"The JBL partybox series have zero delay - if you plug into the daisy chain port"
"The nice thing about the Partybox is that in addition to your typical aux input it also has a daisy chain input. The daisy chain input circumvents the JBL processing and allows the mixer to do it instead ... You can circumvent the processing the Partybox does by using the Daisy Chain input. ... If you use the regular aux-in and not the "Daisy Chain" in (there are two different inputs using 3.5 mm aux), the Partybox does its own processing that causes minor latency from the mixer. You can circumvent the processing the Partybox does by using the Daisy Chain input."
"helpful comment of the day imho ... If you input through the daisy chain there's no delay. ... For parties: get a good partybox which does have a non DSP input (so it does not cause delay)"

"I have used this myself and you just have to connect the Partybox through Bluetooth to your TV! No need for a mixer."
"If you input through the daisy chain there's no delay. I run two of these for my mobile setup."

"the Partybox does its own processing that causes minor latency from the mixer. ... It clips like crazy if the sound isn't turned way up. ... Some speakers like the JBL Partybox have their own processing going on so there's a slight delay."
"Iāve used a JBL party box with auxiliary from my xdj before, there was definitely a delay between the mixer and the speakerā¦first few mixes were atrocious! took a while to get the hang of it"
"Doesn't it have DSPs which cause delay? ... For parties: get a good partybox which does have a non DSP input (so it does not cause delay)"

"I'd say it's probably not going to cover it, that's a pretty big area if you're talking about being 15m away from the speakers."
"outdoor parties with 300 guests means that you're not gonna fill the whole space at your budget"
"Outside spread out it can be weak for 20 but definitely good for 10."

"they are quieter and not ass punchy when running off their battery."
"The JBL PartyBoxes consume so much power at party volume that they are mainly intended to be plugged in. ... The rechargeable battery is just an extra, I think. š¤·š»āāļø"
"the Partybox might be a stretch at 10 hours as it will probably be running closer to full blast"

"Hardest part is splitting the audio to mono aux left and right, otherwise stereo will play out of both."
