I bought this speaker and the W-King X10 within a few weeks of each other, and I reviewed them both to evaluate which one I'd use for the house (screened-in lanai) and which I'd mount on my eBike (to replace the speaker I had that died). This review will cover them both. I should also note that I set the EQ on my Galaxy phone to the "rock" setting.The first test was to see how much power the speakers had, a full volume evaluation on our 38'x20' screened-in lanai, so they would need to cover a fairly large outdoor room. First, I fired up the W-King X10 and turned it up all the way. Each equalizer mode (indoor and outdoor) had really deep bass that sounded good, but the outdoor mode (solid blue indicator) has better mid and treble outdoors (my primary use), so I left it on that. And Wow, does this speaker rock. It has incredible sound in that large space, with phenomenal bass, deep with a lot of punch, and the midrange and treble are also crisp. My other 2 current portable speakers (I have had and tested over a dozen in the last 10 years searching for the perfect one) are 40 watts, and I really noticed the difference with this one being 70, it has so much more punch to it. The battery life is really good, and despite its size (this is 1.5 to 2X as large as my other 2), the design really is portable (better, to me, than the other models with the built-in handle). I bought the short handle, as I will never sling this over my shoulder, and it carries around easy enough.The Zealot S-67 is rated at 75 watts (so, around the same as the W-King) and also has an incredibly powerful battery. I've used it for a while without recharging, and it still keeps on going. At full volume, it has a real punch to it. I tested all 3 EQ modes, finding that the subwoofer mode had strong bass punch, but at full volume, sounded muddy (too strong), and had very diminished mid and treble. The vocal mode had strong mid and treble (too strong) and diminished bass. The normal setting turned out to be "just right", with good bass and mid/treble, not getting muddy or too screechy at full volume. This one also filled the room. And again, there was no comparison between the power of this and my 40 watt smaller ones, this just blew them away.So, how to compare the two? First, off, if it matters, the W-King is around $35 more than the Zealot, but for the outdoor room setting of the lanai, I much prefer the W-King X10, as its bass (in the outdoor EQ setting) is punchy and clear at full volume and the mid and treble sounded great and clear as well, where the Zealot S-67 had less bass at full volume (with normal EQ to avoid muddy sound) with very crisp and clear mid and treble, even more so than the W-King. Since the Zealot had such clear mid and treble and still decent bass, it works perfectly on the eBike, where riding at 20-30mph results in a lot of road noise that kills mid and treble, so the enhanced mid and treble of the Zealot really works well. If the price difference matters that much, the Zealot is a good choice and still does quite well.So, each speaker is a great speaker in its own respect, and each fits perfectly into a specific niche where I need it. I had this speaker on a price watch (which I recommend if you have the time to wait), as it semi-regularly goes on a lightning deal, so I ended up getting this for $16 less than the normal price.

I don’t leave reviews often, but felt like I should with this purchase. I’ve owned JBL, Bose, HK, etc. speakers. For the price, this speaker can’t be touched. I’m sure there will be some sonic savant that might disagree. But for me, this speaker has been the best sound I’ve received from any Bluetooth speaker I’ve owned. A little big for a golf cart, but still amazing! Don’t hesitate to buy!

good, just too big for my needs

El parlante suena bien, Pero esperaba que sonara mejor...

Good

Very nice, very loud, l love it.

Great sound quality even at max volume. The radio on my motorcycle quit working so as a quick fix, I put one of these on the handlebars and one on the rear trunk rack. Almost obscenely loud with them paired. Very happy.

I am in search of a nice sounding bluetooth speaker for $100 or less that I can fit in a suitcase, has a power bank function, and an aux input with zero delay. The W-King X10 pictured here is a bit larger than I was hoping for (I got it on sale for $80). This item was just about the right size so I was really hoping I would like it. Unfortunately, its performance was lacking.The phone volume control is tied to the speaker volume control. The volume levels on the quiet end of the spectrum leave a lot to be desired. It goes from silent, to quiet, to loud, making it impossible to find a good listening volume for my use cases. Their tech support says the speaker is designed to go loud, so that is why I experience what I do on the quiet end. Other reviewers have complained about this same thing. I had hoped they were just doing it wrong, but they were right. Ultimately this is what caused me to return it.That volume issue aside, I was also unhappy with the EQ of this speaker. It seemed a little bright with mids and highs too loud, as did the W-King X10 pictured next to it. Using a phone app EQ I was able to get this speaker to sound pretty good. It even hit lower than the W-King X10. Unfortunately, when using the EQ it was really easy to overdrive these drivers causing fluttering, but this is not necessarily a negative. It means you have overhead to tune as you'd like. However, the lack of low volume control made it difficult to find an EQ setup that sounded good at all volumes, or should I say, the 2 usable volume levels.As I said, I ended up returning this and I continue my search.The W-King X10 may be going back due to its size and less that great sound quality. I've already returned a Phillips S7807 for not having an aux input (my bad for not verifying). It looks like the Tribit XSound Mega, which sounds surprisingly good for its size, is likely going back as well due to the aux input having an unacceptable delay for one of my use cases. I have 5 more speakers on the way. Hopefully one of them will be a clear winner.
