the longer I play music through it (at a medium volume, even), the more scratching/static noises come through.

The product itself is great, I was absolutely in love with it until it wouldn't charge and will only play for a minute while charging then starts making a loud beeping noise then dying

I was blown away by the sound quality.... you can hear it over running water or other loud noises

I'm not a fan of the really loud noises it makes when it powers on and off and connects to a device either, but all in all its been a useful device and the fact that I can adjust the volume (meaning touching it and getting it wet), and have it right next to the sink while I do dishes is
