r/WirelessSpeakers

I was looking into a speaker bigger and fuller than my current Anker Soundcore Motion 300 to use for slowpitch softball dugout jams. I do not want a giant party speaker, nor do I have a lot of money to throw at it.

Today, I saw the Sony Ult 3 and Ult 5 on sale for $137 and $188 respectively. The Ult 3 in particular caught my eye as a solid upgrade from my Anker speaker, but the Ult 5 is still portable enough to where I could consider it.

I don't particularly want to spend $188, but if it is a much better deal than anything I could get at that price I would consider it. Otherwise, the Ult 3 at $137 seems like the better deal for my use case.

Great deal, or look elsewhere? I don't need it to go super duper high volume, as it is mainly for the dugout.

Hi! Not an audiophile, but I like good sound. The Marshall Stanmore is $250 right now. I have been going down the wormhole too long and need sound in here. It is the first time in a while living alone and music would be nice. It's a loft style old factory and has been exceptionally quiet. I do not want the neighbors to hate me. I don't like bass heavy music anyway... it's not like I'm listening to Drake. I hate those heavy on bass JBL, and Bose options out there, and never liked subs. Other option: I'd have to spend more money, but a pair of good bookshelf speakers and a used or inexpensive amp/receiver would be better. It's just one and done with the bluetooth speaker though. Klipsch RP-600m are $350 plus an amp. I think the 600m's would sound nice at a low volume, and no sub.
