It turns out there are secret button pushes to change equalizer modes on this thing:

hit volume up and phone simultaneously to cycle between 3 treble modes,

hit volume down and bluetooth simultaneously to cycle base modes in a similar fashion

It's still showing full price for me despite trying 2 different browsers...it's clearly marked as full price in my Cart at Checkout unfortunately.
Update: After failing with Chrome and Firefox, used Brave browser and I'm now seeing the discounted price in the Cart. Thanks folks for letting me know that the deal is still alive--much appreciated.

How is the high frequency range on the Citation 500? I find the HK Play 3 a bit lacking in clarity there, while the bass is very strong. Thanks.
It depends on what you are comparing it to but I have a two channel stereo system with separate components and nice speakers that cost around $4000 all together and I think two Citation 500s do pretty well against it which I was surprised by. This is streaming over wifi and not using bluetooth which is an advantage the Citation has over the Go + Play 3.

I was told by customer service the speaker can be used while plugged in. She didn't say anything about the battery except it is not replaceable when it eventually wears out. It might be possible but at a repair shop.
Rep appreciated
You can replace the battery yourself, there's a YT video on how to do it, but you need to take the speaker housing apart and dig into it so it's not very convenient to do.

I just received mine and I love it! My parents were asking for a JBL boombox 3 but I might get this instead since it's a lot cheaper. Anyone able to compare this with the JBL boombox 3? That one is like $500 at Costco. Just comparing sound quality the JBL has 180 watts RMS and this is 160 Watts RMS.
I think they sound similar enough. The Costco boombox 3 has WiFi capability. This one is only Bluetooth.

I'm happy with this one for a fraction of the price I bought 2 of them!

You can pair both together and still be at half the price of the boombox 3 from Costco. And get true stero.

Just got 2 more delivered today. These came in appropriate sized boxes. My first order came in a refrigerator size box.
That's how my first order was too. With zero filler in that giant box. Second order came in a box that barley fit the retail box.

This vs Bose SoundLink revolve +

Which is better ?
This is much better than the revolve. That speaker sounds great up close but it lacks any presence in even medium sized spaces.

I got mine on Friday. We have blown out 3 of the previous versions . The new one, at this price... is a worthy successor. We played it all day yesterday at full blast, no issues.Almost all heavy metal, disco, rap.At $128, its a steal.

BUYER BEWARE!
I received my speaker today and it is dead on arrival. Does not power on, doesn't take a charge, totally unresponsive.
Customer service is processing this as a warranty replacement, so I'll probably get a refurbished unit now.
I was also told it would take 14 days from when they receive the failed speaker to when I'll receive a replacement.
I cannot speak for the sound, but the quality of the product and customer service leave a lot to be desired.

Try changing between the 3 hidden EQ profiles baked into the Play 3. On the touch controls, quick tap the Volume+ and telephone icons at the same time (don't hold) and you will see the indicator LED flash yellow signifying that it has changed EQ mode. It will flash yellow 1, 2, or 3 times to indicate which EQ mode you are in. The default out of the box is mode 2.

Hope this helps

Daaaang. Sorry to hear that. I would not be happy and just tell them that they can get the brand new unit shipped out immediately or you will be posting all of your video reviews on YouTube and elsewhere. Go ahead and post a video to YouTube and put reviews up on popular sites and link them all in your correspondence.

Companies should be willing to take care of their customers better than that. I've learned that the unfortunate reality is sometimes, you have to make them do the right thing.

Hit their bottom line and see if that doesn't change how they respond

You should probably break your speakers in before running them full blast for extended periods.

Wow, got mine and it had 4/5 battery level upon arrival, played it for like 2 songs (at max volume) and it shut down due to low battery. I heard the battery life was bad, but man that's terrible…

But boy oh boy does it sound great. Smilie
