The cleanest sound I've heard with a Bluetooth speaker is with the FoxL Dash 7. It lacks a deep bass due to its size. However, that is easily fixed by placing it flat on a hard surface or attaching a companion amp. The sound this little thing produces is impressive.
By far, the UE Boom has the cleanest, punchiest, and clearest sound quality i've heard from a portable Bluetooth speaker of the size form factor. Hope to see this hit Massdrop soon because I will def cop another one if the price is right.
The Bose SLIII is the best option out of all of them. I have one and it is AMAZING. Unfortunately Bose is kinda stingy and they don't drop prices... So you gunna pay $300 for this no matter what
In terms of sound quality, it seems the JBL Charge 2 is superior to the UE Boom.
My vote is in for the JBL Charge 2. Hurry up and vote on this peeps, camping season is here !
I have the JBL Charge, and I love the sound from it. It gets loud, without distortion. I miss the speakerphone option, but the fact it's also an external battery pack is an acceptable tradeoff.
