    so, i currently have the Jbl boombox 3 and wanted a speaker a little more portable..so i asked my father to purchase this speaker for me and i’d pay him back…but when i got it and played some music, the bass was actually pretty decent until about 60-70% or higher volume..the bass starts to get kinda messy and pretty bad when going above these volume levels..and for 400$..? i’d suggest you save up an extra 100$ and get the Jbl Boombox 3. Im sure most of everyone will enjoy this speaker tho..but if you’re a bass-head, like me and really want that “thump” in every song, i suggest saving up for the Jbl boombox 3, or wait until the boombox 4 realeases…

      Thanks for your review of the SoundLink Max Bluetooth speaker! I'm happy to hear you've been enjoying the speaker's bass output. It's true that the sound can begin to distort if the speaker is used at very high volumes, e.g. above 70%. However, I would also advise general caution here, as prolonged use at high volumes can cause damage to the user's hearing. For any further questions about the SoundLink Max, our support team will gladly assist: https://support.bose.com/s/get-help-landing-page?language=en_US. Warm regards, Fiona M. - Bose Customer Support bose

    I was looking for good quality speakers for my office computer WITHOUT having wires everywhere. After throwing a full day at it with multiple attempts, I got nowhere. I scoured the manual, I scoured the various questions in FAQ's, found little to assist. I finally found ONE answer that explained a lot ... these speakers are designed for use with a phone NOT a PC! It is incidental that it MAY work with some PC's.

    I wouldn't waste my money. It can start to have distortion! Might try to take this back or mail it back to my mobile company. I'm sure a jbl xtreme 4 would be way better. I know I'd perfer my jbl flip 6 ($89 when i got it and its way smaller) over this even.

    Im breaking up with bose

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

    Decent-ish bass at times. Its only hitting the lowest drum bass completely missing the background rumbling bass created by strings or other instruments. Decent highs and treble while everything inbetween is muddled. Bose speakers have taken a nose dive since the original soundlink mini. That was their last fantastic speaker. Headphones are over rated. Soundbars are ok. I think I'm just finally done with bose overall.

      Hi!
      I appreciate you've already returned the speaker, but if you want to try it again in the future I'd love to help. When charging, make sure the charger you are using is rated for 5 VDC, 1.5 A. Other ratings may not charge the speaker correctly.
