JBL Xtreme 4 Vs Bose Soundlink Max

[@GYMCADDY]

Get Them Here: JBL Xtreme 4: amzn.to/3W8cVC2 Bose Soundlink Max: amzn.to/4cWtWWw

[@The.JZA.]

I think you should run all speakers with stock EQ. If there is a volume disparity, then use an SPL meter to get the volume the same instead of messing with EQ.

[@zlycho1471]

Thankyou for clarifying my days of confusion and unnecessary wait on the Bose sl max, but I had narrowed it down to these two and now I know which one to buy - JBL obviously…thanks gym caddy

The simple rule with Bose: NEVER BUY RETAIL; buy only when on sale!

[@jobenmcquaid6842]

Yeah it’s on sale once a year lol

[@DFlemming]

Or never buy Bose!

[@SarifDayat-z8d]

Why?😅

[@bibleredpill]

Good review until you compared one with adjusted EQ. However, I've always found JBL emphasis on loud, not quality always producing harsh mids. Bose is more refind, warm and musical.

[@peterjonker4795]

I will need to compare them myself in the shop. I like Bose. Bought the Bose acoustimass speakers in 1989 and they still work. The sound is still unbelievable and people wonder how this sound can come out at these small speakers.. Also have the soundlink mini since 2015. It refuses to break down and I take it everywhere. Bose stands for quality that lasts, so that's the reason I tend to go for the Bose. But in the end the sound quality when comparing them in the shop will be the deciding factor.

I disagree that the JBL sounded better. If you just want loud for the beach you don’t necessarily care about quality as much. Maybe look at Soundcore Boom or Extreme 4 for that purpose.

I have both. Use the JBl for the beach because I feel it more durable but honestly the Bose have a better sound. My think it’s the fabric on the jbl give resistance to the sound and you can hear it. However if you want real sound just buy a Sonos eras 300 not audiophiles or portable but cheap for its real hifi quality sound.

[@Mattijs89]

Hard to decide which one is actually better sounding. I have a lot of JBL Speakers, but for these 2... I'd actually grab the Bose (on sale), because the bass is soooo much better tuned than the bass on the Xtreme4. You absolutely don't get any kick bass from the Xtreme4 (humming bass), while you get a lote more clean tight bass on the Bose. Also the highs on the Bose are much cleaner. Less present, but not as harsh (sissling) as on the Xtreme4. Woud like to hear a bit more instruments on the Bose indeed, but I can not help but feel that the mids on the Xtreme4 are a bit too harsh sounding and in combination with the 'off bass' it sounds less good than the Bose. Just my opinion. I will definitely check the Bose out, because when it would be around 300,- EUR, I think its price would be a lot more legit. As far as I can hear now... it sounds quite balanced and I'd like to know what more the EQ can offer, in the Bose app. Quite a good chance I will pick one up sometime! Thanks for the comparison!

[@dr150]

The Bose is currently on sale for Black Friday on the Bose site for $300. For new members that register, you can get a 10% coupon to make it $270. 👍 That's the price I recently paid.

[@Seattle808]

Why bass +4 on the Bose but no custom EQ being raised on the X4? Seems sketchy….

I've tried both and the JBL is better. Handles bass better with less distortion and is clearer and more refined, especially with treble. Better instrument separation too.

[@CamHuntt]

I returned the xtreme 4 because I really hated when you'd go higher on the volume the bass would literally just disappear. Even while plugged in, just would leave around 80% vol. Picking up the bose to see if it handles the bass better.

[@isc_tee]

Honestly, i hate it when the bass has to be too much... I like a balanced sound signature. Obviously the Bose will sound better to many because of the prominent bass which is not the absolute indicator of sound quality... JBL serves just right, but they are both great sounding, depends on your preference.

[@kingju1ius]

I think this is a really good review, but i dont appreciate you changing the stock eq. You wither customize both or none at all. The bose speaker had a completely unfair advantage and i cant honestly compare the bass when one of them is literally boosted. Why not boost the jbl too?

[@TheKingAmeer]

For those who don't know JBL is only loud but Bose has that surround sound which is great for movies. For example, my parents have both full-size SUVs the Toyota Sequoia with JBL and the Nissan Armada with Bose speakers and I could tell you the Bose is way better. Lol my brother has the JBL Charge 5 and I have the Bose Soundlink Flex the flex has more bass and more surround especially when placed near a wall, I can't say that for JBL.

I have a JBL Charge 5 and it crackles. It's the BT. I have tried with multiple devices and it does it with all of them. I'm going to return it and get something different. Is the BT on the JBL Xtreme 4 stable? In the sound test I kinda preferred the Bose TBH. The JBL sounds clear but a bit thin i.e. not much bass. The Bose sounds thiccc and when I listened to it in the shop it sounded a lot better than what it does in your recordings for some reason.

[@TubeThrash]

bose use their research in psychoacoustics for dsp and tuning. a microphone is not a human ear so it does not record audio the same as we hear it. bose tunes the left and right channels differently to achieve a large stereo separation feeling. you can only experience the bose soundlink max in person to truly appreciate it sound quality

The JBL delay is almost 2 seconds when pair in stereo for watch8ng movies...

Tbh, the Jbl sounds “tinny”, like someone is singing into a can. Plus, I was more 😅interested in hearing the different presets on the jbl. The only thing that sets these guys apart are the sound codecs. Other than that, they seem to be pretty close. The Bose is overpriced and I really do wish they would have added a mid, to this speaker.

[@megakebab1702]

The jbl xtreme 4 loses it's all bass at high volumes and pushes mids and highs a lot. That's why you get the extra loudness. The bose keeps that bass all the way, but it reduces mids and upper mids whith a 3khz peak, and that's why it sounds "hollow" as you said.. hopefully they fix this problem. But sound quality wise the xtreme 4 isn't necessarily better. It's a different tuning.
