For anyone wondering, this speaker is incredibly loud, considering the rated power and its actual size I use it to teach students at school and it does a great job filling up the whole classroom
Just saw a video where similarly sized speakers had way more bass, so it is possible. Things like driver size and excursion and such also help, besides inside volume.
Looks like you guys are having fun. I have a flip 3. I can help of you are having any problems. Although you don't have a passive radiator, I believe there is a port.
JBL have always been my favourite brand when it comes to portable speakers. I've watched and opened speakers from other brands and what I can say.. for the money you pay to buy an JBL speaker, you get a well engineered speaker in and outside with focus on quality. So that's said!
Me too! My first one was the JBL Flip 3 idk when i got it but it was prob around 2017 or 2022 it just broke the other day... so i bought a new JBL flip 7 i think
it really help me to fix a miner issues with mine thanks. two things are worth mention, jbl is no joke when talking about water resistence, seconde, there is no way to open without damage the rubber. but if you priority is function over form, you can open, fixit close it, glue everything together and will work as a new one.
Seaji Vlogs I will say it was 10/7 it’s pretty loud for a small speaker but if you want a very loud speaker I don’t think you should get JBL GO 2 but if you want a speaker that you can travel with I think JBL GO 2 if good for you.
Whole lotta tech for such small speaker! But that's why you can achieve such loud and clean sound on small speaker like this! I'm using this one for over 6 years now. And remember, never try to hard reset it! Did this mistake some time ago to clean it's bluetooth pairing list and bricked it accidentally into service mode. If it happened to you, you gotta: 1. Turn it off completely by holding power button for 20 seconds. 2. Plug it into AC to power it on AND INSTANTLY start pushing Bluetooth and + buttons for like 15 seconds. 3. Press power button to finally reset it.
Hi and thank you for this interesting video. Do you think it would be difficult to modify the GO2 so that is would play bluetooth and aux at the same time? As designed, the bluetooth signal is muted when a 1/8 stereo trs plug is inserted.
I've had this speaker for about 6 months. Has been working fine but now all of a sudden there's this electric pop noise randomly when listening to any audio from any apps, UA-cam, YT music, deezer, pocketcast and poweramp (FLAC, MP3). I've contacted the reseller and he sent me a new one, guess what same problem. I have no problem with my other Bluetooth headphones or speakers. Using a cable solves the problem but I bought it as a Bluetooth speaker not an analog one. Any ideas why this is happening? What's with this electric pop noise. Please help!
Thank you sir. You are doing great job. As those gadgets expensive, we can not break them n investigate. Really i want to get a jbl go2. I learnt it from your this vedio how much it suit for my purpose. 😊
@@MegaSafetyFirst The 1st gen mini isn't expensive at all, I would love to see a comparison between these two. Great video anyway, you got a new subscriber :)
@@austinnlyt6476 I don't believe so because there was no glue involved only screws so as long as you don't rip the rubber around it to keep water out and you put the screws back on good you should be fine
Thanks for your video - very interesting and helpful! ❗One Question: Is is possible to replace the micro usb port with an usb c port? I would love to change it but do not know if it would work with the function and is it worth it? (I do not like this jbl go 3 look)😉 All in all the sounf quality is better on the 3rd Gen, but i got already 2x JBL GO 2 so🤙🏼😉 Appreciate your answer!👍🏼💯
I bought a second hand jbl go 2 but the grill is uneven because it was dented. It doesn’t affect the sound quality, I just don’t like how it look. How can I fix it? Thanks!
You can use heat gun to loosen up the glue. It’ll be easy to remove the grill, I’ve done it on jbl go one. One question I was trying to increase mah capacity of battery in jbl go 1 but I failed. Don’t know what happened it pares with the device but woofer doesn’t work, I tried to replace woofer but nothing changed. Can you me help me out ? I might damaged amplifier. MegaSafetyFirst
I love this little speaker but hate the micro-usb. I would love to see someone show how to convert it to USB-C! (I know the Go3 has USB-C but other than the finicky micro-usb mine works great)
Hey there! thanks a lot for the video it helped me tear mine down, the problem im facing is that no matter what button i press nothing happens and the only thing that do happen is when i plug the charching cable the led turns red but other than that..nothing how can i know if its the battery or the circuit it self?
Ok so I have a problem with turning it on so I'm here. It wont turn on but after many tries it suddenly turn on and works just fine but if I left it on table for like 5 minutes the problems here again. So should I open it and check some circuits?
Hello, i dropped my speaker. And after falling, I heard something was loose. what do you think part is out of place? I really appreciate if someone can reply me 🙏
My JBL GO2 not working. I'll remove its as you showing this video. Thank you. So I'll check the battery by my multimeter and its shows 4.2V. I think battery is ok. But It's not working. Not indicating charging and doesnt response when pushing power button. So, have to met any trouble like this. Plz help me. Thank you
Im thinking about opening my Go and 'permanently' hooking it up to my amplifier. Do you thing it will work if I strip the jack part off of a jack to tulip cable and solder it to the speaker feed from the go?
Thanks for the video. Please, I have no idea about mainboards but I am looking for a solution to "erase" (sorry my but english) the bluetooth module because I dont want to have it (deleteing bluetooth prevents me from headeaches). Please, if you could help to know what it it the "capacitor" or bluetooth module. Many thanks.
Hi, it’s been a long time, but if I remember right, then the Bluetooth module is the small green daughter board, which can be seen at 5:20. I am not sure if the speaker will still function once that board is removed
Do you know where the audio filter is on the Motherboard ? I’m using my jbl go as a Bluetooth Bridge to my old hi fi because I’m bored ahahahahah I think they put a audio filter of course so I get almost no base coming out on the hi-fi

