux port. battery may run all day but if night comes and you want to party on with a fire you can pretty much guarantee it will run out by midnight. not bashing but......
ION block rocker would run all night I would be confident no need to worry whatsoever. I seen reviews where battery needed to be replaced. so far ZERO worry this will be the case for my unit.
BIG THANK YOU TO..... ION we are set for a summer filled with music.

However, anything comparable in terms of output and portability easily costs 2 or 3 times as much. For it's price, this devices defends itself very well in the outdoors.
PROS:
- Handy wheels, telescoping handle and 3 carying handles ... Makes for easy lugging around despite its 20lbs weight
- Very good Bluetooth range
- Very good battery life ... Only used it for a couple weeks, we'll see how it handles in the future.
- Ability to recharge your phone with USB cord
CONS
- At max volume, I experience audio clipping ... To mitigate the effect, use an equalizer to lower the bass tones.
- Do not expect deep bass from this device at elevated volumes
NOTE
- The red "Bass Boost" annunciator is only visible in the dark
- This device does not play from a USB stick
CAPACITY
- Indoors, it will easily pleases a room with 60+ people
- Outdoors, will easily please a group of 10 people at party level volumes
- Outdoors, should be able to handle a patio with 30 people at party volumes using an equalizer to mitigate clipping.
