How loud is this radio? If I use it at the beach will it provide enough sound to hear over the waves?

It gets plenty loud. The volume goes up to 16, but I rarely turn it above 7. Just be sure to charge it fully before you go. It can take a while to charge even in full sunlight.

Weary adequate volume and sound quality for it's size. Also, good AM reception even without antenna.

Sound carries well on beach.i don't think you may hook up speakers but you could hook up another unit. Need a separate power source for speakers , I think this is all accurate info.

Well, I haven't used it outside but I use it in my living room and listen in the kitchen while I'm working. I really like it but as far as range ... it depends on how well you hear. It can be very loud... Im probably not much help but it is really loud.I have never maxed it out.

I like this radio a lot, but it is not a high volume radio. In a noisy car, like my old VW Bug, it wouldn't be loud enough. Even in the bathroom, with the shower running, it's barely loud enough.

Overall I think it is pretty loud and works well outside. We used it during out block party and we could hear the music even with all the other background noise of the party. Also, the bass is decent. There is a 5 band eq that allows you to adjust the sound.

Its a good reliable marine radio that's inexpensive for generalize boating in the bay area its ok. If you are offshore boating nothing bets real quality electronics because you are the greatest asset you have.

I find it is plenty loud, but I have not been around a lot of people or noise when listening to it. I think it is meant for personal use and not a party speaker.

That's difficult to say due to the noise encountered at a beach. At a park or back yard setting, I would say yes. I would want to try one out before investing. Sorry, can't say more.

Yes. It puts out a pretty descent sound. I don't use the radio because the reception is not good. I play my cds and it works well. I am pleased with it. Let me know if you have any other questions. Enjoy.

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.

Yes, I have taken mine to the pool and the beach. I just set it on my cooler at the beach out of the sun. The sound is very clear and loud enough to hear. As with any electronic device just use common sense, and the Sharkk Bluetooth 4.0 BoomBox will server you well. I hope this answered you question.

Not bad, it depends on the environment though. It can easily drown out street traffic and daily use for like an office setting, with possibly the exception for maybe sirens, road construction, or if you're on a noisy subway or something. I usually just turn it up louder depending on the environment. I typically turn it up to about halfway on my iphone so it definitely has a lot of headroom if you want to drown out other noises.

i got this radio so that i can listen to it where i live (Manasass Park, VA) because reception down there is very bad. This radio solves that problem. I can listen to my FM station with no static. I recommend it.

I don't know about it being saltwater proof?? I would look long and hard at the specs on that issue before trusting it in saltwater. I think it would be OK as far as the noise goes, it is however very dependent on the device that is feeding it. I can hear mine pretty clear when I'm in the shower and it's on the counter about 5 ft away. This is using a Galaxy Tab 4 playing Pandora at about 1/3 max volume.

Yes. It's loud. Boat and backyard no problem. Keep in mind when portable it takes D batteries. I plan to get rechargeables when spring comes around.

Not extremely loud. I work as a contractor and it is good enough for the jobsite. We have The bigger bosch radio also and it gets really loud. I am very happy with this little one though.
