I believe this is the lowest price ever offered from JBL on the PB100, which is a really great speaker in this market. Peace

Not saying one product is better than the other, but one company makes nothing but audio products, another is known for portable battery packs and charging cables...

I own 2 of these and 2 party box 300. One word of caution for DJ-ing is the audio lag on these specifically. Almost 1 full second of lag, keeping them out of sync with headphones plugged into a mixer or controller (this delay exists even when using the wired connection) so if you are comfortable mixing In The headphones only can be a great solution. If you like the one headphone tactic it constantly sounds like a train wreck.

My brother has one of these and it sounds great.

Been looking to buy one and almost jumped on it when it was $250. This is awesome for $200.

I've listened to a few Bluetooth speakers, and unless you're just looking for something that very portable (not saying this isn't, it's just bigger than most), I think it's very hard to beat this for this price.

It also sounds fantastic for karaoke if you're Asian and into that kind of thing Big Grin
My brother also has a Bose S1 Pro and it sounds pretty similar. I would say audio wise, the Bose sounds cleaner, but definitely not $400 better. I actually prefer the JBL for karaoke.

Just an all around great buy for $200!

What about non Asian people that are into that kind of thing??? Smilie

Why the JBL over the Anker Soundcore Rave?

The one in the link is renewed, but I think WM has them for 200.

Edit. Yep. $200 at WM.

https://www.walmart.com/ip/Anker-...SellerId=0

The difference is one of them is a true $199 speaker, and the other is a once $300-ish speaker being offered for $199.

JBL PartyBox 100 is the king in this category.

The Soundcore Rave sounds like booty in comparison. It's a drastic difference in overall clarity, bass and upper range detail.EEK!

I got one and it's perfect for home use. They can be paired up if you have 2. The 100 can mount to tripod and the 300 can't. I love the fact that u can take it camping or tailgating with built in battery.
Yep. I bought an inexpensive pair of Amazon tripods and have a pair of the PB100's behind my basement couch. I've used these for parties direct wired to my laptop and they will rock an indoor or outdoor party. Great speakers all around.

For those of you just looking for decent sound on the relatively cheaper end, Costco has the ion Pathfinder 4 for $90. I imagine this JBL has better sound but I wasn't overly concerned for a party speaker. I just bought it and it was a huge hit. Has an IP rating, wireless charging, bottle opener and some fun lights.

I purchased the ion pathfinder 4 for 89.99 and later purchased another to pair. Basically 2 linked together sound amazing and you get water proof speakers. Each speaker also 120 watts. The jbl is great knowing it's only one speaker. While the ion will have the Costco warranty which will always win in my case.

The JBL PartyBox 200 has no internal battery, therefore it can only be used if plugged into an outlet.

I have the 100 and trust me it's the one you want. Tremendous sound for it's size and true wireless portability.

I did say Anker speakers sound decent. You got what you pay for! In addition, people has different taste in music.Some people like Bose with less treble and more bass.But for me JBL sound the best in both world .

Here is a video comparing both speakers. Hear it for yourself with headphone on. The ankers lack of treble and sound muddy compared to Jbl.

https://youtu.be/1CQo4WE0wxU

Tell me what's you JBL speaker bought comparing to your Anker's speakers ?
Thanks for the comparison vid. The Anker's sound like mud compared to the JBL's. LMAO

It has a 3.5" headphone jack input and output and two amped 6.35" mono inputs (one for a mic and one for a guitar). I don't know if the bluetooth stereo mode works if you're using a wired input, though.

I have two of these and this speaker has been available at $199 several times this year.

It's great for outdoor movies. I use a fire TV stick hooked up to my projector, linked to one speaker over bluetooth (the fire seems to think it's a bluetooth headphone, but whatever). Turn the speakers on, hold down the bluetooth buttons on both simultaneously for five seconds and the speakers link and connect to the fire TV. I do have to use a test audio clip to figure out which is right and which is left, though.

Sold me a pair because of the outdoor movie setup. Have the same and been using a sound bar which has been a PITA. Thanks!

Ok speaker, but I don't recommend it if you want it as a portable speaker. The ION used "Sealed Lead acid battery" which make it heavy and don't hold charge over time comparing to JBL 's Lithium Polymer batteries.I owned monster rocking roller 4 which similar with this ION with better sound. The monster speaker's lead acid battery died after one year of lightly used indoor. In addition, I did charge the lead acid battery full monthly to keep the battery last, but it didn't.Partybox 100 speaker is retail for $300+ for a reason. The Lithium Polymer batteries and build in light are costly to make. For $200 I think it is a great investment!
