At Trick Insight, we love quality, affordable products. A few times a week, we search for deals on a specific theme. Are you looking for a big Bluetooth speaker with solid sound? Today, we have spotted five interesting models.
Disclaimer: At the time of writing, the Bluetooth speakers discussed are not more expensive than 350 euros at the cheapest web shops. Prices may fluctuate.
1. JBL PartyBox Club 120
With the JBL PartyBox Club 120 you can build a party anytime, anywhere! Unlike many other speakers of this size, this one does have a rechargeable battery. According to the manufacturer, it is good for up to twelve hours of playing time. Despite the large housing of 57 × 28.8 × 29.7 centimeters and weight of more than eleven kilos, you can take the PartyBox Club 120 relatively easily. Lift the speaker to the intended location using the foldable handle. This is even possible outside because the IPx4-certified housing is splash-proof.
As its tough appearance suggests, this wireless speaker can play very loudly—two tweeters and just as many woofers are responsible for the sound. The control panel on the top allows you to adjust the volume and bass level, among other things. A nice extra is that musicians can plug in a guitar and/or microphone. In addition to all this audio violence, the PartyBox Club 120 also has party lighting. Various colors and strobe lights react to the beat of the music. If necessary, install the JBL PartyBox app on a smartphone to change multiple sound and light options to your taste. This colossal Bluetooth speaker is available in black and white.
2. Marshall Stanmore III
The stylishly designed Marshall Stanmore III currently has the lowest price ever. At least the black version, because the brown version is a lot more expensive. For a Bluetooth speaker, the housing of 35 × 20.3 × 18.8 centimeters is quite large. The presence of two tweeters that are slightly directed outwards is favorable. This allows you to listen to music with a clear stereo image. Furthermore, a powerful woofer provides the mid-tones and bass reproduction. The built-in amplifiers together are good for a respectable power of eighty watts. This speaker is also dependent on mains power because there is no built-in battery.
As we are used to from Marshall, the Stanmore III has a retro design. On top is a classic control panel like you can also find on old hi-fi equipment. Use the knobs to regulate the volume, bass reproduction, and treble. You can also switch between up to three sources. In addition to a wireless connection via Bluetooth, you can just as easily connect a source device with a cord. Think of an MP3 and/or CD player, for example.
3. Sony ULT Field 7
With the widely available Sony ULT Field 7, you can blast both indoors and outdoors. It is, in fact, a modernized version of the well-known ghetto blaster. Lift this impressive device, which is over half a meter long, on your shoulder to the desired location. In addition, both ends have an integrated handle. According to the Japanese electronics company, the rechargeable battery offers a maximum playing time of thirty hours. In combination with the IP67-certified housing, you can listen to good music at virtually any location.
Two tweeters and woofers create a full sound. With the ULT button on top of the housing, you can increase the bass level considerably if desired. Audio purists can also install the Sony | Music Center app on a smartphone. With this, you can adjust various sound options to your taste. Via a Bluetooth connection, you can stream your favorite playlists, podcasts, and audiobooks to the ULT Field 7. Alternatively, you can connect a source device with a cable. You can even plug in an electric guitar or microphone. Finally, this versatile wireless speaker has adjustable party lights.
4. Salora PartySpeaker XL1
For a large party speaker with a size of 85.5 × 35.5 × 34 centimeters, this Salora model is quite competitively priced. The bottom has two wheels, so you can easily move this fourteen-kilo device to a suitable location. The peak power is no less than 500 watts. In short, count on a solid sound! Despite the high output power, the rechargeable battery lasts for about five hours on a single charge. Of course, you can also connect the PartySpeaker XL1 to the mains.
For karaoke lovers, this Salora product is an absolute must. The manufacturer supplies a wired microphone that you can connect directly to the control panel. Fancy a duet? Then connect a second microphone. You can also connect a guitar. For a party speaker in this price range, this model has many (playback) options. For example, you can connect external storage devices directly via the microSD card reader and USB port. There is also a line input available. Of course, the PartySpeaker XL1 also supports Bluetooth. You can change the volume, treble and bass reproduction, among other things, using rotary knobs on the extensive control panel. Finally, a remote control is included.
5. JBL Boombox 3
Do you like listening to music in different places, such as the campsite, the park or the beach? Then take a look at the versatile JBL Boombox 3. Although this Bluetooth speaker measures 48.2 × 25.7 × 20 centimeters, you can still easily take it with you. The top has a comfortable handle with a soft inner lining almost along its entire length. In addition, the housing of 6.7 kilos is not too heavy. The Boombox 3 meets the requirements of the IP67 standard so that moisture, dust, and sand cannot penetrate. So you can simply continue listening during a heavy downpour.
The maximum playing time of 24 hours on a single battery charge is favorable. The rechargeable battery has a generous capacity of 10,000 mAh. Is your smartphone almost empty? No problem, because you can charge it directly via the power bank function. Use the USB port on the back for this. Under the hood, two tweeters, two mid-range speakers, and a large woofer are responsible for the sound. You can connect source devices via Bluetooth and the line input. For a small additional charge, the Boombox 3 can also be purchased including WiFi support.
