German audio specialist Teufel has launched the Rockster Cross 2, a next-generation portable Bluetooth speaker designed for adventure enthusiasts. Combining rugged durability, powerful sound, and an impressive battery life, this speaker is built to deliver high-quality audio in any environment, from urban settings to the great outdoors.
Rugged Design for Any Adventure
The Teufel Rockster Cross 2 is engineered for durability. With an IPX5 rating, it is protected against water jets, making it resistant to rain and splashes, while its shock-absorbing design ensures it can withstand bumps and drops. The speaker features recessed side grips and an adjustable carrying strap for easy portability, making it a reliable companion for camping, hiking, or beach trips. A clever tilt function allows users to angle the speaker for optimal sound dispersion when placed on the ground, enhancing the listening experience in outdoor settings.
Available in three color variants—classic Black & Red, new Black & Green, and Light Gray—the Rockster Cross 2 blends style with practicality. The robust housing and redesigned, larger control buttons on the top ensure easy operation, even in challenging conditions.
Powerful Sound with Advanced Technology
At the heart of the Rockster Cross 2 is a 2-way system featuring two 20 mm tweeters, a 120 mm subwoofer, and two rear passive diaphragms, delivering a maximum sound pressure of 98 dB. Teufel’s proprietary Dynamore® technology creates a wide, immersive stereo soundstage, while an optional outdoor mode optimizes audio for open-air environments. With a frequency range of 50 Hz to 20,000 Hz and a 39-watt Class D amplifier, the speaker produces deep bass and clear highs, making it ideal for music, videos, and more.
The speaker supports Bluetooth 5.3 with AAC for seamless music streaming from platforms like Spotify, Amazon Music, and Apple Music, with lip-sync video playback and a range of up to 15 meters. Google Fast Pair and multipoint functionality allow two smartphones to connect simultaneously, letting users alternate songs effortlessly. For larger gatherings, the Party Link feature enables wireless connection of up to 100 compatible Teufel speakers, such as the Rockster Neo or Go 2, or two Rockster Cross 2 units for a stereo pair.
Long-Lasting Battery and Modern Features
The Rockster Cross 2 boasts an impressive battery life of up to 38 hours at 70 dB, extending to 46 hours in eco mode, making it one of the longest-lasting speakers in its class. It charges via a USB-C port with up to 60 W fast charging, and a power bank function allows users to charge their devices on the go. The USB-C port also doubles as a sound card for PC and Mac, and a 3.5 mm AUX input provides additional connectivity options.
The redesigned control panel includes tactile buttons for power, Bluetooth pairing, volume, playback, outdoor mode, and Party Link, with LED indicators for battery status. The Teufel Go app offers further customization, including equalizer settings for fine-tuning the sound.

The Teufel Rockster Cross 2 is available now for €299.99 in Teufel stores and the Teufel webshop. A stereo set, comprising two speakers, is offered at €569.99. The speaker is sold exclusively through Teufel’s direct sales channels, including their webshop, online marketplaces, hotline, and brand stores.
