Is JBL better than Bose? That’s one of the most common questions people ask us every day. A few weeks ago, we did try to answer this question, or rather give you some general information about each brand and about their Bluetooth speakers.

Music is the inseparable part of our lives and we are constantly exposed to its influence no matter where we are and what we are doing. Music is in every café, in every shop, even in the streets. Many people can’t imagine working, studying or even driving in complete silence so they play some music.

Many people decide to buy 3-piece speaker systems because they are easier to set up than home theater speakers and they offer amazing sound quality. Some of the best solutions in these situations are floor-standing or bookshelf speakers that can fit most of the houses or apartments because they are simpler tha

If you’re reading this, you are probably interested in setting up a new or upgrading your old surround sound speaker system. These systems have been very popular during the last two decades and the number of their users is increasing every day.

Whenever we are buying new devices, we are trying to get the best possible model for our money. However, our choice is not always only ours.
