JBL Xtreme 3

The JBL Xtreme 3 is alright for music. Out of the box, it reproduces voices and lead instruments with relative clarity, so it's suitable for a wide range of music genres. That said, there's a dip in the treble that adds a dull quality to the sound, though you can use its graphic EQ to make up for this a bit. Given its small size, you don't get a deep rumble in the low-bass, either.

You might assume the JBL Xtreme 3 is a crude bass-heavy party speaker from its look and name, but it’s surprisingly refined. It’s a great option if the idea of multi-room audio and digital assistant support leaves you cold.
