The JBL Xtreme 2 is finally here! And for the most part the JBL Xtreme 2 is a refined JBL Xtreme. And over all the JBL Xtreme 2 is a good speaker... but personally I did expect a little more. Even though the JBL Xtreme 2 sounds better, has an IPX7 certification, and JBL Connect Plus I would have liked if the JBL Xtreme 2 had a better battery life, an out doors mode button like the JBL Boombox, and maybe even quick charging.

The jbl go is the perfect little speaker even with 1/3 of the battery of the xtreme 2 it is a good little speaker.
2:00 it's a security feature so the strap doesn't come off... i thought it was quite clever

true!
Again a very detailed review that covers everyting. From the size of the speakers to the size of the charger
I actually came here to see the beer bottle opener feature being tested. So satisfied!
I loved this review (listening in headphones that you recommended) and the music choice was great thanks :)
Awesome review dude keep it up and i love your vids they help out a lot!!!!!! p.s can you do charge 3 vs flip 4?????
Good review! I was waiting for JBL extreme 2 release and now I'm not quite sure if I want this speaker anymore.. as tbh I also expected a bit more. Would you recommend this as a purely home speaker?
Great review. Very informative and just good info to know. Thanks!
Could you please tell me what equipments you use to film all of your youtube videos? Please and thanks!
Awesome review! Just got mine last week! I agree with you, I feel its a little low outdoors but hey we can't have it all right?
Will the connect+ feature work on the JBL extreme 2 if the music source is via auxiliary Jack instead of bluetooth? My end goal is to connect 2 extreme 2 speakers to my TV but NOT use a Y adapter for connection. Make sense?
I like the review and the filming. Audio though... try voice over like you do at some points. I’m liking your reviews though
Hi Good afternoon from the UK l hope you are well. I am looking for a Bluetooth Speaker I was originally going to go for a Sony but I want one with an audio jack input so that would mean I could only go for the XB43. However the size and battery life has put me off. My next choice was the JBL Extreme 2 but your comments on Latency now prelude that as I will be watching videos with it. I want one that's waterproof as I will be taking it camping so what do your recommended? Is there anything that fits the bill? Thanks in advance.
That was a great video. Thank you. I’m wondering if you know if the JBL extreme two can be linked with a flip 4?
Make an update with the new firmware? I hear it sounds a lot better now.
I just received one for Christmas I’m satisfied 😊
Thanks for this. This video REALLY did help alot
this is a quality review man keep that up!
Hey whats up!! I don’t know if you have ever tried holding bluetooth and volume negative the speaker gets noticeably louder. Is there anyway you can review this versus louder bluetooth speakers.
I plan on getting the extreme 2 in a few days and I was wondering if I would hurt it if I played it at full volume before the break-in period is through
Hey did you hear about the new firmware update for the JBL Xtreme 2? It makes the speaker louder and cleaner sounding!

That clipping works fine for me, mine hangs mostly at 15 meters height.
An EQ setting on the phone will fix the need for an outdoors mode on the Xtreme 2.

Hi everyone are these rechargeable speakers disposable aftr years when batteries died?or we can still use them on charge indoor ?
How long is the break in period? And what is indoor mode?
I just bought a Clip 3 and Xtreme 2 (my first 2 bluethooth speakers ever) and I expected more from the Xtreme 2 but the Clip 3 has such good sound for that small size
cant decide between charge 4 and xtreme 2.. my neighbours hate the bass but i love to hear loud music so would the charge 4 maybe be better?
How long does the xtreme 2 last because I had a Sony xb31 and get only lasted a month
I just bought the jbl exreme 2 and I am very happy with to. The sound quality is fantasic and great bass that I like so much.
Salve .volevo sapere se per caso si rompe un.altoparlante del jblxtreme 2 oppure un.passivo si possono sostituire? E se si..dove li trovo?

Hello guys, i want to buy a good outdoor speaker (around 300€). Is the xtreme 2 worth it or are there better options?

