10 Best Bluetooth Speakers with Disco Lights
By Robert Jones · 2022-11-03
Do you love dancing? Bluetooth speakers with disco lights are the best things to enjoy music and dancing at home.
Alright, let's talk a bit about those Bluetooth speakers with built-in disco lights. I've seen a fair few of these come through the workshop over the years, some good, some… well, not so good. You know the ones, usually bought for a garden party or a kid's bedroom. It’s a bit of a niche, I’ll grant you, but there’s definitely a market for a bit of a laugh and some flashing lights with your tunes. Now, I’m not usually one for flashing lights myself. My listening room is usually in the dark, save for the glow of the valve amp. But for a bit of fun, for a BBQ, or a birthday, why not? Just don’t expect them to replace your proper hi-fi setup, alright? We’re talking about convenience and entertainment here, not critical listening. ### What to Look For When I get one of these in, I’m looking for a few things. First off, sound. Does it actually sound half-decent? Or is it just a tinny mess? Then there are the lights themselves. Are they bright? Do they sync up with the music in a way that’s not completely jarring? And of course, battery life. No one wants the party to die because the speaker packed in after an hour. ### Moukey Bluetooth Speaker I had one of these in the office a few months back. It's a bit of a beast, and honestly, the flashing lights were probably the most memorable thing about it. It’s got a microphone input, which is always a laugh for impromptu karaoke. Sound-wise, it’s… loud. Definitely fills a room, but don’t expect much in the way of finesse. Good for background music and getting people up and dancing, though. #### Pros: * Loud output * Mic input for karaoke * Decent light show #### Cons: * Sound quality is a bit rough around the edges * Bulky ### JBL PartyBox 100 Now, JBL knows a thing or two about portable sound, and the PartyBox series is their take on the party speaker. I actually took a PartyBox 100 to a friend's 40th last year. It actually surprised me. The bass was surprisingly deep for a portable speaker, and the lights were pretty effective. It
