Sony ULT Field 7 vs W-King X20 🤯 Is the Sony Worth 2X The Price of The W-King? 😲 Let's Find Out

[@kendrickcontent]

Just ordered my X20 can’t wait and glad to know it was a firmware update to fix muffled highs with bass boost

[@tuningblondin6270]

я тоже заказал викинг,жду не дождусь❤🙂когда приедит.

[@Satorikn]

With the X20, the bass boost is just a modified EQ Curve, what i mean that's what it is in most speakers, but for instance, with JBL Partyboxes, Bass Boost Modes is more than that, you cannot achieve the same results using either the JBL App EQ or a Third Party EQ, there is something on the DSP that modifies the output mode, in this case for the X20 you can achieve the same level of Bass with the EQ, without the Bass Boost mode while keeping the rest of the frequencies clean. The Firmware upgrade fixed it, but you can literally set it up for the same amount of default bass with or without Bass Boost mode as it's basically a EQ2 Mode that you toggle, not a different instruction for the DSP but it's great that W-King modified it to make it more useable, i think it was a great improvement but i still prefer to setup the EQ from the app with BB Mode Off.

[@stormlight1553]

@@Satorikn Don't think this is correct. I have played with the EQ for hours to get the same amount of base without bass boost on. (Pre new firmware) Could never get the same amount out of it.

[@ComeAtMe]

I wish companies like Wking could use an original in house design I see so many no name speakers and they all almost resemble JBL speakers and when I see a brand like Wking do it also I just can’t help but put them in the same category of knockoff speakers even though they use better materials it just makes them feel cheap and un original.

[@Satorikn]

I mean the X20 has a triangular shape and the cylinder curve is more pronounced, it is definitely "inspired" on the boombox. But we can then also agree that the Ult Field 7 and the XG series from sony are as well, side passive radiators, front firing woofers and also with the battery powered XP and XV series compared to JBL Partybox line. Its just a winning formula, airplanes look similar because they work better like that.

[@VRJ-k8q]

JBL doesn’t own the world dude, fanboys are hilarious

[@SageBlueMusic]

@@VRJ-k8q I am no fanboy of JBL, but I have noticed that there are a lot of new speakers using the same drivers you find in JBL Extremes (zealot s79 I think?), Drivers from the Boombox's (Tribit Stormbox Blast, which I own), and many copy the designs of the Partybox series (WKING T11 & T9 Pro, Hisense Party Rocker, Philips X5206, and more).

[@JefryLopez-sf4sk]

Yes

[@ShowthatSpeaker]

The Sony have more details and quality in all frequency ❤, But for the price the W King do a good job 👍

[@Satorikn]

This one was definitely interesting and one i was looking forward too but wasn't expecting yet, but they are on the hot boombox segment along with the JBL BB3 and it's interesting the top 3 are so close with different variations, but comparing these two the Sony is definitely more refined than the W-King on presentation, on sound its hard to tell through a video as I've learned sound has many layers more than just the frequencies a microphone can capture, but from what i get the W-King is still slightly more V-Shaped and while Sony has moved towards the V-Shape is still slightly warmer. Being so close the main factor would be price. If both were the same price i'd probably go with the more refined presentation of the Sony as a package, but being so distant in price, i'd go with the X20. I am not saying the Sony sounds better or worse than the X20 but the whole thing looks just more refined, however the X20 hits a little bit deeper from what i got and Sony is known to throttle the Lows when the volume goes up, very known with their XP500 and XP700 while on battery power.

[@darrenwipf9868]

So how much bass does the Sony have at 80 percent volume can you feel it

[@JaysStraightUpReviews]

I can't say I actually felt it. At higher volume the Sony starts losing it's bass output compared to lower volume levels.

[@darrenwipf9868]

Could you remove the cover of the Sony so we can see the driver setup

[@JaysStraightUpReviews]

I don;'t do speaker tear-downs. In this video, at 0:25, it shows the driver layout. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqfZlXapj9CggLs

Same as XG500

[@dieguitto98]

Imagine two x20 sounding together

[@jedolivier2688]

2 X20 for the price is a much better value & overall more volume & loudness, compared to the SONY for $499.99.

@@JaysStraightUpReviews 2 x20’s still better deal than BB3 hands down any league.

[@ericmartinez4897]

The W-king definitely sounds good enough to save half the money. The Sony is not all that much better for twice the price. The Sony is no doubt better sounding but NOT by twice as much. I would wait til the Sony is on sale. Not paying 500$ for it. But a great Speaker.

[@luisgarza8636]

which speaker is louder

[@Satorikn]

According to the meter Jay showed the X20 is a couple dbs louder.

[@JaysStraightUpReviews]

Yeah, the X20 was a bit louder. I think an outdoor test between these two, with the Sony using ULT2, might be a little different result. ULT2 is more of an outdoor mode and does bump the output up some.

[@chrisy4011]

X20 by far

[@ronaldtuscano7138]

Can you pair 1 x20 and 1 d20?

[@JaysStraightUpReviews]

You cannot.

[@jedolivier2688]

This is one of the closest comparisons that you’ve ever done. Good one, Jay. I watched Dominik’s review of these 2 speakers in an outdoor comparison, & he had the bass boost on the X20. I made the comment that if you take the bass boost off & adjust the 10 band EQ properly, it would sound much better, giving the Sony a real competition.😅

Thanks. I have no idea who Dominik is , however. 🤔

Also it’s cheaper than them both!

Does the Sony have ldac?

[@smilingface2006]

the bass of sony is always behind, it just always had the overall sound quality as claimed, but not this time for ult field 7. it doesn't sound round and full, watch or compare it with tribit. the only track i find descent through sony is that metal song. though it doesn't sound muffled, it's that w-king sounded muffled. i'd say they'd sound close if you compare it with xg500. but w-king is far cheaper thing, far smaller company compared to sony. it's such a hype sony trying out this new ult series but i'll still skip this one. tower10 lacks internal battery and field1 isn't worth replacing my xb23 yet.

Im not sure yet if I will like the sound of the ult 7. It might be too harsh for my taste. But I will check and then decide if I keep it. I like the design with the upright positioning possibility and I already have some sony speakers to pair with (xb33 and xb43)

[@paulburris5451]

The business of subliminal advertising is extensively adjunctive to company quality in the many products they sell. For example, JBL, on the subconcious level, is presenting "blowjob" with it's mix of letters-as well as "job" (JB), "blow" and "blue" (BL), are designed by psychologists hired by JBL, to sell their products and keep buyers loyal. The more successful the advertising and psychological theme of the speaker or what-have-you, the more money and thought the company dumps into their products (that is, if it's a truly good company).

As an aside, I believe "Sony" a psychological concept brought to life by Father Freud's "depth research" exploiters expert in selling Oedipus fantasies to oblivious male consumers.
