i really believe you and Alan Ross reviews are one of the only ones out there who actually review a product and tell us how it actually sounds! Keep it up that way you are doing a great job!!!
I’m currently listening to my BB3, Encore, Tribit, and Boom 2 Plus side by side. It’s not even close. Price aside, the JBL’s just sound better to me. I guess you can call me a JBL fanboy. Boom 2 Plus is my least favorite of the 4 that I’m listening to right now. I want to love the Boom 2 Plus so much because they are more affordable.
Soundcore and they're heavy-handed marketing on UA-cam is officially got me rolling my eyes into my head. Definitely have jumped the shark recently. I hate to say it, I have a bunch of their older products, but finding any kind of content about their products that doesn't involve a conflict of interest is practically impossible. Maybe two out of every 100 videos don't involve at the very least and embargo deal with a script and a free speaker
The Boombox 3 does have better low end. The Tribit Stormbox Blast also seemed to have a low end advantage over the Boom 2 Plus, but at very high to max volume the Tribit loses some of that bass advantage.
JBL Boombox 3 WiFi would demolish anything from its path. Alan Ross also said he likes the WiFi model more. It has a nicer tuning to his ears. Indoors tuning. And more bass. 😎 His JBL Boombox 3 vs JBL Boombox 3 WiFi video. I know this.
@@JaysStraightUpReviewshow do both sound at louder volumes. Even with the eq the boom 2 plus can’t rival the boom box 3? I mean the soundcore should be better no question, stating that the BB 3 is older. But the boom 2 plus is cheaper in price. Maybe they will do some sound updates to the boom 2 plus to improve the sound quality and clarity
Which one has the better all around sound with max eq? I listen to all genre of music and just having louder bass never cut it. If you know the weight on both unit as well. Can you share that with us.
Got my boom2plus. Sounds hollow. Same thing as the space one. Nobody mentions this, except the weight is a bit of a giveaway something might be amiss with the construction of these things. X20 and boombox 3 wifi sounds better for me
If I listen to it on it's own it's not that noticeable, but yeah, when compared to some other speakers it does have just a bit of that hollow sound. All of the Boom series speakers are pretty light weight in comparison to some comparable competitors.
It does sound hollow. I compared it side by side to my BB3 and Tribit. The only thing I like about the Boom 2 Plus is the weight and USB-C power charging. Deep bass and sound quality is my priority. It’s just good, but not 🤯.
I’m really curious if the JBL BOOMBOX 3 actually sounds better than my speaker system. My setup is the SONY STR-DH190 receiver and the SONY SS-CS3 tower speakers.
Jbl easy winner imo. SC is too muffled and when it wasnt muffled it just didnt have the instrument separation and soundstage that the jbl did... Idk guess im a bit biased as well as someone who Already owns three JBL speakers 😂 Thanks for all you do Jay!❤
I agree its a super muddy and sloppy sounding speaker. Quality of sound sucks for me. W king x20 still holding the crown in my opinion for these boomboxes
Yeah, but to be fair you can adjust the EQ to take care of some of that. I'm pretty impressed that you can boost the bass up a lot and it doesn't really get distorted. If you do that with the Boom 2 it will distort.
@@JaysStraightUpReviews seems like bass is all these Companies focus on. Honestly im getting bored. I'd like to see a good balanced 3 way tower but i doubt we will anytime soon. The current versions sell too god for them to change and most people arent audiophiles like me
@@mikedavis9554 The boombox 3 is as good as you get pretty much. Clean deep bass and decent mids/highs. My encore also seems to sound quite good but looses its 'sparkle' after about 50%
@JaysStraightUpReviews the official noodle arm boombox is more "portable" as my wife would agree. Even she prefers the tribit stormbox blast. "Johnny 5 is alive" [oo] for the win!
@@sappyjohnson i dont have such issues. i was clowning anyone paying more for a worse sounding speaker because its a kg or 2 lighter. balancing not needed. 2 would hit tho
Boombox 3 can be had for $350 every other month brand new or sub 300 if you can find a refurb unit. I got mine refurbished with eBay 2 year warranty for $260 including tax.
Wow... To my ears the JBL boom box definately has a better sound. More rich and more clean. Up to you to decide if its worth the xtra money. 🤔 I'd rather have the JBL. I dont care bout lights. Its cool feature but not necessary for me. I only care bout sound.
The Soundlink Max sounds really nice as long as you don't push it too hard at it's output limit. I think if you were wanting something to use outside the Boom 2 Plus might be the better option and inside the Soundlink Flex might be the better option.

