Ryobi 18V Verse LINK Stereo PCL601 – Features
This new stereo from Ryobi focuses on high quality sound. At it’s core, it features a 50 watt subwoofer for some thick BASS and dual 15 watt midrange speakers. As you can see the front and both sides are covered in speaker grills. Ryobi even goes on to say it has “studio quality”. Now I doubt it can replace actual studio monitors, I think what Ryobi is trying to say is that the sound quality is probably pretty good.
It also features 4 equalizer settings with Hi-Fi for the best overall, Bass+ for all you bass heads out there, Treble+ for boosing high-end frequencies, and Voice for listening to podcasts and audiobooks. Like all modern radios and speakers, it features Bluetooth for wireless connections with your phone and has over 250 foot Bluetooth range. As a radio, it picks up FM radio with 10 presets.
From the fact that it has LINK in its name, this new stereo is also part of Ryobi’s LINK storage system. This means that it can mount to other LINK storage boxes for easy transport in the same trip as your tool boxes.
It can also mount on Ryobi LINK wall rails for easy wall mounting options.
In the back is where we find the 18V ONE+ battery bay for cordless operation. We can expect over 12 hours of runtime when paired with a 6ah battery. This same spot is where you’ll also find the ability to connect to an extension cord for AC power for unlimited runtime.
And like most cordless stereos and speakers, this guy also has an onboard USB port to charge your mobile devices on the go.
