Is it louder than the Bose Soundlink Mini?

I don't know much about the Mini, but the Sony is bigger and it does go very loud. My only complaint about the Sony is that it is not as crisp sounding as I would like. I prefer high treble and this doesn't seem to have it. It has nice surround sound and good bass, but the treble could use some work. I guess it would also depend on what type of device you are streaming from.

The Sony is loud enough. There is a button on the side that allows me to change the tone, only 3 settings. Clear enough sound. Google videos on u-tube to see why I bought the Sony.

Yes, it's LOUD on bluetooth mode, BUT when plugged in to line in, it loses volume and the bass gets very loose. But if you're looking for bluetooth audio, this is the one to buy. Crisp highs and great bass on bluetooth mode. Loud enough that, at full volume, even unplugged, you don't want to be right next to it.

TBH, the bass on the rumble is so much deeper and more intense than in the Soundlink 3. The sound in general is a lot louder on the Rumble. clarity goes as a point for the Soundlink 3 but you'll compromise volume and bass for that.of course you're still compromising portability with the rumble but i say it's a million times worth it!

I could not tell any difference. I plugged it into my cell phone so I could have more volume. It actually produced less volume than my little cell phone.

I just returned a Eureka that was LOUD! This is 10x quieter... Depends on what u consider loud.

The Bose Sound link Air has plenty of power. I mostly use it outdoors in the summer and never have the volume up too much and it sounds full and loud. I am drummer so I like music loud!

Well, JBL is definitely not portable in the sense that it requires being plugged in. Bose is pretty much top of the line, so I'm not sure what you are looking to improve on over the Soundlink? Maybe a higher model Bose?

The Bose is far louder than the Jambox, which isn't all that much louder than many phone speakers. I own a Jawbone, am considering the Bose.

I never got a chance to find out how the battery life was because the sound was horribly distorted above 1/2 volume. I highly recommend spending a little more and buying the Bose Soundlink Mini it is just as loud and the sound doesn't distort.

Hi Ronald. Unfortunately this battery can't replace the Soundlink mini's. They are completely different. I hope you find the suitable one.

No. U need to turn it on. This a a rugged portable beast. Look at Bose Soundlink for similar price, shape, and size, but better sound for something that will sit in a permanent spot.

No, I was disappointed in this as well but I love the sound and compact convenience of this unit. We have Bose in our vehicles and you cannot beat the sound.

It does pretty good. I must say that my altec Lansing has better quality sound. Better clarity and bass. Much louder than the bose.

volume is comparable...the sound isn't as rich (little bass) overall, for what want it for, it works great....but a have a bose Bluetooth speaker for serious music listening...this one works great for lower volume background music for work time.

I have both. Both are solid performers. The G drive is much louder than the mini.

Yes. Touch "Settings" on your main page. From Settings, scroll down to "Sound" and touch that. You can then touch "Volumes" and swipe across any of the choices to make them louder. You can also touch "Loud" to enhance the internal speaker. Hope that helps.

Yes it is much noisier than a typical internal device. I suspect it has something to do with its compact size

YES!!! This small speaker can be very VERY loud while losing no sound quality! It's amazing!
