    Best Sounding Speaker at a Price

    Lets get the elephant in the room out of the way. This BT speaker is stupid expensive. But…. If you can afford it, it sounds amazing given its size. Its has a smaller footprint than the JBL Xtreme and it blows the JBL out of the water (as it should for $150 price premium). I’ve seen some Amazon reviews saying bass response is disappointing. That’s ridiculous. Bass is nice and tight. The entire soundstage is linear. It not bright and its not boomy. Yes, some bass is lost if listening outside. But thats the case with just about every BT speaker except JBL boombox. Hoepfully with time some deals will come out. I’d say its a deal at $325 and a bargain if it ever falls to $299.

    I tried many speakers before landing on this one and I was not disappointed! I absolutely love the Bose SoundLink Max. The sound is powerful, clear, and the bass hits perfectly without being overwhelming. It fills any space—indoors or outdoors—and the battery easily lasts all day. It feels premium, rugged, and worth every penny. This is hands down one of the best portable speakers I’ve owned.

    Full sound in a variety of settings and awesome battery life. This unit has worked great in hotel rooms when travelling, and did a great job at the beach. I like how light weight it is also. Easy to carry to the beach and back, easy to fit ina backpack.

    The Bose speaker is fantastic—crisp sound, deep bass, sleek design, and long battery life. Easy Bluetooth connection and room-filling audio make it worth every penny.

    This is my 2nd Soundlink Max I've purchased. One i use on my ATV and the other was a gift for my father. We both love them and have found superior quality of sound with Bose. If you want loud quality sound with extremely long battery life at max volume, this is what you want!

    I have had nunerous brands and this speaker is by far the best. Has decent bass for its size, loud and clear. This speaker is built very well, can link another speaker to it . I am fixing to buy another one. I have a Bose Revolve, purchased in 2016 which now goes to my kids to use, its a great speaker also and turned me into a huge Bose fan.

    Bose for the boss

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This speaker is excellent if you want a portable speaker, able to play stereo, customizable in the app to suit any music genre, able to play all the high res. Codecs, connects automatically to you Regine or pc when started up, and so much more. Bose did not skimp on this speaker. If you enjoy playing music, sitting at your desk doing work or homework, etc . This is it for you. It can play very loud for its size. My main reason for this purchase is because I am a well informed consumer and I wanted something that had a good subwoofer feel to it, even on low volumes. And it delivers on every star I’ve given this Bluetooth speaker. Bose FTW.

    Great sound from a not too small, not too big speaker. Links very simple to our devices. Sturdy design. Buttons are clear and easy to read. The app os easy to use when adjusting the equalizer. The handle is strong and durable.

    Incredible sound out of this speaker. Just buy it! I love good sound without the bulk of a big speaker. If you're not looking, you would have no idea that something that size could crank out that kind of sound. It's amazing!!

    This is a excellent sounding, solid built Bluetooth speaker and well worth the money paid for it and was made better when it was 100 dollars off its usual price. Excellent bass, midrange and treble and connectivity to device is quick and easy. App helps in tailoring sound. Enjoy and turn it up loud!

    Great sound quality, pretty easy connectivity, packs a punch for its size! Bought this for summer events by the water. Tough to beat BOSE sound quality. Wish it came w/ a case, but found one online.
