For me I've found that the Tribit StormBox Micro 2 for portability with the StormBox Blast for group listening have been the perfect combination. The Micro 2 for it's size is a remarkable speaker in terms of features and sound, I actually carry it on my manbag everywhere I go because of how small yet mighty it is. And the Blast? Need I say anything about that? I find it shocking how being a long time JBL person having owned, Lord, tons of them, that some no-name brand comes along and sweeps them off their feet. I only recommend Tribit these days...especially for the price! The Blast constantly being under $150 on Amazon is an insane bargain! Anyways, thanks Alan for all these reviews!

Hi Mr Ross...i mean Alan😊 Thanks as always for your in-depth reviews always with a touch of humor. I just saw Soundcore posted the new Soundcore Boom 2 plus to be launched June 29th. I'm sure they sent out review units to a few Bluetooth reviewers.Hopefully this time you got one in advance of the reveal date. Then again maybe they avoid hardcore detailed reviews before the speaker is released. But I hope they send you one at some point..either way I'm sure you will get your hands on one, maybe two if they decide to send one after you already bought one😅 I've been eagerly waiting for the upgrade to my MB+. I just hope it delivers the goods. It will most likely be facing serious competition from the likes of W-king X20 and I'm sure there will be a Tribit Stormbox Blast(2) around the corner as well. I'm certain you will get one of those in advance of the reveal. I've known of this speaker for many many months.."had to pull my zipper up". But glad it is finally here just in time for the beach trips and backyard summer fun. Will definitely be getting it.

I have the Bose Soundlink Max from the Amazon Vine program. It is on the level of a JBL xtreme 2 in terms of bass loudness. It goes a bit deeper in bass. It has a very strong stereo effect that for the most part sounds really good. Occasionally I hear a track that sounds WAY too diffuse. The major downside is that it is marketed as a party speaker when it doesn't stand a chance against a Stormbox Blast or a JBLPartybox 100. Under two steps above mid volume it sounds really really good. Above that the bass stops and it gets screechy. At max it sounds horrible. Also ther are certain bass notes that overdrive the woofer like G-Easy-Tumblr Girls opening bass kick. It's an overpriced mixed bag. It is best for more lower volume listening with the deeper bass and strong stereo effect than a party speaker. Sorry for long novel comment

@@alanrossreviews What I seek is a Charge 3 / Flip 4 sucessor lol, with passives on the side, with a good stereo sound. 😋 (No the Uboom L doesn't count no matter the firmware) Only Bose have figured the 360° design, everyone else is struggling and we're getting speakers that sound inconsistent depending on where we are around it. With a traditional stereo design, there's no ambiguity, you face the speaker, it sounds good or not, the end 😂

@@alanrossreviews Bose speakers sound unpleasant to me, never heard one where I didn’t hear a big hole in the mids and way too sharp treble. And minirigs are great, but the fact you need several units and a sub turn me off. I have Charge 5 that I really like, but it’s very much mono sounding. I’d love to get a good stereo speaker for the size, but I see none that are truly interesting. Oh well, I keep hope, Stormbox 2 won’t be the one though 🤷♂️

Come on Alan, I'm getting just a little impatient with how you drag on these review videos. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the detail, because no one else is doing it. But for the sake of the sanity of all of us who tribally support you, find ways to condense it please. 43 minutes for this video is just way too long. It should really be half that. And you'd still be able to output the vast majority of your findings. Your viewership will increase and you'll turn on a lot more people to the fun of critical listening and analysis of small form factor portable speakers. If this criticism goes in one ear and out the other, so be it. I'll still watch you and skip ahead or play at 1.5x speed. And I'll feel guilty as I always do, like I'm cheating you.

Alan should still make his videos as long as they are now, but maybe cut most interesing moments and upload them as youtube shorts?
