Reviewer score 25%
Reviewers from rtings have found the following***:
The JBL PartyBox On-The-Go has a warm sound profile when the Bass Boost setting is enabled. While it can get loud, there's quite a bit of compression present at max volume. Its directivity is poor, so the soundstage is perceived as narrow. Thankfully, it can play stereo content, which feels more immersive.
