Buy once cry once. Turtlebox Gen 2 is the best.

 

[rovster]

I got mine maybe 8 months before the new gen came out and even the old ones are awesome. I bought it because of the reviews on this site and you guys never disappoint. I am literally listening to it now at my sons flag football practice. This thing follows us everywhere.

Lots of dudes rave about the TurtleBox. I like silence but that’s just me.

Thanks for the tip Smack. I agree - silence is golden. Better quality sound is more important to me than LOUD. I don't want to be THAT GUY who cares less about infringing on everyone else's peaceful enjoyment. However, Willie Nelson's Stardust album at low volume around Sunset on the water, with my wife and a few friends and maybe an adult beverage, is livin' the good life.

I had one of those JBL waterproof ones that are cylinder shaped and they were good but can not hear on plane. I got the turtlebox about a month ago and it is excellent, very loud, has rubber feet on bottom and on its back so you can lay it down in the cockpit or for non fishing days I cam strap it to the casting platform facing us and it is easy to hear on plane.

The larger JBL works OK but the Turtlebox is a step above

If you want to hear your music on plane everyone for two miles will be able to hear it too. Get some ear buds and you’ll be set.

I am definitely a silence guy myself, but I have some JBL Audio Flip speakers that I bought on deployment. They pack a punch for size, are affordable, are IPX7 waterproof, have a long battery life, and they also have a feature where if you have multiple, you can daisy chain them to be playing the same things in unison without delay (think of like a cookout or party or whatever). Pretty solid all in all. https://www.amazon.com/JBL-Waterpro...eaker/dp/B07QK3LK56/ref=sr_1_omk_4?keywords=jbl+flip&qid=1650738161&sr=8-4&th=1 There are multiple sizes, versions, or colors.

TurtleBox! I have two of them--don't use them on the skiff, just because...but for patio sitting and bourbon sipping, they can't be beat!

 

[paint it black]

Turtlebox, for sure.
I have two of them. One for the skiff, the other for everything else. Even paired both of them together to play music at my son's 1st birthday party and was crazy loud.

Listening to a podcast on my turtle box as I’m wrapping rods right now. Very durable, the battery lasts and it’s plenty loud to hear while running as long as it’s pointed at you. I either have it in my front bulkhead or under the console.

 

[TailHunter13]

Turtle box for sure

 

[jmrodandgun]

I have a first gen turtlebox. It's alright for what it is. Seems like you could make something for quite a bit less than turtle box wants for that little chinese import. I had to open mine up, it's just a laptop battery powering the thing.

 

[Omar]

I have a demer box which has been great for beach/pool etc. very loud and good sound. Can also keep wallet, keys & phone in a dry and safe place.

 

[JaxFishingAdventures]

If you have a poling platform, you could mount a Wet sounds sound bar under it.

I'm assuming those are surface mount, wireless speakers? Inside of cooler is unchanged?

Yes no change inside cooler, spacers allow for it.
