Hello everybody welcome to Robs Reviews and Demos! Thanks for clicking on the link I appreciate it.
As promised we're doing the in-depth review of the jbl party box 1000. The 2021 version,
the last time I did this was two and a half years ago, so they've changed the layout a little bit,
not the layout, they changed a couple things on the speaker but it's basically the same.
That older review that I did was pretty old and you know I think I did that with my iphone
probably. So a little better camera little better microphone and we'll get a little better review
out of it. So all of you know I love the speaker it's very expensive, 1200 bucks.
It's not a it's not a cheap unit by any by any means. For 1200 bucks it's a lot of money,
the speaker sounds amazing uh up to 50 volume it just sounds amazing. I love it, I love the sound,
once you get over 50 volume as usual with the jbl products, the bass isn't as powerful. So when
you're turning up the volume it's almost like you're turning up just the mids and the treble
there's still bass there I just wish the bass stayed the same all the way through the volume.
Still sounds amazing, obviously it's beautiful it's a really nice unit, it has wheels on it
to roll it around I think it's I want to say it's about 80 pounds, so it is pretty heavy.
Another thing you need to know and this is critical point number one. The bass boost button,
okay bass boost one is not less powerful than bass boost two. Most people think that if you put on
bass boost 2 you get more bass that's not the case at all. So basically the bass boost I like to say
it's a preset equalizer because that's basically what it is. 2 doesn't boost it any more than 1
does, what happens is 1 boosts the lower frequency bass, that really low rumble. Where bass boost 2
boosts a little higher frequency bass. More like a more like a bass drum that's smacking bass
so it's two different types of bass boost it's not two different levels. I get a lot
of people yelling at me you gotta put on bass boost 2 that's not the case, bass boost two
is not stronger than bass boost one. So that's critical point number one. You can upload 16 songs
or 16 sound effects on this up to 30 seconds long. I'll demonstrate that during the video
you can connect this with up to like a thousand other party box one thousands
uh I tried connecting it with the smaller units and it doesn't work, so it has to be it has to
be connected to other party box 1000s. I think you can daisy chain up to 100 of them not that
anybody's going to spend 120 grand getting 100 but you could do it if you wanted to. Features,
it has the vocal canceler on it for karaoke, so it kind of cuts out the vocals of the song you're
listening to so you can sing along. You can plug a guitar into it you can plug a microphone into it
you could actually record your little sessions that you're doing. Has a bunch of different light
settings and the I gotta tell you the bluetooth connection on this thing is great I can go like
60 feet away no problem as long as I pretty much have line of sight. So very nice speaker
i'll demonstrate some of the light settings here, so you have the flames which is just beautiful
I love the blues very cool. Then you have this setting which is no lights, then you have this one
which the beam kind of goes up. then you have this one where it kind of goes down and then
you have this one where it meets in the middle. This one's cool if you put the speaker on its side
which you can do it has these little rubber feet on it on either side to lay it down. The subwoofer
is in the bottom, it's got a down facing woofer and you know jbl is the king of bass this thing
actually rocks the bass, absolutely rocks the bass at the lower volumes which i will demonstrate. So
critical points real quick on the speaker bass boost 1 and bass boost 2 just boost different
frequency bass 1 is not more powerful than the other basically I use bass boost one on hip hop
rap music with his really low tones and bass boost two for rock music more like a bass drum.
Another critical point, it is portable it does have wheels on it, um it's 80 pounds so you can
move it around, but you know I don't know how easy it is take this thing throw it in the trunk and
take it somewhere you know unless you're a dj or something. I just don't see doing it myself this
thing's gonna come to the house and stay at the house. but uh that's me. Again love the jbl party
box 1000. uh it's a great speaker little expensive wish they did better on the bass at you know 100
volume. That said i'll give you a little sound demonstration here and then we'll get close and
i'll show you all the features on the speaker. So enjoy the review and as always you guys have
any questions hit me up in the comments i'll get back to you as quick as i can.
