    Question

    How do I connect a microphone with an incompatible connector to the JBL Partybox?

    Answer

    The JBL Partybox 200 and 300 feature a standard 6.35mm (1/4 inch) analog input for microphones, as shown in the Mix sound with microphone / guitar section (Section 7) of the manual.

    If your microphone has a different connector (such as an XLR or a 3.5mm mini-jack), you will need a physical adapter or a matching cable to connect it:

    • For XLR Microphones: Use an XLR-to-6.35mm (1/4") TS or TRS cable/adapter.
    • For 3.5mm (Mini-jack) Microphones: Use a 3.5mm female to 6.35mm male adapter.

    Once you have the correct adapter, plug the microphone into the MIC port on the rear panel. You can then use the dedicated volume knob next to the input to adjust the microphone level independently from the main music volume.
