SuperTooth Disco bluetooth wireless stereo

SuperToothDiscobluetoothwirelessstereo It�s the bluetooth soundbar on steroids. Throw out the idea of being pocket sized and instead envision a bluetooth wireless stereo as being a foot long and a few inches tall, and you�ve got the SuperTooth Disco. The idea of being this large is that it can crank out some powerful audio, or twenty-eight watts, as the company likes to point out. The Disco is still portable in terms of running on a built in battery and being able to be picked up and carried around, and while I�m not sure I�d travel with something this large, it�s a fun product for around the house or toting to a party.

The idea behind the bluetooth for a product like this is that you don�t need a cable to pair it up with your computer, phone, or tablet. It can serve as a replacement for your computer speakers, or if you really want to take advantage of its wireless functionality, imagine lying in bed using your iPad for reading or gaming while your iPad�s music is playing wirelessly out of the Disco on your nightstand.

The catch with this product is that because it�s as big as it is, it doesn�t have that same uniquely valuable travel aspect as some of its smaller bluetooth counterparts. Instead, the Disco must be compared to wired products of its own size, and that�s where it starts to feel expensive. iPhone users can find dockable stereos at this size and price range which sound better, so you really have to take advantage of the wireless functionality in order to get your money�s worth. Ultimately, the audio quality here scores very high on the �powerful� side but only adequately on the �pristine� scale.

On the plus side, the on-board controls are a nice touch, including previous, next, an play-pause buttons which save you from having to reach for your device, which may well be in your pocket considering the wireless connection. And the tactile volume knob is a fun retro touch as well.
