The JBL Xtreme 3 Speaker Is 39% Off on Amazon Right Now

The JBL Xtreme 3 might not be the brand’s newest release, but it remains one of the most reliable portable outdoor speakers on the market with heavy bass and powerful sound, a rugged build designed to withstand the elements, and the ability to link with other JBL speakers for an even more epic listening experience. And right now, the JBL Xtreme 3 speaker is down 39% on Amazon at 199.98 (originally $329.95).

Available in three colors, the Xtreme 3 weighs 4.4 lbs and comes with built-in handles and a removable strap to make it even more portable and prevent it from sliding around on your shoulder. Its IP67 rating means it can be submerged in up to one meter of water for 30 minutes, making it safe for poolside hangs and beach days, or rinsing off after dusty adventures. 

Controls sit on the top and house all the usual functions like power, Bluetooth pairing, volume, and pause/play, as well as PartyBoost, which lets you connect them to other compatible speakers. The companion app is fairly minimal, offering firmware updates and basic audio feedback controls, but no adjustable EQ, which is the one downside at this price point (though the $130 discount does sweeten the deal); it also lacks a speakerphone function.

Battery life lasts up to 15 hours, depending on volume level, and the Xtreme 3 supports AAC and SBC codecs. With 4 drivers and dual passive radiators, the audio quality on this speaker is impressive.  According to PCMag, which gives it an  Editors’ Choice award, it has “powerful low-frequency depth,” while DSP prevents distortion, even if it comes at the cost of slightly tempered bass. 

If you’re looking for a tough, waterproof speaker that’ll last through your adventures and deliver loud, bass-heavy audio both indoors and outdoors, the JBL Xtreme 3 is a solid choice made even more appealing at a 39% discount just in time for warmer weather.
