The majority of our Bluetooth boombox speakers have built-in rechargeable batteries that allow them to be used outdoors and in locations without mains power available. All of them have Bluetooth connectivity which allows you to pair your smart device wirelessly to stream audio, and these two aspects paired together mean that each unit is highly portable.

With LEDs built into many of our boombox speakers, you can impress your guests with high-quality audio and a light show all in one. The LEDs are often built around the cones of the speakers and are sound-to-light reactive so they will flash and change colours to the beat of the music. This provides a synchronised show which is unique and impressive.

Microphone inputs are another feature that several of our wireless boombox speakers have to offer. By utilising this, you can use the speaker for karaoke purposes or for vocal use during exercising, ideal for workout instructors.

A few of our boombox Bluetooth speakers are mains power only operated. These are generally the bigger units and this makes them suitable to use with entertainment systems at home for films and TV. However you choose to use them, our large range of boombox speakers are a great choice for audio at home.

How can I use a boombox speaker?

There are many different ways that you can use a boombox speaker for audio purposes, with many different input options available. For example, you can connect wirelessly using Bluetooth, or you could plug in a USB stick to the built-in media player so that your song files play automatically.

Bluetooth is a common feature that you will find on most modern speaker systems, and this is due to the convenience that it brings. By using Bluetooth, you can pair your smartphone wirelessly and then stream your favourite songs in a simple manner. There isn't much set-up involved, as you will just need to click the 'mode' or 'input' button and the speaker will then be ready to pair.

Many of our boombox speakers have a USB/SD card input for playback purposes. These are great, as you can save MP3 files onto a USB stick or SD card to create your own playlists, and then simply plug the device into the respective input on the speaker and your playlists will play automatically. This is great if you are using the speaker for exercise sessions where you don't want to constantly be changing the song and need to focus.

Although Bluetooth is a great modern way to stream music, our boombox speakers also offer a classic line input. The line in, also known as AUX, will allow you to connect devices with cables for audio playback, and this is great if you want to use an audio device where Bluetooth isn't an option. The line input is also ideal if you aren't going to be moving the speaker around too often and will have it linked to an existing audio system.

Which boombox speaker is best?

We offer a range of boombox speakers that will be better suited for different purposes and people. Ranging from a small unit that is suitable as a background music speaker for a few people to a larger unit that will be suitable for house parties, the option you choose will purely depend on how you intend to use it.

The smaller speakers within this range are compact and portable, but still respectively powerful especially considering their small size. These are great to use outdoors in your garden or in the park and have quick charging times with a long-lasting battery to ensure you can enjoy your favourite music for as long as you please.

Our larger boombox-style speakers offer more power than the smaller units and are great to have in a permanent position in your home. Many of the larger speakers don't have a built-in battery so will need mains power in order to operate, but this makes them great for use as a karaoke system and small to medium-sized house parties.

Several of our larger boombox style speakers come as a pair in an active/passive set. This means that one speaker will plug into mains power and the second speaker is wired to the main unit using a standard speaker cable. With these sets, you can achieve stereo audio, and this makes them great to use as a music system with your TV and for karaoke use at parties.

Most of our Bluetooth boombox speakers have built-in LEDs. Having a speaker system with effects lighting is great for house parties, especially if used in a darker room. The LEDs are usually sound-to-light responsive so they will flash and change colours to the beat of the music, providing a synchronised light show sure to impress your family and friends.

Boombox speaker origin

The boombox speaker, also known as a ghetto blaster, originates from America during the mid-70s. The term 'boombox' is given to this style of the speaker due to the box-like aesthetic and high-power output.

Originally, the boombox was a portable radio and cassette player, but as technology has progressed since it was first introduced, more and more features have been added over time. Modern boomboxes will usually feature Bluetooth so you can connect your smartphone wirelessly, and as audio technology has progressed over the years, boombox speakers are now more lightweight and portable than ever.
