  • Can't go wrong. Great Sound and SIZE. Easy to carry. Connects with Karaoke mics. Can Pair
Style: Speaker + Case
Having used a 400W sub before and loved how that sounded I was worried if these 100W JBLs would be enough. While the 400W was definitely overkill for any house/basement party, these 100W can definitely fill any room. For it's size, weight, portability, and phone/bluetooth functionality, this is a no-brainer to have. I also have the JBL GO3, and while those are great in its own right, it doesn't pack enough punch to power a party. These, however, are great for any party. We used the mics for karaoke, connects seamlessly, and apparently you can add another box as well! Without a wall outlet to plug to, the runtime is pretty quick, though. Like, maybe 3 hours? I wouldn't rely on it without power. Overall, great! ... show more

  • Great speaker but wait until there is a sale and buy two
Style: Speaker
This is a great speaker and if you can afford it you should probably get two of them. I wanted a bluetooth speaker that I could take outside to use for BBQs with the kids and neighbors. I didn't need anything excessively big or loud for that but I still wanted something with decent bass and quality that didn't sound "small". I wanted a real speaker and not something you'd clip on your backpack. I did a ton of research and at the perfect moment for me this speaker was announced and I was able to get one locally a month or two later. Initial impression wasn't awesome but then I listened a bit more and I used the app to make two adjustments. I bumped the bass level on the EQ up by 1 notch and I turned on deep bass mode. I use mine plugged in which does make a difference so if you're on battery your adjustments or impression may be different. After getting used to the nuances and making these adjustments I started to realize how great this speaker is. It has solid bass and provides a clear, high quality sound without struggling and without any obvious issues. From 20-25ft we set it at 40-50% volume and it's perfect for my use case. Multiple people have commented how good it sounds. A few months later a family member was planning a large outdoor birthday party and these came on sale at the same time so I ordered a second one from Amazon so that I could use two of them for stereo mode. Everything that is good about a single speaker is enhanced with a second so the result is awesome. Once again people were asking about the speakers and commenting on how great they sounded and I am very glad that I got the second speaker. The only real drawback is the price especially if you're getting two of them which I highly recommend. $250 each or $450-500 for a pair makes more sense and is a bit easier to justify for "high quality casual" use like mine. That and "punchy" bass mode is absolute garbage. Just leave it on deep bass and you'll be fine. ... show more

  • Kind of the ultimate BBQ speaker.
Style: Speaker
I wanted a speaker for family nights, and outside activities that packed more features and more volume than your typical small cylinder you'd see with JBL's own flip, or the Bose Revolve speakers. At the same time, I was not in the market for some heavy tower beast you typically see with $600+ party speakers. This really met my expectations. Not only was the price (on sale) a good budget pickup, but it's goldilocks size and performance set it apart. It's easily luggable, has some water resistance, connects quickly and clearly to my iPhone. The panels on the back allow for different connections, including a Microphone connector, and apparently a connector for USB drives with mp3's on it. It also has an auxiliary connection if you want to play some lossless HIFI audio from your phone. The audio inside the house easily caps out at 50% before it's just ridiculously loud. This is both on battery or plugged into power. Depending on your own home, you may not need to even use the bass boost function, as it can become overpowering. When used outside, however, the bass boost is much more useful and helps round out the sound. The sound it produces is pleasant, warm and clear. It's clearly a sculpted sound to punctuate the lows (bass), but it doesn't drown out dialogue, vocals, and other instruments. It's clearly trying to be the life of the party with it's tuning. I think it does a wonderful job given how small it is for the sound it produces. My 2 year old uses the JBL microphone I bought separately for this speaker and loves to singe along with his favorite songs, as does my 6 year old. The Karaoke feature is basically a must if you have kids. It's a great way to keep singing a central part of your family's activities, without buying some throwaway frozen themed karaoke toy that's hard use and gets forgotten about. Highly recommended for families who want more sound and features than a Flip or Revolve or Soundlink but still want to be able to carry the speaker from place to place without much fuss. ... show more

  • Great Jam Box
Style: Speaker
After purchasing 3 UE Hyperboom's that all had connectivity issues, (skipping) I bought this Boom Box Essential by JBL and it's been seamless from the start, clean clear highs and great base. Impressive sound quality for a battery powered speaker... BTW I'd rate it neck and neck with the UE speaker which is more expensive. Plan on using this JBL speaker outside poolside once the weather warms up, but in the meantime jamming away in the house. I like the EQ available using the JBL app and as I said, no blue tooth issues at all. The base boost is great. The app also allows connectivity of multiple speakers at once so I'm toying with the idea of adding another one of these and have a surround sound effect at the pool. Overall this is a great buy at $249. and would certainly recommend it to friends. Delivery was quick and everything showed up in pristine condition. ... show more
