Hi everyone,
I'd like to buy a Bluetooth speaker. As I'm based out of Dubai, I’m leaning towards brands like Sonos, JBL and Devialet for local warranty and support.
The models I am thinking of:
-Sonos Move 2 (around $570 in Dubai)
-JBL Authentics 300 Smart (around $600 in Dubai)
There are no test models to try before purchasing. Here are a few key factors to consider:
1. Sound quality is top priority.
2. The speaker must be battery-powered as I plan on using it in my garden where there's no access to power. However, the size and portability of the speaker aren't major concerns for me.
3. I mainly use Apple devices, so a speaker with AirPlay 2 support would be a bonus, but it's not a necessity.
4. Budget around $600.
So which is better, the Sonos Move 2, or JBL Authentics 300 Smart, or something else I did not consider?
Final note, I also found the Devialet Mania in a local store, around $850 in Dubai, but it is so expensive, what's so special about it? Should I reconsider the budget?
Thanks in advance for your help!
