JBL Xtreme Speaker: Enjoy high-quality audio at the poolside without worrying about getting this splash-proof speaker wet. Dual USB ports let you charge your USB devices for flexibility, and Bluetooth simplifies connectivity to your compatible mobile devices.
This was my 4th JBL bluetooth speaker purchase...I have an original charge, a flip2, and a charge2+, I am obviously a big fan of the JBL product...I bought the extreme to be my permanent living room speaker and free up my charge 2+ for my basement and travel...my living room is pretty big and when people are hanging out and talking the charge 2+ got washed out. I wanted a speaker that I would have to turn down rather than keep trying to turn up with no more available volume...the JBL Extreme delivered this, the bass cranks, and the highs match and don't get washed out, nor do the highs wash out the bass, so the sound output is a well balanced mix.
Again I wanted a speaker that I would have to turn down because it was just to loud, and that's what I got, when this speaker is going full tilt people will say "that's to loud"...perfect!...my next purchase will be a flip 3 that I can pair to the extreme and place them corner to corner from each other..
