My setup is outdoor. Had an Ecoxgear tailgate speaker that just crapped out at right at a year. I really just want something pretty loud that doesn’t distort at high volumes. I have been looking hard at the JBL flip5 and Charge5. What do you guys use/recommend? Trying to keep it under 200$. Preferably in the 100-150$ range.

I have this Bugani M83 and it's what you looking for and has a real good battery life.

We have a JBL at work. It’s pretty awesome. They seem to be the economical brand without lacking the quality. .

If you’re willing to spend, probably JBL or maybe even Sonos or one of the premium brands.

I have a $60 Tribit Maxsound Plus from Amazon and packs a punch for its size and price. Hard not to recommend unless you’re looking for something larger.

Edit: Sonos Roam looks pretty sweet. Under $200, uses wifi or Bluetooth, can buy another and link it in if you want more sound.

I recommend one of the JBL Flip speakers. They are loud, and put out goof quality sound. I just posted on the OB about using one in my boat. I love it.

i have the hk oynx that i have used for years. Gets loud and pretty clear, especially if you keep the base down.

my new house has built in speakers but i would have had no problem just using the HK, as it has served me well for 5+ years now.

I really appreciate the recs fellas. I’ll never buy anything EcoxGear again.

Mainly just wanting VERY loud and clear for this one. I have some middle eastern neighbors that are complete a-holes and I’d like to White Zombie their frickin ears off when I pump some iron.

This is my new setup. Not great yet but it’ll get there. The wall to the left was the entrance to my carport where my gym was but we converted that into a mancave.

Update:

Bought the JBL Charge 5 for 140 yesterday @ Walmart (was 180 everywhere else online) and while it has FANTASTIC sound its just not as loud as I want. Starting to think I’m gonna have to increase my budget to get the loudness I’m looking for. Full volume on the JBL was about my normal listening volume for a workout. I don’t want one to be max’d out every workout. Still open to suggestions. And again thanks for the replies.

I’m sure your neighbors love the loudness you’re looking for.

I have the JBL flip and really like it for working in the garage.

If your willing to spend a little more, go for something that can offer a few more features and can provide some fun for the whole family.

If you are at home why Bluetooth?

Id buy a home stereo with detached speakers. Throw those away and add some 6x9s. You won't get anything clearer or louder for that price.
