Bose SoundLink Max Review - Must Buy Speaker In 2024?

[@WannaBuyIt]

Which One Y’all Picking Up? 🤔 Bose SoundLink Max - $400 JBL Xtreme 4 - $380

[@jGRite]

Marshall Middleton $250

[@808jspekeg6]

Neither. Anker soundcore boom 2 with oluv's Harman kardon go + play custom eq

[@TheAscendedTechNinja]

I have the Xtreme 3, but not the 4 or max just yet. I like the Xtreme 4 for having a huge battery and Auracast,Partyboost futures, but the bose fells like I would use it more for the more deep bass heavy balanced sound

[@jaypalmer3806]

@@jGRite I've just bought this bad boy, arriving today. Love the look and i'm sure the sound will be great! Have the emberton II as well. Bose SoundLink Flex is a great speaker, but the Max is far too expensive.

[@giorgiomorodor8974]

@@jaypalmer3806 The flex was good for it's size so i've got high hopes for this MAX version. Enjoy your sound guys! 😄

"Love my Bose SoundLink Max, but I wish I could turn it on/off via my smartphone. As someone in a wheelchair, this feature would make a big difference in my daily life. I know emails are for professionals, but this issue is important enough that I had to reach out. @Bose, please consider adding this feature and inform your retailers! 🙏 #AccessibilityMatters #BoseSoundLinkMax #Bose #InclusiveDesign #TechForAll"

[@WannaBuyIt]

It does have an AUX Port in the back as well. 👍

[@treymond_iii]

Yo can u send me one?

[@vilmfilm]

Whats the frequency response? Nobody wants to say anything except "bass good". Ummmmmm ok? Whats that supposed to mean. Can it hit 40 or 30 hz semi solid?

[@WannaBuyIt]

Idk bud I’m sure there will be an audiophile channel that will set up all the mics and test frequencies out for you soon 👍🏾. I’m far from one just a average consumer 🙃

[@shoerice5083]

Unfortunatelly bose gave no info about frequency response, but so far people claim it has the deepest bass of all it's competitors, xtreme 4 and murshall middleton etc

[@johnnelson3665]

50hz would be my guess. But actual sound is more important than numbers.

[@SA-mv3vf]

​@@shoerice5083 And they say the stereo separation is crazy good , like facing the speaker you feel the immersion of a left, right and center stage type of speaker set for it's small size and then the clarity

[@shoerice5083]

@@SA-mv3vf yea... bose did somethin interesting here, fullrange drivers and a twitter in the middle.. must create some type of image

[@hairygreens5347]

I have the revolve + does this sound better should I upgrade ? Thanks

[@66skate]

The Max plays much louder and has better stereo affect then the revolve +. I keep my Revolve + on my nightstand and it's perfect for that. The Max will fill the room with much fuller sound.

[@WannaBuyIt]

@66skate nailed it right there 👍🏾👍🏾 I think it’s worth the upgrade if you have the money to blow on it. If not there is no rush at all 🙏🏾

[@stevendavies3379]

I would love it, but it’s way too expensive, how can they justify 45 pound for a piece of rope.😮😮😮

[@shoerice5083]

​@@stevendavies3379 rope is useless imo

[@michaeljosephs6439]

I would hesitate to get the SoundLink max. It is light years better than the revolve line up. I got one the other day and the bass is insane compared to anything in its class

[@dezsoprecobturos7124]

Very much satisfied with it, got it second day after launch and use it daily. It has all I need and durability of battery and sound quality is absolutely superb

[@rdutta5368]

In terms of sound quality alone this Bose speaker or Anker Soundcore X600 (Spatial audio on) ?

[@michaeljosephs6439]

The Bose is way better than the soundcore, I just bought one but I’m not a Bose fanboy. This one is definitely great for outdoor parties, for a beach, and the bass is by far the best speaker in its class

[@jamesbridgman404]

BOSE

[@doublepauld7322]

for anyone wondering, its sounds fucking nuts.

[@frankmoreno6526]

Is this Better than Soundcore boom 2 ?????????

[@jGRite]

0:50 *Looks at monitor* That song slaps.

[@cybermistt]

It’s pretty good so far but it’s quite expensive. Still enjoying it though, listening to this video on the speaker rn.

[@shitalchaudhary5972]

Solid review, is there any sound delay when pairing with a PC via Bluetooth or Aux?

[@akshaypoul007]

No because bt version is 5.4

[@turbojobo]

How manys watts is this speaker?

[@cesarquintero_]

100

[@michaeljosephs6439]

Thank you for the awesome review. I just bought one without watch long a review and when compare to the new jbl xtreme 4 and a Marshall Middleton I have to say Bose outdid themselves on this one. It’s definitely worth $399 to me

[@JaysStraightUpReviews]

I wouldn't recommend boosting the bass on this speaker, particularly on bass heavy music at higher volume levels. This speaker can have some very concerning distortion. Of all the speakers that have been bought through my affiliate links and Amazon Storefront, this Bose Soundlink Max is the most returned of all. It's not a bad speaker, but it has issues at higher volume and a steep price tag.

