@alanrossreviews You can't help but love the Tribit product support. With FW V1.2.8 you can now assign the EQ button as you wish. This means that you no longer have to open the app every time you want to switch back from "XBass" to any custom setting, for example. Great! 🤩

I can't see how your channel hasn't blown up on youtube yet. Well, at least I can't without being cynical. It's not only that it provides honest reviews and forces companies to react, it's also that I end up learning a lot about audio, and scratching several of my geeky itches at the same time. Stellar work Alan. Steady as she goes!

Soundpoor eat your heart out 😁 those *uckers are doing it to me again. Over a week ago after my post saying my 300 review is delayed because soundcore wont send me one, i mean techder got his too but they don't want full details out there and ignored my email.. Anyway after my IG post they emailed to say Cedrick the bullshitter had left and they would like to now send me the 300. I told them i already bought one so why not send the x500 instead. So they said sure they will post today. A week later i asked where it was and they said logistics problems lol i should be patient and wait. Today i asked for eta since all the shills now have their sponsored bullshit up 😂 of course nothing. Honestly never dealt with a worse company than soundoor.

Thanks Alan for the update, these are reasonable center frequency and Q factor for a 9-band EQ on this type of speaker. Good job Tribit.

@@alanrossreviews I'm not sure, with only 9 bands non-parametric it seems alright to avoid making significant peaks or dips. It's easier to use and hear also for a normal user who doesn't have access to frequency measurements. At 7:00 using these 150 Hz and 300 Hz bands, I see some potential, and the 600 Hz one up a tiny bit to counter that dip at 650 Hz. Did you start playing with it to make you own tuning? How did it go. But yeah since they're wide it requires to touch several bands each time instead of a single one due to the overlap.

Hello Alan. Thank you in advance for your valuable, professional and authentic work and always with the right amount of humor!!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 I bought two Tribit Stormbox Flow and I am generally very satisfied and happy with them, especially with the EQ X-Bass on and the current firmware 1.2.5. Nevertheless, the question is whether you have found or measured optimized, individual EQ settings, as is the case with the Soundcore Motion Boom, for example, of which I also have two. Thank you very much and best regards from Hamburg, Ralph

Great stuff, Alan. Much appreciated. With the firmware update has the Flow finally become more compelling than the Bose Flex? I'm planning to replace my Logitech UE mobile Boombox with one of them primarily for taking phone calls and casual listening (youtube vids and so on). I'd obviously be happy with one of the smaller Marshall Willens ot a Tribit Micro, but I ilke the sound quality on the Flex/Flow better.

I really love this kind of immediate positive feedback, thanks Alan for your detailed work as usual Tribit is really setting a good pace for em budget BT speakers, the "Blast" a king of budget boombox that gives value for money & outperforms some costlier competitors, the "Micro 2" a pocket king...and many more, on that note, the Micro 2 latest firmware for my region is 1.2.4, if you have time, you can check it out later, we rely on your verdict, EQ & more to make the best out of our portable ear pleasers😃 What small speaker will you recommend for a full sounding bass, clean mids & highs, warm sound signature at low volumes(20-35%) mainly to be used on top of office desk during work & for night sleep et all, ability of tws is a bonus Price($60 - $80)

Hi Alan! Got a problem and a question to you, as I always really appreciate your opinion. First of all, I have a Motion Boom speaker. I am using your custom EQ for 2 years now since I've bought it and everything was good, I was really enjoying this speaker. Since around 20th October I have a problem with buzzing noice. It doesn't matter how loud the speaker is, if there is heavy bass music or more highs and mids focused music, it is really annoying. I am @00.43 firmware version. Did you noticed same problems? What I have noticed is, when I turn the Bass Boost off everything is "fine" (the buzzing noice does not appear). If you have a solution to this I would be more than grateful to share it with me. if not, what speaker on a "budget" would you suggest to me? I am torn between Motion Boom Plus (but kinda worried I will come along same problems as with Motion Boom), Tribit Stormbox Blast or 2x Tribit Stormbox Flow. I always appreciate clarity and balance while listening to music, but from a speaker I want pretty much always big rich bass. Thank you in advance!

I decided to pull the trigger on The StormBox Flow. $51. It arrived yesterday. Created a V shape with the custom EQ (still fiddling with it btw) and so far I ain’t mad at it. Far from it actually. Even though The Flow doesn’t have orientational EQ it’s still a very good budget alternative to The Soundlink Flex. My only grievances so far, and they’re not major, is the bass plateauing at 60/70 percent and the app is a smidge on the wonky side.

Maxsound plus if you value neutrality over slim design

But still disppointed on the flow, love the storm, the pro and the micro 2, was considering to get the flow but its basically an oversized micro with a bass close but not equal to the first stormbox, might consider the motion 300 as i was searching for a portable stereo bluetooth speaker

I want to buy either this or the bose flex, idk why but i like the shape and look of this kind of pocket speaker, and it kicks nicely. But the bose flex is kinda outdated, has bluetooth 4.2, doesn't have the app, but is a very solid speaker with no distortion On the other hand, tribit came less expensive, new bluetooth, app support, but the tuning is what im questioning here, oluv compared these two (without any firmwares) And said the bose sounded more opened and has nicer bass with pronounced kicks at higher volumes while the tribit sounded kinda off.. What do you think about the tribit now after the firmwares and eq presets? Could it sound similar?
