[@indoorkangaroo3431]

Thanks for the honest, no shill reviews Alan. It’s great to have these reviews and have a laugh at the same time. Have watched a heap of your videos and have certainly learned a lot from them. I don’t think I have good ears but now understand that’s a good thing for spending money on speakers. Also learned about stereo, marketing fluff, lack of aux inputs and more. I was after something that looked at home in a living room, had TWS, aux inputs, sounded decent (for the average person). The only downside is that many of the best budget speakers aren’t easily available in Australia or good, cheap speakers have changed since they’ve been released. Had looked at some larger speakers like JBL encore or W-King but they were a little too large or the newer builds weren’t as good as the originals. Ended up getting a pair of Sony XG300’s on sale, they fit my needs. They sound best in TWS at volumes above 50% and fit my needs. Thanks Alan! Oh and some future videos ideas..? The dark side of being an audiophile? (Everything gets more expensive, ignorance is bliss?) Audio myths and facts Setting up Bluetooth speakers for left right stereo aux to a TV (I didn’t see this on KZbin and only really found the answer on old forum posts). Again thanks Alan and hopefully you can buy a pint on me.

[@alanrossreviews]

many thanks for the tip 👌 its nice to get some thanks once in a while 😁 yeah ideas for videos isnt the issue to be honest, its finding the time altogether, i have way too many commitments outside of KZbin. it would be great to being doing daily videos but its not gonna happen sadly. honestly if i can manage a video every two weeks im doing well 😂😂 ive mentioned many times the more you know the harder it will be to find a decent a speaker because the chase is never ending and each unit better costs many more times per unit increment 😢

One thing really odd that I noticed (and it may not even be real) is that after the update, the default sound was not much different but after the update, my custom eq appeared to have much more of an affect on the sound than before the update. Unfortunately that was all subjective as I had no recordings or anything from before the update. The rather ironic thing though is the update broke my Lights. Every 1.5 seconds or so, it just flashes at full brightness regardless of what is going on in the music.

Alan what's the best all rounder small travel speaker in the size of around charge 5, boost etc that's around $50/$60 with a warm lovely deep bass, my main usage will be for office desk usage while working(something that will have full rounded deep bass warm sound at very low volume say 20%), little outdoor fun, travel friendly, most listening volume will be around 20 - 60% I could have gone for the boost going with your recommendation as i can currently get it for $45 but then with what's happening with Soundcore's old vs new products as it happened with boom, I'm not that convinced on buying Soundcore products for now till proven otherwise More power to you Alan! Cheers!

there is nothing like the boost for size and money unless you play near max volume where it has issues because it keeps hold of its bass at the cost of audio elsewhere. the uboom l might be an option now it has app support and custom eq.

Thanks a lot for the great reviews about the Boom 2 plus. I have this and the Stormbox blast at home and will send one back. What I hear from the speaker reflects your review on 100%. Soundcore sounds a bit muddy somehow. Since it just came out, do you think that they soundcore can get rid of „muddiness“ by firmware updates or would you say that has rather something to do with the speakers itself? I’m definitely more into look, feel, app and weight of the soundcore, tbh. Price for both is about the same currently on Amazon in Germany.

Hey Alan, thanks a lot for the update! It's an Important mission to keep consumers updated AFTER the initial launch, you provide us with those! May i ask you a question regarding different speakers? Usually i have a mission when looking for new speakers. Hifi sound, deep bass or pound for buck. But currently i am looking for something different. The most sound out of the smallest speaker, (almost) no matter the price. I contrast to other speakers, i want good portability with max sound. Basically the best "size to sound" ratio which includes more speakers i wouldn't have looked into before. I already have the revolve 1 in this category, and even though it is a single driver speaker, it doesn't disappoint me in that regard, pleasent sound, loud and for the size amazing (too expensive but hey) Another one I didn't have the chance to try yet is the smaller devialet speaker, but that one is more than expensive and also a little bigger. Whats your opinion on my mission, do you have some advice? Thank you in advance :)

[@paisleepunk]

i've got one: it isn't an awful deal on rollback, and i was able to EQ it more to my liking (lots of bass with carefully sculpted mids and highs). for context, i mainly listen to rock, indie, electronic, and the occasional experimental piece. i think the fact that the SE shares the same speaker layout as the original motion boom is its biggest advantage, as it is able to actually showcase a somewhat cohesive stereo image, unlike the boom 2, where the single woofer and two tweeter setup renders music taking advantage of the stereo field in a somewhat odd manner

Do you always use an Android phone when listening to Soundcore speakers?

Don't worry this year or next year the brand nothing it's going to make a speaker or an smart one with AI, and they really hear the community... And fix the bugs as soon as possible and all this stuff.. I got a phone from them and it's really gut.. I recommend the standard one way 90% the people doesn't need more that this phone offer for 250 books

Hey Alan, how do you think? Will they release soon soundcore Anker Motion Boom Plus 2 or not now, not in short future? I know you not owner of company, but believe your prediction will be at least great. I see in UK soundcore Anker Motion Boom Plus is for 129 pounds, not bad, but something itching me to wait little longer. Thanks!

I want to upgrade to the 320s it's just that they're also expensive the 310 cost me $525 each

[@alanrossreviews]

too big for me sadly

[@AbsoluteFidelity]

Then you dont need to watch the reviews here. The 310s will shit on any speaker reviewed by Alan, period. I had a 310s back then, and I heard the 320. Nothing to shout about, the upgrade route would be the 710 or Ultimate.

"alan just enjoy yourself " she says. If you had £150 what bluetooth speaker would you buy, say again for £300 and again if money no object. Thankyou.

[@alanrossreviews]

are we talking for serious listening or for fun and outdoors because that changes everything. i cant tell you money object because funds do not allow me to try the really high end ones and even then it depends on what you are looking for. £150 is easy, id just for blast to go on special offer. but i prefer the go play 3.