Did you turn off autoplay in class? Most teachers leave autoplay on and it will automatically skip to the next video when the current video finishes
Salut fra :))
Yes! It have a passive radiator!
Still bass is almost non-existant.
A Bal look at the volume of air inside it - hardly anything. It's little wonder they can't get much bass. That and the passive driver is on the front

Imagine JBL marketing team all get cancer at same time, and engineers just add screws and removable back panel instead of glue
Thanks so much for sharing . I will take the cover-grill out to get the clearer sound . Wonderful time is coming .

How the bass works
Hi Thanks for the video. Even there is only one speaker, does it take stereo input from the circuit board? How the single speaker out stereo?
Hi, it does take a stereo input. But the built-in DSP will mux the signals to a single output stream for the speaker.
@@MegaSafetyFirst Thanks a lot.

is the speaker still waterproof when you open it?
no
Sí
Do you still remember what amp chip this unit used?
Sorry, I don’t remember which one was used.
How does this sound compared to Anker Soundcore Mini ?
That's an interesting question. I wish I had that speaker to compare the two.

Can I put the grill back if I remove it ???
Yea
Whats the bluetooth chip model number and manufacturer?
You can find it under that qr code sticker thing on the bluetooth chip.
i wanna know too. Any luck??
Why didn't you do a bass test with the speaker in dissasembled condition?
Does removeing the front ruin the waterproofing?

no

Sometimes it is possible to solder a broken charging port back on.
It depends on the damage on the motherboard.

How passive bass radiator works.🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
What is the size of the speaker
Is it sounds better than old jbl go?
TheGamerYT I think yes because of pasive radiator.
There's a Video comparing the two speakers:
🔊 JBL GO2 Sound-test versus JBL GO

They both sound badly, don't buy unless on discount (got myself a Go 1 on heavy discount, good enough for me since Go 2 is equally bad anyway).
Zwaluww I got JBL GO 1 for only 18€. How much did you pay?
Basically the same.. €19

Will the speaker will be still waterproof after taking off the grill only??plz reply
Yes
Will it still be waterproof when grill is taken off
Yes
Can I put it back if I remove the grill ???
Check if the grill is glued in.
If seen some tuet are glued in and some that are not. If it is not glued in, then it is super easy to put back in.
Do you know the type or code of battery ?
Thanks for the video, sorted out a client
Great video. I want to ask that was there in the right down corner? That shiny rectangle.
That's just a chunk of metal. It's further describe here:
ua-cam.com/video/rlsb-kiYWRE/v-deo.html
My guess is it is there to way the speaker down.
Yes they are just weights to balance devices or make them heavy so they don't slide around.
How much battary mah capacity ?
i thought it has 2 active speakers...thats little bit down..
there's no space for second speaker though.
Is that the tip of your knife?
Im thinking about opening my Go and 'permanently' hooking it up to my amplifier. Do you thing it will work if I strip the jack part off of a jack to tulip cable and solder it to the speaker feed from the go?

Awesome! Bro
GREAT
