JBL REMOVED MULTIPLE DEVICES CONNECTED!

After being a fan of the Boombox 2 , this was a huge mistake! JBL removed multiple device connections, which means that you have to manually disconnect from the other device to get your current one working, biggest mistake updating firmware, we pay the premium price for a smooth eco-system, I am putting this horrible device back up for sale, not worth it!

Overwhelming thump
3 out of 5 stars
CNSpotz - 1 month ago
originally posted on jbl.com
I really wanted to love this or even like it. If you like thumping bass, the Boombox 3 will do that. But the bass completely overwhelms the mids and highs. And what I do hear of those mids and highs doesn't sound that great. Where are those guitar solos and soaring vocals I know so well from my playlist? Buried back there under a layer of booming bass. Adjusting the EQ from the app just seems to make the mids/highs sound worse when you lower the bass. Playing mp3s with the aux cord off my laptop does sound better than streaming from a Bluetooth connection, so I'm keeping it for the party punch portability, but I grimace every time when I barely hear something I know should be on top.

Great Bass. TERRIBLE BASE

The base of the unit is aweful. Always tips over and rolls around. Serious design flaw.
Great sound. A little heavy to be a true portable

It's a great sound system fills the whole room. We use it for a dance class and some social events. It's heavy and not somthing you want to carry far 6.7kg The only issue is the app it would be nice to be able to turn the levels up and down a bit more as in small rooms the base is to much. Also the app keeps opening over the top of other apps even when it's already connected and keeps trying to connect but that's an app issue

So far the output is real and distinct. The noise reduction is great and distortion level is spectacular It delivers the music exactly as produced but with amplification and all the clear components
Fantastic, but something's not right.

I got this speaker for Christmas last year (2023) and this thing has been AMAZING. - Great build quality - SUPERB sound - Great battery life (as long as you're responsible with EQs and volume) But there are a few gripes I have with this speaker. And this is not just with the bb3. I've seen this happen on my XTREME 2 I used to have, the boombox 2, and some other speakers that have the same driver setup (driver(s) out the front, dual radiators on the side). ### My Main Issue ### The radiators flex aggressively when playing at high volumes and in warmer temperatures. It's probably hard to solve this without creating a hole inside for air pressure which not only makes it non IP67 water/dust resistant, but also would make frequency response poorer with the radiators. But the air inside of the speaker is trapped due to the sealed design, and when the drivers and battery are hard at work, it heats up, i.e. expands. This pushes the radiators out, as if they're about to explode. Then following the slow expansion of air inside, the radiators shake violently, distorting bass and rocking the speaker back and forth. I'd imagine it's not good for the rubber holding everything together and the subwoofer in the center being gyrated in and out at velocities that it's not in control of. Right now the thing is sitting on my bedroom floor. After playing music with lots of bass (smooth sine waves, constantly, 45-55-65 hz), they look inset now! And when lightly pushing on them they barely move. So these radiators are being forcibly held and pushed out, and in. I really hope the engineers saw this and knew that it would be like this. If anyone working for JBL sees this, I don't need a replacement, but I'd like the peace of mind that this is somewhat normal. This guy on reddit seems to be experiencing the same issue: https://www.reddit.com/r/JBL/comments/yrdls0/boombox_3_trapping_air_passive_radiators_getting/ (For people reading the reddit post, don't listen to the comments. No there's no air escape hole but you get the point). I've also included a picture of my inset radiators, just look at those and tell me they don't look stuck in.
Nice sound, struggles in the sun

The sound on this speaker is big and detailed for the most part. That part is pretty awesome. However, when sitting in the sun, the metal handle absorbs A LOT of heat. Because of this, the speaker gets really hot in the sun. And it doesn’t have to be that hot, it has happened to me in mid 70s weather. When it gets too hot, the passive radiators on the side expand like a balloon. It affects the sound quality and the bass pretty dramatically. Because of this, you’re better off using the speaker in the shade or cooler areas. Which is interesting because of all the advertising of it sitting in the sun, hmmm… Also, I’m no engineer, but I feel like the racetrack subwoofer on the front should maybe be on the back of the speaker or something, so that the vibrations can resonate off the walls when placed in front of one? And then the tweeters probably shouldn’t be stacked directly on top of the mid speakers? Idk, just a suggestion I guess. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy the sound and looks of this speaker in general. I just feel that when it comes to tech specs this speaker could be a little better with its size and space available on it. And not to mention the price…

I got the boombox 3 for Father's day and love the full range sound it has at lower volumes. Perfect for small yards with close neibors you don't want to bother. It will play loud and rock too.

I bought the Boombox 3 several months ago and I absolutely LOVE IT. The sound quality paired with the massive bass on this thing is a beast! I highly recommend buying one for yourself if you haven’t already!
24hr is misleading. More like 2hrs if lucky.

Not 24hr charge. I recently purchased one for my husbands birthday. We have used it twice and out of those times it only plays 2hrs and then dies, completely. Sounds is amazing, great design/build. However, I am highly disappointed in how mine is not lasting on a full charge.

Very good Full On Sound from The BoomBox3 Having recently purchased both the Charge5 & Xtreme3 in the last month or so and being so impressed with the build quality, sound & the user friendly JBL ap - I decided to also purchase this Boombox3 - and must say am also most pleased with it - The sound while not hugely louder than the Xtreme and Charge5 - the Sound is very rich & full on and well worth the purchase.
