Not sure if Audioholics is the place for this question. Considering i've had really good suggestions here for my system, thought i'd give it a shot first.
This is for my mom, so small, portable and ease of use is what I need. Nothing fancy. Mostly for use when working in kitchen, painting, ect.
- Prefer accurate reproduction without distorting.
- Good vocals.
- Decent battery life (Prefer > 4 hrs).
- Crazy bass is not really priority here.
- Preferably below 150$.
- Nice to have some external connectivity for music (USB Perhaps).
I did hear
JBL Xtreme, it played loud in an open space in the showroom. But the emphasis on bass distorted the music quite a bit.
Also heard the
JBL Go, for the really small size it played surprisingly quite well, and unlike Xtreme it did not distort the music. But it doesn't play loud enough. I need something with a bit more loudness.
