Hi Guys,

Any suggestion on a Good Portable Bluetooth Speaker. Should Have AUX-IN, Should have Clear Sound & Good BASS (If comes with Passive Radiators or Dual Boost or something) that would be great. Should be Under 2K.

Something what JBL Flip offers. On those Lines.

Anything that comes to your Mind ?

Please suggest ?

My friend bought this & says its better than my JBL GO, which he had heard earlier. I have not heard that boat one personally but seems good on paper.

This looks interesting. Can be one of the Selection items from the List. Anything else ? :grin:

I think its made in China, like most electronics, although the company seems Indian.

Actually I wanted to use it with my Laptop Connected with My External Monitor kind of Set Up As the Monitor does not have any Speaker. So having Bluetooth is not a Very Top Priority as I can use AUX-IN going into my Laptop and also USB, and also Bluetooth.

The other important thing is it should have good sound and Bass. I would have gladly Opted for JBL Flip which is my Favourite but right now do not have the Budget Hence Scouting for other Options So If Creative Pebble Offers better Sound maybe it can also be in the list of consideration.

none of the sub 1/2k speakers have satisfactory bass output-it might be mediocre at best.

if you plan on using with your laptop then get an entry level usb powered 2.0 speaker system from zebronics/frontech etc-it will provide decent output which will suffice for casual listening.

^Apparently the above system has a sort of built in subwoofer type thing which helps it reproduce bass effects really well(as per reviews).

Yes, just get normal 2.0 multimedia speakers. They usually have good enough bass, better than BT speakers, obviously dedicated sub woofer would be the best.

Guys Space is a Constraint. Do not have space to keep Bigger Speakers that too with a Sub-Woofer. Hence want to keep it as Compact as Possible.

Normal multimedia speakers with 2 units are not too big, esp those budget ones. They should be good enough IMO. Many of them are small, obviously bigger than BT speakers but not by much.

Check images in FK for that Frontech speaker suggested earlier, there's a pic with speakers near laptop, just for rough size estimate. You might get sound quality similar to a 2k BT speaker with such cheap speakers.

I am using a cheap speaker of frontech worth around rs 300,its really loud and can reproduce beats/thumps quite well.

They sound almost as good as a 2.1 Mercury speaker i had almost a decade ago.
