Experiences with Korg Konnect?

The Korg Konnect was another mini PA system presented at NAMM 2018, even smaller than the Bose S1 Pro.
The only experience I read about it here in the forum was by Zuki, who neither liked the Konnect nor the Bose S1 Pro, but I think he is just used to much more powerful speakers.
Has anybody else given the Konnect a try? It seems to have very low sales figures so far, it's hard to find reviews anywhere.

Thanks, that's about the only one I've found too.
Thomann doesn't even have it in its product range.
At Musicstore Cologne nobody has rated it yet.
And even Sweetwater - no reviews.

It’s hard to beat physics! They are trying to produce the lightest speaker that is stereo... inside one box. Hard to do!!

It's not meant to be as powerful as e.g. a Nano 300.
I own a Bose Sounddock 10, which is one piece and very powerful, so the Konnect could be similar and a little lighter. The Sounddock 10 weighs 8.4 kilograms (18.5 lb) - enough for my female muscles.

The German magazine Keyboards has reviewed the Korg Konnect now.

The full review is only available when buying the printed magazine. But the summary says everything positive (balanced sound, strong wattage) except that feedback suppression could be better.
At Musicstore Cologne and Dutch "Bax" the price has dropped from 499 to 386 Euros, so I'm on the fence of trying it out.

Depends on what your use is. Don't throw too much through it, especially bass.

Price went up to 407€ again, but yesterday I quickly ordered a B-ware Konnect at Musicstore Cologne for 366€. At the weekend there will be a showdown Korg Konnect versus Bose Sounddock 10, and I‘ll keep the better one...

This thing is definitely very, very loud without distorting.

Bose S1 Killer?

Here's my outdoor test with about 65% volume:

Cute arrangement of Street Life.

Thanks, I played that on a Yamaha MoXF some years ago.

Crossover nice demo of the Korg connect and I dig the "Street Life" performance also so kool. When someone on SZ post a demo of their work its a very special moment vs just talking,....it just emphasizes the topic & makes the reader & listener absorb it all...wish more would do it also. Thanx for sharing...More More More..now I gotta go find one in a store to play too ....just sayin'....
