The king of “boomboxes”. 800 watts RMS and battery powered. Plenty of deep powerful bass

Eh.....if it can't sit on a shelf or be swung around without hitting the pavement, it's not a boombox imho
I completely feel you. But here’s the good part: NOW, there’s no excuse for companies not to be able to remake 80’s 90’s style boom boxes that also make 800 watts rms. Imagine a new 800 watt JVC kaboom, or Panasonic dt680. It’s a new frontier!!!

But this JBL thing is not a boombox as to how the members of this community generally sees a boombox, it is a bluetooth powered speaker. I wouldn't even say it compares to the Pioneer DiscoRobo, because even that has a cassette deck and radio, and mixing capability. That's not to say it's not useful. When my daughter recently got married, a device like this was convenient in playing back wedding specific tunes from an iphone, so these types of things have it's place.

I call those things party speakers instead of boomboxes. They're great for pool parties and house parties, but that's about it. No one is going to walk down the street with one.
