MINIRIG 3 Portable Wireless Bluetooth Speaker

Product Information

A: You can use your Minirig charger in a foreign country without the need for a voltage adapter. As long as you are using a 5V charging cable, it will work fine. connectivity It's important to make sure the USB port is powered before plugging the charger into the subwoofer, otherwise, you may short the port as the sub will try to put power out into the USB charger. Though small enough to take wherever you go, the MiniRig 3 delivers a sensational sound quality that’s wonderfully clean and balanced. Although you won’t get the same crispness as you’d get from a speaker with a dedicated tweeter, you get much more than you’d expect. A. The new MRBT-2 Minirig comes with the latest Bluetooth 4.2 software with improved stability. Unfortunately, this means the MRBT-2 will not pair with the original Bluetooth Minirig (pre-March 2017) in wireless stereo. If this is relevant to you, visit our support section for more information. They are still 100% compatible via aux (cable) mode and will work together as a wired stereo 2.1 system with the Minirig subwoofer. For the Minirig Mini and Minirig 3 we use a DSP (digital signal processor) to apply EQ and limiters to the sound. There is a latency (delay) associated with this as audio does an analog-to-digital-to-analog conversion. It is VERY short, however - less than 1000th of a second (<1ms).

A testament to how well the Minirig holds up through punishment is that it has been on three long-distance motorbike and camping trips with me. The first is from Deli to Shimla in the Himalayas, the second is the full length of Vietnam, and the latest the up the spine of the Peruvian Andes and through Colombia. Another bonus when buying a Minirig is that their modular design allows you to effectively daisy chain as many individual Minirigs speakers together as you want. They even let you add a separate subwoofer to achieve maximum low-end grunt. It sounds transparent and open with air about it, and the bass can hit seriously hard. All-out sub-bass is not on the level of a full-size speaker, but it blows away anything from B&O or Bose.With Bluetooth, the delay is around 150mS (0.15 seconds) for 1 speaker) or 500ms (0.5 seconds) for 2 speakers in stereo which is standard across most Bluetooth devices. You will notice this delay when watching a video with the 150mS delay being just about acceptable. Some video players allow you to delay the video to synchronise the sound.

This little device can deliver some sensational power, with 40w of RMS to ensure you fill a whole room in seconds. The mining 3 is very similar to the previous product in its design. Throughout the years, this is a brand that’s stayed true to a constant focus on quality in design.
