JBL charge series is always a great buy, With a $150 budget. I have had my JBL charge 3 since 2018, only recently upgraded to the party box series, because I wanted something bigger and with way more bass. For a desk speaker the charge 4-5 is perfect, it has enough bass with EQ added. The flip and the other smaller ones that you can clip on, are going to be slightly quiet compared to the charge series. The charge series is the happy medium between good sound and portability.

Depends on the speaker. Some of the delay is caused by Bluetooth, and some by the DSP (signal processing) - aux will bypass the Bluetooth, but not necessarily the DSP. Some speakers have minimal-to-zero lag on the aux (Minirig, Tribit Stormbox Blast) and some still have significant. For example I believe some of the JBL PartyBoxes have lag on the aux in but not on the daisychain as that bypasses the DSP :)

What Adam says, the smaller JBL series have a passive membrane which serves as the Subwoofer, but its in no way as controllable Like a normal Driver. the ones inwould recommend are from the partybox series, they have sizeable drivers and two tweeters for the high frequencies

r/BudgetAudiophileWhat is the modern equivalant?
6 months ago

The direct modern equivalent would be a larger Bluetooth speaker. These min stereos weren't amazing quality, but they weren't cheap junk either. From what I've seen, the amplifiers and the speaker drivers were built pretty well on those upper-midrange micro stereos. Just like a JBL PartyBox. Meant to get loud, decent bass, but not audiophile quality.

I second going with JBL Partybox if size isn't a factor. I tried other partybox brands in home and out, nothing compared to the bass and clarity.

JBL Partybox. It's amazing - even at the 5-10% volume that we limit it to while camping.
