A small tweak and it would be amazing 4.5/5.0
I bought the JBL Charge 6, and loved it so much I bought its big brother the Boombox 4. Boombox 4: Build quality, speed of delivery, ease of use, price of the speaker is excellent. Only reason for the 4 stars (4.5 stars if I could select it) is that the sound quality isn’t quite where I had hoped it would be. Don’t get me wrong It’s very good, but not quite “great”. Feel it’s missing some presence and control in the mid ranges. It has plenty of low and high frequency but the mid frequencies can get a bit lost. Put next to my 10 year old Sonos’s Play 5, it’s not as controlled… (even playing lossless formats). It has plenty of punch, but doesn’t control the playback in as balanced a way as the Sonos. Very different speakers of course, and the Sonos is reliant on a power source and WiFi. But that’s my only gripe. As a Bluetooth speaker, the long battery life, ease of use, bags of power, enormous amounts of bang for your buck, it will serve as an awesome go anywhere speaker that’ll also support a decent sized party! So a solid 4.5 stars from me, just needs a tweak to the mid range and if it did it’d be a 5 star buy all day every day!

Great Speaker
Loving the speaker and everything about it the base how loud it is the functionality is easy connect to Bluetooth it’s so loud. I want to bring it over with me. It’s a bit heavy but because it’s heavy duty a great speaker so happy with my purchase.

Great sound! Powerful bass!
Recently purchased the fine piece of equipment and I was really impressed by sound quality and strong bass. It has the same effect indoors and outdoors and has already animated quite a few parties.

Great for family gatherings
I recently purchased the JBL Boombox 4. I used the JBL Boombox 4 during a backyard BBQ and the sound quality was impressive. The bass was strong even outdoors, and the speaker got very loud without distortion. The Bluetooth connection was quick and the battery lasted for hours. I also liked that it is waterproof, which makes it great for outdoor use. My family and I really enjoyed using it and I would definitely recommend it.

Amazing Sound
I purchased this as I already have a JBL Flip 7 and wanted a bigger speaker to use in the garden. The sound quality it produces is very good. Deep bass as well as clear vocals. Battery life from 1 single charge is impressive. It link seamlessly with the Flip 7, allowing music to be in 2 places at once playing from the same Bluetooth device.

Just a great music player
So i needed something to play music in the garden that actually sounded good. This is larger than alot of portable speakers but my god is it worth it, sound and bass are superb. Ive charged it once and it has lasted ages so far! I fully reccomend it to anyone who wants great music.

punchy sound, easy to set up and transport
Wow, if you are looking for a speaker that can cover you for any size party then this is for you. Just don't stand near it when you put it on full volume. Not heavy enough that I couldn't lift it over my head so it's very portable too. Extremely easy to set up and get started whilst outlasting any party. I took it away for a whole week without needing to charge it and I was using it every day. I appreciate it's not the cheapest model out there but at least with this you wouldn't need to be buying anything else for a very long time so you've got to factor in that it is a long term investment.

It Lives Up To It's Name!
This is a real monster of a speaker! I looked at the dimensions before purchase and whilst I got the tape measure out, I am not sure I grasped the size of the ‘total’ shape. That is not a negative comment but a realisation of the physical presence of the product. Very simple to set-up and also register the product on the system. The physical presence of the product is more than matched by the quality of the sound depth and clarity. I have used the speaker as gentle background music to just keep the silence away and I have used it in anger to get the party started. In both cases it did the job well. I did really ramp-it-up and whilst the volume level went up to a very respectable ‘noise’ level, the audio quality and clarity did not distort. I have played with the bass options and can appreciate that for certain types of music this would be a real enhancing option. Maybe I will let the kids have control at the next family BBQ. The battery life seems in keeping with the product description but I have not yet taken to the limit. I will test the linked/group option over the summer, as a number friends and family have compatible products form the family. In summary, it lives up to its name, in terms of size and quality.

Amazing sound!
Yet again another JBL product landed on my door step in the most robust packaging. JBL really know how to ensure their products reach you in the best condition. I have to tell you something from the off, I have been an avid Bose addict for many a year but was tempted away from them when I heard their soundbar with sub, wow what great sound that is so I have high hopes for this Boombbox 4. I have started building my outside kitchen ready for the summer and this puppy being waterproof and robust is going to be the perfect addition. Impressed that it was almost fully charged right out of the box, pairing it via BT was as simple as putting one foot in front of the other. The sound from this is amazing and when you push the bass enhancer button OMG even at low volume it certainly gives an amazing rich full sound that is perfect for the garden party! The battery goes on for ever, the louder and bassier it is the quicker the battery will drain but saying that I have yet to recharge it since I got it. This does not have any sound enhancement ability so you would have to rely on your broadcasting device to do that however I have yet felt the need to enhance any aspect of the sound I push out to it as it all sounds amazing. The last get together I had went down really well with this JBL supplying the entertainment, I set up an old iPad for people to add tunes to the playlist, I was able to get the BB4 to power the iPad from its built in USBC plug located at the rear, it's own built in powerpack is a great bonus. Lastly the battery, its replaceable!!! So should the battery life ever drop then an affordable battery replacement is available, no need to send away it's a home DIY replacement procedure.

Amazing speaker!
The JBL Boombox 4 is by far the most impressive portable speaker I have encountered. It has a really long battery life, it's got really powerful and deep bass and the volume is impressive, not just for how loud it gets, but also because of how the sound quality is retained at higher volumes. The downsides are - yeah it's portable and has a handle, but you wouldn't want to take it up a mountain. This is very much a more compact party speaker more than a truly portable bluetooth speaker. It's also very expensive, but if seriously loud and bassy sound is your thing - I think this is as good as it gets from the world of portable speakers.
