Reasons why you might like the Turtlebox Gen 2

Overall Score 6.4 Represents average audio ecosystem compatibility score.

  • Ingress Protection (Ip) Rating of IP67
  • Has A Subwoofer
  • Battery Life of 25 hours

IP ratings refer to the level of protection offered by an electrical enclosure, against solids and liquids. The letters 'IP' are followed by two numerals The first number of the IP rating refers to protection against solids say dust, while the second refers to protection against liquid.

Scoring IP67, the Turtlebox Gen 2's rating is read as, the first number of 6 denotes that they are completely dust proof, and the second number of 7 means that they are protected against temporary immersion in water under set conditions, say 1 metre for 30 minutes.

We take in account a lower weight better because lighter devices are more comfortable to transport. A lower weight is also an advantage for home appliances, as it makes transportation easier, and for many other types of products. The height represents the vertical dimension of a device, Turtlebox Gen 2 has a height of 222.25mm.

This represents the horizontal dimension of a device, Turtlebox Gen 2 has a width of 304.8mm. The thickness (or depth) of Turtlebox Gen 2 is 177.8mm, to know the thickness of the speaker you divide its volume(space occupied) by the surface area( length by width) The Turtlebox Gen 2 is dustproof and water-resistant. A water-resistant device can resist the penetration of water, such as powerful water jets, if it is to be submerged in the water this is usually set to a given depth and for a specific time period.

A subwoofer is a speaker that delivers lower frequencies in the range of 20 -200Hz, the low frequencies are produced by instruments such as pipe organs, bass guitars, even the kick drums, and any explosive sound effects say in a movie. Devices that have a subwoofer inbuilt give a richer bass sound when listening to bass-heavy music like hip hop. Bigger subwoofers are capable of producing deeper bass sounds.

Turtlebox Gen 2 has a 190.5 mm subwoofer Turtlebox Gen 2 has stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience. The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the device, its size dictates the loudness of the headphone. Turtlebox Gen 2 driver unit is 63.5mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful and can produce better bass.

A speaker driver is an individual transducer that converts electrical energy to sound waves. Drivers come in different sizes and modes, but generally, you'll find three types: tweeter driver, which handles the high-frequency treble range (above 2,000 Hz), and midrange driver: which handles the midrange frequencies (200 Hz to 2,000 Hz). Woofer driver: handles the low-frequency bass range (below 200 Hz).

Based on the frequencies they handle more drivers may result in better sound quality, Turtlebox Gen 2 has 1 only. A passive radiator is a type of driver in speakers that can get extra power and resonance from a speaker system, usually used in smaller speaker systems.

This radiator is called passive because it is not powered by electricity but by air pressure found in speaker cones.

The sound vibrations produced by a passive radiator depend on its mass and the size of its enclosure. It is usually used in combination with a woofer to produce deep, resonant tones that would normally be produced by speakers in large boxes powered by AC.

The signal-to-noise ratio is a measure that compares the meaningful sound a speaker produces to the level of noise produced by internal components of that speaker, the higher the number the less perceived noise. Turtlebox Gen 2 has an audio signal level of 80 dB higher than the level of noise. The audio output power of a device is based on the number of speakers and their power in watts Turtlebox Gen 2 has 120W, this is the amount of power the speakers can be loaded with "comfortably".

A higher audio output power results in louder, clearer sounds though this is not the sole factor determining the device's loudness.

To get a better understanding of how loud any speaker can get, there are other aspects to look at such as sensitivity, sound pressure, etc. Low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio device reproduces low audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on the way through. Turtlebox Gen 2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, the lower the low-frequency response, the stronger and juicier the bass.

High frequency response measures if and how well an audio component reproduces high audible frequencies and if it changes to the signal while at it. Turtlebox Gen 2's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, the higher the high-frequency response, the clearer and crispier the treble. Your speaker's battery life will reduce over time while in use, the battery life is given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.

Turtlebox Gen 2's battery life is 25 hours It takes 2.5 hours to fully charge the Turtlebox Gen 2's battery. It is recommended to fully charge the battery before using it for the first time or when they have been unused for extended periods. Turtlebox Gen 2 has a battery level indicator, an indicator shows you when the device has a low battery.

The battery indicator lights show the charging status of your speaker. The amount of power a speaker uses depends on the loudness of the audio being played, its sensitivity, and the amplifier's volume. Operating power consumption is how much power the device consumes when it's in use.

Turtlebox Gen 2's operating power consumption is 20W Also known as a device's energy-saving mode, the power consumption in standby mode measures the amount of power the device consumes when shut down but still plugged in. Turtlebox Gen 2 has a standby mode power consumption of 0.5W Turtlebox Gen 2 can be used wirelessly, wireless devices allow users more freedom of movement. Bluetooth is a wireless technology that allows you to easily transfer data between different devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and computers.

Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data transfers between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves. Turtlebox Gen 2 has a v5 Bluetooth is a short-range wireless technology standard that is used for exchanging data between fixed and mobile devices over short distances. The Turtlebox Gen 2 can connect at a 10meters distance via Bluetooth or infrared to another device.

Turtlebox Gen 2 supports USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power on a single cable. The USB-C plug is now part and parcel of most current laptops, phones, and tablets, it features reversible plug orientation and cable direction. A microphone port allows for connecting external high-end or specialized microphones that are better than those in-built into the device if any.

There is a control panel on the Turtlebox Gen 2 body, so you can easily access the volume control or remote without having to interact with a cable or another device it's connected to.
