[@ametalman66]

Thank you for the review. I have 2 pairs of Soundcore by Ander headphones and I love their sound. I have wanted to get a portable speaker and now that Soundcore are in the game I might get one of these.

[@stuartdarling1620]

Just ordered one off the back of this review... I'm sick of listening to horrible phone speaker sound when I'm teaching. Myself and my singing/piano students will thank you!

[@Ricky_RSC]

Nice to see a portable speaker review, as a bboy (breakdance) and audio entusiast is good to see this content. There are some other cheaper options with good sound and value, with their own strenghts. It would be interesting to see more of this content here 😄 It would be nice to have a volume level refference for the frequency response measurements though, hopefully under 80% ,over that (or sometimes even at lower volume %), most bluetooth portable speakers start dropping off the bass and sometimes also do weird things with the mids and highs, DSP does something like that even in airpods for what i have read.

[@BootJamesOut]

Hello folks Just my gut feeling. A few other brand set the volume limit before the sound starts to go downhill cheezzee. This way no one can say it sounds bad. Quote Bruce Lee. Protect Yourself at all times. Your Name. Hall of fame not hall of shame. Ride Easy

[@Po3try27]

Bro you giving out all the flaws of other ''gimmicky'' items, shows exactly that you're making the right points about what makes this one speaker good. Thanks for the review I bought the x600 and I really like it. I definitely recommend tweaking the EQ you can definitely make it sound better, more suited to your own taste.

[@j-w-67]

I have a pair tws stereo....sounds amazing. Love it🎧👍

[@diujay]

Which one x600 pair ?

[@MaddyIndia]

nice, fun review man. What da ya think about Klipsch Detroit?

[@MrCyberSlacker]

I bought 2. Paired, they are off the charts amazing.

[@BR.]

So can you have 2, one playng the left channel and the other one the right one?

[@angelaeasthom6549]

bought 2 as well. is it that much better than just one?

[@steveh545]

Minor nitpick, but wish the handle folded down, out of sight. Still, if I were to buy a BT speaker, you’ve made the choice easy.

[@gme10955]

I'd like to compare it to what I consider one of the best Bluetooth speakers out there, the TDK Trek Max A34. It doesn't have the spacial feature, but it sounds incredible for a blue tooth speaker,. especially the bass. It's also built like a brick sh*t house, and water resistant.

[@mikehancock6280]

I have both A34 and X600 and though the TDK is a great speaker the X600 is much better in every aspect.

[@VuNguyen-mh4oo]

May I know if the handle is user removable?

[@mattmastrandrea3965]

A few extra benefits of Soundcore products are an amazing warranty, and crazy good battery performance. Soundcore has replaced a few of my products well after the one year mark, at absolutely no cost to me. I love their Liberty Pro3 headphones, partially because the noise-cancelling is amazing, but the app also creates a custom EQ based on a hearing test it performs on you. Their parent company being Anker, the batteries in all their products last way longer than they should.

Is the Motion x600 better than the Dockin D Fine 2+ ?

[@patrikbjorling4391]

Interesting..many brands does not stand by their product then?

[@Jayiyagi]

I can’t know for sure why they decided to pull right after I asked to test the product first to see if it is something I would like to cover but it is kinda sketchy

[@BootJamesOut]

Hello folks. I have try Harman Kardon GO Play in strero in AB amp and D class. They sound great on stands in listen room. Not so good running on battery 8 D size they roll of the bass. I'm interested in owning this new born baby as I had try so many other brands B&W Zeppelin I did a magic show and saw it into peice. Two mains and a sub, control unit power amp AB. Altec M7 boomy bass. Kicker too. My only beef is why do the do not give the plug in cords any protection or use magnetic like an USB cable. I very hard on things. Any portable devices I use a rack to lift unit 7 inches higher then a counter top or table or desk to clean up the bass refraction wave. Questions time batterys life. 12 hours at 1/4 volume no boost. It's a portable it gets cold in Canada no information if use outside at zero C or 32 F. I can see many of those units being duct tape on E-bikes ( hint for sales) and protect plug in cords. Or at lease supply cables with 90 degree cables. Any new products must be better and or cheaper then now out there. Jay I'm wondering if Danny at GR will do a mod. Cost is $269 can with back to school $50 coupon Ride Easy

[@DNGR369]

I've always avoided Sonos as they still sound cheap to me, and I have even preferred less expensive speakers to them. This is perfect timing as the portable market was getting less attention and only a few brands involved.

