Alan Ross Reviews Top Picks: Full list at www.otza.com/speakers/ Top For value Tribit Stormbox Blast: Pound for pound champ!

@@alanrossreviews Hmm. I have a pretty specific use case... I went to the beach with my Motion Boom right after I bought it and I felt very very tempted to use it as a prop rescue buoy and jump into the surf with it while blasting the Baywatch opening theme. So I did exactly that. It still worked fine for two years after that, but you could hear the specks of sand if you shook it hard. (Saltwaterproof: Yes, surprisingly! Sandproof... not so much.) I only stopped using it because it got stolen recently, so I've been waiting to see if something equally light comes along - even if this feature makes it somewhat easier to steal. If not maybe I'll just buoy another Boom.

Alan would you say out of all the speakers you have tested, that the jbl bb3 and wifi go the lowest in hertz bass out of everything?
@alanrossreviews7 ай бұрын
this really depends on your definition of going deep and how much of that deepness you want. tone test is meaningless. to hear that bass it must be strong relative to mids and highs so the question is how sensitive your ears are to that deep bass. onyyx 5, onyx 6, onyx 8, go play 3 and bb3 all do simialr deep bass but how you hear it over the rest of the track will differ. for example bb3 is a bit sculpted which brings out more boom but go play 3 is quite flat from deep to upper bass so wont sound quite as boom boom but the bass its better overall, basically im saying despite what people keep saying in comments about bass its not an easy topic where you can simply say one goes lower than another. what i will ay is anyone telling you that a speaker does xhz because they did a single test tone sadly has no idea what they are talking about. playing a note and hearing that note in a real track are two different things.
@Jagistreviews7 ай бұрын
@alanrossreviews thanks for the reply and so detailed to, I do hertz test because people want to see it ha ha but I agree it doesn't make that speaker capable just because it can play a low bass note on a bass test, thank you though you answered my question amazingly, I appreciate everything that you do!!!

Thank you Alan, as always for taking the time to do such honest and detailed reviews. As the saying goes different strokes for different folks. I genuinely think you cover most angles of what could be important to buyers of portable speakers. For us, we live in the UK and regularly wild camp throughout the year, in all weather conditions - snow, frost, heavy rain, to beautiful sunshine. Sometimes down to -5/6oC. We have a pretty impressive collection of JBLs and they have never let us down. There is no facility to charge and they give us great sound all weekend on their batteries. A true test of portable speakers.

Yes. I just got mine yesterday and I love it, the only thing I wish it had was a IP rating so I could use it in the shower room. I found that I can apply some Apple predesigned EQ settings while using Apple music on iPhone in the settings app which is really nice. I can use the lower bass setting and it lowers the bass and adds more treble. Also I only paid $149 free shipping for mine straight from Harman Kardon, its' the black one but it's still nice. I now like it better than my JBL Xtreme 3, although I do like the extra treble on the Xtreme 3. Love your reviews Alan best info for Bluetooth speakers on KZbin.

Hey Alan. I really really do believe in your Audio analysis expertise. I just have got two questions from you. I hope you do reply. Number one question is do you consider HK Onyx Studio 8 one of the greatest bluetooth speakers of all time ? Number two question is why won't you review some more expensive home speakers such as Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin or Bang & Olufsen Beosound A5 and A9 ? I'd like a direct comparison between for example B&O Beosound A5 and HK Go+Play 3 or HK Onyx Studio 8. I'd like to figure out how these more expensive options stack up against my favorite speaker brand Harman Kardon.
@alanrossreviews7 ай бұрын
no i do not consider the onyx 8 one of the great speakers, where did you get that from? i prefer the onyx 6 personally. I cant review every speaker of course so there is always going to be tons i havent reviewed. i simply cant afford these more expensive speakers since i buy 90% of my speakers myself due to refusing to do paid reviews. these companies are not going to trust the likes of me to have a free hand to give an honest opinion of speakers they want to make a ton of money on and control the narrative.

The bass potential of the HK Go+Play 3 is ridiculously good. I put it in bass eq 3 (bass boost). Set it on a nightstand with the unit in the corner of the room and used the Spotify eq to further boost the bass. Just to experiment. It has A LOT of headroom. The amount of deep bass it’s capable of putting out without distortion is insane for the size of the driver. Made the room feel like a dance club (almost). No exaggeration! Way too much for normal listening but was fun to see what it can do.

I love the sound that comes out of this speaker, especially at volumes of 75% & louder. I also own the BB3 which I also use strictly indoors placed near a wall with it plugged in.

Just got the boombox 3, and ye... It sounds amazing. Till about 40-50% volume the default flat eq is fine, great clarity. But going past that, bass +1, mids -1, highs 0 becomes better balanced, not too harsh. Overall, for something this portable, excellent! Got it for 290, was deciding between this and the stormbox blast, but the blast was 260 here... Also have the onyx 5 and 7, motion + and motion boom. Overall the boombox is the favorite now.

Все-таки стереоэффект от двух разнесенных на пару-тройку метров колонок - будет производить совершенно другое впечатление, чем одиночная колонка.
