Feel the sound, don’t just hear it. The JBL PartyBox Ultimate is the best-sounding and loudest JBL PartyBox yet, featuring superior JBL Original Pro Sound with two high-sensitivity mid-range drivers and dual tweeters so you can listen to all the details of your favorite tracks, even at the loudest volumes. No space is too big - the JBL PartyBox Ultimate can rock the size of two basketball courts as a pair of 9-inch subwoofers provide thunderous bass you can feel from anywhere in the room. Dolby Atmos* puts you in the center of your favorite songs as the music comes alive around you with unparalleled clarity and depth.

Transform any space into the ultimate party with the biggest multi-dimensional light show of any party speaker. A new starry night effect, cool light trails, and dynamic strobes - whatever your style, the light show moves in sync with the music delivering a party to your ears and eyes.

Wi-Fi connectivity has joined the party

Stream high-definition music, and take the music with you, thanks to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capabilities. Hosting a house party while phone notifications keep popping? The Wi-Fi connection lets the music play without interruptions. Switch easily to Bluetooth for seamless audio whether you're indoors or outside. No matter where you are, the JBL PartyBox Ultimate will automatically tune itself to its surroundings every time you turn it on.

Customize your own party flow with the interactive JBL PartyPad™ on the PartyBox top panel. Three simple fingertip actions - tap, hold and slide - unleash DJ-quality sound effects all night long. Enjoy your favorite playlist or take the stage with guitar and dual mic inputs and karaoke EQ tuning. Wherever the party takes you, the JBL PartyBox Ultimate is IPX4 splashproof and has an easy-to-grip handle with sturdy wheels so you can take the party anywhere.

“Every party needs music, but to get people dancing, you need bass. With our latest and largest addition to the PartyBox family, you can hear the music while you feel the bass. We also introduce our most immersive light show along with new technologies that bring real benefits like Wi-Fi connectivity, automatic self-tuning, and Dolby Atmos,” said Carsten Olesen, President of Consumer Audio at HARMAN.
