JBL GO 4 VS Sony XB100 - sound comparison

Listen with headphones for better sound

[@keebee2337]

I have Sony SRS-XB100, the sound is clear even the bass is good and deep. For me JBL Go 4 is impressive for loud sound but for me Sony SRS-XB100 is great.

[@CristianCatalinsS8undV1d3o]

Yes, go4 is a little louder but the xb100 sound’s better, more balanced

[@sachOpyt]

Yes

[@richiedirk41]

Sony has a deep bass.. but JBL go4 more open,loud and crisp vocal

[@CristianCatalinsS8undV1d3o]

Aaa yes the Jbl sound signature

[@inlight2024]

just received my JBL GO 4 I am Fu in amazed !!! awesome

[@CristianCatalinsS8undV1d3o]

Its a nice speaker

[@thecsslife]

JBL Go4 and XB100 are the same price here in the UK. I went with Sony and I’m very happy with it. Sound quality and bass is excellent for the size. Main downside is max volume could be better. Main reason I chose Sony is that I want a mini speaker for travelling so battery life and strap features is very important. Plus I’ve been unimpressed with JBL Charge4 which I own. Edit: the 360 degree sound is very good too.

[@aabhasharyal6766]

Is the volume really that low on the sony?

[@thecsslife]

@@aabhasharyal6766 It’s not a sort of speaker you could use to blast music at a party

[@aabhasharyal6766]

@@thecsslife yeah, no i get that it’s just some reviewers are saying it’s really really muted and i really wanted owners perspective. Thanks

[@thecsslife]

@@aabhasharyal6766 No problem with volume for a room in a house and small outdoor gathering. I normally play at around half volume when just in the house. It won’t shake the room but im not using it for that.

[@CristianCatalinsS8undV1d3o]

The xb100 is loud enough, the go4 is louder because the Jbl sound is brighter but for better sound at same price I recommend this Tribit Maxsound Plus sound test-Best portable speaker for 50$? kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5zHkGiJlLWMmK8 it has better bass and a stereo sound
