BPA10 10" 400W Peak Powered PA DJ Speaker with Bluetooth, USB/SD Player, FM Radio, XLR/RCA/1/4"/Aux Inputs, Remote, Flyable & Stand Mount - for DJs, Musicians, Events

I've tried a few of these portable AC-powered portable PA/monitor/music speakers with built-in amplifiers and near as I can tell, this is the best one in it's price-range/class. QUALITY: Right out of the box it looks nice. There's something about the fit & finish, and the layout of the controls, the design of the enclosure, even the packaging that communicates good quality. Everything is crisp. The lettering, the definition of the angles of the enclosure, everything is nice and clean and feels high quality. LOOKS: The front of the speaker has a very nice, back-illuminated logo. ENCLOSURE: The speaker has a handle built-into the design of the enclosure on the top to carry the speaker by, but the speaker vents on the sides (or top & bottom if using the speaker horizontally) are also handles. Horizontally is how I will primarily be orienting the speaker, and when set on a flat surface the speaker's face is angled up slightly, the same angle as a floor monitor. Perfect. The control panel, which is on the rear of the speaker, is well laid out. The speaker is fairly heavy. I attribute this to good quality internals, big magnets on the speakers, lots of heavy capacitors, etc., rather than the manufacturer just adding weight-plates to make it feel heavy & substantial. SOUND & POWER: The sound is average, typical for speakers of this type. It includes bass & treble controls, along with the standard volume and pre-amp gain controls, and they work quite well. The manufacturer advertises 100 watts RMS. I think that figure is optimistic. During testing the most I could get it to pull at peak was about 70 watts. That translates to somewhere near 35 watts of output. There is an LED indicator on the control panel on the rear which illuminates if the amplifier detects clipping (distortion caused by overloading the amplifier components). It never lit while I was using it. My power figure estimate is based on this being a class AB amp (why they didn't go with a class D I can only guess) and average Class AB amp efficiency is ~ 50%. The manufacturer claims 102db @ 1watt/1meter. That is a pretty efficient rating (it's a rating of the speaker, not the amplifier). I was able to get the speaker to put abut 110db @ 1w/1m. Maybe it could do more with the right audio source CONCLUSION: This speaker is much better, I figure twice as good, as the similar speaker from it's nearest rival, a firm whose name rhymes with mile. For the money it seems like quite a piece of hardware. When you consider the cost of portable Bluetooth speakers (this speaker supports Bluetooth, SD card, RCA line in, 3.5mm line in, USB, XLR, & 1/4" inputs. It even has an FM radio.), this is a lot of speaker with a lot of capabilities. Considering it has a 10" woofer with separate tweeter and the various functions (albeit without battery power), this is quite a lot of hardware for the money. This speaker comes with a remote control and supports XLR line-level output. Good looks, good quality, good performance, good sound, good feature set, and easy to use, this speaker is a smart choice.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: Great speaker with tons of input options! Sonically, this speaker sounds great on the high, mid, and low end. Packs a lot of punch and doesn’t disappoint! For a budget speaker, it presents itself with a large sound that’s clean and plenty powerful. With a built in equalizer, you can tone it to your desired sound. It also has a clipping indicator so you can adjust it, making sure to not damage the speaker. With a background in music, both studio recording and live performances, this is a well built, durable speaker that’s loud, powerful, and will perform well in a medium sized venue by itself.

From the moment I turned this Speaker on, I could tell the difference. Crisp highs, balanced mids, and powerful bass that fills the room. and the design is sleek and modern. Great value for the price. Definitely recommended 👌

They’re pretty loud for 100 RMS 10” speakers, but sound okay. Factory must not have burned them in because mine smelled like burning electronics and plastic for a bit at first even without hitting the clipping indicator. Box resonates mid bass and vocals a bit, can feel the whole enclosure vibrate and flex. It also has a fair bit of rear projection wash sound so wouldn’t be ideal if you need directionality. Sub bass of course is lacking, I run mine with a 15 sub but wanted to test it alone and see if it would fail. Knobs also seem sort of weak. Very little self noise when powered up, happy to use in my studio if needed. Sounds good with a powered 15” sub after a bit of EQ and throws a lot farther than I thought it would. The power cord is stupidly short. Sides too curved to use reliably as floor wedge monitor but seems like it could maybe keep up with a combo guitar amp and a drum kit. Running to clipping for a while the plate doesn’t get as hot as my car trunk amp also by Rockville that’s been abused for a few years and still holds fine. Also whoever tuned the bass ports on these did a pretty good job, the cone excursion is really well controlled even when running full range and not highpassed for a sub. Edit 2: after a couple months of abuse still sounds fine. Ran it in the hot sun for a weekend party pulsing the clipping meter steadily, and despite getting wickedly hot it’s been fine and even kicked around. I don’t have an SPL meter but at full volume it’s way too loud to approach with your ears open and it hasn’t begun distorting too badly yet. Also I like that unlike my Samson monitor, the Bluetooth doesn’t turn on by default when you power it on. It benefits from a maximizer like the BBE Sonic Maximizer which clears up the sound at full volume nicely and doesn’t need much EQ that way.

Works quite well. Got two for rehearsal space and they are way more than we need with a full rock band. Very loud and can hook up phone through Bluetooth to play along. Perfect, needing nothing

I got this to listen to music in the shop and I was super impressed. The volume goes up super high and still sounds great. The guys at work are excited whenever I bring it out. It's pretty tough and doesn't break when it gets knocked over, I love this speaker

Sound is loud and crisp with the option to adjust the EQ’s for treble and bass on the back. You also have several different connection options, you can use either Bluetooth, RCA, auxiliary, 1/4 inch or XLR cables for line in and it has an output XLR to connect another speaker. Overall I’m happy with my purchase, it’s made in the U.S(New York), and it’s the best price you’ll find for a speaker at this level of quality. Highly recommend if you just can’t afford spending $500+ to upgrade your sound.

This is a brilliant speaker. It’s easy to use, sounds great and I’m able to connect a mic and have music playing through Bluetooth at the same time. The price and quality is unbeatable. Highly recommended.

All the functionalities at a low price is a steal. The treble and bass adjustment is one effective add-on, a lot of expensive active PA don't have it. Blue tooth, FM radio, RCA works perfect. Will buy one again soon A++

This is a great speaker for the money! Loud enough with a decent bass specially at higher volumes... Bluetooth works great, the remote is weak, you have to be a front of the speaker and no further than 10 feet to work... Maybe it has a weak battery, I will know when I replace. Plenty of "lines in" to connect with almost anything... also a useful line out XLR to connect to a sub if you wish... Great for the backyard and small gatherings, wouldn't disappoint you! The only negative, the "Rockville " logo at the front, was glued on straight! Minor detail but still... Overall, happy with that purchase...

Très polyvalent.Puissance incroyable.Qualite sonore impressionnante.
