Hello Alan who is better in the speaker market now 2024 for utility regular indoor and outside best song quality and bass boosted + EQ like the motioncore + high res system sound for exemple in my memories maybe jbl xtreme 4 or boom 2, boom plus or boom or W king 10 or another speaker ? ( i have a soundcore motion + but now i think i can have a better sound so far) ?

Appreciate the solid review! I'm upgrading from a Charge 5 - just need a bit more volume (mostly used in a noisy volleyball gym). Considering I can get the 3 for $250 vs. $380 for the 4, I've decided to go for the 3, even though the 4 does sound a bit better to me at high volumes. I still think the 3 will be a big upgrade over the Charge 5 at those high volumes - seems like the Xtreme 3 at roughly 60-70% volume will be the same loudness as the Charge 5 with better sound, plus some room to extend louder.

I'm looking forward to the Soundcore Boom 2 Review ❤

Thanks for the informative reviews. Please make a comparison from with old speakers like Bose Sounddock Portable with some of the new ones. I was searching long and ended buying the Sounddock Portable, compared to soundcore motion boom and motion 300 which do not have wired aux\3.5 connection … some opinions will be appreciated

Hey Alan, another in-depth and funny review! Thanks for making my day, again 😀 It's a real shame that the new Xtreme 4 brings so little to the table, was hoping for more improvements. What's really disappointing to me is the lack of bass at higher volumes when comparing to other speakers like the Encore or the Stormbox Blast. That's really unfortunate, maybe they will come with a firmware update to change this, but given the history, probably unlikely. I really liked the HK Go Play series, especially the latest model, but I'm worried about the bottom firing woofer when using it outdoors. What would you recommend for mostly outdoor usage (with some mixed indoor usage)? Is it still the Stormbox Blast? I'm also considering the JBL Encore, but I have no usage for the mics (it's roughly the same price as the Stormbox Blast and the HK Go Play 3). I wish WiFi was more popular, we have either the JBL Charge 5 (decent, but mono) or the Boombox 3 (quite large and expensive). The rest are smart speakers, tailored to indoor usage (with a few exceptions).

Será que melhoraram o grave em relação a Extreme 3???

The analysis was so good - the way you were checking the accuracy of those 5 bands, was great. You said it's a little bit better in terms of sound quality, but has decent feature and hardware improvements. Can the Xtreme 3 have the updated 5 band EQ support for now ..? How big is the battery in real-time real-life experience ..? Is it worth an upgrade from X3 for a bit better sound quality and bigger battery ..?

@alanrossreviews

3 ай бұрын

Its a good question about the 5 band eq, im guessing even if they could enable it for the x3 they won't because it would be one less reason to buy the x4. Battery life i no longer test due to too many variables but the battery is big, it should last way longer than the x3. Also seems nd and gg version are quite different for x4. For me x4 gg is a little better than x3 gg but i wouldn't update unless i could get a good price on the x3 👍

@@alanrossreviews Input ports are an avenue for failure for an IP67-rated device, and I'm guessing not much of their target market use AUX in anyway. The only time that I use AUX-IN on my BT speakers is when I'm doing speaker measurements. If they were targeting the micro-DJ market, they'd offer one of the low-latency wireless connection options, like SKAA. Soundboks already does this. It would be nice though if the USB port wasn't used only for charging, and the BT speaker would show up as an USB audio device when plugged into a PC ... :-).

motion boom plus???

Have you had a chance to take a look at the "brane x" bluetooth speaker? supposedly they were measuring 95db at 35hz 1m and functional response down to 20hz... and thats out of a mid size bt speaker... Website description is a bit too smug for my taste but it uses a split voice coil woofer and an opposing magnet array on the vc itself between the coils to counter the force exerted by the rise in air pressure as the cone excursion increases, a reverse spring of sorts. Lets the woofer behave as if its in a much larger box.

