Are you going to compare the flip 6 to the motion plus.

Hi I just want to thank you. This is by far one of the best reviews! Unlike others, you made a real analisys of what actually comes out of the speaker. Messuring and explaining how to interpret the results. We need more speakerreviews done like this!

Tested both and flip 6 was the clear winner. Didn‘t expect but at low-mid volumes it sounded much better and even got more bass. It’s mich more portable and the EQ is doing a great job too.

Great video! That EQ is doing tons of work on the flip 6. I think one of the best small speakers to travel with. By the way just purchased a Stockwell II, I still need and use an Aux port and based on your videos it was one of the best speakers. Thank you Alan! love what you do here.

Hey Alan, another great in depth review,just a heads up on the partybox front,i have seen your reviews on the w-king t9 and the soundcore rave and indeed i purchased the t9 and was disappointed with the lack of deep bass so returned it to amazon.Yesterday i purchased my very first JBL product as i always thought they were overpriced and that other cheaper speakers were actually better....I purchased the partybox 100 for £179 from currys,thats £100 off the normal retail price of £279 and i have to say....WOW! amazing speaker,lots of punchy deep bass,massive soundstage,clear mids /highs and basically blows everything else in this category away,just a thought whist it is on offer you may want to compare this superb speaker.Cheers

Flip 6 is surprisingly good but ultimately can't overcome the size difference with the charge 5. The version variations put me off JBL (not to mention price) but the tuning is decent on both of these. I wonder if JBL will continue to implement its eq on speakers going forward or if it was just an experiment with the flip 6. 🤔 Thanks for another awesome comparison! 😁👍👏

Honestly the Flip 6 is the decent one I've heard in the JBL's lineup since 2017 it is Loud , Such extreme bass for its size .. the only thing negative about is its harshness at max vol but there is an EQ in the App which you could use to reduce the Harshness ... Overall it is Well Done!

yup i would agree.

Or for similar total size and weight, get two flip 6 and get even better sound quality at the same volume and when paired in stereo, amazing soundstage and immersion when placed strategically. Which is made possible in a wide range of listening situations as their small size allows great flexibility of placement. Only for deep base songs you cannot get around the need for bigger speakers. As a stereo pair very impressed, my old UE booms in stereo sound like utter crap in comparison, my Flip 3 stereo pair can't touch them either for clarity and base. All same size.

Point being, the UE Boom taught me that two small speakers in stereo are much more than the sum of the parts, and the formfactor allowing optimal placement in a wide range of locations/situations. As a pair the flip 6 are amazing to me. I kinda feel everyone looking at a single speaker are missing a big life hack of music enjoyment, having owned too many non-stereo pairable Bluetooth speakers, I take two 0,5kg with excellent mid volume base to a single 1kg one with a bit more extention (depending on type of music one listens to, then get two 1kg ones instead of a 2kg one ;) )
