Can sound get through the bag? For example, if I put a bluetooth speaker in it, would I be able to decently hear my music?

It would be a little muffled I would think but I haven't tried it with a speaker, only with my iPhone. They have some cheap waterproof speakers you could look into.

No it's not Bluetooth and music doesn't come out of it, it moves to the sounds around it

I guess u can plug a mic or headphone jack in the wireless unit n have the music transmittedd out the speaker. I tell ya I am VERY HAPPY with this item.

You might be able to get some type of speaker for the player. Other than that possibility, you do have to have some kind of headphones to listen to it.

There is a headphone jack on the rear which works with my ear bugs but does not provide enough output to drive an external speaker except with very low volume.. I suspect that with a small external amplifier, an external speaker would work fine.

As long as it has a clear path between the receiver and the bluetooth speaker, you shouldn't have a problem. Depending on the quality of your speakers, it may experience a bit of lag in the transmission of the music, (i.e. your playlist is on the next song before the previous song has finished playing audibly), which is easily fixed by turning off your speaker and turning it back on.

I think you would need to run a external speaker with it. I use it in a travel trailer and sometimes it is hard to hear.

Well max volume on the iphone barely leaks. And more than 2feet away you cant hear it. The isolation imo is satisfactory, with nothing playing, you can still hear your environment, but it's still quite muffled. With sound on forget location awareness the music takes over :)

Yes you can! It's external speakers arent very good but if you get good headphones, its great for music. It has a lot of built in memory and a place for a micro SD card for any files you want. It fits every pair of headphones Ive tried with it.

The sound output is good. You will be able to hear from it even with some amount of surrounding noise, especially if the bluetooth fits well in your ear.

You can still hear the speaker but it will be a little muffled. The foam cushion that surrounds and protects the phone inside the case will dampen the sound from the speaker when the phone is clamped in. I only listen this way right before or right after a ride. I don't think you will be able to listen that way while riding if that's what you want to do.

maybe... maybe not. The connection between the headset and the source needs to be almost line-of-sight. Your connection will depend on where in the bag the source is, how thick the messenger bag is, and where you carry the bag. Example: I find that the headset works best when the source (in my case, ipod nano) is on my right side. I think the bluetooth receiver is in the right earbud. Just my own body can cause interference when I move the nano to my left side. Hope that helps!

Yes there is a built in limit to the audio capacity running through the projector. i personally bi-pass the speaker setting in the projector and use the audio setting thru my laptop and play the audio thru my laptop thru blue tooth to a wireless blue tooth speaker. The wireless blue tooth speaker i went with is from Costco and i get great volume and great sound quality. another option for you is to go to a music store (where they sell amp's, drum sets, ect) and they will have blue tooth speakers with built in amps for DJ's and those really kick butt... in short the audio capacity in the projector is really terrible but the picture is great in dark settings.

Dear Abhishek,Thank you for your post. The speaker is indeed covered by holes, which allows the sound to travel through the holes while still protecting it from getting damaged more easily (i.e., food, dust, sharp objects, etc). Please feel free to message us again if you have any additional questions or concerns. Best,Ryan

Hi R: No, but I put it in my pocket anyway (it is very light and small). I would suggest you to use in-ear headphones, though.

The sound is fine. People can hear me fine and I can hear them. At first I had problems.. I simply took. My phone out and reinstalled it in the case and it was fine. As for playing music, the sound is a but muffled. You can still hear it but if you want a louder, more clear sound you have to open the charging plug and headphone plug and then sound is loud as usual. Hope this helps.

The sound output is not that great by itself. I connect mine to a JAM portable speaker which allows me to adjust the volume sound to what I want. If you want the sound output tol be heard by a large group, you will need to find an external speaker to your liking.
