If you’ve been looking to upgrade your portable speaker setup, you’ve probably scoured the internet for all the options. Things can get pretty pricey, as big sound usually means a big price. But one of our favorites is currently reduced in an excellent deal.
The JBL Boombox 3 is currently available for $380 at Amazon — a 24% drop from its original $500 price. It’s also featured in CNET’s best wireless boombox roundup, so you’re not just getting a deal, you’re getting a pick that’s been vetted by audio experts. We don’t know how long this deal would last, so make sure you shop sooner rather than later.
This speaker packs serious punch with JBL’s Original Pro Sound and a three-way speaker system that includes a subwoofer, dual midrange drivers and tweeters. That means deeper bass, sharper clarity and less distortion, even when you turn it up. It’s IP67-rated for dust and water resistance, so you can take it to the pool or park without worrying about splashes or sand.

Battery life is another highlight — you get up to 24 hours of playtime on a single charge. The Boombox 3 also includes a built-in powerbank, so you can top up your phone while the music keeps going. And if you want to go bigger, JBL’s PartyBoost feature lets you link multiple compatible speakers for a stereo setup or full-room sound.
The Boombox 3’s bold design includes a metal handle with orange silicone grip and eco-friendly packaging made from recyclable paper and soy ink. It’s available in black for $380, or camouflage for $400 if you want something with a bit more flair.
