If you've been eyeing a new portable speaker, now's the time to move. Woot is running a limited-time sale on select JBL models, including the Charge 6 and Clip 5 -- both CNET favorites for their balance of portability and powerful sound. The Woot sale runs through Sept. 26, but stock could move quickly at these prices.
Right now, you can snag the JBL Clip 5 for $50, the JBL Flip 6 for $80 or the JBL Charge 6 for $140. Each one brings something a little different to the table, whether you want a pocket-sized clip-on, a versatile midrange pick or a beefier speaker that doubles as a power bank. Woot is owned by Amazon, so Amazon Prime members get free shipping, meaning you're saving a few bucks there, too.
The Charge 6 might be the star of the bunch, offering improved sound, longer battery life and even lossless audio playback via USB-C. True to its name, it can also charge your phone with its dual purpose USB-C port. It's IP68-rated, making it fully water- and dust-proof, and it comes with a detachable handle for easier carrying. "The Charge 6 is easily one of the best speakers in its size class," according to CNET's audio expert David Carnoy.
For those who want something ultraportable, the Clip 5 is the go-to. The carabiner has a large opening, so clipping it to a bag or bike is easier than ever compared to previous models. The sound quality has also gotten a small but noticeable boost thanks to more powerful drivers and a battery life that stretches up to 12 hours. It's also IP67-rated, with support for Auracast for multispeaker setups.

If you want something in the middle, the Flip 6 is a tried-and-true pick. Its two-way speaker system and dual bass radiators give it a punchy, room-filling sound despite its compact size. It's also waterproof and dustproof, with 12 hours of playback and PartyBoost for linking multiple JBL speakers together.
