Don’t get me wrong, I have a JBL Go3, great for my niche application. Love the Charge 4, but the wife “liberated” it. I have seen some positive takes around the 2955-20. If you’re the kind of person who’s got one spare cleat available up top, and more amp hours than work hours, maybe this speaker is the play.
2955-20 wasn’t too bad when I heard it. Have been eyeballing when a field mechanic busts one out. I use a JBL Go3, it’s okay sound for a great price. Lightweight
I have the jbl go 3, it makes a great sound but compared to theese it's a toy, a friend has an older model of the sony and the sound quality is a very big difference, i was thinking maybe the flip 6 but I think it's weaker then theese ones
At work I have a stereo pair of JBL flip 6 I keep a stereo pair of JBL go4 in my iPad case for travel, to watch movies and YouTube on my iPad and just to have a great compact “portable stereo” with phone anytime anywhere. I have a single JBL go3 for the shower.
Hi everyone, I recently tried the JBL Go 3 and really liked how much it vibrates under heavy bass. I also own the Soundcore Motion+ and UE Wonderboom 3, but those don’t give off the same satisfying vibration. I’m looking for a portable Bluetooth speaker (under $200 USD) that delivers strong vibration with bass, ideally equal to or more than the JBL Go 3. The more physical feedback and rumble, the better. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
Thanks a lot for your reply! I appreciate the suggestions.Yeah, I get that the JBL Go 3 doesn’t have deep or powerful bass compared to bigger speakers, I’m not really after sound quality in this case. What I really like about the Go 3 is the physical vibration or rumble it gives off when bass hits or music playing. It’s something I can actually feel when I hold it or place it on a hard surface, and it’s surprisingly satisfying. Do you know if the Flip 5 or Tribit Stormbox Micro 2 have that same kind of tactile vibration effect? Like, do they shake or rumble noticeably?
The JBL Go 3 fit my criteria. It was small and cheap. So I think a bigger & more pricy one would offer even better.
Go 3 is really amazing
Go 3 is really amazing
How about the JBL speakers? We have two JBL Go (3 and 4) and those little boxes makes such great and fun music listening!

The HK Go 3 is a beast and best indoor boombox in that price range but new ones are $350 and only the refurbs on ebay are going for $250. Another option for a bass heavy boombox is the OG Tribit Blast that Amazon has for $159 today.
I recommended the go 3 cos it was the last jbl go speaker that didn't have any annoying apps and the go 3 sound good
Get the jbl it has cleaner bass and over all sound clean I have a flip 6 a go 3 and they both sound really nice I do recommend both
