The JBL Boombox 3 is dustproof and water-resistant.
A water-resistant device can resist the penetration of water, such as powerful water jets, if it is to be submerged in the water this is usually set to a given depth and for a specific time period. A subwoofer is a speaker that delivers lower frequencies in the range of 20 -200Hz, the low frequencies are produced by instruments such as pipe organs, bass guitars, even the kick drums, and any explosive sound effects say in a movie. Devices that have a subwoofer inbuilt give a richer bass sound when listening to bass-heavy music like hip hop.
Bigger subwoofers are capable of producing deeper bass sounds. JBL Boombox 3 has a 189 x 114 mm subwoofer
JBL Boombox 3 has stereo speakers, what this means is that JBL Boombox 3's speakers deliver sound from separate channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience. Both Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 and JBL Boombox 3 have stereo speakers
A speaker driver is an individual transducer that converts electrical energy to sound waves.
Drivers come in different sizes and modes, but generally, you'll find three types: tweeter driver, which handles the high-frequency treble range (above 2,000 Hz), and midrange driver: which handles the midrange frequencies (200 Hz to 2,000 Hz). Woofer driver: handles the low-frequency bass range (below 200 Hz).
Based on the frequencies they handle more drivers may result in better sound quality, JBL Boombox 3 has 5 only. Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 has 4 only
A passive radiator is a type of driver in speakers that can get extra power and resonance from a speaker system, usually used in smaller speaker systems. This radiator is called passive because it is not powered by electricity but by air pressure found in speaker cones.
The sound vibrations produced by a passive radiator depend on its mass and the size of its enclosure. It is usually used in combination with a woofer to produce deep, resonant tones that would normally be produced by speakers in large boxes powered by AC. The Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20 and JBL Boombox 3 both have a passive radiator
The signal-to-noise ratio is a measure that compares the meaningful sound a speaker produces to the level of noise produced by internal components of that speaker, the higher the number the less perceived noise.
JBL Boombox 3 has an audio signal level of 80 dB higher than the level of noise. The audio output power of a device is based on the number of speakers and their power in watts JBL Boombox 3 has 180W, this is the amount of power the speakers can be loaded with "comfortably".
A higher audio output power results in louder, clearer sounds though this is not the sole factor determining the device's loudness. To get a better understanding of how loud any speaker can get, there are other aspects to look at such as sensitivity, sound pressure, etc.
Low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device reproduces low audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it. JBL Boombox 3's lowest frequency is at 40Hz, the lower the low-frequency response, the stronger and juicier the bass. Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20's lowest frequency is at 37Hz, this implies that
JBL Boombox 3 got a juicier bass than the Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20
High frequency response measures if and how well an audio component reproduces high audible frequencies and if it changes to the signal on the way through.
JBL Boombox 3's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, the higher the high-frequency response, the clearer and crispier the treble. Bang & Olufsen Beolit 20's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
both devices produce equal treble
