The speaker's size and ease of use are also well-received, along with its compatibility with Google Assistant, Alexa, and AirPlay.

    The sound is great! The set up is a little challenging. It was a little bigger than I thought it would be.

    This is an average speaker, the sound quality was decent but i couldnt tell when the bass and treble was added because the markers on the dials arent numbered, i didnt like the power cord being the on off button, i had a time trying to get the cord to stay in, my LG speaker is far better than this JBL speaker so i returned the JBL speaker which i felt was overpriced for such a small speaker.

    I'm not sure if it's something wrong with mine, but is not at all close to the others reviews. The sound is decent but is far away from other competitors in that price range. Not even close to Sonos Era 100, Audio Pro C5 MKII or Marshall Acton III.
