    Some years ago, i bought the JBL Go for 20€ (almost A $ 38), the first Go model. It was a shame. I wanted something better that the one I already owned and I'm not a big expert on audio but something seemed wrong to me.
    After opening the blue rubber coated thing, I discovered that their "stereo Bluetooth speaker" only had one speaker in it. I'm note really sure but doesn't stereo mean two speakers in it ?
    Oh and there was also a plastic duct like half around the speaker to bring some air in it.
    I have to confess that I have created an abomination with this thing (fun fact, you will see). I have added two speakers from another Bluetooth speaker and added two more speakers from a broken TV. I have put all this mess in a cardboard box, cut holes, hot glued a part of the initial JBL Go and, finally, I have changed the flat lithium battery for a round 18650 (same voltage, more amperage). I was so proud of this at that time. It was ugly but it was my handwordk for myself.
    tl;dr: I have turned a mono Bluetooth speaker into a Bluetooth speaker with five speakers, the all thing into a poor cardboard box and added a more powerfull battery.

    On JBL speakers there is a key-combo you can press to enable or disable bass boost. Out of the box it has a really flat equalizer, but if you turn this setting on, it sounds really good (if you like bass and I can only speak about the Charge 3, because that is what I have).

    That aux port makes that cheap JBL better than any of the others without by default for me. My friends and I bring our PCs to eachother's places pretty frequently for game nights. Having something portable and relatively inexpensive that can output any audio at all by just plugging into the PC is very valuable, making JBL speakers a staple of game night (we all run cheap motherboards that don't do Bluetooth lel).

    The boom doesn’t beg for apps. The message played when you tested water resistance is because you haven’t set up one touch playlist and had held the magic button(big middle one). for pairing, hold the dotted button with a light behind it that’s located towards the back of the speaker. Then it does some bongo sounds and is open for pairing

    That being said, nothing special. But, it costs 20€, battery lasts really long time and is quite loud actually. And that is good enough to have some music playing while drinking with sime mates in a dorm room.
