Thanks for the comprehensive review. I will add that the battery is a sealed lead acid type that the consumer can replace in a few years when it wears out, using the access panel on the bottom. Not too many Bluetooth speakers allow you to replace the battery so easily. BTW, in Canada, Costco is selling this for quite a bit more than you paid!!!
Up to 75 hours of battery life! If you are using it at max power, you wont get anywhere close to that, but it definitely will hold a charge. I have a Block Party Live and it lasts all day and then some!
Great breakdown on how the speller functions. I have one and it is a HUGE hit around the house we use the heck out of it for kareoke and patio party's. Battery life late for ever! A must have for the house!
Hi, great review! I'm charging my Ion IPA76C Block Rocker, but the charging icon continues to indicate it's charging and it's already been two days (48 hours).
I bought a ION Pathfinder in 2017 and it still works however the battery is not charging, the charger indicator and the Bluetooth as well. I tried ordering the battery and a new speaker but unfortunately it can’t be shipped overseas. I enjoy the quality of such speaker. Just saying.
Any thoughts on using this Ion Block Rocker as a portable PA system in a school gym sort of setting? The portable feature is appealing, but i don't want junk. We have parent meetings and award ceremony stuff, and I really don't want to yell and really don't want to bother with using the school's commercial speaker system they have in the gym.
I would not recommend the Block Rocker for that. For a long term reliable PA type of system I would strongly recommend getting a piece of professional gear. For instance, an Electro Voice powered speaker such as the ELX112P which gives you XLR inputs for a microphone as well as the ability to connect another piece of equipment to it like an MP3 player or other audio device. Something like that would give you MUCH better sound, loundness, clarity, build quality, etc. The Block Rocker is more towards the junk end of the scale. Yes, for the money it's OK but if you want something that will last and provide much better everything, spend more and get the quality you will not regret getting. By the way, I mention the ELX112P simply because I own them and know of their quality. But there other perhaps even more suitable choices out there for exactly what you need... portable PA systems.
Have you done a test of the speaker distorts? I read this Amazon review that guy says he blasted it at 75% volume and it didn't distort. I honestly don't believe that's true since iPhone volume doesn't sync with the speaker.
@@darenleiter9490 and I don’t believe you on that because even to this day all these iON speakers don’t have volume sync. To clarify if you don’t know what that means is you can control the volume of the speaker & phone simultaneously. So if I set my phone to 50% volume the speaker itself will set its overall volume to 50%.
I have numerous guitar amps , one is a battery Fender Mustang mini...But I have a different use for it. I should be able to aux in my tunes, plug my guitar amp aux into aux, and also plug in a mic. I also have a Mustang Micro headphone amp I should be able to use this on the deck with it plugged into aux.
Heres some free advice. Download a karoke app, hook up bluetooth, plug in the microphone and BOOYAH.....you got a free karoke machine.....YOUR WELCOME!!
hai have a party rocker it has 50 watt and it look quite similer but has party lights on top. but the microphone sound quality is bad. if i buy a better microphone will it sound better or not.
If I plugged in one microphone using the 1/4" mic plug and a second microphone using the 1/8" aux plug, would both mics work together through the speaker at the same time? (I'm hoping to use it for karaoke.)
where do you find on the app equalizer? I downloaded the app, then pushed start.. I got the message saying that unfortunately block rocker app stopped working
The older version came in two diff sizes, from costco. Is this speake in your review the bigger speaker or the smaller size? Hard to tell from the video.
Reviews, Tutorials & Tech Hey does this rocker sound any different than the older versions? I bought mine like a year ago and I noticed on songs I turn the volume all the way up there is like a distortion or to much flutter in the subwoofer, does this new rocker have to much bass in the speaker when you full blast it?
Reviews, Tutorials & Tech I bought mine at sams club for $150 then 3 months later Walmart had it for $99 I could kick myself in the butt after I found out it was cheaper to just wait lol. But does this newer rocker sound better than the older versions do you know of?
Hey, I currently have the Ion Party Rocker speaker (the first one) and I can't help but hear distortion when I raise the volume up all the way. It sounds great when not raised all the way. But I'm looking for something with louder and more crisp sound. Is this better than the Party Rocker? If it is slightly better, can you recommend some other speakers (doesn't have to be wireless) that I could buy for parties and won't get drowned out by 40+ talking.
thatchinkyguy I don't know how much different, if any, the new one is from the old. I suspect the amplification circuit is probably just about the same but I'm not sure. I'd actually suggest calling the company and asking them. As for this one, it does have a fair amount of distortion, particularly at loud volumes.
Reviews, Tutorials & Tech Okay thank you, also what's the difference with this version and the other one on the ION website, this one ends with a C (can't buy it from the website) but another one with the same name ends with an A (for $199 on the website) Any other speakers you recommend? I usually buy things off Amazon.
The one I reviewed came from Costco. It's probably just the name that Costco uses and the other you mention is the same. Like I already suggested, call the company and they can tell you for sure.
thatchinkyguy The C is a Costco exclusive! It has 2 USB ports instead of one port like the A version, and the C can pair wirelessly to a second C unit, giving you sound from two speakers at once!
I have a block rocker Bluetooth speaker bad ass block rocker I love it beat the other Bluetooth speaker products on the market thank u ion block rocker when will u have a new one for 2016 or later on thank u
Hi, how does it compare to portable bluetooth speakers such as JBL charge or Bose Soundlink III ? I might be comparing apples and oranges. But, I would like to know it is much louder and more powerful speaker than JBL charge or Bose Soundlink 3?
for me sound better than bose speakers, equalizer in your phone make a big difference. this baby sound good, battery is very good. for picnics, camping, with friends it's amazing.
the EU units have the "sleep mode". If I listen on low volume setting it goes off after 50 minutes. Support claims that I should every now and then "momentarily set high volume", which is still very annoying. I hope sb has a solution for the problem.
