JBL Xtreme 3 vs Sony SRS-XB43!!! Who is the winner???

[@kcmullins6179]

I own multiples of both. And have every generation of jbl from the flip 3 up to the 6 , charge 3 to 5 and every xtreme from the first to the 3rd. And same with the boomboxs 1 to 3... and as for sony I got the xb40 , 41 , 43. And so on. With the 30 models and 20 series. And honestly both companies make amazing portables.. and here recently been picking up the partyboxs iv got the 100 , 110 , 310 , two 710s and two 1,000s. Which I use for my game room 😆 in our new house. I even own some deviant speakers as well which sound very good but the party box 710 n 1000s have stronger lower end. Because of their big size larger woofers n subwoofers. Anyway to the point.... you can't go wrong with either of those speakers the xtreme 3 n the xb43... both sound damn good the sony actually has more cone area with its square woofers which are more woofer like than full range drivers. The motors of the sony speakers are absolutely massive which is why it weighs so much. Put it this way the xb43's square woofers have larger motors than that of the xtreme 2 and original xtreme which was why they weighed more... sony normally uses neo motors on their speakers but to under cut jbl I'm assuming they went with feritte motors instead even the tweeters have ridiculously large motors lol. But the Sony xb43s issue is its passive radiators... as you can see the xtreme 1 2 n 3 have larger radiators on their sides than the xb43.... the radiators must be larger than the woofers almost twice as big to actually be truly effective... even jbls isn't the correct size... but they are larger which tricks the woofers into feeling as if they are in a larger enclosure... and the larger passives move more air around... so the xtreme 3 has a deeper stronger sounding bass... but the xb43 can play lower n stronger in sub bass frequencies which non of the xtremes can do... not even thr boomboxs from jbl can achieve this correctly... which in songs that play 40hz n below the xb43 can Play n not sound bad... the xtreme 3 when attempting this you won't even hear the bass at that low of a frequency... it drops off around 51hz for the xtreme 3 n 2 both... the original xtreme drops of in the upper 50s.. the xb43 drops off around 30hz 25hz... so yeah n the xb43 is louder... but not by much...
