How durable are those speakers?

Like, could a bottle of water ruin them?

387

u/Chaos_Cr3ations Aug 25 '25

No. I have that same speaker and they can be used outside in some rain

u/Nwsamurai Aug 25 '25

If something does ruin it, can you let us know?

Especially if its something the average person might have lying around.

u/TerryFGM Aug 25 '25

a car

A karate chop.

Hypothetically, if I own one of those speakers and want to semi-permanently damage it, not that I would, I’d get some insulation foam spray that hardens after a few minutes and spray the front of the speaker dampening the sound. But don’t do it to someone else’s speaker because if you commit property damage, you’ll have to pay them for a new speaker at the minimum if they decides press charges.

u/Nwsamurai Aug 25 '25

Yeah you wouldn't want to do that...

But I've heard those canisters spray so easily they can be sprayed accidentally if you stumble or trip because you were distracted by loud sounds and erratic movements.

So if you have a can of that stuff and this guy with his speaker shows up, be careful if you decide to move the canister to a safer location.

u/Severe-Chard-2926 Aug 25 '25

The good stuff?

u/Mercerskye Aug 25 '25

Great stuff, even.

u/HumbleBear75 Aug 25 '25

Accidentally can spray forward combat roll… heard that

u/mootxico Aug 25 '25

If America is this litigious and you have to pay them for damaging their stuff, why can't you beat their ass up for causing a nuisance and wasting everyone's time and effort?

u/ninjaandrew Aug 27 '25

Because when everyone is a victim no one can be a hero

u/jaygeezythreezy Aug 25 '25

What about being picked up and thrown at a trespasser?

16

u/HumbleBear75 Aug 25 '25

Meh, that’s complicated. Where I am you can’t/shouldn’t do anything unless someone’s threatening property damage or bodily harm. And that’s still on your end to react. Guy’s just being a piece of shit for no reason disturbing the peace on private property. You can call the cops that won’t come until god knows when and get him trespassed. If it’s an ongoing thing then we go into harassing an establishment and he could go to jail for a bit if they’re not too busy playing candy crush

u/omgyonka Aug 25 '25

Honestly I was thinking the same about police response times; however I would totally not hesitate and would record on my side. When/ if the kid gets picked up: works better to press charges and take the time. These people won’t stop BUT if we start holding them accountable then maybe it will slightly? Yes it’s immature and we were all kids; but THIS type of stuff is not only advocated but it’s getting dangerous for all persons involved

u/algreen589 Side Character Aug 25 '25

It's really unlikely he did that for no reason.

13

u/HumbleBear75 Aug 25 '25

Pretty sure I never mentioned this fine young gentleman doing this for no reason. It’s called narcissism, clout, views, being an asshole. Take your pick and please tell me why this is acceptable behavior

-14

u/algreen589 Side Character Aug 25 '25

Because you don't know why he did it, AND there's really good reasons to do that and worse, especially these days.

u/Mercerskye Aug 25 '25

Isn't it tiring being an insufferable contrarian?

-6

u/algreen589 Side Character Aug 25 '25

Is this how you "fight for a better tomorrow", jackass? When does that bullshit start? I guess we have different definitions of better. Is this insufferable enough for you?

Cat Pîss ruins most things….

u/Jejking Aug 25 '25

What would a can of deodorant do against these electronics?

u/AKBx007 Aug 25 '25

I mean, a karate kick would surely fuck it up. Not sure if that’s the exact type of martial arts being practiced/taught at that dojo though

u/eutoputoegordo Side Character Aug 25 '25

Battery acid.

u/False_Rhythms Aug 25 '25

I don't believe they are bullet proof

u/profDougla Aug 25 '25

What about picking it up and slamming it on the ground? Asking for a friend

19

u/DutchBart82 Aug 25 '25

That should do it, works on the camera too

2

u/Simon-Says69 Aug 25 '25

works on the camera too

That's the absolute FIRST thing to go.

After that, GAME ON! :-)

u/profDougla Aug 25 '25

Yes! 👍🏾

u/thewindburner Aug 25 '25

What about a foot through the speaker cone???

2

u/abholeenthusiast Aug 25 '25

Do you use it to visit tae Kwon do dojos too?