wow
Very cool feature, this has the volume that you can see from across the room. exactly where
you're at, so let's go ahead and start that song over and we're gonna put bass boost one on now
and remember bass boost one is that heavier lower tone base so check this out.
yeah it really does sound uh it sounds very very nice nice sounding speaker. It does
still have that annoying feature that I hate with the jbl's, where when you hit max volume
it cuts out for a second. That absolutely makes me insane, they need to get rid of that feature
it's it's just awful. so let's do a couple more jams here and then we'll get to the features
okay so here we go with the top of the party box 1000 here so a couple things here here's your bass
boost button so you have off bass boost one again for those lower tones the lower frequency bass
and then you have bass boost two which is more for like a bass drum i like that one for rock music
this is your little key panel you have a sound effects here let's turn it up a little bit
so these are the drums i think there's piano that's like a keyboard
piano and these are like dj sound effects
so i like these buttons way better than the old buttons they're way more touch sensitive
and the harder you hit them the louder it is but i like that you can repeatedly push it
see the louder the louder the harder i hit it the louder it goes then you got your volume up
i am down keys your play pause like normal your bluetooth uh button this is your input button
and you can see the little input options you got usb auxiliary and line in this is your lighting
uh change your lighting effects this is the voice canceller that cancels out the vocals on the music
you're listening to this will change the actual key of the vocals to more match your vocals and
then you have echo on the mic you can turn the echo and up and down on the microphone so i'll
quick show you how to use the usb to upload songs onto the keypad you see you got a usb back here
usb stick that in and once you do that you go to this and you get to usb which we have there
you can see it's uploading them here now
so that's the uploading the sound effects i put on the usb flash drive when it's blinking like
that it's uploaded in each sound effect i can't remember how many i put on here
but they have to be if i'm not mistaken they have to be mp3s to work i can confirm that for you
so it's pretty cool you can add your little your own little sound effects in there
yeah apparently i put a few in there i didn't think i put that many in but
very cool yeah i like that feature um lg only allows you to upload like three and they can
be up to 30 seconds long um then this here's the bracelet controller which is just stupid i don't
use it so onto the back of the speaker you have your usb connection here um your rcas ins and outs
if you want to daisy chain a bunch together uh you got your microphone and guitar gains
this is how you choose if you're pairing this with another one whether this is left or right
uh your base reflex port there subwoofers on the bottom again has some wheels to roll it around
again it's a very heavy speaker so there's your monster 12-inch subwoofer and like i said that
thing goes down to 30 hertz which is pretty awesome not quite as low as my home stereo but
but pretty dang low okay yeah so the uploaded songs have to be mp3s like i said okay so
this is this little arrow return button is actually to delete the last track you recorded
and if you hold it down it will delete everything you recorded there's your record button uh you can
record up to eight tracks so i'll just go over the karaoke one more time to make sure we got
that the voice cancel what that does is it cancels out the vocals if you're singing along to a song
you press this and it will actually cancel out the vocals of the song you're listening to
um so it's more like karaoke you don't have to use that you could just sing along if you want
these buttons here this is the key so this will actually change the key of the vocals to more
match the key that you sing at uh your smart dj what the smart dj does is it'll blend the the the
previous song into the next song with no quiet in between it'll like you know turn
it down a little bit and then bring it back up when the new song starts playing obviously
your bass boost this slot here is to hold a tablet or a phone if you want to do that
okay so stay tuned everybody we're gonna go i'm gonna take the speaker and what i'm gonna
do for y'all like i always do is put a bunch of copyrighted songs on there uh i won't get paid
for it but you guys can hear how the speaker sounds with more normal music on it um so i'll
do a couple you know songs i'm not going to do the whole song but it'll be the next video i upload so
you guys can check that out if you want uh all in all it's a great unit 1200 bucks party box 1000.
jbl always does it right the thing sounds amazing so hope you guys enjoyed the video there is more
coming i'm working on them uh sorry i've been away so long but uh again y'all have any comments
or questions hit me up in the comments section and i'll get back to you as soon as i can
