Bose - SoundLink Mini

The four I own are the Bose soundlink mini. Great sound for the size and take anywhere. The Harmon Kardon go+play 2. Really punchy sound and good separation. The Harmon Kardon go+play 3. More bass than "2" and a much smoother midrange. Can get plenty loud. The Vifa Oslo. Fantastic midrange and clarity. Probably my favorite all around that I own.

Go get the w-king D20 for 250 it's the best! I have the bose soundlink mini and a bunch of other Bluetooth speakers and the D20 is the best 200w rms and it is portable...

Bose soundlink mini have had mine for almost a decade now still one of the most impressive small speakers

I’ve had the Bose Mini Sound Link for 11 years and at the time it was $99 at Costco but I think their price has increased since then. It sill works really well and holds a charge for hours. I’d check Costco for some other recommendations from here they tend to offer a slight discount.

Was going to suggest Soundlink mini also. I have 2, the original, and the II.

I would always say Bose soundlink mini mk1 (not mk2!) - you can find it secondhand for about 80€, and it produces unbeatable sound, indoors and outdoors.

Very happy with my bose sound link mini. Been going strong for 10+ years

Everyone will have their favorite. I know the first time hearing the Beats Pill, and the Bose SoundLink Mini, they were mind blowing to me. My go to "brick" speaker is the Soundcore Boost (2021 upgraded version). I like its confident bass output and the warm midrange and treble balance.

I have the Bose bluetooth speaker and I love it. Great sound and bass https://www.amazon.com/Bose-SoundLink-Bluetooth-Discontinued-Manufacturer/dp/B00D5Q75RC

Soundfreaq Absolutely changed my “uppity” speaker-snob mind. Bose SoundLink Mini as well, to a certain extent. But I go back to early 2000s with my Logitech and Bose iPod sound docks. That was pretty revolutionary for me. I still have my Riva Turbo X from 2015 that sounds damned good for being 10 years old.

I find the Bose to be most pleasing of anything available in the market and did not hear any distortion when testing it thoroughly - waiting for some discount on this side of the world before I buy it !

I’ve got a Bose Soundlink, worth every penny.

Using an old Bose sound link Bluetooth speaker when I need more sound that the mini provides.

Bose soundlink is a good option. A little out of your price range, but worth checking out IMO.

Yeah, I have the old soundlink and I have no issues with it. I can only imagine the new version is the same if not better.

Flip 6 and Bose SoundLink are both excellent options, but for me personally, after owning both, I’ll go for the Bose. Deeper bass and clarity.

The bose isnt bad at all. There plenty out there that actually sound bad. Also its the only thing i've no latency issues or connection issues. Every jbl i've had has had Bluetooth issues, latency, and broken on me. With bose i've never had a single peice of equipment fail on me since my first acoustimass back in the day

I agree as well. I dont experience any distortion at max volumes. Can vary on audio sample quality as well.

I compared Bose SoundLink, Jbl charge 5, Jbl flip 6, Soundcore Motion X600, Klipsch Nashville and HK luna. I chose Luna from all. The best balanced sound for this price range. I found JBL highs to harsh, bose pretty good but not so open , Klipsch missing any lows, and Soundcore...I liked it but when I listened side by side with Luna...well..I ended up with Luna :)

I have them. They’re cool to show off to your friends right up until the moment that you turn them on. They have zero depth, zero bass, and really aren’t that loud. My Bose SoundLink sounds 1000x better and is much louder. You’ll get better sound from just turning on your stereo and rolling down the windows. I was highly disappointed. I don’t have any connectivity issues like a lot of people. As soon as I drop the gate, it turns on and immediately starts playing music from my phone. I really wouldn’t spend the money unless you hear one in person and decide it’s worth it. Because it’s not.

I love JBL, but BOSE sounds cleaner and better by a fairly large margin.

I have to say that, for as much as I love the Bose speakers I own, battery drain is far more noticeable than with other brands I own. My Bang & Olufsen speakers have the absolute least battery drain while idle; JBL is great for power retention, too.
