I would not call it "wimpy", but that smaller speaker used with the 
battery option is a bit on the "tinny" side.
Refer to the KBT1 instruction manual and check to be sure the speaker 
has the little foam ring and that it is inserted properly.

Another point with that internal battery option - I have seen some who 
have shorted out the batteries by placing the battery holder in 90 
degrees from the way it should be - the length of the batteries goes 
from the front to the back *not* side to side.
