Right now it's $149.99 at Costco, at least until Christmas, maybe New Years, I think. I have an ION that's similarly priced, and this sounds better, far tighter bass and somewhat warmer, richer sound. Volume is comparable. Both can be paired with similar models for stereo. At $150, it's a good deal. I, too, find the only 8-hour battery a disappointment compared to the ION being able to be used the whole weekend on a camping trip, so there is that to consider. But if you find yourself near an outlet more often than not, at this price, it's almost a no-brainer if sound is what matters most.
Just bought one at Costco for $99.00 on bow out close out. This speaker sucks, the bluetooth is very sketchy...doesn't stay connected to anything very long.
Parents got me this, feel kinda bad since your review makes this at mid but for a personal speaker to bring around or use in my car I'm happy with it
It's not a bad speaker, especially at the right price. Enjoy it. 😉
@@JaysStraightUpReviews I will for sure, they said they got it for a good price so I'm greatful. I make music so when I'm in my prime and have my own team ima need a equipment professional you seem to know your stuff
I have two of these. Will these speakers give true stereo, RH and LH ? I think the manual says to hold the power buttons down at the same time for stereo, but will it give true Rh and L H sounds?
Truth shall be known. Nice work Jay.
Also thanks for the w-king d 9-1 discount code. It's nowhere near the bass, but it's about as loud as my Sony XG500 at 1/10 the price & half weight
The d9-1 can handle more bass via 3rd party EQ. It's a solid speaker and that price was a great deal. Glad you scored one. 😉
Dude. This is a decent speaker 😊
What is your definition of "decent?" I certainly wouldn't tag it as a "good" speaker.
Hey, thank you very much for the review. I have one of these but I can't seem to find a remote or an app that connects with it. Do you possibly know any of them like remote or app? Thanks in advance
No app or remote for this speaker.
What do you think it sounds next to T90 pro?
Hi, Jay, great to see the review. I would like to know if the light mode button is able to disable the light.
Haha, I just watched you tested light mode as well. The light can be off :)
Yes you can!
Between this Gig XXL ($150 from Costco) and JBL Xtreme 3 - which one would you recommend? (use case: backyard/garage)
Two very different types of speakers. Kind of depends on if you want a bigger party speaker or a portable one.
Jay, Costco is running this for $149 for Black Friday. Do you consider it a recommend at that price?
Thanks!
Maybe, sort of kinda...lol. I did a video of the Gig XXL against the Onn Large Party Speaker Gen 2, which sells for $149. For me personally, the Onn sounds better overall and particularly at lower volume levels. And the lights are nicer on the Onn. Plus it has a retractable handle and wheels, which the Gig XXL lacks. And the Onn can be pole mounted, while the Gig XXL cannot be pole mounted.
@JaysStraightUpReviews Thanks for the detailed response Jay!
@@JaysStraightUpReviews Interesting, you swayed me, just wanted to triple check I could turn off the lights on the Onn speaker as well. I plan on using it for parties and projected movies but mostly music, my projector is dinky and just do it as a side thing for fun.
Honestly sounds way better I buy one I considered buy a on other one
Great to see Mr hand fresh out of recovery 😁, everyone seems to be trying to jump on JBL coattails!! I'm not into lights. Good review 😁!!
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. A lot of these companies try and copy the blueprint JBL has laid out. Many have tried and all have failed.
It's still on sale at Costco. I bought one last week at the $150.00 sale price.
I don't think they are moving many units.
@JaysStraightUpReviews You may be correct. At $150.00, it will do. I wouldn't pay $350.00. That's what it's selling for on Klipsch own website. If I was thinking of paying the $350.00, I would spend a little more money and buy the JBL
@@PastarocketS-sb7nkYeah, $150 isn't out of line for this speaker. $350 is just where you forget about it.
Will you challenge the ONN large against this?
My Onn Larege speaker developed popping issues in the tweeters and I had to return it. I may do this vs the Onn Medium, however.
Your power outlet reminds me of the movie The Christmas Story.
Always need more outlets. 😉
Do you think this would be good for an outdoor movie?
Never tried that before. I would shoot for getting two of whatever you run and TWS them for an outdoor stereo experience. I know my portable projector supports Bluetooth and has adjustments for keeping the audio synced with the video if there is latency.
What is the chinese version of this? Everyone keeps saying its rebeanded but i cant find a lookalike.
This is one, the PEAQ PPS200. Gig XXL is same speaker, but Klipsch did change two of the knobs to copper color to set it apart. 😆 There was another of this speaker I saw somewhere, maybe on aliexpress.com. I'm not sure where the PEAQ is manufactured, but the Gig is made in China. www.mediamarkt.at/de/product/_peaq-pps200-party-speaker-1921346.html
@@JaysStraightUpReviews thanks for sharing that!!! I am likely gonna return the gig. Even my wife came home and I had it on in the garage and she said it doesn't sound as good as my homebuilt speakers. Which cost me 22 dollars each and contain 2 6.5". So similar size and setup.
