🤔Which Is Better From Behind? Also Is That The Bass Port? Sony xp700 vs JBL Partybox 310

The SONY SRS XP700 has a tweeter in the back and in this video, we compare it to the JBL PARTYBOX 310 which doesn't have a tweeter in the back, ALSO... Is that a bass port in the back on the sony? I have a test to help us find out.

[@felixf5211]

Some designs include a tweeter in the back to add to the sense of ambiance to the sound. It is not meant to be listened to on-axis. Edit: the cover over the port is likely in place to reduce chuffing.

[@collinm.2408]

I believe the back firing tweeter is designed to use reflected sound to create a better soundstage (like on some vintage pioneer speakers and some Revel speakers) and due to that (and the port on the JBL), I think they’re designed to be placed against a wall and not listened to 360 degrees, even the SONY (not much mids). I also think the port cover is to try and make sure nothing gets into the speaker. Edit: I think the bass boost modes are mixed up- I believe the SONY has “MEGA BASS” and the PARTYBOX simply has “BASS BOOST” in level 1 or level 2

[@supremevisor]

PB310's bass is in another league! And that back tweeter doesnt change the game...

[@chrisvondoom3679]

If you like a balanced sound that tweeter definitely changes the game.. Yea that 310’s bass is stupid good but it drowns out the highs and mids. If you actually like listening to all parts of a song and not just be a bass junkie then Sony’s overall sound quality is better balanced.

No one beats JBL in deep bass, also not Teufel & Soundbox. But the Sony sounds really good and this tweeter at the back is a great Idea, especially for outdoor partys. The people can dance arround the box and have always the same sound, top!👍 But what is on higher levels? Reduce the sony it's bass on max volume? My party box 300 never reduce or push something and i have always a great festival feeling...

[@finn__3300]

Fun fact: the ‘bass port😂’ is on the back because it keeps the speaker slimmer and prevents the lower freq tones from gettinf muffled away over the distance. The closer it is the better it will sound unless its distance is to short to let the sound bounce trough the cone

I’m a proud owner off two 310s and around 7 other jbl Bluetooth speakers ..I’m still going to buy more..my first was two xtreams back in summer 2015 .. been collecting since then..but if I really want to get extra loud I hook up one of my rcf 715a mk4s to my 300 watt powerbank 33ah and put them on my sack truck some hold their ears if I put it up past half way volume, the rcfs are raw pit bull loudness but still sound undistorted because of the years rcf have been in the game, they used to supply the parts for mackie when mackie was good..the jbls 310s play wounderful but are more for not damaging ear drums take it from me I have around 25 odd good speakers ..including the professional rcf nx32s and rcf 8003s but since the pandemic those monsters have stayed locked up in my storage room.

If you had to pick between the two (they cost the same) would you get the XP700 or XG500? I preordered the XG500 but wondering if I should cancel and go for that XP700

Yeah if I was you I’d cancel and order the XP700 but it all depends on your needs if you’re going for battery and portability than go for the XG500 but if you’re mostly keeping it home where you can plug it in than I’d go for the XP700 even though it’s also portable

[@fa14bi-78]

The XG500 is a smaller speaker and easier to carry arround, but we can't say anything yet about the sound, exept that the XP700 has to be louder.

I own a Charge 2 and a Charge 4 when I need something very small on the go but they just don't cut it for me for bass and sound output. My only hesisitation on that XP700 is its hefty weight, if its inconvenient I may get less use out of it vs. the XG500 that I can grab easily.

I think putting a tweeter in the back is a dumb idea. The only way Sony can beat JBL is if the listener is BEHIND the speaker??

[@mafefusz]

I think that tweeter in the back in SONY is not becouse it sounds better from behind. That tweeter is making high tones clearer when the speaker is placed against the wall. Something like a 3D effect. The sound bounces off the wall and returns to the listener. Btw. sorry for my english. PS. I'm telling it as a PB 100 owner.

Not a dumb idea if you're street performing and some of the crowd is behind you. That's one of the reasons I would get the sony over the JBL. Plus Sony lasts longer
