What customers say
The SOUNDBOKS 3 earns high praise primarily for its unmatched volume and exceptional durability in demanding outdoor settings. Reviewers frequently call it the ultimate party speaker, capable of easily filling large venues where others fall short.

Despite a high initial cost, the consensus is that for users needing maximum power and battery life, this speaker is a worthwhile, best-in-class investment.
Know before you buy
The SOUNDBOKS 3 reaches a maximum volume of 126 dB, which is comparable to concert-level sound. It is designed to fill large outdoor spaces and crowded parties without distorting the audio quality.
Yes, you can use the TeamUp mode to wirelessly link up to five SOUNDBOKS speakers. This allows you to create a larger, more immersive sound system for bigger events.
The speaker uses a removable battery pack that slides out of the side, allowing you to swap in a fully charged battery in seconds. This design enables continuous playback for as long as you have spare batteries on hand.
Yes, the ProPanel located on the back of the speaker features XLR and 1/4-inch inputs. This allows you to connect microphones, mixers, or instruments directly to the unit.
The speaker is splashproof, meaning it can handle spills and light rain, but it is not fully waterproof or submersible. Its durable steel grill and shock-absorbing corners are built to withstand heavy use and transport, but you should avoid exposing the electronics to standing water.
The app allows you to customize your sound profile using the EQ settings, manage your TeamUp connections, and install performance upgrades. It also provides access to advanced settings for the ProPanel inputs.
