Waterproofing: enjoy your music in complete safety
If you intend to use your Bluetooth speaker outdoors or near water, it's essential to consider its waterproof function when purchasing. There are several types of waterproof rating in the technology field. To help you understand how these ratings are formulated, here's how to read them.
- The first number indicates the effective protection against the device.
- The second number indicates the water protection rating.
The following are examples of water-resistance ratings:
- IPX5 : The device can withstand a small amount of unexpected water (6.3mm). This rating also includes light dust protection.
- IPX6 : The product can be hit by a more powerful jet of water, for 3 minutes at a rate of 100 liters per minute. This rating makes it dust-tight.
- IPX7 and IP67: To achieve these ratings, the product can be submerged to a depth of 1 meter for 30 minutes. This means it is completely waterproof (dust and sand).
JBL offers speakers with an IP67 rating, such as the Xtreme3, the Clip 4 Eco and the Go 3. For Sony, it offers the new SRS-XE200 with the same level (IP67). As for Sonos, the Roam portable speaker has an IP67 rating.
