I have a pair of Soundcore 2 speakers and I can safely say that they do not have big subwoofers or intense bass. It sounds like you want a speaker with no bass. I can't imagine enjoying listening to speaker with less bass than a Soundcore 2. I want thick bass, great mids, and clear highs. I also have an Oontz Angle 3 and it has virtually zero bass, I mean it gives the illusion of bass but it really doesn't have bass. I like the bass on my pair of Uboom L's in tws mode and my Soundcore Boom 2 (which delivers more bass than it should, which I love).

How does it compare to the Soundcore Boom 2 by Anker? I just bought one and it cuts out, sounds ok though I miss my Big Jambox (speakers recently blew)

+1 for the Boom 2. I love mine. The bass is nice and defined, and easily 8-10 hrs runtime at mid volume

Amazon has a "renewed" Boom 2 for $85. I got one a few months ago; it's indistinguishable from brand new. Comes in a factory sealed original box w/ full manufacturer warranty. Absolute steal at that price

You have to be lucky to catch it on sale though. Amazon seemingly has an endless supply available whenever. And, you would not even suspect that the renewed one is anything but brand new. From the packaging to the device itself, it's flawless. It's not like buying a used item on FB Marketplace

It's well worth it IMO. I travel a lot for work and use it 50/50 for music and movie watching along with my Galaxy Tab. The little subwoofer does a great job on the low frequency effects in movies. It's surprising how much deep bass can come out of such a little box

Brane X if you love bass. Retails $500, but you can find for $100 off when on sale. I got one but I am waiting until Xmas to open. If your want cheaper, I love my Soundcore Boom 2 for $100

Tribit stormbox lava is pretty good, not too large that you can't move around and it has the best bass for it's price range, if you are a really outdoors kind of guy, you should go for the soundcore boom 2.

This is sage advice: two speakers for different use cases. I tried to settle on one speaker that would be practical for their grandkid's purposes, that is, parties *and* hiking, camping and water sports, and couldn't. A boombox for when volume and better fidelity is required; a smaller speaker for outdoor on-the-go activities. OP, as well as Earfun and Tribit, Anker (Soundcore) has enough of a lineup to satisfy different criteria. For instance, [Soundcore Boom or Soundcore Boom 2 ](https://www.amazon.com/s?k=anker+soundcore+boom&i=electronics&crid=9EFL7JVSRBJK&sprefix=anker+soundcore+boom%2Celectronics%2C123&ref=nb_sb_noss_1)are smaller boomboxes; the Soundcore Boom 3i is a tough, outdoor, portable speaker.
