    Wonderful discounted price and great product

    Thanks Best Buy for the Black Friday Deal at $199, compared to regular price at $349 and $399 in other retailers. First off, the sound is awesome. Great deep bass, mid-range vocal, and treble for the price. Battery lasts however just ok since after being fully charged, it lasted only for 3 hours and 22 minutes. Granted we had the extra bass at level one and our volume was about 70-80 percent most of the time. The additional microphone is a much added plus. Our family enjoyed singing so much that we bought a second JBL wireless microphone separately for $79. However, when singing, the echo is not as great as some other karaoke-oriented machine out on the market. Yet, given how portable this JBL speaker is, althought a bit heavy, at discounted prices, its worth it.

    I love these speakers!!!

    Always been a fan of JBL! I read some of the reviews about a six hour battery life, but did you know that it already comes with a dedicated cord. I also read in the specifications that you couldn’t pair a second speaker, that was also incorrect… I bought two and paired the both of them as a left & right speaker! I love the sound quality and the microphones. Make sure you get rechargeable AA batteries for the Mics and you are good to go! So glad I made this investment, can’t wait to use these for my parties!!!

    speaker Very practical and recommended

    Excellent speaker, it has good sound, it comes with a microphone that has been practical for doing karaoke with our friends and it has a connection for a guitar. My daughter plays the violin and we have used that connection for when she has performances with her violin. The volume of the microphone and violin are adjusted separately so you can set the speaker volume and adjust the microphone volume according to your taste. The same applies to the guitar connection.

Questions & Answers
  • Can I connect/sync my JBL party box on-the-go with another JBL bluetooth speaker? Sound is just not enough for my class in a medium sized room.

    Our JBL Partybox On-The-Go can't be paired with other Bluetooth speakers. However, it is possible to pair two of the same model of JBL PartyBox On-The-Go together through TWS (True Wireless Stereo) mode to create a wireless stereo system.

  • The battery will not be overcharged? My party box power cord is connected to the power socket 24/7 switched on

    Our JBL Partybox On the Go will not overcharge. There's no harm in using the unit while it is connected to a power source all the time. Our products have PCM circuits that manage the charging of the battery. However, if you'd like to save energy, you may unplug the speaker.

  • Hi can I use power bank to charge partybox on the go

    Thanks for reaching out. If your power bank is capable of charging the PartyBox's Lithium-ion 18Wh (7.2V @ 2500mAh) battery, you can use it to charge the speaker. We strongly recommend that you use the provided power cord only. You can use either AC power or the built-in battery as power supply to the speaker.
