My biggest complaint is that I haven't painted mine. I like that if need be I can attach another speaker to it to get more sound, but it isn't stereo. I don't think stereo would help anyway. I also don't like the waterproofing solution (put it in a ziplock bag) it just seems cheesy to me, it doesn't affect the sound at all. Other than that I love it. I get the good remote without having to get the really expensive units. The remote is slow to respond and I wish it would let me know when I have it on mute for troubleshooting. Only time I've ever had problems were dead batteries or I had it on mute.
