Marshall Willen VS Bose Soundlink Micro VS JBL Clip 4

[@itsjaik]

I think Bose has the most comfortable sound for the ears, slightly warmth, clear voice, and most importantly Deep Bass.

[@GeeYo25]

Big thing that I felt was as missed with the JBL, was a battery indicator. I’ve had the Bose for a few years now and found this JBL on sale.. sounds great and vocals are definitely a bit more clear… but not being able to visually see the battery power is a bit of a let down. I was just out playing golf today and the battery indicator light was blinking red after 3.5 hours.. which is nowhere near the advertised time. I understand the volume plays a role but not knowing exactly the percentage you’re at is a bummer. That’s what I like about the Bose.. upon turning on you get an announcement of the percentage and you have multiple indicator lights at the top of the speaker, giving you an indication of battery remaining.

[@dannyfz]

same annoyance i had with the JBL. it can last 10 hours but youd need to have it at maybe 50% max volume and its just not doable with how weak the speaker is. i would have it at max volume and have it die in ~4-5 hours

[@abnrgr7569]

I have the Marshall Emberton and now the Willen. I use the Willen for listening to sports outside on the deck st the Bar. It's awesome sound for live sports and watching TV both on my cellphone. It's small size and strap makes it easy to carry ,hook it to my belt then put it in a chair about 6ft from the cellphone set mid volume.

[@Tigre01]

For me it's really down to two which is Marshall & JBL. JBL has the better sound when it comes to music, Marshall would be good for calls, podcast, & movie watching on the road. Bose is coming off muddy.

[@musiccfreakk1996Be]

Honestly personally i would say JBL sounds great....for bass heavy song... Any music with more clear sounds&vocal heavy the bass disrupts the clear sound 🤔 but if you listen to mostly bass heavy music then yes great

[@MrX-ot4cv]

Maybe it's only me, but I felt the the clip 4 had the best sound!

[@DaewangDaughter]

Same here

[@F4D3P4R4D0X]

Right!?! Like I was kinda confused on that myself lol I feel the vocals are more pronounced on the clip 4

[@SuperRichyrich11]

It’s better if you like more treble than bass. Marshall is better if you like bass. I like BASS so it’s Marshall for me. Both are clearly better than the Bose though

[@mindaugask5325]

@@SuperRichyrich11 compared bose VS clip 4 in store. Bose wins hands down, that rich bassy sound is way better than clips.

[@theinfinate]

The detail may sound better in a video like this however in the real world, the focus on the upper frequency can get too much for long listening. Bose sounds less but it is a nice smooth sound that is less fatiguing

[@sambourne3153]

I got the jbl clip 4, but it made a weird crackling sound so I got a refund and bought the bose micro that sounds so much better, no regrets with that purchase at all

[@razkopchan]

Bose is insane. Tiny package, but the sound is great. And that BASS!

[@neongecko3065]

Bose is mediocre at best. $100 for it is highway robbery first of all. More like a 50ish dollar speaker in my opinion. Battery life sucks, doesn’t get very loud at all, and there isn’t much bass. Sure you can hear it a little, but it’s nothing to rave about. Build quality is pretty good but it better be for 100 dollars. I don’t understand why everyone thinks it’s such a good speaker, maybe if it was half the price I could understand it

[@ШерзодМузаффаров-о5э]

This is exactly the review I was looking for. Thank you!

[@anstef1485]

I agree with you that the Marshall appears to be the best pick. Would have liked to hear Jazz, Classical and Rock on the speakers to better judge their sound quality.

[@sherrilleaster1312]

I like the clarity of that jbl speaker.

[@CEONTHEMAKING]

Jbl is definitely the way to go for clarity

[@RaikaSTi]

It definitely is clear and louder than the other 2

[@classicallyliberal]

no mids

[@elipuebla2537]

JBL CLIP is as clear as ever ,well balanced with nice clear mids.

[@Godlyblurrs]

Have had the bose micro for a few years now using solely strapped to my kayak. And other random things. The battery life on average for me is 7hrs, which is plenty. And it sounds great for it’s size! I will say not having usb-c is a still a bummer, and it definitely could use a separate tweeter for highs. But over all it’s been a fantastic speaker.

[@J_M_YT]

I have the same expierience with it so far...

[@totamendez3989]

I have the Marshall Stockwell and one thing I like about it is I can control the bass and treble through the knobs. I like the sound of Bose Micro for its size. It sounds fuller and well balanced with the highs and lows.

[@CEONTHEMAKING]

Definitely! The bose has a warm mellow sound to it. Awesome in person.

[@РадимГумметов]

У меня есть и клип 4 и босе микро. В живую босе на голову выше , чем клип. А вот Маршалл не знаю в Реале как. Я думаю точно лучше , чем jbl.