Your opinion is exactly the same as mine lmao, i also expected a little more, yes the audio improved, yes it has JBL Connect +, but the battery life, the nitt picky thing about the carrying strap and the indoor/outdoor mode were also expected to imrpove, tho they didn't.

Thanks ! Hope made a match against the XB41 very soon ! keep going, great premiums videos reviews :D
Hi, I have a JBL Charge 3 and a Flip 4. Both of them sound great in bluetooth mode, but whenever i plug them in via aux cable, the sound quality worsens and a get a constant buzz going through the music. I tried different aux cords, and different sources such as my phone, my pc soundcard, and a dac/amp that I have, and all of them have the same issue. Anybody else have this? Any ideas what to do?
Very good review - thank you 👍
DID YOU GET THE NEW FIRMWARE UPDATE AND DO A NEW REVIEW.. MADE A BIG DIFFERENCE..
The first JBL I got was a GO 2. Then I bought a flip 4. Then for this Christmas I got a Charge 4.The Flip 4 and the Charge 4 make a great combo with JBL Connect+. I don't think I need an Xtreme or a Boombox. I am happy with what I have.
Wish the volume was better. I like the construction and the easy Bluetooth sync. Battery life is incredible.
Is does have an outdoor mode. Hold the volume + putting down and power button at same time for 10 seconds
GYMCADDY There is a new update for the Xtreme 2 through the mobile app. Can you let us know about that? Thanks and great video!
Sony has an equaliser to adjust treble and bass. Is there an option to adjust treble and bass on extreme2? Or any 3rd party apps to help?

I bought the Xtreme 2 but can someone please tell me what song he played for the sound test
yes I enjoyed the video, u maid your point perfectly clear and I totally agree. I was mainly looking for to the rumor about it being 50 watts and definitely was looking forward to it having a slightly better battery / life. But better sound, connect plus, water proof and more pleasing design definitely good enough for me! I don't give a dam that it's missing one extra charging port l as I only use the external battery feature in times of emergency plus I have several others that have the same feature but yeah awesome review dude I'm looking for to mine arriving in the mail I have the forest green I'm looking for to getting a second 1 next year in that midnight blue! Two xtreme 2s and a boom Box will be awesome and I bet the xtreme 2s will get louder in stereo mode!

Hi guys, What do you recommend between JBL Xtreme 2 and Harman Kardon Go+play ?
@zipur3364
5 жыл бұрын
Go play without doubt, Xtreme 2 has literally no bass at all, Go Play is the king of bass.
It’s the perfect portable size with a massive quality output even on the high end of the volume spectrum it gives absolute no distortion, heck if you want the speaker to go even louder, leave it connected to the wall through the charging port and it’ll give it more juice making way louder! Regardless best speaker hands down for its price, size, & quality. Admit the JBL boom box is preposterous, bulky and mainly aimed towards larger gatherings making less versatile.
if I buy a Flip4 or Flip5 or Flip essential can I use 2 of the same speakers as a spaced stereo pair?

Name of the song on the test??? Please!
Can you compare Ue megablast and UE megaboom 3?
What song was the one you used to test?
I hope the next firmware update helps the sound and bass better
The xtreme 1 to get Connect +?
Need audio output like head phone so that I can connect with amplifier. We have fourshed to modify after purchase ,we are added audio output but company fitted will be better.
I was so waiting for you to mention the clip thing, i hate it 2

nice review but low volume. mics sound excellent, just low volume for some reason. i had to get really close to my laptop to hear ya
For the price I went with the w king d8. Actually I bought 2 for $160 for both and bought a protection plan for $8. They sound great paired together but I have to admit the extreme 2 does have a more refined sound. However not that much more refined!!!
What’s the song playing in 5:00
I got my xtreme for 1,5year and i love it
i think what they mean about jbl xtreme 1 hardware limitations is that its not water proof its only splash proof so i guess thats the reason