[@stopher1971]

What’s that MTM behind you?

[@donlew8222]

Android vs iphone bluetooth sound differences?? Needed android for the download setup??

[@henrichandrew]

The disadvantages of Apple gadgets including iphone, they never compatible with LDAC codec, because they are always being exclusive with their own bluetooth codecs. One of the Soundcore advantage and sound quality if you connect it to bluetooth sources via LDAC codec.

[@wric01]

Use case on old car , awesome.

[@baycchief3785]

Why are all of the talk about speakers but no real audition or real comparision even it's on youtube audio? Other audio channels do provide a realistic recording/listening so the audience would get at least an idea.

[@Jayiyagi]

[@newdevilman1167]

Maybe you should watch the entire video and write the comment?

[@baycchief3785]

@@newdevilman1167 I'm talking in general as well. Many high end or costly ones didn't have any demo. Also, to have a good comparison, it would be ideal to compare from one's sound to another w/ some sort of audition. I think that woud add interesting value and draw more audience to the content creator.

[@AlejandroSergei]

priced at $290 (CAD), this speaker falls short in terms of audio quality. despite initially sounding good at lower volumes, the overall experience diminishes beyond 50%, with noticeable deterioration in mids and bass, basically an ear piercing sound profile. additionally, the spatial audio feature, while enhancing the sound, sacrifices bass and audio separation, making it seem more like a gimmick. considering the current price, it may not be the best value (unless priced at $150 CAD); opting for a pair of Motion+ speakers would likely provide a superior overall sound experience.

[@BaoZUong]

Got this on amazon day for 150 dollars and got blew away by the sound quality. The sound is so crisp and clear.

[@leodesforges161]

I am running two JBL Charge 5's set in stereo using the app WITH the special location-EQ mode turned on. I'm pretty impressed given how small and durable they are. Can anyone who has two JBL's AND the X600 comment on the sound differences?

Finally a review of an affordable Hifi Gear.

[@SpaceOnion01]

Please reply someone if I invest my money on this speaker will it be worth it for a long time use, like for 5 years??? If anyone has it will it be worth it????😮😮😮

[@Jayiyagi]

5 years is a long time but if you don't abuse it and nothing goes wrong internally, it should last you that long

[@briancampbell6898]

Nice video, appreciated as I am an audiophile but wanted a portable version.. The B&W A7 sounds far better but at much higher price and not portable.. The X600 is te only choice currently for portable battery audio... IMO.. I have a minirig setup that sounds better but it is multi parts, 2 drivers, 2 subs.. sound amazing but for a single box, easy portable VS a complicated 4 part system, meaning 2 subs, 2 drivers... The x600 is very close to sound quaity of a much more complex setup.. Makes sense to save the money and just stay simple with outstanding sound quality...

[@Station2066]

Elegant looking yes. Poor quality sound. On all settings. There's just no way of getting a balanced sound.

[@jesusk1358]

Spatial audio is not a new technology, I am afraid.. It's as old as my great grandfather.

[@peterthomson6457]

Did your great grandmother have a Bluetooth Speaker 😂😂😂 That's the new tech spacial in a BT Speaker

[@speakerblowupmanlee5921]

Ngl for a $200 speaker it sounds pretty terrible.

[@BostonMike68]

I have a soundcore Bluetooth and ear buds and they are the best for the money. . I design and build my own speakers and spend some money on gear but for a Bluetooth for work or the beach they are definitely the best bang for the buck

[@planetag310]

Jay, I received the X600 from Amazon today and am very disappointed in the shrill brightness of this speaker. My ears hurt and I had to turn it off. I really wanted to like it, but the bass was also underwhelming. I played with the EQ, but it was still too bright for me. Would playing it over a few days tone down the brightness - like breaking it in?

[@why-why-whywhywhy]

Aside from the indestructible tank like build of this puppy, I am no nearly as impressed with the sound coming out of mine as 99% of the people who have reviewed it here on *KZbin* seemingly are. So much so, that if I could make the money I initially spent on it back, I would do so in a heart beat.

[@doctoribanez]

Im on the quest for the best sound quality speaker. I had a bose but the battery died making it not work at all, even plugged in. I had a jbl flip 5 and a jbl extreme 3 but its loud but doesn't really sound that great to me

[@cheekiereynolds]

The tub scene….priceless.😂 So of course I got one. Thank you!

[@zivkovicable]

Worse than the much cheaper motion boom...Two mark one motion booms paired blow this our of the water, for less $.

