Starting in 2012, dance became a compulsory subject in junior high school health and physical education classes under the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology’s new curriculum guidelines. Since then, the dance population has rapidly grown, rivaling baseball and soccer in scale as a school education. In 2015, the dance population in Japan reached approximately 6 million, and is expected to grow to approximately 11 million by 2025*2. With dance opportunities increasing not only in classes, club activities, and recitals, but also at local dance schools and events, the need for portable audio that can handle high volume levels while still being portable is rapidly growing. In addition, the live entertainment market, as well as the tourism and recreational market, has grown beyond pre-COVID-19 levels (2019)*3, and large-scale events and other gatherings are on the rise. Given this background, there is growing demand for party speakers that add lively sound and lighting to dance scenes, as well as various events, festivals, and speeches held across the country. The newest addition to the series, the JBL PartyBox 720, delivers powerful JBL pro sound with the series’ largest output of 800W, enough to cover an entire basketball court with a single unit. Equipped with two 24cm woofers and two 30mm tweeters, each unit is individually driven by a total of four power amplifiers, delivering powerful reproduction from crisp high frequencies to deep low frequencies. Another feature of party speakers is the futuristic light show that synchronizes with the music, visually elevating the venue to a climax. In addition, this model is equipped with a new high-capacity battery that supports up to 15 hours of continuous playback. A 10-minute quick charge provides approximately 2 hours of playback, making it ideal for long events or outdoor use. In terms of
connectivity, Auracast™ support allows for wireless stereo playback with two units of the same model, and multiple compatible units can be linked together to create a sound that envelops the venue. In addition, it features two XLR combo jacks for connecting guitars, microphones, and DJ equipment, as well as an AUX input. You can also enjoy lossless playback of music from subscription and karaoke apps via the unit’s USB-C port. This device can greatly expand your enjoyment depending on how you use it. Despite its large size, the unit is designed for portability and durability, featuring an ergonomic handle and sturdy wheels. It’s easy to move indoors and outdoors, and its stable design makes carrying and setting up easy. The splash-proof performance is IPX4※5, so you can use it in environments where splashes of water are expected, such as sudden rain or poolside. Enhance your everyday entertainment with the JBL PartyBox 720 and experience the powerful sound and light show that unite you.
