Third-party reviews

Based on ratings from across the web.
Reviews last updated: August 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about Nyne Bass

  • Powerful audio performance with deep, heavily boosted bass
  • Excellent value for money, outperforming higher-priced competitors
  • Can get exceptionally loud, making it ideal for outdoor gatherings
  • Built-in power bank feature allows charging of mobile devices via USB
  • Sturdy build quality with a tough, rubberised exterior for protection
  • Convenient extra features including NFC tap-to-pair and a hidden carrying handle
  • Strong, reliable Bluetooth connection with easy pairing capabilities

What customers don't like about Nyne Bass

  • Large and heavy, weighing nearly 7 lbs, which limits its portability
  • Audio can distort or produce a whistling port sound at maximum volume on bass-heavy tracks
  • Not waterproof or splashproof, which limits full outdoor utility near pools
  • The integrated microphone can produce lower volume or diminished quality during outdoor calls
  • High frequencies can occasionally sound screechy or lack sharpness at high volumes
  • The outer soft plastic shell can scratch or ding relatively easily

Verdict

The Nyne Bass is a portable 2.1-channel Bluetooth 4.0 speaker featuring two active drivers and a built-in active subwoofer that deliver a total of 35 watts RMS of power. Main pros include a tough rubberized exterior, a concealed carrying handle, up to 10 hours of playtime from its 4400 mAh rechargeable battery, NFC touch pairing, an integrated microphone for hands-free calling, and a 5V 1A USB output that functions as a power bank to charge mobile devices. However, main cons are its bulky size and 6.65-pound weight which restrict its overall compactness, a lack of official waterproof or splashproof protection, and audio distortion on tracks with deep sub-bass when pushed to maximum volume.
