Does anyone have any suggestions about a carrying pouch or protective case for this speaker? For instance, if I wanted to use it at the beach.

A pouch, probably. I usually carry mine on customer premises (think: industrial areas) and did not have any problems. Remind yourself to keep it away from dust, dirt and sand (if you are on a beach). There are no protective cases for this speaker, as far as I know.

this is an idea not experience. I would find an old camera lens case-usually for wide angle otherwise a Tupperware small plastic container would be cheap, waterproof and sand proof

I don't think so. It appears to be self contained and out of reach, much like an iPad battery. I personally wouldn't worry about it too much for a speaker at this price point.

The other problem with this Bose case is it smells very strongly of a gasoline-like smell. I had to return mine because of the smell. I bought a Lowepro Format 110 camera case. It fits the speaker with a soft cover on, and there's room to put the base, and a zipper section on the outside of the lid where you can put the charge cord. It's bigger than the Bose travel case because it's padded, but it's also better protection and has a carry strap. It's almost a perfect fit for the speaker.

There Are a number of excellent pouches out there. The best one i hzve used is from best buy on line. One from amazon leaked and killed two iPods

The outer surface seems quite durable and I'd say it could withstand some moisture but I wouldn't throw it in the water! The only "hook" would be on the cover that comes with it. I don't think dust would bother it much it hasn't mine so far. And when they delivered it they threw it over an 8' chainlink fence so it's pretty tough! But it is a speaker...and can only take so much punishment. I loved the sound though, and the fact that I can charge my gadgets with it.

I used a tooth pick and pushed the little plastic covering away from the speaker but that kinda defeats the purpose of it being waterproof lol. Besides that I just used speaker phone when I could.

You can use it normally. It's plastic but it's well built. However if you use it in extreme condition you have to protect. But If you use it normally..be care only in front part where you can find speaker. In fact speaker could be demaged. But this problem is for all amply big and small

The best thing to do with this or any bluetooth speaker and to also keep with you a small power bank. This way, you can play it all day long without running out of power and since you dont need a wall outlet, you can take it anywhere. I use my Zoom Power Bank for this and it works awesome. bPOWERED UP 6000 mAh Universal Portable External Battery Power Bank with Aluminum 3-in-1 Cord Lightening Plug, Blue

You need a Cases for your mp3 player that is waterproof, as I said Mindy, you can search the Amazon or the vendor's website for your mp3 player.

Yes, It is padded which protects the speaker if you drop it (which I've done). I usually fold the flap of the case under the speaker when I want to listen to it. It also has a flap that opens in the back for direct connect, or charging. I love this speaker, and use it all the time. If you are on the fence in your decision, I would highly recommend this speaker.

The speaker is in the back of the device and gets muffled by the case. I jam a pen behind mine to help prevent the speaker being muffled.

No, it's not equipped with a battery. It's covered with a material like speaker grill cloth. I wouldn't think many people would want to risk taking it into situations where it would get wet or dirty.We're still very happy with the sound quality, but if portability is a priority for you this may not be the best choice.

It's a great little speaker for a group up to maybe 10 people, but on the beach with that many people I think you would be really disapointed with the performance. Might try going to a Best Buy or something and listen to a more powerful bluetooth speaker, and then buy on amazon.

That's one of the problems. It's awkward to carry. I suppose you could tuck it in a backpack or large pocket. I purchased one to listen to CDs on the train and plane. For me, the bigger problem was that it just stopped working after a month. I do not recommend this technology.

The material on the outside of the case is very durable, and I think that if he case was exposed to say rain and not submerged the speaker inside will be fine. Additionally, I like the fact that I can put the Bose Mini Soundlink speaker and the charging base in the large pocket and the charging cord in the front pocket to make a very compact carrying situation that fits in my coat pocket or suitcase.

Is pretty loud and clear sound. But for the beach I would recommended to cover it with a large zip lock bag to protect it from the sand.
