  • Looking for a portable bluetooth speaker for a children's party to put some music in a room that's I guess 7-10m x 15-20m.

    Have tried to find something to rent or borrow but getting short of options. Don't want to spend a fortune but don't want something that sounds like it's playing underwater through some tissue paper wrapped in tinfoil.

  • JBL ‘flip’ are pretty good! What sort of price range?

    You can always get two and link them together if you think 1 won’t fill the room.

  • agree with ^
    I have a Flip4 and a Charge3
    Charge is bigger and bass-ier, but they link together, handy for barbecues.
    I stick the charge outside and the Flip inside and you are never without the noise.

  • I like the Audio Pro T3. It seems loud enough on a building site but I've never tried it at a party. They are out of stock on their website at the moment though. Plenty around from other outlets.

    For linking/wifi/battery capabilities Libratone work well.

  • If you can stomach amazon I recommend this one to everyone - genuinely don't think you can beat it for the price. Welcome to borrow (SE23) if you wanted to try it out. 20m is a big room, and I think any portable bluetooth speaker would struggle in it, but this wouldn't be any worse than any others. I also have a PA system you could borrow a speaker of if you wanted to really blast it out for pass the parcel...

  • The real answer is a couple of minirigs and a minirig sub.

    More realistically, these are pretty decent and can be picked up for £60-£70 or so on ebay https://www.libratone.com/uk/products/speakers/zipp-2/
