The Boombox 1 JBL Bluetooth speaker by Harman Kardon is a moderate to higher power, boom box style unit with enough RMS watts in the specs to fill bigger rooms with full sounding tunes. It also has a built in power bank for recharging light, medium, and some duty phones and tablets.
But what do the watts a BT speaker has, tell us about how good it is? Firstly, the watt is a measure of how much power the speaker requires and outputs. Plus, this metric is a nifty comparison measure. Why? Because generally speaking, speakers with more watts of audio output tend to play louder than those with less.
While they do cost more, have bigger, heavier batteries and chargers, along with larger drivers and magnets, they nonetheless offer some big plusses. They have more dynamic range, a deeper bass response, and the models that play in stereo offer typically a broader soundstage and better sound imaging to listeners.
Thus in general, the more powerful the speaker, the better it sounds, even at lower volume. You get improved clarity due to higher accuracy reproduction of the bass, midrange, and treble parts of the music. Plus, more reserve power likely means less clipping distortion too, even at higher volumes. So, the speaker’s maximum watts output is a primary indicator of speaker quality and performance. And as such, this value is of great interest to audiophiles and novice listeners alike.
In this case, the Boombox, as a medium size Bluetooth speaker, is a decently loud model. Its watts can fill a medium to large size party space with clear and full music. See below for details on its power output.
