Wow, a Sony which doesn't sound muffled? This is clearly a landmark in Sony's history of bluetooth and party speakers. I guess they finally found a better source for the technical fabric around the speaker, or were able to tune the speaker. It sounds indeed more hifi-like, still missing the sub bass. This puts it in the league of the BB2 and the Soundcore Motion Boom Plus (the OG).
How about a Boombox 3 partyboosted with an Xtreme 3? Think it would beat the Sony? I'd like the deeper base with good mid (Xtreme seems to offer good mids).
Best thing about this review is the use of many different types of music to compare between both devices. It really helped to make an educated choice. Massive thanks ! 🙏🏼😎
Listened this video on sony XG500 My conclusion: jbl wind in terms of deep bass, sony on battery, overall sound I would like to see soundbattle between ult 7 and xg500
I own the JBL Boombox original and always looked down upon Sony. In the 4 years I have owned it, the battery has seriously depleted and it has a back up of just 3 hours now on full volume. After sales service sucks. I will go for Sony Ult 7 now after watching this. Nothing can beat Sony ❤
I got rid of my old XG500 for the boombox 3 and I think the boombox is a better and more durable speaker for me. This new ULT 7 is an incredible update though!! And if the boombox 4 doesn't have the ability to use it as a karaoke machine im definitely buying this.
With Sony coming out the gate with this. JBL need to step their game up. But listening through a video will do no justice. I think I need to get the pair myself and do my own testing.
Are you able to test to see if there is any delay with the AUX input. I have the JBL and there is a slight delay when I use it with my custom Karaoke setup, i suppose I could use the guitar input, but my karaoke setup does all the processing, effects and autotune so i just need a flat, no latency response part speaker.
Jbl was way better from the past few time But this time finally sony nailed it.. This time sony is not just best but best by very huge margin from b3. Time has come to shift to sony from jbl
Considering the current lack of car atereo I have, a ouple of these seem like they will give me the stereo I want while retaining portability and other utility.
Left and right speakers sharing one sealed space is a bad idea and can cause loss of clarity and problems with the sound. That's one thing I've noticed about these passive radiator designs
This Sony speaker might give Marshall a run! I can’t believe I’m actually saying this but then again, sooner or later someone would have to make a speaker that could…
ONLY $400.00? Didn't you just frown at BOSE for their speaker being $400.00? If I didn't love BOSE so much, I'd definitely be a SONY fan. They make some quality products from what I've seen.
This speaker is in a totally different weight class compared to the Bose lol. $400 is a deal for this speaker, especially with it being as new as it is.
But Bose released their Max unfinished!! With features to be added via future updates, eg stereo pairing... Just like the QC Ultra ear buds - multi-point to be available via future firmware updates... Seems like many companies are doing this now - does the iPhone 15 release ring a bell?? 😁😁
@@IMHO88-dm1xfIf you’re looking for a true outdoor speaker, then the EXTREME 4 is the way to go. The Bose Max is a better indoor or inside speaker, where you’ll be able to maximize the bass & sound quality. Once you take & use a speaker outside, it loses certain sound characteristics. You’ll need a speaker that’s clean & loud with a good battery life. This is where the EXTREME 4 excels.
@@pullingthestrings5233 I'm not going to recommend the Sony Ult for deep bass. The Boombox is known for deeper bass, and it has a subwoofer. It is a question between the two speakers.
@@pullingthestrings5233The Sony Ult 7 does not have as deep bass as JBL. The JBL has a subwoofer, while the Ult "only" has woofers. The JBL should inherently have deeper bass. During the review, at 4:20, he says that the bass is deeper. If deciding between the two speakers purely for deep bass, the JBL has the advantage.
I was about to choose a camo JBL but then I stumbled on a comparison of them and then listened to these, and the Sony has better midrange tonal accuracy and a larger spectrum of sound, and the JBL sounded, in contrast, THIN, as more than one reviewr has said..
1000! In primul rand puterea sunetului nu se masoara in W se masoara in db, 2: nu are relevanta intrebarea, 3: majoritatea producatorilor seriosi nu dau masuratori in W.
U mean sony sounds muffled to jbl,see in vid it does but i own a pb 110 and bb3 and it aint muffled at all,its wayyy clearer than most sonys i have ever heard.also i have the jbl go 3,its tiny but it would prob beat the sony ult 7ezzzzz
From the comparison at the end of the video Jbl has a better sound overall . Sony is a better design has more features and of course has the name but sound of jbl much better . That’s my own opinion.
I actually own both. Received the JBL yesterday, and the Sony is in transit. Blowing the JBL back, sealed NIB. Going to keep the Sony. Why? Personally, as a JBL fan....I cannot stand the HUGE JBL letters. Such a turn off. 2nd. I need to store the speaker vertically, (poolside, under the patio...when not in use). With the Sony you can store it vertically. Dealbreaker for me is the HUGE JBL initials, and don't want to store it horizontally. I agree. Sony is back.
@@benru112 Based on design, esthetics, and vertical storage, (when not in use), I give the nod to Sony for sure. As far as audio quality, both are equal, give or take. Sony is the winner.
I'm a JBL fan, but I must admit that this is a win for Sony.
I have the ULT Field 7 and I love it. Absolute beast and great sound!
If you're into hip-hop, then JBL is the way to go.
Which side braaa

