ABRAMTEK E500 (2nd Gen) Bluetooth Speaker Review
The ABRAMTEK E500 (2nd Gen) Bluetooth Speaker is a high-powered wireless portable speaker that delivers pure, uncompromised sound and absolute clarity in every detail. With a durable design and stylish modern appearance, this speaker is perfect for home, office, back yard, party, or outdoor activities. The DPAC Super Bass System, incorporating patented DPAC technology, delivers mind-blowing bass sound that matches or surpasses the conventional subwoofer. The innovative driver configuration, combined with air pressure, delivers a full-range sound with deep low-end frequencies and astonishing clarity of sound in an ultra-compact size.
The Enhanced 360° Surround Sound is one of the world’s first “enhanced degree” patented 3D-effect portable Hi-Fi speakers. Unlike conventional 360° sound, the Enhanced 360° Optimized Sound flows not only left to right but top to bottom. This creates an omnidirectional spread with wide, directional waves that circulate throughout the room, giving the authentic impression of a multi-speaker environment from a single speaker. The built-in professional EQ Graphic Equalizer allows you to fine-tune your music even further, adding more bass, mid-range, or treble to get exactly the sound you want. The state-of-the-art DSP technology creates a more dynamic sound that brings your music, movies, and games to life.
The high capacity rechargeable battery lasts more than 4.5 hours playtime on a single full charge. With integration of exclusive 360 degree technology, this portable wireless speaker combines outstanding space-filling, high-fidelity sound with a compact form factor that can go anywhere. The ABRAMTEK E500 (2nd Gen) Bluetooth Speaker also features TWS function (True Wireless Stereo) that allows you to connect 2 of E500 speakers wirelessly to achieve the true left and right channel stereo sound.

FAQ
Product FAQ:
Q: How durable is this speaker?
A: The ABRAMTEK E500 (2nd Gen) Bluetooth Speaker is very durable, but it is a little big to be moved often.
Q: Can this unit play while being charged?
A: Yes, it can play while being charged. If it is plugged in and being charged, it is powered.
Q: Is it waterproof?
A: No, the ABRAMTEK E500 (2nd Gen) Bluetooth Speaker is not waterproof. However, the bass on this speaker is powerful.
Q: Pairing issues on gen2 e500 to iPhone and iPad it won’t pair anyone having issues also?
A: Even with the generation one speaker, sometimes there may be trouble pairing automatically. It is suggested to manually pair it. If it doesn’t pair, remove the device from the phone and start pairing over again. It may pair easier if the phone's Bluetooth is turned on first.
Q: From how many Herzs to how many KiloHerzs is the range?
A: This is only an estimate, but going by size of the driver and enclosure, with the DSP technology, it would be around 50-60 Hz +-6db in a small to medium size room. As for the high end, it is possible that it goes up to 20k Hz.
Q: Volume going up and down while playing.
A: If there are any problems with volume control, please clarify what kind of problem you are experiencing.
Q: Hello! Is there an option for me to connect my wireless microphones to use for karaoke? Maybe an aux connection?
A: Yes, there is an aux connection available for you to connect your wireless microphones for karaoke.
Q: Can you connect a Bluetooth mic to this system?
A: No, you cannot connect a Bluetooth mic as the speaker is a receiver, and a wireless mic uses a transmitter.
Q: What is the frequency response?
A: Judging by the size of components and the lack of admission, it is estimated to be around 65-12+-8db, which is typical for Bluetooth speakers. The downward design is meant to cause floor boom, which would make the bass feel more palpable at the cost of realism and fidelity.
