The newest iteration of JBL’s Charge Bluetooth speaker series, the Charge 4 represents everything we know and love about JBL and then some: rich, room-filling sound, impressive durability, and functional versatility. Read on to learn more about how the Charge 4 can get your get-togethers jiving, jumping, and bopping. And then enter this contest for a chance to win a JBL Charge 4 of your very own. We’ve got four to give away!

Parties are good for your overall health

I’m no doctor, and although I’ve seen my share of TED Talks, I’ll ask you to please take my findings with a grain of salt. But in my 32 years on this planet, one thing seems more and more evident: A happy life = better health. Now, there are a multitude of components that comprise a happy life, but the more I read the literature and watch the videos, I’m convinced that one event combines more than a couple of these components: a party. My definition of party, by the way, is two or more people coming together for the purpose of enjoying food, entertainment, and each other’s company. I’m not just talking about a 20-hour group rager, although I don’t disapprove of those kinds of get-togethers either (in moderation.)

Here’s why I believe parties are good for your health:

  1. Social: Loneliness creates mental health issues and impacts longevity. A party isn’t just about letting loose, it’s a ritual of belonging: people come together to connect with and be a part of their community.
  2. Music: Music changes your perspective and transforms your mood. It improves your blood circulation and lowers your levels of stress-related hormones, such as cortisol. Music also strengthens emotional regulation and promotes benefits in attention and memory.
  3. Dancing: Not just a great cardiovascular workout, dancing is like a visit to the gym—but fun! Dancing strengthens bones and muscles, improves balance, and even staves off illnesses. You don’t have to be a phenomenal dancer to reap the benefits, you just have to move your body to the beat!
A good party doesn’t have to incorporate all three of these components, but a great party usually does. All you need is a select soundtrack and a speaker that pumps out the playlists with enough power to do each song justice. That’s where Charge 4 enters the narrative.

JBL Charge 4 makes a good time great

Charge 4 is just the ticket for planned parties, impromptu get-togethers, and chillaxing hangouts. It pairs with your smartphone for wireless Bluetooth streaming, and can even connect to another smartphone at the same time, so you can share DJ responsibilities with a friend. A specialized driver and dual bass radiators deliver full spectrum sound that immerses everyone in the anthems that are sure to get them moving and having a great time.
Charge 4 is made to go where you go. Think about it. It’s easier to bring great audio to the people than to bring the people to great audio, which means portable speakers like Charge 4 make it easier than ever to get a great party started. Gentle handling is fine, but Charge 4 has Keith-Richards-like longevity. This road dog will survive the rough-and-tumble of an on-the-go lifestyle filled with parties in different places. It can even withstand a plunge in the pool or having a glass of water thrown in its face!
Twenty hours of playtime means this Bluetooth speaker also possesses enough stamina to go the distance at one of those non-stop ragers I mentioned earlier. And because all our music is accessed on our smartphones these days, JBL Charge 4 works double duty as a power bank, so you can connect your phone via USB and charge while your songs play.
You can sync up to 100 JBL speakers when you want to amp up the sound to epic proportions, so if any of your friends own a JBL speaker that’s Connect+ enabled, ask them to bring it along. Now you’ve got a great party on your hands!

  5. I think the social aspect of a party is the most important. We all need friends and family in our lives.

  7. music is a part of everyday… whether a social situation or working at home, I just love clear, room filling quality sound from a great device! Cheers!

  11. Music is the most important! JBL Charge 4 would enhance it by letting me have quality sound anywhere I was!

  12. Music is the most important component for me, and with the JBL Charge 4 I’ll have a great way to enjoy music with my friends wherever we are! Thanks.

  13. Social is my top priority, and having a good playlist going in the background on these speakers would help the mood for sure!

  15. I feel that dancing is the most important component and JBL Charge 4 can enhance it by providing unremarkable sound quality that we can all dance to

  16. The most important component is the music and JBL Charge 4 can enhance it by providing top quality sound anywhere I go

  19. Social is most important to me and JBL can help by giving us some tunes while we are out on the boat.

  26. You have a party to socialize … Having music available in any part of the house even out on the deck, is a plus. This speaker will help keep the party rockin’ …

  32. Music makes me happy! Having that speaker would be a great way to take the music wherever I am at any time.

  36. Social; the great sound from this speaker would create great ambiance for a good time with friends

  38. For my family, the JBL Charge 4 portable speaker would be perfect for the music component. Our stereo equipment is not in the living room, but it would be nice to have music there when company is over without lugging out the stereo rack! The portability of the JBL Charge 4 would also be great this summer for the Celebration Of Light fireworks festival to hear the choreographed music. One last thing we would use it for is each night in our son’s bedroom to beam lullaby music so he can sleep (without the light of a connected tablet / mobile phone)! So, it would be amazing to win such a great prize to enhance our lives!

  46. I think all 3 components are important and they all kind of go together, but I think MUSIC is #1 and these portable speakers would be awesome and help me throw the best party with the best sound! 🙂