@@hvxcolors396 Naah not history they got muffled after 2nd gen of XB series (6yrs maybe)
Clearly Sony, all the way!!!! It is wayyyy clearer.
SONYclear and best quality
Sometimes the sony sounds good and sometimes it sounds like the music is coming from the basement
For you yes, but if you want deeper bass JBL all the way
missing deep bass on sony
How about a Boombox 3 partyboosted with an Xtreme 3? Think it would beat the Sony? I'd like the deeper base with good mid (Xtreme seems to offer good mids).
Forgot to ask, do you actually hear a difference when using LDAC on the Ult 7???
Best thing about this review is the use of many different types of music to compare between both devices. It really helped to make an educated choice.
Massive thanks ! 🙏🏼😎
Sony is back I'm getting one of these
Been owning almost every release from JBL and I must admit the Sony took the cake here.
Listened this video on sony XG500
My conclusion: jbl wind in terms of deep bass, sony on battery, overall sound
I would like to see soundbattle between ult 7 and xg500
Sony has more deep bass in 40 percent volume
I just game my Daughter my XG500!
Checking out this ULT Sounds Great!
I would sell my XG500 but i don't want do that because i got it for my birthday @@Jstall7543
You may not know ,audiophiles not for themself ear .
I can't hear the rumble sound from Sony, but I can hear it clearly on Boombox 3, but the vocal warmer on Sony pleasant to hear
Wow!! Sony made a decent speaker for a change!
I know, i waited for this moment for soo long! Finally a proper speaker with better bass than JBL without that horrible high pitched harshness
I own the JBL Boombox original and always looked down upon Sony. In the 4 years I have owned it, the battery has seriously depleted and it has a back up of just 3 hours now on full volume. After sales service sucks.

@@sechabaelias8010 release date?
I love the performance. Made me smile
Damn I didn’t think the boombox would ever be topped..
Boombox is clearer at high volume. Sony is a bit distorted maybe because of just two ranges where BB3 has three ranges.
The opposite is true.
True, at high volume the BoomBox is quite clear.
@@h1a8 nah
These both look like good speakers
The best speaker reviewer on You Tube! Keep up the great work! 👍
Thank you!
How do you attach the Sony to a chair or a small table that is not that wide?. Can you or will it fall?jbl it is attached in the center.
Are you able to test to see if there is any delay with the AUX input.

Sony all the way , listen to how different they sound there
Jbl was way better from the past few time
But this time finally sony nailed it..

Time has come to shift to sony from jbl
Considering the current lack of car atereo I have, a ouple of these seem like they will give me the stereo I want while retaining portability and other utility.
I’m looking for a speaker to pair with an outdoor projector with movies and music in a large yard. Seems like the Sony is a better choice.
I own a Boombox 1, but the first time I heard the Boombox 3 playing at a party, I was blown away.
Which sounds clearer at high volume?
Both are good speakers 😊
Hello, what microphone do you use to record sound?
@@Дмитрий-е4ц5ш shure
Ceon! Thanks for posting this video
Your daughter is the show, congratulations on such an amazing performance.
How about a Boombox 3 partyboosted with an Xtreme 3? Think it would beat the Sony?
@@scottsibley561 i have the xtreme 3 and boombox 3 and i would say easy win against to the sony
But at the cost of $800 😂 just get 2 Sony
Vocals always shine on jbl...but at the cost of sibilance
Did u not hear sony
Sony sound balanced and vocals are natural where jbl sound over shine on vocal
Sonys sounds is wider , more surround and all the instruments are balance
Left and right speakers sharing one sealed space is a bad idea and can cause loss of clarity and problems with the sound. That's one thing I've noticed about these passive radiator designs
Sony sounds better but I like that the JBL you can change the battery that's super important. I'm a have to go with the JBL on this one.
You can't change the battery on Boombox 3. That's a feature of the JBL Extreme 4, the smaller one.

Hello, I'm from Vietnam. Which speaker do you think sounds better? Thank you
If you prefer deep bass, JBL. Otherwise, the Sony sounds really good.
@@CEONTHEMAKING In your opinion, which speaker produces a better singer's voice?
@@PhongVo-rl9flthe voice isn’t deep bass. So Sony would have the advantage.

I think the jbl need to remove the tweeters from infront the midrange. And put them at the top
Midrange is more on sony that sounds painful for ears . Any thing more is painful except low bass that jbl has.
