So this is the Soundboks Gen 4, its a super durable bluetooth speaker that sounds better and is more power efficient than its predecessor. But today we’re going to see how the Soundboks Gen 4 stacks up to both the JBL Partybox 310 and the Sony XV800. Two super popular portable bluetooth speakers… but these aren’t as powerful or as durable… but let's see if it's worth it to you to upgrade.

I have heard bot the soundboks and the JBL 310 in person. In my opinion even though the soundboks may be louder the JBLs bass feature sounds much more fuller. Not to mention for the price of one soundboks you could get 2 jbl 310 and have the stereo feature. In my case I would still go with the JBL 310.

wow the SoundBoks is on a whole level on its own

It will blow your mind with the deep bass an audiophile quality .

After hearing the Soundboks 4 in person, I want to use it for a pirate radio style setup during music festivals

This is a unfair comparison due to price, it would be better to compare the Soundboks to a JBL PB 710

In my living room plays two JBL PARTYBOX 310s and four JBL PARTYBOX 110 and they all are daisy chained the sound is amazing when i play music at 75 prozent all my Neighbours runs out they thinks that was Earthquake 😅

[allanvanmuks]

I'd go with the soundboks, thanks for the insight

[papayspeanut]

The soundboks is louder that’s it, for those who want to hear and feel the music Jbl is still the better choice. Of course price is a huge gap too

The Soundboks and the JBL / Sony serve completely different markets. The Soundboks are meant for professional event / DJ usage, while the JBL and SONY are meant for residential usage, such as house parties and karaoke night @ grandmas - not much else. Try and take them to a park or a beach - they will get WRECKED, cracked, wheels will bust, woofers will be destroyed. We use the Soundboks for corporate events, DJs, even weddings ceremonies / parties that take place on beaches. They are rugged enough to handle the rigors of event production life, and with the swapable batteries, we never have to worry about losing power. The Soundboks has professional features which are non-existent on the JBL and SONY, such as the XLR / TRS inputs. What's that you ask? Exactly.

Pretty lights... we don't have pretty lights inside our speakers at a concert. We want pretty lights, we put a bunch of moving heads, lasers, and uplights around the thing.

This is why the Soundboks has such a higher price tag. It's NOT meant for residential usage and it's NOT competing the pretty lights speaker boxes. Its trying to compete with the rugged speakers from QSC, EV, Turbosound, and yes JBL Pro, which are in the $800+ range, but they are not battery operated. Take a look a the JBL PRX 912 to understand the PRO LEVEL version of JBLs speaker line. You'll notice the absent pretty lights and "echo" for your voice for Karaoke. So from that viewpoint, the Soundboks are priced fairly @ $900. We own 12 of them in our inventory, and they are constantly rented almost daily in the summer. They come back with sand all over, mud, smelling like beer, all kinds of funkiness, and guess what... we just wash them down, dry them up, test them, and ready for the customer to abuse them.

You could get 2 partybox 310s for less than the cost of 1 soundboks so it would be more reasonable to test 2 pb 310s against 1 soundboks. In that case the pb 310s would monster the soundboks overall, and not just in bass, because 1 pb310 already has more bass than 1 soundboks.

Soundbox sounds loud and good!!! Jbl bass though ❤

[producer_ben]

For the price of a soundboks you could get a 2.1 sound system and still have change, plus it would look more visually appealing.

[marcomunoz]

This is nice and all but when is the PartyBox ultimate review coming!?

[Timmorrisjr]

I mean, I’d hope the SoundBoks would sound better… considering it’s twice the price of the other two. Not really a level comparison.

[SmkarN]

Can you pair a soundboks speaker with a jbl partybox 1000 with no delay? I have a soundboks and was thinking to buy a used partybox 1000

[donshreeves]

Can you leave it plugged in all the time?! Gen 3or4 and which should I buy?? Are they going out of business??

[JillScott-vt]

You can connect 5 SOUNDBOKS Speakers together wirelessly, NOT ONE as stated.

I got my partybox 310 for 380 on sale at best buy. The jbl has alot better bass and is plenty loud for me. At that price i could go pay 500 for another partybox amd have tws and much better sound then 1 soundboks. And still save hundreds.
