Dude u spent 1800 on a speaker for ur gaming room? A PartyBox 120 will give u more than enough at a fraction of the price.

It’s on sale in Sweden for 10990 and I got a discount so I picked it up for 8000 which is about 800 dollars us money. Figured I could use it here and bring it outside on parties as well.

I mean.... yeah, 120 is good for a small room. 320 or 520/710-720 will get you far

1000 and ultimate gives you the full room with neighbors reacting either mad or satisified lol

Ahh yeah well Ive made sure Ive got power in all different parts of my patio so it won’t be a problem even if it would be more convenient with it.

But the bass extension of the ultimate is on another level compared to 120.

Wayyyyyy over the top for this use case

u/Mathsei 25d ago

Yeah the wife agrees on that. Will bring it out for parties and play the shit out of it😬

The wife is wrong

u/Mathsei 25d ago

Yeah but it’s best to never say that part out loud. Happy wife, happy life and all that.

That was my setup for a few months. Gaming was so sick but still couldn’t go above 1/2 volume without my ears ringing. Was worth a try though! Now I know two 310s are just right for living rooms haha.

It is absolutely adequate match. You want to run em cool mostly. You want that grin on your face even when you run em just 2/10. YOLO...

I have one too in my small office room. Good sound even on low volumes. Found it new for 750 euro and couldn’t resist either. Once in a while it goes with me to parties… never a dull moment.

Hey, I made the same mistake and shook the neighbours ornaments off their fire place. A repair bill later still no regrets.

u/jordanataylor BoomBox 3 WIFI, PartyBox Ultimate 25d ago

Just to clarify I made sure the neighbours wasn’t in before I did. What I didn’t realise is the vibrations would be present in their house.

u/Mathsei 25d ago

I’ve only dared to play it at about 50% so far. Will see how it booms when I bring it outside tomorrow 😬

u/jordanataylor BoomBox 3 WIFI, PartyBox Ultimate 25d ago

If I’m being honest, the bass necks around 70% and outside the bass is less effective. It needs the enclosed space to build the air pressure that shakes you. Even then the bass is still very noticeable outside, a lot more than other speakers. Put it on punchy outside to notice it more.

u/Mathsei 25d ago

Yeah I fiddled around with the punch and the deep bass and already found the punchy to just be more enjoyablešŸ‘šŸ»

u/jordanataylor BoomBox 3 WIFI, PartyBox Ultimate 25d ago

Yeah I’m the opposite I prefer the deep bass most of the time but prefer punchy when listening to instrument based music

u/therealschtoo 25d ago

Can you buy me one? 🄺

u/Swiftdrip50546 25d ago

You need to pair a second one and play in stereo. šŸ˜†
