      @@alanrossreviews You're not talking to a dummy. I've installed many complicated car audio and home audio systems for over 25 years. I build subwoofer boxes and tune them. I'm not confused or baffled by your videos. You can tell by doing just the way said. If you play a bass drop from 80 to 20hz the speakers will eventually become inaudible, that's how you know how deep it can really play. Playing deep with no authority doesn't count. It is sad that I had to explain this to you.

    I bought two Bugani M83s for £30 each (£60 total), a D8 for £63.99 and a Motion Boom for £62.99. One Bugani M83 is superior to the W-King D8 and the Motion Boom. The Bugani M83 overall had a more powerful bass, a wider sound stage and sounded more natural and balanced. The Motion Boom in comparison often sounded weak with a narrower sound stage like the music was coming out of a small box. The D8 sounded compressed and slightly harsh compared to the Bugani M83. The Bugani M83 was the clear winner.

(xtreme,charge,flip ect..) if you ever review the JBL partybox 100, it's about the only speaker in the portable range that i would call a decent listen!

    Here in Canada Amazon has the Motion Boom at $139 while the D8 (which I have) is regularly down to $75. I like the D8 because my primary use is in my tin can of a car. It's loud enough to rise above the ambient noise and cheap enough that I don't really care if it gets beat up. It sounds pretty good as well...

      Or a 40hz slider in the eq that only the sub will be effected by 👍

  • @KrazyShark
    @KrazyShark 3 роки тому +5

    For my Motion Boom i tend to keep that 150hz slider at least 2-3 notches below the 80hz one, just sounds better that way cause deep bass is just more satisfying to listen to. If you really want a fun sound just max out the 80hz slider and v-shape it but for "regular" listening, Alan's EQ sounds really really good.
    I've been trying out the D8 cause the 50W louder sound seemed interesting but comparing it to the Boom it just sounds like a tin can. Bare in mind i have the full black version, not sure if it's tuned differently than the green model but it's compressed, sounds muffled at times, no rumble, no satisfying bass that you can feel, heck i can't feel the bass at all while listening to it. I brought both of them at a small party and when i pushed the D8's volume to near max after listening to the Motion Boom my friends and i made that "disgust" face and told me to use the Motion Boom back cause the sound was so screechy and unsatisfying to listen to, it just hurts man. One of them even told me "it's just loud to be loud" and i have to agree it just sounds like a hot mess. The bass was non-existant and it sounds really harsh when pushed up whereas the Motion Boom can still retain that bass and you can balance it out with the app at louder volumes. I'm glad the D8 only cost me 50 bucks cause it's a pretty mediocre speaker but it can sound nice with no-vocals music or if you don't get the Motion Boom to A/B compare it with you shouldn't be that disappointed.
    After watching so many reviews about the D8 (and the D9) i can't see the appeal of it, i honestly tried, tried and tried using the dolby equalizer, push up the bass and just try to get a proper sound out of it but i just can't. The extra rumble, soundstage and low deep bass of the Motion Boom is where it's at. My opinion might be biased cause I had the Motion Boom before getting the D8 so maybe we just didn't have anything better for the price before but now that the Boom is here and i can A/B compare them, in my honest opinion, forget the W-Kings and get the Motion Boom. The fact that you can tune the sound with Soundcore's app is a game changer cause it will sound really good with anything. I rediscovered my whole music library cause that deep bass adds an extra satisfying layer to the music. It sounds fuller, hi-fi-ish and with the proper EQ it can go just as loud as the "50W" D8 and retain a better sound. As Alan said, just cause the D8 and D9 go "louder" doesn't mean it's the best choice here cause trust me you'll want to turn them down once your ears start hurting from listening to that loud mess. Granted the D9 might be at it's best when it's at max volume but that's the only thing it can do.
    It is very hard to describe, make you feel and listen how the rumble and soundstage is like with the Motion Boom cause when you A/B it with a recording vs the D8, the upper bass sounds bigger and boomier on sound but in reality you can't feel the overall roundness, rumble and shake of the room of the Motion Boom since it goes so low.
    Also obligatory, JBL Xtreme 3 is poop rant.
    Thanks for the review and comparison Alan :D
    TL;DR: Get the Motion Boom

      Completely agree with you. The Deep bass add this extra layer that i didn't notice with other speakers. When I A/B test it with any of my other speakers, the soundstage and the bass makes it a much fuller and balanced sound. The highs are really amazing without the tweeters and the bass doesn't bother the mids and highs at all. Soundcore is definitely my favorite brand so far, JBL can go eat dirt trying to make us buy a +250 euros non-adjustable sound that gets it bass cut at +80% volume.

    I really enjoy your content so I had to subscribe. I'm actually going back and forth between these 3 speakers. I really like the motion boom for design and sound but having an aux input is a necessary feature for my use. I'm now stuck between the D8 and D9.

    in my opinion Soundcore Boom is amazing. Wking, unfortunately, always sounded somehow strange, despite the very high volume, which no longer gives a pleasant sound. You can tell me how this speaker sounds at 10-20%, because I'm looking for a speaker that can play lower than 80hz, but I won't listen to it loud. I do not count on the tribit stormbox pro, after I saw their price ... 150 euros ...

    • @KrazyShark
      @KrazyShark 3 роки тому +3

      Same here, my W-King D8 when A/B testing it with my Boom just sounds awfully wrong. It's like missing whole layers, especially in the low bass / soundstage. The Boom retains great sound quality at all volumes, especially since you can use the Soundcore App to equalize it. I tend to max highs at low volumes cause it's a bit boomy, but then max low frequencies at full volume to keep the bass balanced. The D8 sounds very muffled and bass heavy below 50%, then sweet spot before hitting 80% where it becomes extremely harsh with the mids and highs. You could also get the Soundcore Motion+ that i absolutely loved when i got it a few months before but i really miss the deep bass when i listen to it despite the really detailed sound.

      I see a lot of people not liking the design and i can see why but the handle just makes me want to carry it around everywhere and the boombox look with the exposed passive radiators on the sides and speaker grill is what makes it for me.

My main selling point about the Soundcore 3 compared to the Maxsound Plus is that it's in the Souncore App ecosystem so you could probably adjust the EQ and make custom profiles which is the best selling point in my opinion with Soundcore cause the headroom is usually great and thus you can really get the sound you want.

I know it's supposedly only 16watt vs 24 for the Maxsound plus but it's also a much newer speaker and has Bluetooth 5.0 vs the 4.2 on the Maxound, and lighter as well. Like you said, the Soundcore app is killer. I also have a motion plus as well as boom but want something between that and what would be considered a mini speaker just for easier portability but still with a balanced sound at a reasonable price ($50 or less). The only other negative I know of about the Soundcore 3 is that it doesn't have an aux in whereas the Maxsound does but that isn't necessarily a deal breaker for me. Thanks for your reply BTW.

    Now that - is a review! The viewer can agree, (which I do completely) or disagree but you support your conclusions with DATA not just and A-B test; which is pretty subjective especially given most viewers are listening on a small speaker.
    I just purchased the D9. I was disappointed at how thin the bass is and exactly to your point - it just is not musical. (My old audio system was bi-wired Totem Acoustic Winds for towers with a B & W ASW 4000 sub so I am no stranger to musicality).
    I've decided to return the W-King D9 and aI m going to try the Soundcore Motion Boom. They're within a couple dollars of one another here in Canada.
    Great review. I particularly enjoyed the data. What are you using for an RTA? AudioControl?
    Oh yeah, I subbed, liked and sent to a friend who just bought a JBL. (Back in the day - we used to joke around the AV Shop that JBL stood for Junk, But Loud.
