The Fugoo XL sounds equally deep and profound as the A2, just more natural overall, both offer 360° sound and it works well on both, although you will indeed get some real stereo separation with the Fugoo XL, as the main drivers aim outwards, while with the A2 you will rather get some front/back separation, because one channel is played to the backside of the speaker

But... and here is the letdown, the Fugoo XL is definitely the softest of all these mentioned speakers yet

Also the louder Fugoo Xl gets, the quieter the bass gets

The Fugoo is more like two 45 Db speakers than a 90Db one

The Fugoo XL solves this problem while adding extra features

Fugoo at least has two disadvantages

The Fugoo xL portable Bluetooth speaker is for someone who loves blaring music when alone at their house, or frequently needs some sound when in small groups outside

Even at NORMAL listening levels the Fugoo sounded for all the world like it was suffering from a blown out tweeter.

Awesome job, FUGOO!

that should come with a $300+ bluetooth speaker,not impressed fugoo.

Also, for a bit of a pro-tip, if you're looking for a cheap durable way to carry, or secure your Fugoo XL, I suggest large Velcro cable ties, with it's slots on the top, and bottom, it'll easily hook up to an old luggage strap, or tie down to virtually anything.

I think both Fugoo XL and JBL Xtreme are really great units and both are not perfect, but both complement each other pretty well and with these wonderful choices I wouldn't even consider any of the other UE or Braven junk at all.

I already liked the small Fugoo a lot and the big one feels exaclty the same just being bigger

doesn't matter a lot to me but it is worth noting that the Fugoo is the clear winner here as well.

While I can still hear the bass drum pump from some 10-20 meters away with the Xtreme thanks to the obvious bass-boost, the Fugoo XL starts sounding a bit lost from some distance, you can try turning on "outdoor mode", but this will result in a harsh distorted sound which pushes bass more to the background at the same time

The Fugoo sounds great no matter how it is placed or where you are in relation to it.2

Durable and elegant in an industrial sort of way, this fugoo is straight from heaven.

Update: I downloaded a software update from Fugoo addressing this very issue and it has solved the problem to a great extent.

Thank you, Fugoo, for making an awesome product!P.S.I bought this speaker with my own money (after lots of research) and voluntarily wrote this review

I love this fugoo

This Fugoo seemed like the perfect speaker for my needs, with a long battery life and lots of customizable settings in software.

Also the louder Fugoo Xl gets, the quieter the bass gets

I have an $80 Logitech speaker set for my labtop and it blows this Fugoo out of the water

I bought two of these Fugoo XL Toughs without hesitation because I loved my first fugoo original so

The Fugoo is hands down the best you can get

I am not saying do not buy this speaker at all but if it's something you want to use outdoors or on a job site where this is a lot of ambient noise this is not the speaker for me at all... sorry fugoo again just my personal opinion

I returned this item promptly and received a replacement Fugoo Tough XL speaker thinking the first speaker must have had a rare defect

Sorry FUGOO!

The speaker that does everything the best is the Fugoo.

Luckily, I have 11 employees who have degrees in computer science, and the consensus is that Fugoo's "fix" does not work.

The Fugoo was clear the winner for the openness of the sound.

So far Fugoo does not support stereo pairing with another unit yet (although rumors say that it will come with an update) nor multipairing with several devices at once, but switching between different devices works pretty well by simply pressing the Bluetooth button twice, the first buttom press will interrupt the first connection and with the second button press the speaker will try connecting to the next device already paired

I like the Fugoo Tough XL speaker a lot

About a year ago I purchased my fugoo and I loved it