[@giorgiomorodor8974]

Sick review bud - i just pre-ordered one of these for friday. (in the middle east -> UAE, around 350 USD [notax yay]). I had a bunch of 100->300 USD BTS including the SoundLink Flex, and that was good for it's size so I think with the extra beef on this it should throw some nice vibes, especially for EDM which I am mostly into. Once again, thanks so much, great review, love your style and keep it up! Thx Peace

[@paulashton7207]

I have a Bose Soundlink Mini 2 and I love it. For it’s size, the sound is really remarkable. Does anyone have any experience comparing the sound between the two? I’m not replacing the Mini but I’d consider getting the Max if there’s a considerable sound difference. The other qualities of the Max would be a bonus. Thanks.

[@cesarquintero_]

Por supuesto que hay mucha diferencia entre el Max y el mini 2

[@TemujinScott80]

Great review! I love mine

[@cesarquintero_]

Lastima ese material de silicona que envejece muy mal y bastante rapido se le ven las huellas en los botones que mas se usan, quedan marcadas para siempre

[@kellyaustin7487]

Can you link it to another one for true stereo sound?

[@TSKewl]

Supposed to be a function that will be released via a software release by the end of the year.

[@LegendaryMaoMao20]

Yo, you need to check out the new Anker Soundcore Motion Boom 2 Plus, it has just been released and how would you compare this to the Motion Boom 2? :D

[@stevenburris8854]

Are you f....... kidding, $45 for a shoulder strap for a $400 speaker!

[@pasop5304]

Can you compare it with jbl xtreme 4? (sound quality, bass and maximum volume)

[@jamesbridgman404]

Def Bose for clarity... not far off depends on what look you like...

[@5purplecups]

I need a deal on that 😂 i got the flex brand new 2yrs ago and it’s still fire

[@sanjidagitharkanasuraweera2352]

I think it looks better as boombox look

[@melancholic.egoist]

wth! WHERE DID YOU BUY YOUR SHIRT! D***! SO COOL!

[@TheAscendedTechNinja]

This speaker seems really promising for its size, although it's pretty expensive. Btw how did you get in contact with Bose, btw trying to save some bread 😅

[@brownthiti7083]

I'm very Happy with BOSE Soundlink Flex (x2) for daily life Them can swith L-R any connects 🎉 #BUT Now! Very excited 😆 to Have Bose Soundlink Max 💥 🙌🙏🇹🇭

[@TemujinScott80]

I heard paired flexes are great! I can’t wait to be able to pair the max too

[@e.a8045]

How is it compared to the sound flex?

[@nikolaihadjiev1107]

And with 2 flex paired together?

[@shoerice5083]

It's way more superior sounding than the flex.

[@shoerice5083]

​@@nikolaihadjiev1107it has good enough stereo to compete, and it beats the flexes in bass and loudness

[@108mtsan]

I was in best buy comparing the sound flex and max side to side for an hour. I couldn't tell the difference in sound quality between the two speakers except that the max has a stereo sound. They both seem to have just as much bass. But that is comparing from the store and without any eq adjustments on the max. But when compared to the soundlink revolve plus, both the flex and max sounded way better.

[@nikolaihadjiev1107]

Thanks. So it's possible that 2 flex in stereo mode will sound better, or at least the same like Max. ​@@108mtsan

[@fabiandeleon8458]

120 watts, 45 watts each woofer 15 watts each tweeter

[@benjaminwallace5644]

I’m going to wait for Bose to release a firmware update so I can pair 2 soundlink Max together for stereo mode sound

[@giorgiomorodor8974]

Party mode coming soon (via firmware update) apparently :)

[@SylasTheGreat]

​@@giorgiomorodor8974They know that... They literally said they're gonna wait for that

[@stevendavies7351]

Just bought the bose soundlink max for £269 pound, bargain.

[@johnshepherd2666]

Dude ...black Bose matters 😅😅😅

[@InaotombaNaorem]

Too expensive...

[@thecsslife]

Sounds great but looks boring

[@Linux567]

You want some Lights 🎉?

[@wadec6799]

Wanna buy it ya gotta get your hands on wking x20 gaurantee it murders everything besides the bb3 for low end bass altho I feel it's rught there and has better mids highs separation but man I'd maybe pay 130 for this pos I think bose is most overrated brand on market unless ya need the best anc in pair of earbuds lol

[@jedolivier2688]

It’s definitely the best speaker for outdoors in its price & size range. I own one & that thing is a beast.

[@jedolivier2688]

Yeah, the Bose is more well suited for indoor use due to its sound quality & bass response. I this size range, the Boom2 offers the best performance & bang for buck in its size & price range for outdoor use.

[@lukitolukito312]

Over rated

[@michaeljosephs6439]

It definitely is not. I just bought one and I’m not a Bose fan boy. I tested it side by side to a Marshall Middleton, jbl extreme 4, and 2 Bose sound link flex and trust me it’s on a whole different level. The bass is far superior to anything in its class as far as the size. Try one like I did you wouldn’t regret it at all

[@nicowank634]

​@@michaeljosephs6439 it really is over rated way too expensive for what you're getting i recently tested it against the boom 2 plus and the boom get way louder with way more bass the bose only sounds slightly better and it costs half as much the bose is absolutely a great speaker but the price just ain't right

[@goodshittv7541]

In korea, this speaker bose soundlink max is now available for 682usd 🥲. Hope its price will get low after a week or months.
