Sony XB41 VS JBL Xtreme VS Sony XB40 - The JBL Xtreme 2 Already Has Some Competition

[@Turtlemilk]

Returned my xb40 to get the XB41 today. No regrets, way much better in terms of appearance, higher mids, blue tooth connectivity, just everything about the 41 was a much better upgrade.

[@livewire4836]

Turtlemilk - but not bass😊

[@livewire4836]

Anime4 Mii lol

[@Turtlemilk]

ImBAD shah you’re right not bass, but it sounds a lot more muffled than the XB41. For me, I’d rather have higher mids over bass, that’s my preference.

[@livewire4836]

Turtlemilk - im always right... Cuz im daa boss😎

[@Turtlemilk]

ImBAD shah 🤔 you ok? Tf you flexing for? I’m sharing my thoughts.

[@lordadams5762]

The only downside for me on the older version is it’s charging port/charger

[@rmmboss2953]

adam young X ye true other wise it’s not really aa huge difference

[@markozsky]

thanks for mentioning it charge with micro usb cable.very details review

[@NastekBe]

The xb40 is My favorite

[@MadePotions]

it the worst out of all of them are you only saying that because thats the one you own

[@LokeKQ]

@@MadePotions nope, xb41 worst sounding but slightly better bass than 40

[@josephbaby5757]

You are most dumbest guy ever you don't even know what music is I use marshalls and Bose dude , I pick sony xb40 for the realistic sound there jbls always feels like someone has installed an eq on them where's the mid and lows on them , sony makes the best sounding devices at affordable end the audio feels near to my marshalls ( near by 75%) but hey consider the price marshalls are thrice expensive than sony as well as Bose , jbls are like okey okey but I do like Harman kardon their parent brand

[@q-sup9108]

41 the best!!

[@LokeKQ]

@@q-sup9108 design wise yes

[@chrismole5245]

I think if the xb41 had 2 tweeters that kick in when extra bass mode is off and the live sound was better this would be the perfect speaker

[@philthyphill8753]

Sound the same. I wouldn’t spend the money on 41. I have the 40 and I love it. And I like the style of the body better on the 40 than 41.

[@jackjones4152]

Philthy Phill depends on the ruggedness you need. I think the 41 is more worth it because it can take more abrasions

[@n33rq18]

I too have xb 40

[@ashtonmitch9969]

The 40 is more crisp sounding than the 41 but the 41 has richer bass so its just all in the person's preference

[@joshuahubert692]

Philthy Phill no you don’t your just poor

[@vaibhavsingh8521]

Is sony xb41 louder than JBL Xtreme? Plz reply soon

[@Katsudon96]

i found with the Sound Centre on phone helps with the bass, mids and treble a lot as each can be changed. turning off the Extra Bass mode as well, sounds much better than the JBL Xtreme overall (i own both). i picked my XB41 up for AU$202 down from AU$279

[@abhidahiya4007]

Well you can change Equalizer from settings in sony speakers, so turning down bass and turning up mids and highs shouldn't be a problem. Also i like the design of new speakers much more. Older ones looked so old fashioned

[@etexon]

Hi ya mate just wanna ask if I have four Sony srs xb41 and play it at all the same time, will it sound as a stereo sound? Thanks very much

[@martinmalak542]

I have confussion about the comparison of xb 40 and xb41. I cant decide which I want to buy. The xb 40 costs 120 € and xb 41 costs 170 €. So that is a 50 euro gap between those two . And the difference between them is that xb 41 is a little bit louder, has better LED and built - up quality, full water resistance and micro USB charge port. It has a terrible live sound mode, but I do not really care, I am kinda a party guy and all I want to have is BASS. I dont know if these features are enough to pay 50 € (57 USD) more. Could you please help me to decide? Also I heard some rumours that xb 41 turns off bass boost when it reaches maximum volume of the speaker ( 100) . Is it true?

