The name Halo in translation means "halo" - it is in the manner of a halo that the device is surrounded by a speaker, and from the inside this ring is illuminated by colored LEDs - this allows you to arrange real light and music in the process.

The rest of the design of the speaker is laconic, is made in black and is complemented by the simplest loop for carrying the speaker. This model does not provide protection against water, so it can only be used outdoors in dry weather. The 2200 mAh battery allows the device to work on a single charge for about 12 hours. Sound quality is average.

However, the column is not designed for music lovers, it is the choice of those who care about the visual effect.

Sony SRS-XB30

A fairly high-quality speaker model that can satisfy people with a wide variety of needs. The product has an average size of 228x82x86 mm and weighs 980 grams, and has an interesting design. The glow is provided by an LED strip near the speakers. Sound quality is good - the speaker is equipped with a pair of low- and a pair of high-frequency modules, the total power of which is 40 W, as well as the built-in Extra Bass option, thanks to which the bass sound is amplified.

The speaker battery is not designed for 8800 mAh, so one charge is enough for almost a day. This model will be an indispensable option for country trips and small parties with friends.

JBL Pulse 3

One of the best luminous speakers from a renowned manufacturer of portable audio systems. Available in two colors - black and white. About 2⁄3 of the entire surface is occupied by an acrylic-covered screen, which makes the speaker look like a lava lamp. The sound in this model is provided by three active emitters of 40 mm, with a total output power of 20W.

A pair of passive speakers is responsible for the bass sound. The range of the speaker is 65 Hz-20 kHz, however, in the range of 100-150 Hz there is a drop in amplitude, and in the corridor from 1 kHz to 12 kHz, the sound loses out to the bottom. The product has a high class of water resistance and can withstand short-term immersion to a depth of 1 meter. This makes it possible to use the column in the shower room.

The backlight lights up automatically when the device is connected. Lighting effects work in 8 modes, which are controlled using a special button on the panel or via the JBL Connect mobile app.

The algorithm for the movement of lights in 7 modes is preset, but if desired, its backlight color can be changed by choosing the one you need in the palette or choosing from the environment using the built-in camera.

Of greatest interest is the eighth, custom mode, which allows you to set up to three illumination patterns out of 9 available.

The backlight provides a stylish effect to accompany cheerful music. However, listening to minor compositions with it is also quite pleasant, since the lights tend to adapt to the melody. If you want to achieve the most accurate hit, you can select the "Equalizer" option. The main task of the Pulse 3 crown is to provide an atmosphere of comfort and coziness, the model copes with this 100%.

By the way, if you reduce the brightness of the glow, then the column transforms into a dim night light, under the glow of which it is very good to fall asleep. And if you include a lullaby, this will greatly facilitate the chores for young mothers to pack their babies.

Of course, if you remove the backlight, then the user is left with a very nondescript speaker with parameters slightly above average - but it is this feature that makes the product exceptional, turning it into a very entertaining device and a stylish piece of furniture.

JBL Pulse 2 with light and music

A very high-quality speaker with loud dynamic sound and good bass. It holds a battery charge for quite a long time, has water resistance, but the main thing is that it has a stylish design and a bright interactive light and music system. The sound is of high quality - clear, dynamic, warm, balanced. The emphasis is on powerful bass, which, thanks to the light and music, is noticeable on the speakers pulsing with light.

The main feature of the speaker is interactive light and music, which is provided by bright LEDs installed along the entire length of the speaker. The glow provides several modes of operation, you can create your own effects through the JBL Connect mobile application. If you wish, you can bring a special sensor to any color - the system will scan and duplicate it. A pair of speakers placed side by side looks especially impressive - they will react to each other and give synchronous light, this allows you to create very stylish images.

By the way, such speakers are able to answer calls, they have a built-in microphone through which a call is received and a conversation with the subscriber is carried out.

Glowing Fountain Speakers Water Dancing Speakers

Lovers of anything non-standard can be advised by the "Singing Fountains" column. This thing can surprise even the most reserved person. The Water Dancing Speakers has 4 multi-colored jets that move to the beat of the music, and the more dynamic the music, the more intense the jets of the fountain will "jump". And if you turn off the sound reproduction at full volume, then the jets will rise as high as possible. All this creates the impression of an unusual orchestra, in which an invisible conductor leads the unusual streams of a colored fountain.

The speaker connects to a laptop or computer, as well as any other device with audio output.

Selection Tips

When choosing any speaker, including a luminous one, you need to pay attention to the following parameters.

  • Speaker quality - the sound reproduction depends on it.Models with one speaker give mono sound, and with two or more - stereo, in the second case, the sound is more spacious and powerful.
  • Supported frequency range - usually manufacturers indicate a single parameter, including an indicator of the upper and lower limits, for example, 20-20,000 Hz. Here you need to understand that the lower the minimum value and the higher the maximum, the better the sound will be.
  • Power - this parameter does not affect the sound quality in any way, but it will determine how loud the speaker can work. With a power of less than 16 W, the device can be used for background sound, the 16-20 W parameter is considered the golden mean, such models are compact, but at the same time quite loud so that several people can hear the music. Speakers with a power of over 60 watts are suitable for parties.

Special attention should be paid to additional options: moisture protection, the presence of a speakerphone, wireless connectivity and additional decor.
