About the Braven BRV-PRO
Ready for anything
Ready for anything
A friend was looking for a Bluetooth speaker he could use on his stand up paddle board. Without hesitation I recommended the Braven BRV-PRO. It features an aircraft-grade aluminum frame with a thick rubberized, shockproof exterior. This portable Bluetooth speaker's built like a tank. Actually, considering its IXP-7 rating, make that a waterproof tank.
But there's more. The Braven-PRO comes with a tie-down strap so you can lash it to bike handlebars or an ATV roll bar (just to give two examples).The speaker also has a removable accessory plate. Take it off, and you can lock down the Braven BRV-PRO onto a compatible Go Pro action mount (like the one on my friend's paddle board). Or secure two BRV-PROs (each sold separately) together. Braven's TrueWireless™ technology lets you pair them for use as left and right stereo speakers.
Big sound for wide-open spaces
The BRV-PRO's sound wasn't designed for some cramped work cubicle. It kicks out the sound with solid bass that won't get lost in the great outdoors. And the speaker has a Bluetooth range of up to 100 feet, so you can stream wirelessly from your smartphone or tablet without sitting right on top of it.
Hands-free conversation
If a call comes in on your paired smartphone while you're listening to tunes, you can hit the play/pause button on the speaker to talk hands-free using the BRV-PRO's built-in microphone. The microphone is noise-canceling, eliminating pesky background sounds, including wind.
Power to spare
The speaker's built-in rechargeable battery provides up to 15 hours of continuous operation. It also serves as a power bank for your portable device. If your smartphone or tablet is running low on juice, recharge it through the BRV-PRO's USB charging port.
