Built to move and made to last, the Xtreme 5 speaker’s ultra-rugged design is IP68 waterproof and dust-proof and drop proof for real-world durability. Floating hooks and an adjustable strap make it easy to grab, sling, and go. With up to 24 hours of playtime and an extra 4 with Playtime Boost, it’s built for every-day and all-night energy. And you can go even bigger. Lossless audio capability sets you up for sound so pure, you’ll feel every beat.

Massive sound. All day long. We just made our most powerful portable Bluetooth speaker even better. The iconic silhouette of the JBL Boombox 3 has a bold update featuring a sturdy metal handle with silicone grips, twin sidecaps, and waterproof and dustproof signature fabric. It’s been redesigned inside too, added with an improved subwoofer unleashing much deeper bass and massive JBL original pro sound, all with lower distortion. And 24 hours of play time takes you all the way from your morning workout to a late-night hang with your friends. And for sound that’s practically limitless, instantly connect multiple speakers with the JBL Portable app.
We turn it up our way—anywhere. The all-new JBL Boombox 4 is bigger, bolder, and better than ever, with powerful JBL Pro Sound that stays loud and clear, with deep thumping bass. AI Sound Boost analyzes our music in real time and adjusts the sound to give us more power with less distortion, even when we turn it all the way up. It packs two bigger woofers, two tweeters and three passive radiators, so every track hits harder and sounds cleaner. When we want to fine-tune the vibe, we just switch between deep or vibrant punchy Bass Boost settings to match our mood. We gave the classic Boombox design a fresh upgrade—it’s larger but lighter, so we can take it wherever the party goes: the beach, the block, or the backyard. It’s IP68 waterproof and dustproof, so weather’s never a dealbreaker. And, with up to 34 hours of playtime (thanks, Playtime Boost), we’re set for the long haul. With the JBL Boombox 4, we carry the mood and the energy, everywhere we go.
It's time to live loud! The JBL Xtreme 4 portable waterproof speaker delivers next-level massive JBL pro sound with amazing dynamics, even at top volume, thanks to two powerful woofers and two tweeters. Dual pumping JBL passive radiators give you deeper bass that moves you. Want to take your music outside? The handy shoulder strap makes it easy, while the rugged rubber bumpers and IP67 waterproof and dustproof rating mean that a sudden downpour or a dunk in the lake won't stop the fun. When it's time to create an even bigger audio experience, pair two Xtreme 4s for stereo sound. Or for your next party, use Auracast to connect the Xtreme 4 with any compatible JBL portable speakers, so your friends lounging poolside will vibe to the same playlist as the ones chatting indoors. 24 hours of playtime and a convenient power bank for your device mean you won't have to recharge until morning. All this, plus it's made with recycled plastic and recycled fabric. The JBL Xtreme 4 brings thrilling sound with you—everywhere.
