I have it and I wouldn't pay this much for it.

Make sure you download the JBL app so you can adjust the EQ. Otherwise it's quite boomy.

just a heads up that this has JBL's first version of party mode, and not the newer version. that matters only if you're planning on pairing multiple speakers together.

the version on 2021+ JBL speakers is stupidly (and likely intentionally) not backwards compatible with the original.

Unless you've heard this thing, it's really not.

Had one since last year. Just bought the blue on this deal for stereo linking on a large desktop.
No wires, no worries.

Now, try these in a corner or open closet. Experiment; you might be really surprised.

so you can't link atleast two of them for stereo?

You can, but the other speaker would also need to be an older JBL model with the original version of party mode.

Also note that the speakers are just mirroring one another; you're not getting actual "stereo" sound where one plays the left audio channel, and the other plays the right.

Too extreme for my wallet lol

Also what's with the cable in the 5th picture? It uses a barrel plug instead of usb c to charge??

all if these "portable speakers" look interchangeable from the pictures but clearly they're not. they should do more to distinguish and classify them

I have this and would pay this much for it in the right application. This is perfect for outside activity (around the pool, grilling, etc).

Any BT speaker recommendations (with good / comparable to this sound quality) that do play independent stereo channels when paired?

I have this speaker. It's really nice, puts out some good sound. Also, mirroring what the poster said earlier that this doesn't pair with the newer versions of the speakers (Xtreme 3, etc) because it has a different kind of pairing mode. If you plan on pairing this for any reason in the future, wait for a sale for the newer model. If not, this is a nice speaker and puts out some serious sound.
