[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Partybox Encore sounds amazing. Connected my phone with Bluetooth and played some songs for my kids and the loved it. Downloaded the Partybox app to change the lights on the speaker. I haven’t synced this with another Partybox, but looking forward to doing that in the future. I would recommend this for anyone looking for more sound than some of the smaller pill shaped Bluetooth speakers.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Partybox Encore is hands down the best boombox we have heard in years. We play a lot of Pickleball, we hold parties at the lake, and our kids love karaoke. There has been so many products at the Pickleball courts as people always try to bring their speakers that everyone can hear. The Partybox does exactly that and more. I will start off describing the Partybox itself. It is fairly light for it's size and for the amount of sound it puts out, you would think it would be a tank. The handle to carry the box is ergonomically correct and very comfortable. The power, lights, bluetooth, and bass boost are easy to depress and work flawlessly. The volume knob turns easily and so do the Karaoke knobs. The Aux In and USB are nicely covered from the elements by a rubberized cover as well as the power cord adapter area. The Partybox sits securely on the ground and doesn't vibrate when the music is turned up. The lights are an added touch. The LED blinking lights are bright and strobe in a nice pattern. There is way to many options you can select for how the colored lights and LED strobe lights flicker at a certain pattern. The colors are bright and vibrant!! At night, the lights are a great addition to this music box. The included 2 metal, high quality microphones transmit to the music box with ease and they sound very clear. We downloaded the app so when a song is played you get to read the lyrics. Adjusting the eq for the karaoke is a nice added touch and helps with adjusting deep or high voices with the type of music being played. Now for the sound this box puts out....it is crazy good how nice this little box sounds. The bass boost adds to the deep tone or leaving it without bass boost the speaker is very clear with high and low frequency sounds. I kid you not when I say the sound is impressive!!! Over the last 4 days I have take the Partybox to the Pickleball courts, all the players now expect me to play music from this nice system. The compliments we now get make the other people that use to bring their speakers envious of our JBL Partybox Encore. We continue to be amazed at the sound quality and portability of such a great sounding system. There is one thing I wish this box had incorporated with its' design. The power cord doesn't have a place to store it. Having a nice light storage area with the rubberized cover would have allowed owners to no lose or misplace the cord since there isn't a dedicated storage place for it. To keep it with the box we roll it up and push it under neath the handle. This works but a storage place would be better. Everything else about this box we down right LOVE!!!!

The Encore speaker is the star and perfect for my need as amateur, loud to fill a room and good sound quality. However, The microphones are too sensitive, which generates an unpleasant echo sound constantly as if being tapped on the head of the microphone . For example, just changing hands or loosing or tightening a finger grip on the base of the microphone, it generates an echo sound similar to being tapped a finger on the head of the microphone. In other words, unintentional touch on any where on the microphone from head to tale generates an echo sound. So the microphones with the Encore set become an unpleasant experience.

I’ve never been so happy with my purchase. Speaker’s sound is very nice especially with the bass boost on. Microphones are pretty great as well. They are heavy and very well made. Does not look cheap. Battery lasts pretty good if you don’t need the lights on. A bit heavy to carry around though, but not an issue for us. Overall, great purchase. JBL makes the best speakers! (In my opinion)

The speaker sounds remarkable, considering it’s compact size. I have now paired it with an Encore essential and love the full sound of the pair. The only negative comment is that the heavy metal microphone housings transmit handling noise to the mic element, changing the mic from hand to hand can be heard clearly through the speaker, even with mic level set to approx mid range.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First day I unbox this speaker, me & my wife ended up doing Karaoke for 3 hours straight. This is a great quality speaker, it is almost unbelievable to experience such a great sound from a portable speaker. But the icing on the cake is the mics, oh my god every household needs this speaker, it is such a fun thing. The mics quality is exception for a wireless microphone and so well built. This is one stop shop for a portable speaker with a great bass & Karaoke machine.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This music box is super loud with bass beyond many, used it in my house and had my whole house bassed out with beautiful sounds with my lights off it was amazing lights coming from the speaker. I love that i can control everything from the app

This is the most amazing speaker, but I don't expect anything less from JBL! It is lightweight and sure packs a punch in sound which is crisp (great bass and treble)! It is also wireless and splash-proof which means that you can use it is very versatile for all of your music needs. I also purchased a Monster "Rockin Roller 360" and there is no comparison in sound, size, and portability. I am returning the Monster it is a brick and the sound is just awful, very quiet and terrible bass/treble! This JBL also includes 2 wireless microphones compared to Monster's 1 wired microphone. Purchase this JBL and you will not be disappointed!
