welcome to my unboxing and first look at the am that is amp an Tech Mobile
products sp1 so the reason I have a couple Jam Boxes by Jawbone here we'll
leave those aside for later is because this is sort of a similar style of
device so a couple things uh stream digital media wirelessly from Bluetooth
enabled devices okay chat so the built-in microphone lets you pick up and
Place calls listen to your favorite song watch a movie or play games with big
sound okay up to 10 hours of playback time the sp1 is always ready when you
are and has a range of up to 10 m with Bluetooth or you can also use a 3 and 12
mm cable so let's go ahead and slice
open the packaging here the very nice
packaging by the way so am amp antech
mobile products is an a product line
from antec that is all about mobile products and not and not power supplies
but rather different stuff so the first thing we find inside is
oo sexy ribbon 3 and 1/2 mm cable okay
so that's just a 3 and2 mil to 3 and 1/2 mil so you use that from like say for
example your phone to your speaker okay
so we'll put that uh aside for now right there then we've also got ooh ribbon USB
charging cable so there's a micro USB to
USB connector with u sort of ribbon cable that's awesome okay so put that
aside for now as well now we can remove the bottom piece here and remove the amp
sp1 from the packaging so something probably about warranty and whatnot and
then something else here which is a user's manual and it's very very very
short which makes sense
okay so this is the device itself it has a very sort of oh it has kind of a
strange shape to it so it's not quite Square you can see there's a bit of
curvature here and here giving it sort
of a like um I don't know different
shape it's also yeah it's you see again you from the side you can see it's not
quite Square there either so it's more of a what are they called trapezoid
trapezoid shape from the side uh here you've got just your usual plus minus
which is an all likelihood is volume and then this is would be for answering or
hanging up calls there's the built-in microphone and then you've got kind of a
speaker grill that has a fabric behind it that looks very nice as well so I'm
not sure which way you put it down do you put it down this way do you put it
down probably I would think this way but then it sort of it doesn't really rock
at all okay on this side you find all of your inputs and outputs there's your
onoff switch which seems to have a little plastic cover on it that I can't
ah there we go sort of coming off now you've got your 3 and half mil headphone
jack and your charging port and on the other side you don't find a whole lot so
the only real way to evaluate something like this is to take it put it next to
the thing that it's sort of um competing with with and find out which one sounds
better so the answer of which way it's oriented was answered pretty the answer
of the question of which way to orient it was answered pretty quickly you can
either put it down like this or up like this because it's only the narrow side
this side that doesn't really have any sound coming out of it so we're going to
put it like this it didn't come with a charge out of the box so we're just using a mobile USB battery so we'll go
ahead and Crank It Up
initial impressions well sorry initial impressions are very very positive
compared to jam boox which when you crank up all the way um sounds sort of
brutal uh so we'll go ahead and turn that on for you guys here we go oh is
this not charged either oh awesome okay hold on let's see if this one is I don't
use them often so it sort of makes sense that they aren't charged but we'll go
ahead and do this and then we will do this and then we
will do this
bam all right so let's turn this one up all the way and you guys can kind of
hear the contrast Le you can try and hear the
P so J boox isn't loud and uh when you do actually get it
cranked up it just sort of it it gets very Distortion whereas the sp1 actually
doesn't distort pretty much at all even at full volume so yeah there you go sp1
portable Bluetooth speaker doad it's
rechargeable whatnot don't forget to subscribe to L Tech tips for more unboxings reviews and other computer
