I absolutely love this speaker!

It’s incredible at producing loud, high-quality sound, but the highs are a bit muddy, and its aesthetics are top-notch. However, there are a few areas for improvement. Firstly, the lack of expandability is a bit disappointing. For instance, there’s no pre-out, so you can’t connect additional speakers. While this might not matter to most people, having that option would be a nice touch. Secondly, I wish there were a manual standby mode button on the speaker itself. It would be much more convenient to press a button to put the speaker into standby mode and disconnect it from Bluetooth, rather than relying solely on the connected device. Lastly, while this doesn’t impact the speaker’s performance, I think the volume, bass, and treble knobs could use a slight design improvement. It would look more polished and premium if the lights on the knobs moved smoothly rather than in visible steps when adjusting them. Despite these minor issues, this is an outstanding speaker that delivers amazing sound and style. Highly recommended for the average person who doesn't want to expand it at all!

Amazing stylish speaker

We have this for a while now and we loved. The sound is amazing, speaker seats on 8 small rubbers 2 each corner, they are helping to cancel vibration so compare to other speaker you don’t need to look space with nothing close to it if you want to use it with high volume bass. Retro design is probably not for everyone but for our place is fantastic we like antics and with this you have mix of technology fitted in to retro box. Of course is smart speaker so you can use Alexa, google and all you actually needs from speaker. Great job JBL

Awesome bass!

This is the best Bluetooth speaker I have ever had. For comparison, it sounds better than my Sonos which is a high-quality unit. The bass is awesome, and it extends pretty far from the unit itself. I can't say enough good about this unit. Easy on the eyes as well!

Only voice matches one person

I bought this product a month ago and have returned it as it will not voice match to more than one person in google assistant - so if it's set up under my partners account and I asked what the weather was doing tomorrow it would say voice match not set up (but a second voice match could not be set up). We tried resetting a number of numbers with the same outcome. Would have been very happy with the product if it could voice match to more than one person, however, since it doesn't we will be buying a different product.
