For its size (about 8" wide and 1.3 lb), it puts out impressively full sound, gets plenty loud, and still keeps vocals and instruments clear. desertcart The XBass button is the secret sauce: when you want extra punch for pop/hip-hop or to fill a room, it adds satisfying low end without turning everything to mud. It also has an Audiobook EQ mode, which makes spoken-word and podcasts easier to follow. desertcart +1 Battery life has been excellent for day-to-day use, and the up to 20-hour rating feels realistic depending on volume. I also love the IPX7 waterproof build, this is the kind of speaker you can confidently bring near water, and the convenience of USB-C charging. desertcart +1 A bonus: you can pair two via TWS for a wider, more immersive stereo/surround-like setup, which is awesome for small gatherings. desertcart Pros: Loud, clear sound for the size; punchy bass with XBass; IPX7 waterproof; long battery; USB-C; TWS pairing. desertcart +1 Cons: If you crank XBass in a small room it can be a bit much (easy fix: turn it off). Overall, it feels like a speaker that punches above its price class, compact, rugged, and genuinely enjoyable to listen to. Review: I Never Know What to Expect........ - I never know what to expect when purchasing a sound device because I have hearing problems (highs are gone). I've learned to accept what I get most of the time. Before this purchase I was using a Philips 2 speaker bluetooth portable speaker which was giving me somewhat acceptable sound but lacking in definition. The reason for replacing it was because it was no longer reliable, having some power problems. I decided on the Tribit MaxSound Plus mainly because of the reviews. After all, I can't hear it through desertcart. I've had it now for just over 2 weeks and I'm loving it. I thought I would never use the Xbass but I actually leave it on all the time. It seems to give it the fullness it needs without overwhelming you with heavy bass. Super surprised and pleased!! The unit powers up and connects via bluetooth rather quickly. The bonus is that it actually does give you a 100 foot range (or more) on the bluetooth which was another surprise. This unit doesn't let things like walls or even buildings get in the way of reception. My Philips wasn't much distance at all and sometimes cut out if I just moved around. So, for the sound itself and the bluetooth range, I love it so far. But, there's always something I don't like so here it is........ My Philips was about the same length but, it was thinner and lighter. I could slide it into my back pocket for example. No way in heck you can do that with the Tribit. It's HEAVY and kind of a round/triangle shape. No way to slide it into my pocket, any pocket (except a coat maybe). Also, the controls on top are almost invisible. The volume control on the Philips was easily turned up or down with a knob. The Tribit has a "control panel" on top that is like "embossed" so you can "feel" it I guess. You can hardly even see the controls because they are the same color as speaker enclosure. I'm turning it up and down frequently as well as pausing/changing songs and if I can't see what I want easily, it's no fun at all. I'm trying to learn the "feel" so I won't have a problem. BUT, if you want to turn it down quick, you're out of luck. Finding and pressing the + or - to increase or decrease the volume is not a good thing. Like my Philips, it too needs a knob of some kind. If nothing else, IT NEEDS A KNOB for volume only. The rest doesn't matter. I suppose the reason it's SO heavy is because of the great battery power. I have no idea how long it lasts (they claim it's 20 hours) but, I haven't run out of power yet between uses. One thing that doesn't matter to me so much but, it might bother others, is the fact that there is a LAG on the bluetooth like most products. Of course, you won't notice unless you are using it for videos. Also, I've had trouble skipping to the next song, or worse, the one after that. I end up changing it on my phone instead. I feel sure it's mostly me but still, not good. One last note.... A few times my song would speed up or something and sound weird but, not sure what that's all about. My phone or the Tribit??? Who knows. Maybe I can elaborate later. It's only been 2 wks so I'll update if the whole thing turns south but, for now, I believe it's a KEEPER mainly because it sounds so good to me!!!!!! Remember, I have hearing