Thank you for the comment.
Agreed 👍
When I want to know how a speaker actually sounds, I go to those two straight away.
I love my Boombox3. If price isn't an issue then get the best. 😊
bb3 vs the devialet mania?

ive been looking for a week to find a speaker, and the shilling in this market is insane. Worse than any other product I've tried to do research on.
Links to speakers in description. Had a technical issue with the first attempt at this video.🫣

Did you try it against the x20 or the encore? I'm staying with my encore as far as that bass goes
Not yet.
Nice review, I would like to hear some Merengue music see how the bass line is playing there Thks .
If you have some copyright free music suggestions feel free to let me know.
Soundcore seems to have upgraded the bass and downgraded the tweeters.
The Boom 2 Plus has a full sound at lower volume, but it still doesn't have the low end capability of the Boombox 3.
@@JaysStraightUpReviewshow do both sound at louder volumes. Even with the eq the boom 2 plus can’t rival the boom box 3?

What is max EQ? 😧
@@JaysStraightUpReviews with all bars on equalizer at full is what I was trying to say. Sorry for the confusion.
What’s the brand name of the SPL meter you’re using?
Good review Jay
Thank you. 😉
Excellent review...
Muito bom vídeo 👏👏
Harga memang nggak bisa bohong, tapi salut banget sama soundcore
What's really good for Soundcore?

Only way to know that is to have the Boombox 3 running up against your Sony home stereo system.
Jbl easy winner imo. SC is too muffled and when it wasnt muffled it just didnt have the instrument separation and soundstage that the jbl did... Idk guess im a bit biased as well as someone who Already owns three JBL speakers 😂
Thanks for all you do Jay!❤
Thanks for watching!😃
The Boombox 3 sounds way better but the Battery life on them is Complete trash 4 or 5 hours on max Vol and it dies not woth the price imo
Most of these speakers don't last that long at max volume.
The Sony SRS XG500 has a great Battery life but lacks the Vol and Bass of other speakers Especially Compared to the Boombox 3

BB3 better but price😢... Hearing on Edifier D12 bass 0 treble +3
For the price and portability, Soundcore Boom2 wins.
For noodle-arms, sure. 😆

10:08 bb3

the anker is literally half the price
You would literally be incorrect. The Boombox 3 is currently $349.95 and the Boom 2 Plus is $249.99. Hope this helps.

My country, bb3 400$ vs B2 plus 150$ no brain deal for me XD
jbl bb3 wins no more longer statement.
Double the price🙃🙃🙃
Please stick to 1 EQ setting only when comparing only same song
I didn't realize my channel was bought out and I have a new boss. 😆
THE MIDS OF JBL IS NOT BALANCE.ITS TOO HIGH..IT IS HOWLING A BIT ALREADY
Funny, most people think the JBL sound is weak in mids. 🧐
@@JaysStraightUpReviews well this one is harsh in lower mids (700hz) while other speakers from jbl could have quite a bit reduced mids
Let's go teardown 😅😅😅
jbl alot better
Jbl 180w , Soundcore 140w
Is that all?
JBL boombox 3 100watt
Wow... To my ears the JBL boom box definately has a better sound. More rich and more clean. Up to you to decide if its worth the xtra money. 🤔 I'd rather have the JBL. I dont care bout lights. Its cool feature but not necessary for me. I only care bout sound.
In waiting boom 2 midi & boom 2 max😅
And the wait continues. 😆
I have the boombox 3 wifi and so far no soundcore speakers i have beat it
Factoring on price that should never happen. 😆
Im a JBL fan before but now i changed to Soundcore.....
What flipped you?
That's not even close señor,jbl has a way better soundstage!
JBL is hot garbage LOL
@@sappyjohnson did you have a bad night ?
@@claudiufiliimon6428 I couldn't sleep thinking about how bad JBL sounds.
@@sappyjohnson cannot be that bad
@@claudiufiliimon6428 Way overpriced for the sound quality is my main complaint.
Noodle arm😂
If he was to change the eq on the boom I bet it would sound a whole lot better
Im only after soundboom 2 plus or the new bose soundlink max. Which do you think will better to get in terms of sound alone. Not thinking the price?
The Soundlink Max sounds really nice as long as you don't push it too hard at it's output limit. I think if you were wanting something to use outside the Boom 2 Plus might be the better option and inside the Soundlink Flex might be the better option.
