Understanding Bluetooth Speaker Specifications

Before diving deep into the world of Bluetooth speakers , you need to understand the jargon and how Bluetooth speakers work .

Output power and volume

You may have heard the saying, “bigger is better.” Well, that's not always true, especially when it comes to portable Bluetooth speakers. Let’s take the Jedees Mini Bluetooth Duo Speaker as an example . A bigger speaker can produce more power, but it's not always about volume. Output power, measured in watts, can affect the speaker's clarity and sound quality, especially at high volumes.

Response frequency

Frequency response is a measure of the range of sounds a speaker can produce. Generally, the wider the range, the better the ability to reproduce sound as it was intended to be heard. The sweet spot for human hearing is typically between 20 Hz and 20 kHz, so look for a speaker that can reach these values.

Bluetooth version and range

The Bluetooth version affects the range and audio quality of the speaker. Bluetooth 5.0 is the latest and offers a range of up to 800 feet in open space. Always look for a recent Bluetooth version to ensure quality sound and wider connectivity. Jedeeshop.com Bluetooth speakers come with Bluetooth version 5.0, so you can be sure you're getting the latest technology.

Battery life and charging options

The biggest drawback when comparing wireless and wired speakers is the fact that they need to be charged. You don't want your favorite song to be interrupted because the speaker's battery has decided to go on vacation. Always look for a speaker with decent battery life. Additional charging options, like USB-C or wireless charging, can be a plus.

Water and dust resistance

Who doesn't love a party on the beach or a picnic on a dusty trail? If you are an outdoor enthusiast, choosing a splash and dust resistant Bluetooth speaker is an absolute must . Look for the IP (Ingress Protection) rating: IP67 or IP68 is what you should aim for.

Consider design and portability

Don't underestimate the importance of aesthetics and portability when choosing a Bluetooth speaker.

Height and weight

The best Bluetooth speaker isn't always the biggest. If you want a portable speaker, you should consider a smaller, lighter model that you can throw in your bag without hesitation.

Build quality and durability

Let's be realistic, accidents happen. A wireless Bluetooth speaker with solid build quality can withstand a few knocks and drops. But hey, I'm not suggesting you play basketball with it!

Aesthetics and choice of materials

While sound quality is crucial, you can't ignore a speaker's appearance. After all, it will be part of your living room, your bedroom or even your backpack. Luckily, Jedeeshop.com speakers are elegantly designed, built with durable and stunning materials like bamboo.

Sound quality assessment

This is where the rubber meets the road. Ultimately, it's all about sound.

Audio drivers and speaker configuration

It's not rocket science, but the number and arrangement of drivers (the components that produce sound in a speaker) can significantly influence audio quality. A good rule of thumb? More speakers can help create a more balanced and immersive soundstage.

Passive radiators and bass performance

For those who like to feel the beat, the presence of passive radiators in a Bluetooth speaker can improve bass output. Essentially, these act as subwoofers, giving your tracks a solid bass punch.

Stereo and surround sound capabilities

If you're a movie buff or like to immerse yourself in music, consider a Bluetooth device with stereo or surround sound capabilities. Stereo sound gives a sense of direction to the sound, while surround sound takes it to another level, creating a home theater-like experience.

Additional features and connectivity

Look for speakers with extra goodies up their sleeve.

Voice assistant integration

Looking for more than just a speaker? How about a device that can tell you the weather, set reminders, and play your favorite playlist without lifting a finger? A smart speaker with a built-in voice assistant like Google Assistant can make your life a lot easier.

Multi-room and multi-speaker pairing

If you want to fill your entire house with music or amp up the outdoor party, look for a Bluetooth speaker that supports multi-room and multi-speaker pairing. This way you can link multiple speakers and enjoy synchronized music throughout your home.

Wired connection options

While wireless is the ideal solution, having a wired connection option like AUX input can be a lifesaver when your Bluetooth decides to play hide and seek. One of the best things about Bluetooth speakers from Jedeeshop.com is that many of them have these AUX inputs.

Define your budget

Ah, we're talking about money. Let's take a look at how your budget can shape your choice of Bluetooth speakers.

Price ranges and what to expect

Typically, Bluetooth speakers range from affordable models under $50 to high-end models costing $500 or more. As you move up the price ladder, you can expect better sound quality, better build, better battery life, and additional features.

Balancing features and cost

Don't blow your budget on a speaker just because it has all the features you need. The best Bluetooth speaker for you is one that balances the features you need with a price you're comfortable paying.

Warranty and customer support

The warranty is like an insurance policy for your speaker, and good customer support is like a trusted mechanic. They may not seem crucial when purchasing, but they are worth considering, especially for high-end models. Jedeeshop.com offers a two-year limited warranty on all of our products.
