Love the nuances that you share. Specially talking about the nature of sound itself. My brother has a rave neo 1. I happened to open it and saw that the treble solution is the simplest one in the book by using a resistor before the connection to the tweeter, works like a rectifier blocking the low frequency signals from going ahead.

I think this is probably the best option Soundcore has released lately. It's not perfect but I do agree that it sounds like a better value proposition than most of their newer speakers. Thank you for another great review, Alan! 😁👍👏
Im pretty new to bluetooth speakers market nad looking for my first one, watched a lot of reviews but i enjoy your reviews the most! Also thank you for list in descritpion its very helpful. Great job man !
We gotta need the TWS testing for the Rave Neo 2. “That’ll be Madness!” 🤯 otherwise, the speaker quality speaks for itself. And a size that small is ridiculous how much it pumps out. A definite improvement. 👍
And I think the Go Plus Play 3 is going to be the most important speaker for the year. It's been 6 years with the exact same advertised battery, which I think is laughable considering they always got complaints about the battery. I just hope it can come to the u.s.😅
Thanks for another good 'un again. Interestingly on the 35% volume neo 1 sounded noticably brighter than neo 2 at 100% it sounded reversed. " Liked by 20 million" I wonder how many of them were buyers? Thanks again.
dear alan, tnx for the review. between x600 and rave neo 2, what is your choice? i am on the market for buying bt speaker, cannot decide between these two. listening to classic rock, folk, classical music. tnx.
Out of all of the soundcore speakers I think I’m leaning towards buying the neo 2. I already have the motion boom plus just because I wanted a soundcore speaker I could take anywhere but the bass isn’t enough for me. Would you agree that this is the best option from soundcore for bass?
Good review Alan. I don't have any of the two speakers but going by just the sound comparison the NEO 1 sounds better to me than Neo 2. The adjectives you used to describe Neo 1 are exactly the kind of sound i like in a speaker...i will add a cleaner sound. With the Neo 2, i heard more upper bass, upper mids (in your face and a little jumbled) and despite having 2 twitters...i didn't hear the twitters unlike what i heard from the Neo 1 with just one twitter. I will go for the Neo 1 just for the way it sounds. Maybe if i hear them both live i might think differently but doubt it.
Hi, new to your channel and love the hardcore analysis. I need your help Alan, I need a half decent speaker around £100 to £150 budget. Here’s my shortlist: Soundcore Rave Neo 2 JBL Charge 5 Tribit Soundbox Blast Soundcore Motion Boom Tronsmart Bang SE Use case: listening in the kitchen while cooking and also in the garden so waterproofing dust proofing would be ideal. Ultimately sound quality and bass is important. What do you recommend? Any advice and suggestions would be greatly appreciated😮. BTW the SRN2 is currently £110 @ Costco & JBL Charge 5 is £130 but I can get for £100.
Just received my Neo 2 today. It has a terrible hiss when not playing. Maybe not noticeable outside but it’s very present listening indoors. Maybe this unit is defective.
I got it replaced and the new one still has the hiss/crackle, but it's much less noticeable. I have to put my ears right in front of the top speakers to hear it (powered on but no music playing). The old one you could hear it sitting 3 feet away.@@alanrossreviews
I just got a Neo 2 yesterday for 149.99 Canadian ($110 usd) I thought it was a pretty good deal so I had to get one. So far I'm not having any issues with it however when i compare it with the stormbox blast, I prefer the sound of the stormbox hands down. 👍👍 Do you have a custom eq that you prefer using with the Neo 2?
no i dont use the neo 2, as i mentioned in the video the original was more laid back which i liked, the neo 2 is more in yer face but at that price great value.
@alanrossreviews That's understandable thankfully this bad boy can be returned within 90 days so I will most likely return it and wait to get either another stormbox blast or maybe get two Rave Neo 1s :)
I really wanted you to review this before I tested it out. The funny thing is I never like being first to review a speaker 😅 but I'll get my hands on it sooner than later. Rave Party 2 vs StormBox Blast?
@alanrossreviews I had 2 firmware updates right out of the box. But I will say that full band EQ is needed. I hated this speaker with the default eq, and my eq got way too bright after 60%, so I chose my exact points and lowered them considerably so I could use it at higher volumes. The bass eq default is ok but I haven't owned this thing for 24 hrs, and they want me to post it asap after asking me for a color and giving me blue anyway and not even giving me 2😮💨
Alan I've gone thru many speakers amd finally settled on just enjoying the hell outta my insmy m226 for smaller speakers ... does the blast sound better absolutely or boom plus yes bit for my uses and not worrying about my kids wrecking it the insmy is still my Lil hidden gem tale care alan and great job
The insmy m226 is going for $27 right now on Amazon US. Despite not needing another bluetooth speaker I had to partake in this outrageously good deal. That is if it sounds as good as you say

