What I like: very lightweight and sturdy, good control of the sound through onboard tone controls, combo jacks. I bought two along with a Mackie mixer for a low-volume Americana combo. That was years ago and I still use them. BUT....
What I don't like at all: The speaker distorts when set at more than half its volume range -- an ugly distortion. In its useable range it's still loud enough for an outdoors show for 50 people, with a trio of electric guitar and mic'd percussion plus vocals, but you are quite limited instead of liberated by the gear. I hoped the problem would go away when the speakers broke in, and I was wrong. If I had it to do over, I would buy better branded speakers, despite the fact that the better ones weigh more.
Update: after years of trying to work with these speakers, I opened one up yesterday to chase down the rattle. I found several loose screws (poor quality control), tightened them and removed a couple that bizarrely served no function. Ran the speaker with the cab open, and realized the problem came from the woofer. It's really garbage -- small magnet, WAY too small for the power rating. It could not handle the line out signals from my amps without distorting in an ugly way. I put in a quality 8OHM woofer I had lying around, and it transformed the device: more power, clarity and tone. I'll replace the woofer on the other one too. If you go this path, be careful to install a woofer with a relatively low profile, because there's not much room in there. I reaffirm: The better path would be to buy a brand that doesn't require surgery in the first place. The replacement was not complicated, but it was certainly tedious.

The bass is a very big problem for this speaker... You can use it as a monitor or just for garden parties like I did.
What I liked the most was that it has a lot of functions: Bluetooth, sd card slot, USB etc.

The destination of these speakers would be the sound of mornings in schools, outdoor meetings, parties, karaoke. Having an input for microphone, bluetooth 5.0, aux / line in, mp3 player but also another output for a passive speaker (example 110P) makes it a very good choice, especially at this price! Enjoy the presence of several presets for aqualizer and separate adjustment for treble / bass, but still, it would be necessary to adjust for the midrange.

Great solution for home use

I use this to jam with the band. We run the vox and the drum machine through a mixing desk into this. I have also used it to try out vox ontop of mp3s from other bands. For this it is great as you can plug in an SD card and it has an internal MP3 player that works well. Guess it could be good for kareoke also. It has a remove also but generally I just set it and run. It presents nice clear defined sound and the tone controls are useable. The only time it fails is when you bang heavy bass through it the bass speaker cannot handle a real heavy boom but if you back off a bit on the bass it works. You do get bass but not rib cage shaking bass.
For the price it does a great job.