problems. Manufacturer.....Please put a volume knob on it and it will be almost perfect!!!! ## Features - Sound that Satisfies: MaxSound's audio experience is one that appeals to casual listeners and audiophiles alike. The advanced audio processing tech, larger drivers, and more powerful amplifier modules results in a fully articulate sound at all volumes. - Bass that Booms: Small speakers usually give small sound. That's not the case with Tribit's proprietary XBass technology. At the press of the button, the bass is amplified to give those low-end bass lines depth and synth and acoustic drums tight punch. - Seriously Waterproof: Portability is incomplete without the ability to weather the elements. With IPX7 waterproof, MaxSound Plus gives you the confidence to enjoy your music even in the most humid or wettest of conditions. - Extended Playtime: Don't let a long daytrip stop you from bringing a soundtrack - with up to 20 hours of battery life, you can have the playlist going all day. Enjoy great music with the freedom of portability without the fuss of entangled power cords. - Pair and Play: Move freely around with your smart phone, without worrying about dropping your music. MaxSound Plus wireless speaker offers an incredibly robust, secure connection and lossless wireless sound at a range of up to 100 feet. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07MQWG3PR | | Additional Features | ['Usb Port, Bass Boost, Waterproof', 'USB Port'] or Boost', 'Waterproof'] | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Antenna Location | For Outdoor Use, For Partying, For Surround Sound Systems, For Indoor Use | | Audio Driver Size | 45 millimeters | | Audio Driver Type | Dynamic Driver | | Audio Output Mode | Stereo | | Battery Average Life | 20 hours | | Battery Capacity | 2200 milliamp_hours | | Battery Charge Time | 20 hours | | Best Sellers Rank | #167,866 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #3,280 in Portable Bluetooth Speakers | | Bluetooth Range | 30 meters | | Brand | Tribit | | Built-In Media | bluetooth speaker | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Computer | | Compatible with Vehicle Type | Boat, Car, Motorcycle, Tractor | | Connectivity Protocol | Bluetooth | | Connectivity Technology | Bluetooth | | Control Method | Touch | | Controller Type | Battery Powered | | Customer Package Type | Standard Packaging | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 12,840 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Waterproof material or coating | | Frequency Response | 20 KHz | | Global Trade Identification Number | 06972099691008 | | Input Voltage | 7.4 volts_of_direct_current | | Is Waterproof | True | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 2.76"D x 7.83"W x 2.63"H | | Item Weight | 1.3 pounds | | Manufacturer | Tribit | | Maximum Range | 30 meters | | Model Name | MaxSound Plus | | Model Number | BTS25 | | Mounting Type | Freestanding | | Number of Audio Channels | 2 | | Number of Batteries | 1 Lithium Ion batteries required.

The Xsoundgo is the more amazing speaker, considering its size. It's just amazing to have such great sound out of such a small speaker. On the other Maxsound is more powerful and bassier, it is better in that way. If you are using the speaker mostly at home or in the backyard, get the maxsound. If you are a frequent traveller and want something to take carryon, get the Xsound. **Q: How does this differ from the SoundGo speaker? Is the sound quality better,** A: The DOSS SoundGo is a comparable product. I own both and they are both limited on the top end. Mid range sound quality is fine. No crisp highs or booming lows... But it fills a bedroom space quite well. The SoundGo steuggles to "fill" a space with sound. Its definitely more a of a directional, but really sleek unit. Trade offs i suppose! Lol! But overall sound quality is better from the Tribit. **Q: Does this come with a charger?** A: Mine didn't come with a charger. Although I was on their website yesterday and noticed they were selling the next model up for 4.00 less than this model - I'd jump all over that! Good luck✌ **Q: Is this much better then the 12v** A: maybe you mean the x go ? I don't have the x go ,but from the reviews I Have read this is an improved bigger better sounding unit, I think its well made and sounds great, I have a aomais life, doss soundbox xl , oontz angle 3 , and I like them all ,but this has become my favorite.