Very interesting video! Can it compare to tribit blast? (Well no deep bass) Or maybe more to boom plus? EDIT: just watched the last mins... HK GO PLUS 3....Whaaaat?
not go plus, go+ play, the go+ play has been a classic for 6 years. the tuning of the rave neo 2 is on the warmer side of the motion boom plus, so yes it would suit many who like the motion boom plus but for me a more natural sounding speaker.
Well they are so different, this one would kill the boom outdoors but indoors i prefer the deeper bass of the boom but you can get two booms for the price of the neo 2

@@irikefehope2587 well i dont know your taste. personally i would rather have the neo 2 is you can find it at the low price its been currently £100/$100. for me the boom plus is unlistenable.
Nice detailed review as always, good speaker for its intended purpose(party & outdoor listening mainly), i thought the little speakers at the top were tweeters, never knew they were full range drivers, i still prefer deeper bass & warm sounding speakers like the boom, what i want is a real boom upgrade with merciful weight😅, can't be hauling the blast around for now, Soundcore is always good with light weight speakers, with the type of competition out there, its only a matter of time.... Hope the Blast is still holding its throne for pound for pound world champ or has there been any potential contender?
im not sure if they are tweeters or full range drivers but they measure like full range and the rave neo had a full range top driver. for me the last is still pound for pound but you could make the arguement for a pair of booms.
@@alanrossreviews Oh, i see! I don't know why sometimes youtube wouldn't give me notifications about some of your new contents, as Mifa Wildbox is a good alternative to the Boom, which speaker is a good alternative to the Blast?
Hi Alan, I want to buy a speaker mostly for listening while driving (the speakers in my work car stopped working ... ) I'm not looking for volume and nasty, muffled bass, but clean bass, details, and a clear voice. I was thinking about the Party 2 but I understand that there is no USB connection for charging so I could keep it plugged. The other option is Neo 2. My question is should I take it instead? And how much better is the party 2? P.S I love your vibe, pleasure to watch your videos 👌👍
@@alanrossreviews do you agree with me that because of the state jbl are in currently (being the mainstream and most selling company of bluetooth speakers), reviewers have been so biased when comparing to other companies just because of the high expectations from them , and people look for flaws and say it like" how could you jbl? Your shit!!, cheaper is better" While in real life, the full package that they are offering and the overall experience is superior than the cheaper alternatives. Im not talking about b&o or devialet, these are too cocky and overpriced. Jbl is the standard and people are scaling other speakers based on jbl. Thats the sad truth. Thats how i feel
@@shoerice5083 man im not knocking you. JBL are the biggest sellers in bluetooth speakers, nobody can deny that. Because of that everything gets compared to JBL. They have hits and misses just like everyone else. I spent a couple of years being knocked for liking the charge 3 which remains a classic. I just tell it like i see it, not all reviewers sadly are like that and have an agenda. Im not saying all reviewers are liars thats clearly not the case but the bigger channels tend to be tainted by an agenda bias.

Love the nuances that you share. Specially talking about the nature of sound itself. My brother has a rave neo 1. I happened to open it and saw that the treble solution is the simplest one in the book by using a resistor before the connection to the tweeter, works like a rectifier blocking the low frequency signals from going ahead. Depending on the resistance value of resistor, as in higher the ohm value, higher the range of treble passes through it. The full range driver is actually the woofer. Theres no crossover.
wow well that explains the strange way it measures. i dont know about the neo 2, the woofer seems to have a gentle roll off from 400 hz and the tweeters a gentle roll off from 3khz but its not a crossover, its just a shallow slope down. hard to really know what it going on but a poor quality filter like a resistor would explain it i guess. so not one thing or the other 🤷♀️

That's quite a serious sounding speaker!
well could do with a little bit more deep bass but for the current usa price its great value yes.
The Neo 2 along with its bigger brother the Rave Party 2 make the X600 look like a step backwards.
and that was before the latest x600 update, too funny 🤣🤣🤣
Omg the new one is so much better, listening to the first is like someone putting a speaker into a cone or a long pipe
A bit like that yeah 😁
SRN2 is the real winner here 100%
decent upgrade for sure
would this be an upgrade to the motion boom plus? I like the clarity of the motion boom plus but they are both 80 watts and am curious

That brightness is due to the 9khz peak, not good.
Nice review I was looking at both of these recently .

How does the Rave Neo 2 compare to the Stormbox blast?
it cant do the deep bass of the blast
i think it sound nice! default settings are great in custom mode the only thing to do is just simply boost bass
but not at low volumes where that bas boost is massive i would say, for low volumes you may want to give a high end boost in custom.

