soundcore Boom 2 Plus Delivers Party Power
Thinking of blasting tunes poolside or livening up your next camping trip? The soundcore Boom 2 Plus wants to be your portable party partner. But is it all about the bass, or can it hit all the right notes?
The sound
This speaker gets LOUD, easily filling a backyard or park with your favourite music. Want to push the bass even further? BassUp™️ 2.0 lets you fine-tune the EQ and crank up the output for a maximum impact of 140 watts. Dual 50W subwoofers and dual 20W tweeters are under the hood, providing the powerful sound in 2.1 stereo.
Bass lovers, look no further! The Boom 2 Plus brings the boom with deep, thumping bass that’ll get your heart thumping too. It’s perfect for genres like hip-hop and EDM, making you feel the music as much as hear it. There’s even a BassUp button for those who crave earth-shaking intensity.
Its built-in EQ lets you customise the audio to match your mood, whether you want to feel the bass thump or dial up the detail. Plus, PartyCast 2.0 lets you wirelessly connect over 100 speakers for an unforgettable sonic experience.
The Boom 2 Plus delivers the promised powerful sound of its name and also gives audiophiles seeking crystal-clear mids and highs. The focus on bass can be dialled up or down with the app, providing full control depending on the music. The stereo performance is one only area with room for improvement, this is largely down to drivers being physically so close together and a natural lack if impact in that stereo sound. Other than that, the sound is powerful, refined and is extremely impressive for this price point.
The build
No worries about poolside splashes or spilled drinks with the Boom 2 Plus 2 IPX7 waterproof rating. It can handle dunks for up to 30 minutes giving you a welcomed reassurance your tech investment will be safe in all weathers. Plus, built-in lights add a touch of party atmosphere wherever you bring the tunes.
Forget being gentle. The Boom 2 Plus rugged design can take the bumps and bruises of outdoor adventures. It’s shockproof and comes with a handy strap for easy carrying. Plus, the battery life is no slouch, lasting up to 24 hours on a single charge. This is the manufacturers claim that we’ve not fully tested this ourselves!
Get back to the music fast with the Boom 2 Plus’s 30W fast charging. A quick 3-hour charge using a 30W charger keeps the party going for up to 20 hours. Need to top up your phone or other devices? The built-in 10W power bank provides convenient on-the-go charging to keep your devices powered up wherever you are.
This speaker boasts cutting-edge Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity for a reliable connection. It supports both AAC and SBC codecs, ensuring high-quality audio. Plus, Google Fast Pair makes pairing a breeze, and multipoint pairing lets you connect to two devices at once.
The verdict
The soundcore Boom 2 Plus is a fantastic choice for those who prioritise volume and big bass, a party atmosphere, and durability. It’s perfect for pool parties, barbecues, or just bringing the jams wherever you roam. The ideal Summer speaker. Compared to previous models and thanks to more tech under the hood, the clarity of sound is a leap forward and makes this a pretty compelling offer!