Remember, I have hearing problems. Manufacturer.....Please put a volume knob on it and it will be almost perfect!!!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Overall the best out of the 3 Tribit speakers I tested *by R***M on August 6, 2020* I purchased all 3 Tribit products, StormBox Micro, Stormbox and Maxsound Plus for my own personal self-testing. I wanted to see if all the good review were true. In comparison to the other two lower models, this speaker has a good overall sound. From the Bass to Mids it sounds great and loud. Like the other models the sound comes off very clean, no static sound what so over or extra noise coming off the speaker grill. I played all different types of music racing from classical, instrumental, pop, hip-hop, rap, bass and rock. Songs played: * Dinah Jane - Bottled Up β€’ Ed Sheeran (Camila Cabello & Cardi B) - South of the Border β€’ Maroon 5 - Memories β€’ Conkarah - Banana * George Winston - Variations on the Canon β€’ Hilary Stagg - Easy Days β€’ Guns n ' Roses - Sweet child of mine β€’ Yiruma - River flows in you β€’ Post Malone - Wow β€’ Beyonce - Love on top β€’ Cardi B - Bodak Yellow β€’ Matisyahu - One Day β€’ Lil Wayne - How to love β€’ Notorious BIG - Hypnotize β€’ Lil Waye - A Milli β€’ Brennan Savage - To the Moon I didn't play it at 100% but at 75% it still sound clean and the speakers didn't sound like it was gonna pop. It plays the classical/instrumental songs as if it were a Bose speaker. This is not a surround sound movie theater speaker, but it does give off more of the sound than other models. I'm pretty sure if you get two MaxSound plus speakers it would sound like you had surround sound. I'd love to test two of these paired up. I thought I could pair up any other Tribit bluetooth speaker, but that didn't work. After several attempts It didn't pair up to the StormBox or Stormbox Micros. Another thing about the bluetooth is that I was able to control the song being played on the MaxSound Plus through the StormBox Speaker and the StormBox Micro. When I pressed the circle on the Stormbox or the square on the Stormbox Micro twice, whatever song is up next in the que started playing. When I press those buttons once the current song would be played on the speaker which I just pressed the button on. That feature I thought was neat. Sometimes also, when I play songs on the MaxSound Plus it would automatically switch other to the Micro on its own. That's why I gave it a 4 instead of 5. One thing that I did find kind of annoying while testing the speakers is that I would sometimes start the songs on the MaxSound Plus and seconds later the music would jump on its own to the micro. This happened more than twice. I know that the unit you play your Tribit speakers on remembers the last connections. But I tried having the Stormbox as the last speaker being played as well and it also randomly happened to play from the MaxSound plus to the Stormbox Micro. Please fix this issue. This product has some weight to it and is not light at all so I'd hate to drop it. When held in your hand the material is not slippery and you feel like you have a grip. Some speakers and headphones out there have this same mat finish and after a few year or when you don't use it it gets all sticky and starts to fall apart. I hope that this does not happen to the Tribit speakers. It has a lanyard that you can hold on to or latch it on to something like a back back. I'd probably take an S-Caribner with a bungee and put that in place of what is being used now if I were to hang it on to something like a backpack or bag. Battery seems to be good on the MaxSound Plus. It has an auto shut off feature if it hasn't been playing any sounds. This is also for the case for the Stormbox and Stormbox Micro. The Stormbox frequently turns itself off and I have to keep pairing it with the iPad or iPhone which is annoying. After about 20 minutes of not playing anything the MaxSound Plus is still synced while this StormBox Micro is still playing songs. The MaxSound Plus shuts off around 30 minutes of not being used. For the price this is a great speaker. I will have to update my review, if I get a second pair and try to pair the two same speakers. The Stormbox and Stormbox mini says you can pair two of the same speakers β€œParty Mode”, but I didn’t see that int he manual. Also this came with an audio cable for those that do not have bluetooth capability. I would most likely keep this, the MaxSound Plus or the StormBox Micro since I experienced bluetooth and power issues with the StormBox. The MaxSound is good for an all day outing even overnight trip. 20 hours of play is awesome! ## Frequently Bought Together - Tribit MaxSound Plus Portable Bluetooth Speaker with 24W Louder Sound, Exceptional XBass, 20H Playtime, IPX7 Waterproof, USB-C, TWS for Party, Outdoor - Tribit StormBox Blast Portable Speaker: 90W Loud Stereo Sound with XBass, IPX7 Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker with LED Light, Bluetooth 5.3&TWS, Custom EQ, 30H Playtime for Outdoor - Tribit XSound Go Bluetooth Speaker with 16W Loud Sound & Deeper Bass, 24H Playtime, IPX7 Waterproof, Bluetooth 5.3 TWS Pairing Portable Wireless Speaker for Home, Outdoor (2024 Upgraded) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/100631164-tribit-maxsound-plus-portable-bluetooth-speaker-with-24w-louder-sound](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/100631164-tribit-maxsound-plus-portable-bluetooth-speaker-with-24w-louder-sound) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-09-12*
