TaoTronics TT-BA01 Wireless Portable Bluetooth Stereo Music Transmitter

Wireless Bluetooth Stereo TaoTronics TT-BA01 Wireless Portable Bluetooth Stereo Music Transmitter (Not A Bluetooth Receiver) for 3.5mm Audio Devices (iPod, MP3/MP4, TV, Kindle Fire, Media Players...)

I haven't had the transmitter for long, but here is what I have noted so far:
1. Works great with the Kindle in Text to Speech mode.
2. Works great with Kindle Fire playing a show on Hulu+.
3. No lag with the Kindle Fire while watching shows on Hulu+ (I imagine buffering and connections could change this, but works great for me).
4. Works while plugged in and charging (saw in another review that they read it didn't so I tested it).
Only problem I have is half my household is threatening to swipe mine if I don't get them one of these.

Wireless Bluetooth JBL Charge 2 Portable Wireless Bluetooth Speaker with Built-In Mic and PowerBank (Purple)

I am writing this review mostly as a comparison to the Bose Mini Soundlink as that is the most comparable and one of the highest rated portable bluetooth speakers on the market. Yes, the Bose sounds amazing as you have probably read in many of the reviews. I was lucky enough to be able to compare them side by side as a friend of mine has a mini. I was actually planning on getting a Bose for myself, but wanted to wait until I checked out this JBL Charge 2. I'm glad I waited! As I said, the Bose sounds amazing but when put side by side with this JBL, the difference is clear!

Not only is the JBL 50 bucks cheaper, but to my surprise, it actually sounds better!! I'm no audiophile by any means, just your average consumer, but I like my music to sound good and this makes it sound great! The sound emitted from this is more true to what it should sound like whereas the Bose seems almost to heavy and artificial, mostly when it comes to the bass notes. Not something that would be noticed if just listening to one or the other by itself. The musical range is great and although the JBL is plastic, I would feel much more comfortable toting it around with me compared to the Bose.

Of course you know that it has the capability of charging USB items with it's 6000mAh battery, hence the product name "Charge", so I don't really need to get into that too much I don't think. One downfall is that it doesn't come with a carrying case/pouch. I was looking on the Best Buy website and it says it does, but that is bad information. Another downfall is JBL/Harmon doesn't make a pouch that you can just buy as an accessory, but I have found a few generic ones here on Amazon that would work for around the $10 price range.
