According to our Bluetooth speaker expert
Do you want to compare the sound quality of JBL speakers?Click here.
The JBL Boombox is a portable speaker with a powerful bass sound. The bass sound is produced by 4 active transducers and 2 bass radiators. Thanks to the waterproof casing, you can use the Bluetooth speaker without problems on the beach or by the pool. You can connect a maximum of 2 smartphones to the Boombox via Bluetooth. That means you and a friend can take turns deciding what music will blast from the speaker. When listening to music at an average volume, the battery lasts up to 24 hours. Does your smartphone's battery run out sooner than the battery of the Boombox? You can charge your smartphone via the USB port.

I bought this speaker... I liked the quality, uh... So good that there is now a 2nd! The connection is beeped in no time via the JBL connect+. Stereo is present, no lag (delay) between both speakers.
The basses go sub-low, it is true that you can temper the bass if desired, just put it in outdoor mode! Ooh yes for the real bass lovers... It has a Low frequency mode... Then it goes a lot lower, but then you have to pay attention that your volume is also a bit lower. Would be a shame to mess with him like that.
I have also noticed when they are plugged in that they go even faster, on further research my feeling was correct. AC = 60W Battery: 40W
You read everywhere that you can't have conversations with your smartphone... Such monsters are not made for conversations!
Sometimes I connect it to the TV via 3.5. There is always a noticeable delay via bluetooth. This is device dependent. That way my TV gets an audio upgrade too! Without having to invest in soundplate/home cinema/...
The weight of the speaker is certainly present, but thanks to the handle it is perfectly portable. What is also a plus is that there is an anti-slip at the bottom, so it stays neatly in place. As you can read, this one is really used for everything with me!

As a dance teacher it is very nice to have a good speaker for when you don't have good sound in the room, the BoomBox is able to easily fill a large room with good sound, and they also hold their own outside with a special outdoor mode that you can enable from your phone. All pitches are clear, and the bass can be felt! Even at high volume, everything remains in balance.
Teach everywhere, always have a party with you, and charge your phone yourself (because it might last less than the speaker!)
The only drawback is that my "old" JBL Xtreme is no longer allowed to participate with the new JBL Connect, my charge 3 could still be updated, but no longer functions with older JBL Connect speakers.
All in all a very good speaker with a great battery life and a bizarre amount of good sound.