[@benz2much]

I have last year's model, the Sony xb40. Bought this year's update, the xb41, while I love the full waterproofing and the new design, it's too muffled compared to the xb40. (yes, I use the app equalizer to bump up the treble & mids) I returned to Best Buy. I then bought a secondary xb40 from someone on Facebook Marketplace for $150, stereo sound now with both-it's AWESOME. Now I just seen at Costco they have a pallet of these Sony xb40's for only $109.99!! What a deal!

[@leonmac]

[@rony8594]

Hey did you get any solution for the 30% battery issue where it lowers the volume automatically?

[@rony8594]

Any suggestions guys? Need help with this. It's irritating.

[@robhova]

As much of a douche I'm going to sound for this but, not buying the speaker would be the only way to fix it. It's not an issue it's a battery saving problem nobody wanted. I have the xb30 and I used to hate it but I've come to terms with it and appreciate knowing the battery is dying without an annoying voice telling me recharge battery or X% battery remaining every time it goes down 1%.

[@meegabyte]

Xb41 has any upgrades in sound when we comparing this with the old one? And Bass is better in xb41 or in Xtreme? Sorry for my english....

[@charlesreed8420]

The 41 is slightly louder than the 40, slightly less distortion, slightly less treble, and it's waterproof. I would definitely get the 41 over the Xtreme

[@meegabyte]

Charles Reed Thanks a lot! Do you have xb41 or you ever heard xb41 in real live? And sorry for questions in every video, but i'm must decide between xb41, xb40 and Jbl Xtreme and it isn't a simple decision... Beacuse, you know, xb41 has nice bass, but I need deep bass, even on max, so it can produce it? And I've heard many bad opinions about xb41, it lacks more treble than older one, it's even worse than last year model... After that i'm confused. And my colleagues tell to me: you have to take Jbl Xtreme! It has a clear sound, something Sony has never done with its products. Why do you need bass when the sound is muffled?Af ter that opinions i'm confused more, which speaker is right for me... Of this three which loudspeaker works best at maximum volume? I mean bass and volume, but those high frequencies which make sound cleaner also ...

[@charlesreed8420]

Meegabyte Studio I bought the xb41, and it sounds really nice. Btw it isn't as muffled as people say. I wasn't able to hear the xb40 in person, but from what I've heard, it sounds pretty similar to the 41. The jbl Xtreme has adequate highs, but it lacks the low bass notes, and often comes over sounding boomy and not very nice. And don't forget about the battery problems with the Xtreme, I wouldn't take the risk with it. To he honest, getting either the 40 or 41, you won't be disappointed, they are both very good speakers.

[@meegabyte]

Charles Reed So, in your opinion, which speaker plays better, it has a better sound?

Before I got the srs-x77 and now I got xb41 which is much better and I love it. Especially outside the sound is loud and hearable from long distance. Srs-x77 has a subwoofer and tweeter so voice was more clear and it was better for movies but still I don't regret this change. XB41 is more enjoyable so go and get it 💪💪💪

From me xb41

[@dcentral]

XB41 is a huge failure. If you need to play on high volume for a party, you will only get 4 hours maximum and the speaker automatically drops to low volume. And the worst design failure is the speaker does not play on high volume if you plug it into an outlet. You are stuck waiting 5 hours charging before you can use the speaker normally.

[@SonyEnthusiast]

Just because you did not charge it fully before your long ass party does not mean it's a failure. Mine is great and long lasting during parties, etc.

[@dcentral]

HR-Vex Uhg, mine was fully charged! It doesn’t last more than 5 hours on high volume. Look at Amazon reviewers with people reporting same problems. The issue is not even with battery capacity but the fact that once the battery is at 50% the speaker automatically switches to low volume but you can’t play on high volume when the speaker is plugged in and charging. You have to wait for full recharge to play on high again.

[@SonyEnthusiast]

o War Eagle o no be honest, it really won't be a drastic change. They claimed "more bass", and new drivers, all that means is more sound distortion. The only real upgrade is the new drivers, ip67 waterproof (XB41 has it too) and a bottle opener in the shoulder strap. DATS IT. It's going to be over hyped and overpriced.
