JBL Charge 3 Bass Boost

You can increase the bass of this speaker by turning ON and OFF the JBL Charge 3 bass boost. When ON, bass boost makes the passive bass radiators on the ends of the speaker vibrate a lot more. Furthermore, it adds a notable rumble quality to the playing program.

But bass boost can drain the battery faster, especially at high volume settings. Indeed the more bass you have, the more energy needed to create it. So be careful of how loudly you play the Charge 3, to conserve battery power if yo need to.
