Looking for a good portable bluetooth speaker
Budget is around $200. Read good things about the Marshall speakers but never heard them personally. Own an older Archer that has decent sound and good bass outdoors, a bit boomy indoors so I plug the rear port but rarely use it indoors. The Archer speaker has no grills for cone protection which I would not do again, makes being portable a bit of a gamble.
What have you heard that you would buy again?

I have a Marshall Tufton and Marshall Woburn II (not portable) and I love them, but they’re over budget. I haven’t heard any of the other Marshall offerings, but I’m going to assume they are all quite good. I also have a couple of JBL Charge 5 that I’m very happy with. They are in budget and I’d have problem recommending one.Post edited by PSOVLSK onThings work out best for those who make the best of the way things work out.-John Wooden

I believe the Flip is just a smaller version of the Charge.Things work out best for those who make the best of the way things work out.-John Wooden -
Stumbled across the Soundcore Anker Motion Boom. Around $100 and really good reviews although I have no experience with Anker products.Yep, my name really is Bob.

My son had one of those Anker and it was a decent sounding setup. Nicely portable, plenty loud, boomy bass if you push it too far though. I say "had" because it apparently got ruined after he left it outside for a few weeks during the early rainy summer we had. -
Yea, I bet most if not all "waterproof" speakers would bite the dust with the rain we had then too.Yep, my name really is Bob.
