Our Verdict

JBL PartyBox 310

SOUNDBOKS Go

The SOUNDBOKS Go and the JBL PartyBox 310 are both versatile party speakers, but the JBL performs better. It reproduces more low bass, so you feel more rumble in genres like hip-hop and EDM. Unlike the SOUNDBOKS, it comes with lights to enhance the party and mic and guitar inputs for karaoke sessions. While it's a bit bigger than the SOUNDBOKS, its telescopic handle makes it easy to transport.