[@LostMerkaba]

Crystal clear high end (to the point I'm hearing things in my music I've never heard before) which is awesome for Jazz, but pretty poor bass response (at low volumes) which makes listening to Hardcore (kickdrums) and dance a bit underwhelming imo.

[@planetag310]

They should have made this speaker larger with better bass. Maybe in the next iteration.

[@larrywade1189]

like the look of the x600😍😍

[@johnmoreno5965]

Okay alright heheh settle down that was funny. The speaker is water proof was a good joke 🤣

[@ianorigbo7617]

If really good I may just give this a go and forget everything else.😊

[@Jayiyagi]

well no. Like I said, it is still not a replacement for a stereo set up. It's just a really good portable bluetooth speaker

[@Simplyveej]

Thank you for the review. Sorry if I missed this, but did you try using them as a stereo pair? Meaning pairing two of them together? Would you recommend such a set up and is it worth it?

[@masterazlan6999]

I owned TWS frm soundcore.. Long time ago.. N still nice.. A40 space.

[@TeknoOrganicVirus]

Soundcore is super legit. I love their products

[@K0NVICTx]

Can you pair with other anker speakers? I have 2x Flare 2’s that I currently use and was going to buy the Anker Motion Boom Plus to pair with the Flares, unless this works with it

[@waynedexter]

The Motion X600 is NOT part of Soundcore’s PartyCast ecosystem. Why not get the Rave Neo 2. That speaker will pair and compliment the Flare 2s nicely

[@eagleeatsmonkey3621]

nice

[@kingkobra1956]

I purchased this speaker yesterday after watching your review. It arrived this morning and the setup was insanely quick and easy. I've been listening to it at low volume to break it in and I'm impressed by the crystal clear sound it produces. I also have numerous other top tier speakers and my favorite is the Charge 5 which I will be comparing it to. Your video was spot on in your assessment of this speaker. I love toys and this is another great one to add to my collection. I always look forward to your videos and you do not disappoint. Well done.

[@williamhall3043]

You realise you’re meant to break speakers in at 75% right

[@savvasneophytou5664]

So mate, what's your feedback compared to Charge 5?

[@grssu]

the charge 5 is not a top tier speaker, not even close.

[@Jamy4ya]

Jbl Bluetooth speakers are just crap. Period. Just over boosted bass speakers..

[@MaddyIndia]

@@Jamy4ya ya too much bass in jbl

[@chrisdwyer1477]

I was actually pretty disappointed with this speaker. Bass distorts at higher volumes, and sounds odd to me. Ive returned the speaker twice to make sure i didnt have a defective unit... They all sounded the same. The spacial audio trick is nice and at lower volumes this speaker is quite pleasant... But i just dont understand the hype.

[@687donny]

What kinda music you music to? Hard rock when they scream every lyric? This speaker doesn't really distort much at high volumes listening to r&b and rap

Well, you convinced me Jay. I need something for hiking and camping.

[@RichardSparks1970]

Thanks for your review of this product. As a bit of an update to your review, as one of a few options I have heard of, you can now purchase quite cheaply a program for your PC (and Mac I believe) software that allows you to take advantage of the LDAC codec, that was previously only available to Android users. It works great and anyone who owns this speaker (or any other device that takes advantage of LDAC) would be mad not to take advantage of this option which will let you expand the ways in which you can use this great speaker in the way it was intended.

[@michaelorton9887]

When True surround sound is obtainable from One speaker 🙂not enclosure with multiple speakers, but a true monaural source 🙂 🙂

You won't be regret by taking the Soundcore Motion X600. Especially the wider sound stage and the brightness of mid and high frequency. Also you can save your penny much.

[@PhilTParker]

I bought two Bose Soundlink Revolve II speakers. I watched another video comparing that speaker to this one…I ordered two of these immediately. One pair goes back…we will see. I will say that I LOVE the built in EQ feature in the app. Love the USBC option to charge it with as well. I also like knowing it is ranked #1. And by the way…I paid $149 on Amazon for each of the two units…nice savings there!

Not sure but is there a Sound quality issue/difference when using Bluetooth from an iPhone?

[@Jayiyagi]

The LDAC is only limited to android. With iphone, you still get bluetooth connectivity but not the LDAC that they advertise

[@williamhall3043]

But what no one tells you is with Ldac (which is not truest lossless) you have to keep your phone within 18inches of the speaker and the closer the better, but a 2m aux lead and a lightning adaptor you’ll get better sound at more range
