Bose SoundLink Max
Wrapped in soft-touch silicone over powder-coated steel with a climbing-rope carry handle, Bose SoundLink Max uses a three-driver articulated array and dual opposing radiators to throw wide stereo sound, 20-hour battery life, aptX Adaptive, and a rare 3.5mm AUX input for DJ controllers. Engineered by Bose Corp. (2.13kg IP67 Rope-Handle Portable Stereo Boombox Speaker) at a reference MSRP of $399, Bose SoundLink Max pairs 3-Transducer Articulated Array + Dual Custom Passive Radiators with aptX Adaptive Snapdragon Sound, IP67 Float/Dustproof, 3.5mm AUX Input and Up to 20 Hours + USB-C Phone Reverse Charging. It is purpose-built for patio hosts, beachgoers, and portable djs wanting big bass without lugging a 6kg boombox, with key strengths including defies physics with deep, non-boomy bass from a compact 26cm cabinet; retains a zero-latency 3.5mm aux jack loved by portable djs and synths.