If I play this speaker connected, does it make a difference as opposed to not connected? Do u still have to replace the battery at the same time for both?
anyone else mic not working only after 2 months and little usage mic does not work. i have new 2018 version bought it for 79.99 at BJ's. uugh not bad price i caught it on sale... but come on.
The included mic is crap. I wouldn't come down too harshly on that though. A good microphone can cost many hundreds of dollars. A cheap, decent mic can cost as much as you paid for the entire Block Rocker. Just buy a new mic or see if it is covered under warranty.
Sharon Yates hey.. if I member correctly, power up your system, click Bluetooth on both your system and phone. place your phone on top of the system so that they can pair up. They both should be good to go when you aee the blue light that signals they are paired. you also might have to reset your Bluetooth on your phone as it my have other devices ..hopefully that works...
I just want to verify this information. If you have two units and and link them, they will function as a left and right speaker. Is this correct?? Thanks!
Hey I have two of these but I don't use the link mode...I use a cheap FM radio transmitter with a 3.5mm stereo jack plugged into my phone tablet ect. than tune my speakers FM radio to the same clear station as the transmitter. make sure you stay in good range of the FM radio transmitter and your music will sound good and clear. I don't even have to put the antennas up on my speakers. this is for people who want to use multiple speakers in my personal opinion it sounds clearer than the link mode
+Reviews, Tutorials & Tech ...mono? really? they advertise it as "true wireless stereo," so this is a serious letdown, if we can be sure it won't send a true left signal to the one designated as left (should be the only one with bluetooth icon lit, while both have link icons lit, when paired properly). is there somewhere that ion states this? or have we become certain that the person testing had a signal that was sending true stereo?
+turtlesoup7 I assumed it would be mono but since I only have one, I don't know for sure. If they advertise it as true wireless stereo, then I guess that means it would be stereo.
I just bought one and I have it charging for a day already and it's still not fully charged and it works just fine plugged in but once I unplug it, it doesn't turn on. what do I do??
Have you ever connected any other bluetooth device to your phone? This follows the same procedure... Put the speaker into bluetooth pairing mode, go to your iPhone Settings > Bluetooth and choose the speaker to connect
battery fully charge but no power probably need new battery i don't know plz any idea how or where to go to get help repairing i have same one on this video show thanks Josef
Anyone know website to download drivers for the ipa76c? My lenova laptop won't connect via Bluetooth because it can't find drivers. Thanks for any help anyone can offer.
You don't need drivers for the speaker. The drivers needed would be for the bluetooth in your laptop, if anything. Pairing mode needs to be activated on the speaker, and then selected once you have bluetooth working on the laptop.
Get a CD player and aux cable or use iTunes and copy the music off the CD to iTunes then sync it to your iPod. No one really buys CDs it's cheaper to purchase the album online.
wait wait wait ! when you say you can link 2 separate speakers at once u mean i can listen to the same music with 2 separate speakers using my bluetooth music ? so in other words i can have each speaker on each corner of room ?
+Arturo Flores I bought 2 and they link I think that they are supposed to link as a L and a R speaker, so not exactly the music, but close enough. Right now they are sitting 40 feet apart and sound great.
DO NOT BUY THESE SPEAKERS. Mine (party rocker live) stopped working after a month (same issue as everyone: bluetooth not working), and they ask you to pay for shipping to Quebec (on the other side of the country for me) and they keep it for 6 months. They don't offer a replacement in the mean time, or instructions to repair it yourself. They haven't fixed it on newer models and this problem has been going on for at least two years in various models. Read reviews. A lot of stuff goes wrong in their speakers. Their tech support is a nightmare too. Save your money. They deleted my reviews on their website, then blocked me. All I can do is spread the word until they fix it. If you buy one anyways, good luck. PS. Its a very good speaker if the bluetooth worked. You can alway just use the aux.. but, why pay so much for it then?
Mine lasted about a year and now the Bluetooth won’t work. Before I had to be turning it off and on until I got the Bluetooth light. Now it won’t even go on
Fredito Carrots go to settings then click on Bluetooth you see that button click on it when it's says Bluetooth there you go then you'll click on explore you'll click on connected you are done i hope that 😊🙌
For $100 its not worth it... glad i didn't buy it.. i was going to buy it to have on music video sets, as a playback speaker for the cast and crew as i produce them here locally. But its not loud enough.... I'll stick with my 600watt DJ speakers ....
For the price, it has a decent sound. Is it audiophile quality? Of course not. You get what you pay for. Here you get a decent sounding versatile speaker.
+Reviews, Tutorials & Tech so then you recommend pay for this??? here in Puerto Rico on Sams Club cost $129 plus 11.5% tax plus $14.99 warranty. ITS worth?
jsturrx3 I just bought mine brand new too from Amazon (IPA76A) and everything works excellant except the microphone straight out of the box doesn't work and its not the cheap microphone either! It has to do with the input area not working1
Yes there's plenty of base for something this size. I just came back from a camping trip with two of these things and we were cranking deep tech house which is seriously bassy. These things were nuts. Plenty of bass
Got mine back in 2015 and still working like new. WOW
It's a decent system for the price.

Yes anything the phone will play though Bluetooth or the headphone jack will work.
The FM reception is pathetic. Cannot clearly receive even local stations. Have not yet devised a fix.
Is this speaker good/loud enough for a party for 10-20 people in a medium house? While I listed can I charge the speaker to?
+Youtub Hitz Yes it would be loud enough for that. It can be plugged in while playing.
Okay thanks :D