@@alanrossreviews oh Damm, shit, next time that I go to usa
😁 this is why soundcore were reluctant to send to me because its not available worldwide
We need more deep basss...
always......
The Go + Play goes deep for its little driver
Try it out
can you pair this to the motion boom plus?
as far as i know yes with other partycast speakers
Is the neo 2 or boom plus better?
for me the neo 2 is better
@@alanrossreviews Which one has better bass? I'm looking to buy one 😅
@@Voidpkm neo 2 goes deeper, boom plus is upper bass heavy
Thx
good inform
Cheers 👍
woah!!!!!!!!
yup! they actually sent it 🤣
can you compare the 2 to the soundcore motion boom plus
👍 My preference would be neo 2
@@alanrossreviews better for bass or loudness? or just overall sound quality?
all round better im not a fan of the boom plus
@@alanrossreviewsDo you think the sound quality of the speaker you mentioned is superior to the motion boom plus? I've already placed an order for the motion boom plus. Should I cancel it and switch to the rave neo 2? I previously owned the soundcore rave neo, but I wasn't satisfied with its bass, leading me to sell it and opt for the soundcore motion boom plus. Can you help me decide which one between the motion boom plus and rave neo 2 has better bass?
@@irikefehope2587 well i dont know your taste. personally i would rather have the neo 2 is you can find it at the low price its been currently £100/$100. for me the boom plus is unlistenable.
Nice detailed review as always, good speaker for its intended purpose(party & outdoor listening mainly), i thought the little speakers at the top were tweeters, never knew they were full range drivers, i still prefer deeper bass & warm sounding speakers like the boom, what i want is a real boom upgrade with merciful weight😅, can't be hauling the blast around for now, Soundcore is always good with light weight speakers, with the type of competition out there, its only a matter of time....
Hope the Blast is still holding its throne for pound for pound world champ or has there been any potential contender?
im not sure if they are tweeters or full range drivers but they measure like full range and the rave neo had a full range top driver. for me the last is still pound for pound but you could make the arguement for a pair of booms.
@@alanrossreviews Oh, i see!
I don't know why sometimes youtube wouldn't give me notifications about some of your new contents, as Mifa Wildbox is a good alternative to the Boom, which speaker is a good alternative to the Blast?
maybe the encore but the battery is shite!
@@alanrossreviews
Now i know exactly where to look into
Thanks Alan!
👍👍👍
yo! 👌👌👌
On sale at Walmart for 129 I want to buy
maybe the best value out there right now
Lmao wait for it… wait for it… next trend on UA-cam, X600 KILLER!
After the latest update soundcore may be the x600 killer 🤣
Rave neo 2 vs mifa wildbox
Premium content, as per usual ☺️
thank you for your support as always 😁👍
NEO2 win
for an upfront sound yes, neo 1 still more relaxing
Hi Alan, I want to buy a speaker mostly for listening while driving (the speakers in my work car stopped working ... )
I'm not looking for volume and nasty, muffled bass, but clean bass, details, and a clear voice.
I was thinking about the Party 2 but I understand that there is no USB connection for charging so I could keep it plugged.
The other option is Neo 2.
My question is should I take it instead? And how much better is the party 2?
P.S I love your vibe, pleasure to watch your videos 👌👍
its more powerful, slightly less warm sounding
@alanrossreviews
Wow, thank you very much for your ultra-fast response.
I'll probably take the Neo 2.
Keep up the amazing work 👌👌👌
@alanrossreviews
Sorry, last thing.
Maybe I should go with the W king T9 instead?
many versions all sound different

Huh?
Walmart speakers for the win!!
JBL forever 🤣🤣
@@alanrossreviews i mean, yea why not
Jbl forever, Harman forever, samsung forever,
@@shoerice5083 amen brother 👍👍
@@alanrossreviews do you agree with me that because of the state jbl are in currently (being the mainstream and most selling company of bluetooth speakers), reviewers have been so biased when comparing to other companies just because of the high expectations from them , and people look for flaws and say it like" how could you jbl? Your shit!!, cheaper is better"
While in real life, the full package that they are offering and the overall experience is superior than the cheaper alternatives. Im not talking about b&o or devialet, these are too cocky and overpriced. Jbl is the standard and people are scaling other speakers based on jbl. Thats the sad truth.
Thats how i feel
@@shoerice5083 man im not knocking you. JBL are the biggest sellers in bluetooth speakers, nobody can deny that. Because of that everything gets compared to JBL. They have hits and misses just like everyone else. I spent a couple of years being knocked for liking the charge 3 which remains a classic. I just tell it like i see it, not all reviewers sadly are like that and have an agenda. Im not saying all reviewers are liars thats clearly not the case but the bigger channels tend to be tainted by an agenda bias.
First
faster than a speeding bullet 😁😁👌
Put it up against the "KING" W-King T9
trouble is my t9 is the original and i think there have been 3 revisions since so dont know how current ones sound.
@@alanrossreviews it would be extremely upsetting if they changed the near perfect tuning that the original had!!!
