Our Verdict
JBL PartyBox 110
JBL Boombox 3
While the JBL Boombox 3 is on the larger side for a portable speaker, the JBL PartyBox 110, as its name suggests, is better suited for parties. It's a fair bit heavier and bulkier than the Boombox 3, so you won't be hauling it around on weekend trips. The Boombox 3 is also better built and has a much longer battery life, reinforcing its superiority as a portable option. That said, when it comes to getting bodies moving, the PartyBox 110 can get a fair bit louder, and it comes with a customizable RGB light show. Its default sound profile is also capable of reproducing basslines well, thanks to its prominent high-bass. That said, neither speaker is capable of outputting much in the way of deep, rumbly low-bass.

Hey!
“We performed our sound tests with the JBL PartyBox 110’s ‘Bass Boost’ feature set to ‘1’.”
Do you have a review without Bass Boost? I wanted to see the frequency response without it. Furthermore, it decreases dynamics, and probably increases distortion.
