Monster’s new SuperStar Bluetooth speaker is touted as the world’s smallest audiophile speaker. Basically, this means that those of us who demand high-fidelity sound (audiophiles), will be impressed. If you’re looking for Monster sound, the SuperStar is the wireless speaker for you.
It’s always fun reviewing a speaker or music system because it reminds me that besides music in the car, I could really benefit from listening to music more. Listening to your favorite tunes really boosts your mood and before you know it you’re shaking your head back and forth like the famous Saturday Night Live skit, The Roxbury Boys…

Love it! This is how I felt as I listened to great sounding music while I wrote this post…I couldn’t help but move to the beat in my seat! Today’s Bluetooth speakers allow us to take our music with us…no matter where we go. No longer are we confined to having a radio signal. All we need is our smartphone and our Bluetooth speaker.
I used the SuperStar wireless speaker with Monster sound in a number of different settings.
Wireless speakers are great for:
- your office
- bedroom
- baby’s room
- pool
- beach
- shower
- long car drives through the dessert
- parties
- shillaxing with the family at home
- vacation
- baby showers
- conference calls
- exercising
- tailgate
- picnic

A Mom’s Perspective
The SuperStar Bluetooth Speaker does give monster sound. I tried it with different music genres from R&B to Pop to Christian to Country to Disco and I was impressed with its bass and clarity. Tired of my songs on my phone, I tried the SupersStar with the Milk app, Samsung’s relatively new music player. Fashioned after Pandora and powered by Slacker, Milk offers curated music channels as well as the option to include your own.
SuperStar is a great companion to turn on while working, exercising, doing the dishes, loading the laundry, feeding the baby, the list goes on. The only thing is, once your kids see it, you may have a hard time getting it back, so protect it!
Think about adding some more music into your day, it will give you a lift and have you swinging your head back and forth like the Roxbury Boys. Maybe they were onto something!
