This is a great price if you don't need the microphone. I got this from wally brand new for $180 with microphones.
The model you got is actually different (not essential). With two wireless mics?

It has a larger battery. A few extra lights however it's missing some in/out ports I believe.

They have pros and cons to each. I think I tend to lean towards essential as it can be modified to add more batteries and a bit more flexibility on microphone options.

Looks like it is missing the mic port on mine, but both have the 3.5mm aux in port.

Depends on what you are looking for, but the JBL mic alone is $100 and requires a box to be plugged in the back that also needs to be charged.

I also have the JBL 310 with the $100 wireless mics I bought separately.

Yes, mine came with two really nice JBL mics that is already integrated. I prefer the one I bought, but to reach their own.

I have 2 310s and just ordered 2 of these encore essentials.

Are you able to pair the essentials with the 310 in party mode?

Essentially that's what I'm looking to do for an event.

I also have the 2 pack wireless mic hooked up to one of the 310s I was able to find it on AliExpress and it's the real deal at about $60 a month ago.

There is another similar set with the "partybox" branding but I think it's essentially the same for $50 more and kinda ugly in my opinion.

The one linked here is the better option of the two.

Nice!

Yes, they pair really well!

Could you provide a link to what you ordered for $60?

I just went to the posting from my order history but it's showing unavailable now.

I'll see if I can find an alternative seller and edit this post.

Edit:
Here is a different listing. I don't have experience with this particular seller but reviews seem ok.

Any recommendations for typical home use for fun.
I use these: https://www.amazon.com/JBL-Wirele...B08WHHWRST

A little pricy, but no lag, long battery life, good range, decent sound quality, and wireless mics are a lot more fun for karaoke and parties than having to worry about a cord limiting your movement and knocking stuff over. ​

As someone who scored 2 of this for $89/each brand new from AAFES a few months back, I would say at $130 it's still a great deal for folks who want a powerful portable party speaker now
damn aafes had these???
im looking for something for walk up songs for baseball/ softball