[@danielwoofer2209]

I have the Stockwell I bot it w/out the handle 2nd hand and I encased it in a wooden structure!! It even sounds much better!! More bass and better sound quality!! It's a great speaker for loudness and bass.

[@sjmullen6691]

You didn't talk about price. I found a Clip 4 for under 50 bucks, and the sound is kick ass. Glad I bought it.

[@_01JohnJ]

Funny thing is yesterday I went into Best Buy and was looking at all 3 speakers. I listened to all 3 in demo mode and the JBL sounded flat while the Bose had a great natural sound. But I went with the Marshall because it had good sound and it had a punch to its bass not to mention the battery life.

[@ChatchanokMars]

Same thing to me I finally purchased Marshall and battery life is sick. I also like the bottom at the front that can control volume, next and previous songs.

[@dannyfz]

its the best choice if price isnt an issue.

[@_01JohnJ]

[@CEONTHEMAKING]

It can't lol

[@Thavisup]

@@CEONTHEMAKING 😂😂

[@jairenstewal]

I listened to this video with AirPods Pro and what I found was, Bose is giving more bass, JBL is treble more treble, while Marshall is giving the balance of both. I own a Soundlink Flex and thinking about buying a Soundlink Micro, but after watching this video, I might taking the Marshall Willen cause for this size of speaker I might just wanna use it as a speaker for Podcast or Audiobooks or for backing up my iPad, while the Soundlink Flex still the go to speaker for listening to Music.

[@mars775]

i owned jbl clip and never regretted the sound . After watching the video JbL has the best sound. Though i will get the marshall as well for the look and my name is marshall😉

[@mrbig1022]

[@celiapeinado8655]

Hey CEONTHEMAKING, do you have the name of the song playing 7:54 by any chance? It's impossible to find through the lyrics or Shazam

[@drtroyturner7464]

t.j. Maxx now has the JBL clip 4 for $44 . I thought about returning but multiple reviews have revealed that you're not going to get much more for that price tag so just enjoy

[@angelajemm.calilung3069]

Love my Jbl Clip 4 affordable price and clear sound . For me the best color for it is the Black

[@AmitKumar-ic5ty]

Marshall has a balanced sound, Bose has good bass but little treble, and JBL has high treble and little bass.

[@fukomanOfficial]

I want to ask honestly, I mostly listen to electronic deep house music, which one do you think I should choose?

[@saidmughery357]

@@fukomanOfficial If your pockets are deep enough go for Bose

[@waynebickerton8197]

Please update this to the clip 5! The clip 5 and 4 do not sound alike, but Bose has not upgraded their speaker. As you know. The willen has great extension but suffers with the app and the bass extension. I think the clip 5 and Bose are closer in terms of bass, but the JBL does have a fairly extended high end (to increase perceived volume) but can be adjusted via it's eq...

[@Spreadsheet1com]

I paired a JBL Clip4 with an Apple iWatch Ultra and I can listen to music without the use of an iPhone (WAN or eSIM). However, I cannot hear audio from the Clip4 during phone calls. I am aware that the Clip4 does not have a built-in microphone anymore. I am using the iWatch mic during calls, but I want to hear audio via a waterproof Bluetooth speaker under some noisy conditions. Audio can be routed from the iWatch Ultra to a SONY SRS-XB43. Why doesn't the Clip4 work in a similar way? Any suggestions about how to fix this issue?

[@abhimanyuchauhan7692]

[@protexusa]

Bose sounds to me like from the deep hole is the music is coming.JBL and Marshall are very close call.

[@waynedexter]

The writings were on the wall with this comparison. The Bose needs updating so badly it’s bordering on painful. I copped the JBL because I was enamored with its form factor but after a week I returned it because the bass was very anemic. You should try to cop the Tribit StormBox Micro. I think that speaker could give the Willen a run for it’s money. Cheers

[@gtbigdog3507]

Agree the Bose needs an update. Hate micro usb

[@TheBlackestMessiah]

I got the stormbox micro. The battery life sucks after a few months. I can barely squeeze 3 hrs of play time out of it. And thats with the sound being on low.

[@loveisthething]

@@TheBlackestMessiah is that the first version?

[@TheBlackestMessiah]

@@loveisthething yeah

[@damien2729]

So I once got the Sony XB10 and it was pretty solid, but it had one downside, it distorted at max volume. I would love to see you include audio samples at max volume, just so we the potential buyers, can see the max volume clarity and see if it distorts the audio or not, cause never again will I get a speaker that does that, and really should disqualify a speaker in these head to head matchups. Also a battery test at max volume use would be extremely useful information to include :D. Just a thought, anyways, awesome vid, def subbed :D

It makes sense that Marshall is the best one. over here in Australia, it's double the price of what the JBL Clip4 is. So you would hope to get what you pay for. Marshalls have always had that premium feel with any of their products.
