JBL Flip 6 Portable Bluetooth Speaker

[MrBoat]

My 30 something son, had some dime-store Bluetooth speaker he used to carry around in his car, and would play it at work and when hanging outdoors with friends and it was pretty horrible. It died some time back and he had been walking around listening to the crap speaker on his Iphone. This left kind of an obvious gift idea for Christmas, whether he wanted it or not.

Well, I notice now that he takes it everywhere. I have to admit, this little system is potent and sounds worlds better than anything portable he has ever had. Just how do they get so much sound from something so small, knowing the battery and electronics are in that otherwise tiny package as well.

I paid $99 for it and as far as I am concerned, it is well worth it for how it performs. Apparently you can pair two of them together to get stereo effect, too.

My kids got them too and they love them. Sounds good and it’s waterproof so they can use it everywhere. Got the case online that holds the charging cable too.

The Flip 6 is a good speaker, Oluv's Gadgets (pretty picky reviewer) liked it, and my impressions are that it's a fantastic overall speaker with an easy to carry form factor and very good sound quality with punchy bass. Big enough sound for a small gathering, yet very portable and can be held in one hand.

Thing surprises me. I don't use it but my son sure does. I have to ask him sometimes if that is that not-so-little sounding speaker I am hearing. It's loud enough in the other room with the door closed to irk me if he is playing something I am not fond of. He sits outside in the back with it sometimes in the yard chair, the shower, car. . .