A PAIR of home speakers amplified separately running on AC is a no-brainer to sound better. You're paying for the battery and portability. Apples to oranges my friend.
gig XXL , hisense party rocker, Sony VX 500 Samsung mx st50, who better ?? ?
The Sony is probably the best of the these, but it does suffer from being noticeably less loud when running off the battery. It's not very loud off battery. I think I would prefer the Hisense over the Klipsch overall.
can you hook up a keyboard to the usb connection ?
You can. It won't do anything, but you can. 😆
I have one and i also have mix feelings too
I mean it's not a bad speaker really, just not a good speaker. I don't like how you have to turn it up quite a bit for it to start sounding decent. Most of it's volume range is from 70% to 100%.
@@JaysStraightUpReviews yeah, i paid $150.00 for mine and i was a bit disappointed. Imagine paying $350.00 i would return it the same day. Like you said is not bad but i do have some complaints. Main dislike for me battery life.
How's this one compare to the W-King T-11?
Good question. I've received so few views on my latest Gig XXL video vs the Partybox 110 that it's really not worth the time to make a vid against the T11.😧
@@JaysStraightUpReviews I would think that it's because they aren't comparable in the end. I know I haven't watched it for that reason. I can already assume that this GIG isn't all that even close to the JBL. That's why I ask how it compares to the T-11. Don't necessarily need a video if you think the interest isn't there for the comparison. But I'd take your word for it if you'd give a listen and result in the comment. Or even just as simply say which you think you'd prefer over the other.
Didn't it come with a microphone? How does that work?
It does come with a cheap wired mic. It works, but not high quality.
Would you recommend 2 klipsch xxl or just one jbl 110?
That's kind of like asking if you want two ham sandwiches or one sirloin steak. I would opt for the steak. 😆
@@JaysStraightUpReviews what about buying 2 onn large speakers or just 1 jbl 110? What would you do?
@@samochoa6733 I had issues with my Onn Large speaker making popping noises occasionally. I ended up returning it. I bought another one about 6 months later, thinking maybe u was an issue that would be fixed. Second one did the same popping noise. So after that I just can't say I have faith in the reliability of the Onn speakers.
@@JaysStraightUpReviews thanks for the info. I'll go with the jbl.
RAC has those
$29.99 a month for 36 months? 🤣
Can u pair two? How
Yes. Press power and hold for 3 seconds on both speakers.
Of course i did that coz the manual says to do that. I came here to ask coz it did not work :(. Have you tried it yourself?
@@RuddyVivanco I never had two of them to run TWS. You asked if you can pair two and how? I answered both of your questions, but now you state you already tried that. 🤪 If you already have one paired to your device, double tap the Bluetooth button on the other speaker.
Yeah i see it. I shouldve asked, Have you paired… yeah i tried that too (per the manual) but it doesnt work either. Thank you though
how many watts is it ?
A million and one. 😲
Probably 60w
Another SPICY HOT speaker video. 👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I wish I had 100k subscribers like Candyman. I always know you have my back. 😉
@JaysStraightUpReviews 👍✊️...I send encouragement & support to all who make Speaker Reviews & Comparison Videos. I got your back brother. ✊️
Just saw it at Costco for $199. Do you think it’s worth $199?
Maybe, can't say for sure. I will say the Partybox 110 is on sale right now for $299.95. I just did a video comparison of the 110 and the Gig XXL, so check that out. Here is the amazon.com link to the Partybox 110 on sale. amzn.to/3Q9LDJZ
Walmart puts the Partybox on sale for $199 near Black Friday typically.
@@vhalmrast the past couple of years they had the old model Partybox 100 for $200. I don't think they have had it in stock for many months now, so don't expect it.
Its only 169 now on amazon but id rather buy Hisense HP100 😅😅😅
Klipsch stole the lights from JBL?
Straight up rip off of Partybox 100. 😮
Hahahahaha thats right
You didn't review the mic ☹️
It's just average at best. Kind of makes your voice sound dark and not that clear.
You'll definitely want to use a better mic unless it's just little kids or drunks.😅
Any recommendations on wireless mic ?
$320🧐😳😳😳
eek!
I thought Klipsch was supposed to be top tier... they've seemed a let down here.
This is just a rebranded speaker, not something made by Klipsch. 😧
@@JaysStraightUpReviews well they should be smart enough not to put their name on something they don't make. Really hurts the brand name.
Cheap partybox knock off
Partybox "inspired." 😂
My philips tank500x is much way better than this 😂😂😂😂
That may be stretching things a bit. 😮