@alanrossreviews

3 ай бұрын

they are marketing the the dual magnet setup as groundbreaking but its been done before. i have looked at this before and it sounded like snake oil to me. functional response means? 95hz peak for a single 35hz tone at max volume? it needs to deliver for the price for sure but too much marketing nonsense like 100 times louder than normal subs right?

@Westcoastweenie

3 ай бұрын

​​@@alanrossreviews yeah, it struck me as kind of a similar setup to jbl's split coil woofers for their pro stuff. But the magnets in between on the coil itself are novel... i think. The way they advertise it drives me a bit nuts, calling it the breaker of "hoffmans iron law" and 10x more efficient... yeah right. I agree at the end of the day it'll only move as much air as a 6x8 woofer can move. No beating physics there. I hope to see someone review it objectively at some point but It's a tough sell at $600 lol.

I will do this comparison soon 🔜

So, im having a tough time trying to find the difference between the xtreme 4 and the soundcore boom 2. Now im seeing new things about both of them, some are good, some are bad. Techder audios said that he expected way more from the boom 2, it's very cheap and plasticy feeling, and has also bass rolloff at high volumes, and the xtreme 4 has it's own problems with the lower mids etc. No clue what to think. I wanted to order the boom 2, and now i cancled the order because i started thinking if it was a smart idea. The jbl seems promising, the soundcore is cheap but can be a watse of money if the jbl becomes better.

@@alanrossreviews waiting for that.. At this point i don't know where to turn, i can order the boom 2, from amazon only, and it costs 190 dollars sadly with the shipping and everything. So for me it's not 130$. So it gotta be great it im willing to pay 60$ more. The xtreme 4 will be available in my country for sure, and jbl prices in here can change drastically, like the boombox 3 i got for 320$...

@@alanrossreviews I got the boom and the boom plus as well. Looks good and very high quality. Still not sure if the sound matches the old gen boom. Haven't had time to play with the EQ.

You know what I find weird… I prefer my Xtreme 3 over my boombox 3. I feel like covering the woofers with the tweeters was a terrible idea. I’m not saying I hate the boombox 3. Then again I feel like the WiFi edition might have fixed that. Idk… but I feel like something is missing from the BB3 vs the X3

There's nothing wrong with this kind of setup. It's actually called submarine coaxial drivers. But the real problem is the tweeter housing is wayy too chunky, so mostly blocks the front, exp the midrange corners. So the mids cames out there.

Is there a decrease in bass after the volume level is 70%?

its all about that battery.....

Hopefully that battery never swells...! Maybe someone will come up with a 3d-printable handle that can snap on to the top of the speaker, using those loops for the strap. Out of all of them, I like the looks and form factor of the original JBL Extreme. 150 Hz dip due to diffraction or interference between the woofers? I'm not sure that's it - the 1/4 wavelength at 150 Hz is 57cm, or 22 inches. The distance between the two woofers is much less than that.

@@alanrossreviews It is interesting. Assuming that it's not a room mode, maybe some sort of phase issue? When you measured the woofer's response, did you place the mic close to one woofer, or dead center between the two of them? Maybe JBL is doing some f****ery with phase around 150 Hz for some reason.

I've encountered 3 different variants of the Charge 5 in the US. The ND,NT, & TT. The ND & NT are made in China. The TT is made in Vietnam. The ND has the most dynamic volume & sound, with a thick & heavy low bass response. The ND isn't quite as loud, with a softer or warmer sounding bass. The TT has a nice, clean,clear sound, but the overall volume & bass response drops off drastically in comparison to the other 2 variants. This is why it's best to go in-store & purchase JBL speakers, so you can physically lift the box up & read the serial number. You never know what variant you're purchasing online.

its the off many of the jbl lineup as it is the worst value and sits between the charge 5 and bb3 without any point. you cant hold it in one hand and it has nothing on the bass of the bb3.

trouble is sound changes at every volume and there is no real headroom so if you push bass it will just reduce mids and highs. however at 60% using my eq for me it goes from awful to not too bad.
