Is the 800 W rating real?

It is peak power, not RMS. Expect continuous output well below that figure, in line with other budget battery PA speakers.

Can it run on AC power?

Yes. It runs from the rechargeable battery or from a wall outlet, so you are not limited to battery runtime indoors.

Yes, a microphone and a remote control are included, and there is a 1/8-inch headphone jack for private listening.

It offers a mic input, remote and PA-style controls those consumer speakers lack, but sound quality and build are a step below them.

It has Bluetooth and a headphone jack but no documented line-out or stereo linking, so treat it as a standalone unit.

It weighs 39.2 lb and has no wheels, so one person can carry it short distances but a cart helps for longer hauls.