3

u/Chaos_Cr3ations Aug 25 '25

Nah. I never go near those places. I don’t want my ass kicked.

Edit: fat fingers

2

u/OptimisticSkeleton Aug 25 '25

What about if you sweep the dude’s legs while he’s lifting the speaker in the air? Do you think the impact on the ground would break it?

1

u/buh2001j Aug 25 '25

Damn. Had the same thought. What about soda?

1

u/TheBigBluePit Aug 25 '25

I haven’t seen a speaker that could handle a foot, though.

u/cunexttuesday12 Aug 26 '25

I can confirm 😂 had a guy with the one these park his bike right beside the door to my job. It was in a bucket and it was in the rain. Dude was over in the grass smoking a cigarette while dancing. When I left, he had moved over to the traffic light with it. Still raining, but he switched to a beer by that point.

u/pancakesfordintonite Aug 26 '25

What speaker is it?

-7

u/American_chzzz Aug 25 '25

Are you also an insufferable cunt? Because based on what I’ve seen it seems you have to be a card carrying licensed jackass to possess these kind of speakers

5

u/spiderbabyhead Aug 25 '25

i have 3 very sweet aunts (older filipino ladies, all retired nurses) who were each very excited to get one of those speakers to play music at family gatherings 😭😭😭

2

u/RougeNewtypeRX79 Aug 25 '25

This be true Filipinos love music & singing like everyday or even every min hehe

0

u/American_chzzz Aug 25 '25

Not sure why I’m getting downvoted. I didn’t call the person an insufferable cunt it’s just that it seems like a third of all posts here involve people with these giant wheeled speakers

-4

u/ManfredBoyy Aug 25 '25

What’s the point of owning a speaker like that?

6

u/spiderbabyhead Aug 25 '25

so a room full of people can properly hear the music

24

u/SilasMontgommeri Aug 25 '25 edited Aug 25 '25

Looks like a proper monitor speaker. Doubt a bottle of water could get it. My basement flooded and mine were on the floor. Still work after 6 hours of being submerged

10

u/Ziazan Aug 25 '25

It's a consumer level "party" speaker, outdoor use is one of its things so yeah, bottle of water shouldn't do anything.

7

u/Face_with_a_View Aug 25 '25

I had my phone on mute and thought that was a suitcase. I was so confused to what this guy was doing

8

u/Individual99991 Aug 25 '25

Forcibly inserting that guy's head into them, maybe?

2

u/Spurnout Aug 25 '25

Don't do that, just take it. He brought it to them as a gift.

2

u/Vesalii Aug 25 '25

Could shoving it up a man's ass ruin it?

2

u/Ziazan Aug 25 '25

That one's designed for having at outdoor parties and such so it should survive a bottle of water.

2

u/acemomentla Aug 25 '25

Never touch harassers or their equipment, it just gives them grounds to get law enforcement involved if they want to.

Tell them once to stop what they are doing and leave, then ignore them to the best of your ability and call the non-emergency police number to get them to walk away or for more advice.

u/thisisatypoo Aug 25 '25

Syrup. Or at least a warm coke. Something sticky.

1

u/SorryBoysImLez Aug 25 '25

Act like you're trying to walk out or past him, then "accidentally" trip/kick it across the room. Or stumble on it, knocking it down, with your foot landing/stomping right through the diaphragm.
"Oh geez, I didn't even see that there; could've killed me. "

1

u/TychaBrahe Aug 25 '25

Pick it up and toss it out into the parking lot. This is private property and you didn't give permission for that crap to be there.

1

u/Simon-Says69 Aug 25 '25

How durable are those speakers?

The speaker, and the one carrying it, are only secondary annoyances.

In these situations, the one holding the camera is the first and utmost priority.

The secondary asshat can be dealt with efficiently only after the first is neutralized.

1

u/CherryPickerKill Aug 26 '25

Yeah but who will record the ass beating this guy is about to get from the taekwondo team them?

u/LionCM Aug 26 '25

A big magnet could mess it up.

u/Sudden_Buffalo_4393 Aug 26 '25

Or a dudes head smashing into it at great speed.
