JBL Xtreme 2 Portable Waterproof Wireless Bluetooth Speaker - Black (Renewed)

I have been keeping my eye out for a good water proof speaker. I found this one. Let me start by saying that I own a pair of Klipsch KG4's and a Harmon Kardon Onyx studio 3 and a Sonos and Bose speakers. So I have heard a lot of sound come out of fairly decent quality speakers. But none of them are water proof. This JBL has about the same volume range as the Onyx 3 which is more than enough. The bass is okay, if you set the speaker in a corner of the room the bass will be more pronounced but overall its decent for the size. The main reason I bought the speaker was to take out on the pontoon boat, It was perfect. As soon as we parked at the beach I threw it off the side of the boat, It floats. I ran about 3/4 volume unplugged for about 4 hours and the battery indicator lights still showed full charge, impressive. At the 3/4 volume the speakers could easily be herd 40 feet away. If you want it louder then you will have to plug it in to get the max wattage. I even used the USB on the speaker to charge my phone. Overall a great experience. I would say the speaker is worth around the $200 range, its not a $300 speaker. So buying it refurbished is great! Still comes with enough of a warranty to check that all the buttons work and the battery holds a good charge. If not send it back and try again! That is my review. -Tom

This does not sound like a portable speaker, it sounds like a stereo system. We use this on our patio, by the pool. Not only does it fill the OUTDOOR space with full rich DEEP sound, we don’t worry about it getting wet! Bluetooth connection is so easy I don’t even remember doing it. Battery life is amazing too. The carrying strap is high quality, but a bit long. We bought an aftermarket handle that fixes that. I’ve been a car stereo nut all my life, and I know what a full frequency response sounds like, and most portables do not represent the lower ends at all. I’m sure an audiophile would say this has too much bass, but it’s necessary for an outdoor speaker to feel balanced. Even if this was you living room stereo, it would be every bit as good as a high-watt component system. Even better, we bought a refurbished unit at a steep discount, so the value was phenomenal. Best portable outdoor speaker I’ve ever heard, you will never regret buying this amazing little beast!

The JBL Xtreme 2 is old but it's still a solid pickup if you want to save money it gets more than loud enough and if you plug it in you will actually get a performance bump it will get a little louder and push out a little bit more Bass now it's overall sound signature the mint sounds fine they could use a little bit of work but it sounds good enough to get the job done the highs doesn't sound Sharp and overall it has a balanced listening experience doesn't sound too muffled or too bright sounds balanced with clean base in a shoulder strap with a built-in bottle opener for the soft drinks a great speaker to take on the go while still being portable and large take the extreme2 on your next adventure

Item came as advertised in excellent condition with all accessories and charger. This thing works great and has great sound. Purchased to link with my other JBL speakers and have music on the patio

I was sceptical in buying a renewed product but decided to give it a try. Item came packaged like it was brand new just in a brown box. It comes with a power adapter and shoulder strap. I rigged my own grab handles. See pics. The speaker looks and sounds great. Crisp clear and booming bass. I did the firmware update to 2.0 through the JBL app then uninstalled the app. The update gives the speaker a boost. Its louder and theres a slight increase in bass. The app is really simplistic giving you L&R channel or party mode not much else. Why does it need location contacts etc? They are doing a data grab. 🙄 The only thing it's good for is firmware updates which took about 15min. The speaker sounds great and purchasing renewed was good. May buy another at this price. 😉👍 UPDATE: I liked the 1st one and the quality was good so I bought another one. The 2nd one crackles and pops. 😕 It worked fine the 1st day then went to rice crispies. 🙁 UPDATE 2: Got the replacement for the defective one and so far it sounds ok no crackling but this one has blemishes 😐 see pics. Looks like its cracked on the inside? Idk. 🙁 Afraid to get it wet for sure. Well that's only 1 out of 3 that's good. I don't think I'll be buying renewed anymore it seems it's a crap shoot. UPDATE 3: No crackling or pops with the 3rd one. 🙏 Despite the 2nd one being snap crackle pop and the 3rd one having a scar THIS SPEAKER SOUNDS SO GOOD. Battery life is good. Connects performs great, bumping it up a star. 👍

Came looking brand new, not a scratch on it, everything was in the box as it should. Just bought this and took it down the shore for a week and this speaker is killer. Had a few days of constant use before it had to be charged up again. Nice balance of bass and highs. It definitely cranks, and if you plug it in you get a little extra punch at max volume. Sure it can be louder but at the size of the speakers it more than does its job. Having said all of that, at the deal price here it's totally worth it though I would need a little more out of it if I had paid the full $300 retail price.

The speaker feels a little heavy but to me equates to good quality (dont ask me why) but it does. It sounds pretty good, reminds me of a vehicle in which i had installed a sound system with good base except that its not as loud as my vehicle was of course. I bought this speaker on sale and im pretty happy with what i got for the reduced price. No issues with the battery dying or anything like that yet. I have been using it several times a week for a few months when i work out and seems to function as intended.

For those who are wary about a refurbished speaker, let me tell you, mine arrived on time, looked and sounded brand new, came with all the accessories and it works great! I've had it for well over a month and this thing kicks ass. I bring it to work with me every day (I work in the kitchen of a very busy restaurant) and whether I leave it plugged in or run it on the battery, it blasts loud and clear. I made a 5000 song playlist on Spotify spanning many eras and genres of music (classic rock, metal, punk, 60s 70s 80s 90s, various forms of techno, rap, blues, etc), and all of it sounds awesome on this thing. I work 8 hour shifts and when I have it running on the battery, it lasts my entire shift and then some. Pairs easily with my phone, tablet, and laptop. So far I've had zero problems with this. Was absolutely worth the purchase. This speaker rocks like brand new.

Exelente sonido, se escucha muy fuerte y la potencia que trae está 10 de 10

Awesome product... sound is clear no distortion. I paired it with my college JBL extreme. Paired perfectly and enjoyed music during work

Por el precio es más de lo que esperaba! Excelente sonido y durabilidad, la verdad mi papá quedó alucinado con la bocina y sobre todo contento ya que fue regalo para él. Creo que ya me la quiero comprar yo también 🤣

I use this speaker in a heavy duty mining shop and you can hear it all over the shop it’s been great so far

Buen sonido y me llegó con su correa original de JBL
