r/JBL on Reddit: Boombox 3 Wifi or Boombox 3
May 23, 2023 -
Hi, there! I found a really good discount on the Boombox 3 Partyboost but saw they recently launched a Wifi version, besides the obvious differences and Dolby Atmos, is there any change sound quality-experience wise? If someone has the Wifi edition, how's that working out for you?

The WiFi one has a little better bass and less honky midrange. It sounds more like a home stereo and less like a big jbl flip. I’ve had both. Honestly though I can’t justify keeping this thing because I also have the partybox 110 and it completely stomps all over it. The boombox sounds like a toy next to it and it was only $250 open box.

wifi version doesn't seem to have partyboost I bought it to connect it to extreme 3 and boombox 3. These two connect to a different app. And can be paired with the partyboost option. The wifi version has the moment button. A different app, it connects to wifi to pair multiple speakers. So you would need to change the lineup to the wifi series.

Hello,
I will buy the Boombox 3 and my question is why the Boombox 3 Wifi is heavier than the normal Boombox.
I don't think that the WiFi Module weighs 3 kilograms.
Maybe there are better Speakers with more power or bigger magnets in the WiFi edition?
Can someone compare the BB3 and BB3 WiFi?
I will only use the Boombox 3 outside, at home I have a real Hifi Setup.

I have both, they weight basically the same, the more weight on the site is including the packaging which is a fault on the specs page. Also you should get the normale bb3, it is more convenient to use on the go, wifi version has a longer bootup time since it's a smart speaker which can be used as a allways on speaker like sonos speakers. Also it's missing partyboost.

The sound quality is better on BB3 Wi-Fi as it’s not compressed audio (apple music lossless) , I compared both and ended up keeping the Wi-Fi one, Had a backyard bbq and being able to receive calls without interrupting the music and being able to move around without my phone being out of range was amazing!

JBL Boombox 3 Review: A Portable, Bass-Heavy Powerhouse
March 25, 2024 - To verify with another track, I blasted Michael Sambello’s “Maniac,” first from the JBL Boombox 3 then the Sonos Era 300 and did the same with “Master of Puppets” from Metallica. The detail and sonic separation with the JBL Boombox 3 is impressive. While the Sonos Era 300 sounded great as well, there’s more oomph, power, bass, and emotion felt when listening from the JBL Boombox 3.

The JBL Boombox 3 Wi-Fi must be one of the largest portable speakers I’ve ever reviewed.

I‘ve heard the BB3 Wifi sounds a little better and is bit heavier than the BB3. Originally i wanted the BB3 cause it had an AUX input, but couldn’t find one cheaper than 350€. then i also heard that the BB3 Wifi sounds better so i bought it instead
Also i paid 259€ New from harmansaudio.com was it a good deal ?

Honestly I love that I’m able to leave it on 24/7 and play music from it without ever getting up to turn it on. Also I’ve never missed the aux. I’ve never heard a regular bb3 so I can’t speak on the sound comparison

Yeah that's a good deal. And the WiFi edition is much more balanced on the mids and highs so it was definitely the right decision

Are they the same sound? I ideally want something I can pair with my charge 5 and xtreme 3 and seeing the WiFi model doesn’t have this option?
Top answer 1 of 2

I have both the normal version and the wifi version and tbh would recommend the wifi version since it does sound better and goes louder and can be used as a smart speaker so you can keep it plugged into power and stream to it whenever you want. The better sound is worth it loosing partyboost, it's loud enought anyways as a single speaker

Standard bb3 is better for an average user

r/JBL on Reddit: JBL Boombox 3 worth it?
August 4, 2024 -
So im 14 and I've been obsessed with JBL speakers especially the JBL Boombox 3. So i bought a JBL Xtreme 3 as a start and i love it. The problem is buyers remorse because i haven't used it as much now because we usually don't go out much. But now im interested in selling my JBL Xtreme 3 for a JBL Boombox 3, I've been listening to alot of bassy songs lately and i love the bass on the xtreme 3 but i just feel like it's not enough. i feel like i want something deep and punchy like those PA Subwoofers i see in events but portable. So i want to save up for a Boombox 3 so that i can be more comfortable holding it rather than a stupid strap and also better bass and has a handle and is bigger so its better. So im getting the ND model and im hoping to get it by the end of the school year which is in like may or June.

I bought both Xtreme 3 and Boombox 3 this summer as there was a good sale (145e for X3 and 200e for BB3). I have studio quality speakers already so these were just for portability and ease of use. Boombox 3 is the obvious winner. If you can carry it around, there is no contest. It sounds so much better than Xtreme 3, which I will probably sell later. If I were 14, I would choose Boombox 3 any day if it was the only speaker to use, and portability is important. The only downside for Boombox 3 is the price. The weight doesn't matter because it is part of the physics to create good sound. I won't recommend any 200 euro studio speaker sets as Boombox 3 will likely sound better. As a matter of fact, those cheap monitors will make you regret your choice. They don't have the bass you are after. Don't trust anyone in Reddit by default. Everyone tries to behave like a professional. Do your own research, or you will get burned. My advice is still to sell Xtreme 3 and get Boombox 3. Just don't spend more than 300 euros on it.

Bro, I’d just do whatever you want. If you want the boombox 3 then get it, keep the receipt, If it sucks return it. Money comes and goes, just don’t get in a habit of being bad with your money.
