There’s no debating the simple fact that music is one of the most crucial elements at any social gathering — be it your birthday, casual weekend at the park or beach with friends. And don’t tell me, you don’t sing along or break a leg when your favorite track is playing in the background.
Before we talk about how the speaker looks and sounds, here’s a quick look at some of its key specifications:
Aisen B600: What’s in the Box
Aisen B600 comes packed inside a massive cardboard box, with styrofoam protection to safeguard the plastic build of the speaker from any transportation damage. You’ll find all the accessories sitting at the very top. Here’s everything you get in the speaker’s box:
All this is enough to get the speaker working, but the box is missing batteries for the remote (not really an exorbitant investment) and an AUX cable for tethered audio, rather than the lower quality Bluetooth streaming.
The Aisen B600 is a pretty bulky yet sturdy multimedia speaker, with the company saying it boasts a ‘unique acoustic’ appearance all-around. It may not exactly seem like that in the pictures attached here, I know, but the speaker is pretty huge, perhaps slightly bigger than an average home theater’s woofer.
The speaker unit that sits front and center on the Aisen B600 comes with a multi-colored LED lighting that lifts up the ambience. It turns this speaker into an attraction at parties and people will know where to queue up to play tracks. The lights seem a bit too much for daily use and it’s possible to turn it off with a dedicated switch on the rear panel, where all controls are present (more on this below).
The feet at the Aisen B600 speaker’s bottom are bare and could have included skid-proof soft pads for better noise absorption, which is already quite decent and the speaker here doesn’t even move about at high volumes. Aisen has gone with bare feet because buyers can attach castor wheels and turn it into a trolley speaker, even though the handle would prove too short for the same.
There are plenty of ports, knobs, and buttons on the rear panel of the Aisen B600 speaker. You can see for yourself in the image below that all of them are just splayed out – not too neat we must saay. There’s a ton of settings you can play around with, to control the audio output.
Then, you’ve got the USB-A port for pen drives, TF card, AUX input, 6.5 mm microphone jack, and microUSB port to round-up the ports fiesta. The three knobs on the Aisen B600 speaker help adjust the speaker volume, microphone volume, and ‘tune’ the audio output – i.e an analog equalizer. There’s the power and light switch at the bottom too.
And then there’s the remote control that Aisen bundles with its speakers. It does make it easier to control the speaker playback without having to go up to it every time. You can change the input setting, play/ pause music, set repeat, scan radio channels, or directly input the frequency for the radio channel you want.
If you are someone looking for a multimedia speaker that’s extremely loud or a hobbyist searching for a great karaoke machine, well, the Aisen B600 is ideal for you.
You can gather friends, connect your laptop, PC or smartphone to the speaker, and fire up instrumentals or lyric videos on YouTube to sing along. That’s the perfect setup for a cozy karaoke session at home.
One thing I truly despise about the battery life is that the speaker doesn’t give you any warning when the charge is running low. It simply cuts off your music abruptly and you need to plug it in to get started again.
Now that you know almost everything about the Aisen B600, you know that the speaker sounds good and is pretty loud, the karaoke mode is excellent for parties or picnics, and you can even play music using a USB drive or TF card — giving you ample choice for the mode you want to use. And for the sub-Rs 4,000 price tag, I can’t think of any reason not to recommend it.
