It delivers 200 W RMS through two 5.25-inch woofers and two 1-inch tweeters, enough for a backyard or a large room.

Can I use a microphone or guitar with it?

Yes. It has a mic input and a guitar input alongside Bluetooth, USB, optical and aux inputs.

Is it safe outdoors in the rain?

It carries an IPX4 rating, so it resists splashes and light rain, but it should not be submerged or left out in a downpour.

How does it compare with the PartyBox 110?
