WARNING
Your Sonic Boom speaker has an IP67 rating, as it is waterproof, sand
proof, and dustproof. Nonetheless, special precautions must be heeded when
using your speaker.
- The waterproof covers on the top and rear of your speaker must be securely closed when using your speaker in conditions where water or moisture are present. Failure to do so can cause damage to your speaker.
- Avoid using your speaker in standing water or in extreme weather situations such as thunder and lightning storms.
- Do NOT allow your speaker to be exposed to any water or moisture while it is being charged or while it is plugged into a power outlet. Doing so can raise the risk of electric shock and also cause damage to your speaker.
- Make sure your speaker is completely dry before charging or plugging it into a power outlet. Similarly, any phones or other devices paired with your speaker should be kept dry during use unless otherwise noted by the device’s manufacturer.
- If your speaker is exposed to salt water, wash it off with fresh water and then dry thoroughly before using.

Using Your Speaker to Charge USB Devices
The Sonic Boom speaker can be used to charge most smartphones and other
electronic devices that plug into a USB port for charging. Plug one end of
your device’s charging cable into your device and plug the other end into any
of the USB 5V Output ports on your Sonic Boom (you will need to open the
waterproof cover). The Sonic Boom does not need to be plugged into a power
outlet in order to charge your electronic devices through the USB output
ports, however, its battery life will decrease until the next time you
recharge it. Three different USB-powered devices can be charged at once.
Using Your Speaker to Power Devices that have an AC Adapter Plug
The Sonic Boom speaker can also be used to power devices that plug into an AC
power outlet for power. Plug your device’s AC power plug into either of the AC
Power Outlets on the rear of your Sonic Boom (you will need to open the
waterproof cover). Note that the Sonic Boom needs to be plugged into either an
AC or DC power outlet in order to power your electronic devices and the ON/OFF
switch needs to be in the ON position. Two different AC-powered devices can be
charged at once.

- AC INPUT (Wall Power): 100 ~ 120V 50 / 60 Hz (1050W)
- AC OUTPUT 100 ~ 120V 50 / 60 Hz (MAX 1000W COMBINED)
Be sure that when powering one or two devices using your speaker’s AC Power Outlets, that the devices do not exceed 1000 total watts. Failure to heed this warning can result in damage to your devices and/or personal injury. Please take caution.
Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. One speaker will only produce mono sound. I must add that I was skeptical at first. However, this thing blows away any comparable device I’ve ever come across. Clear definition with booming bass. -

It is. As long as you keep all ports properly closed when exposing it to water. By far the best Bluetooth speaker I have bought. Sounds great. -
Is it possible to use a microphone that connects with a USB cable?
Yes, you can. I actually connect 2 wireless ones so we can do Karaoke. -
How do you charge this speaker?
You get a charger with it. Just plug it into the wall socket. You can’t charge it with USB. -
Can you use a car charger to use it?
Yes if you have an inverter but if you don’t then no because the speaker requires a 120-volt source. -
