Alan, I'm enjoying Your reviews like a fine wine. At first I was thinking...Yeah whatever, just like all the other reviewers on UA-cam. Then I watched a few more of Your reviews and now "I can taste the flavor" 😜😆🍷
@@Scarod. Rave Neo doesn't have great highs so it's either you want a bit more power (Rave Neo) or better highs (Motion Boom), both have very similar bass ! I picked the Motion Boom personally, I need clean highs and it's way lighter than Rave Neo
Greetings from Turkey, I bought a soundcore motion boom as a result of your comparisons, but can you share the EQ settings numerically, just like in the application, because the EQ setting affects the sound level and quality a lot. An EQ setting where I can get the best quality sound, thanks
the boom can be the new champion because of its flat frequency and linear bass response upto maximum... some people like the handle but it is kinda too big... maybe you can cut the handle off and polish it to look good... they could've done something like the neo handle... soundcore makes speakers with removable handle... to get the sound right at this price maybe they chose to go cheap looking... I really like the overall sound of the boom nothing really off or weird there...
@@alanrossreviews enjoying sounds much better that liking... I bought a new oneplus nord smartphone and there is a built-in 10 bands eq there it works fine but the amazing thing is it can save different custom eq for different BT speakers... so it plays different saved custom eq for different output devices... that process works really nice... I use it to bring the 3 khz peak down a little bit for the motion+ I don't need to worry about changing it every time as long as I am using the same phone... but you are right if you cannot embed the eq into the speaker you should only test the default... but if you can then you should try to get the best out of the eq... for personal use we can use third party eq but to review speakers like you u should avoid using third party eq... I think you also say the same...
Can you do a video comparing the soundcore motion boom vs the original soundcore rave mini? I know it's an older speaker now but I feel like they would be a good comparison. And it would be cool to see how an older speaker holds up against a newer one.
Whoah... the Motion Boom just slays at all volumes. It has something the other 2 dont, the airiness and that sparkle at the high end. The Rave Neo starts singing at higher volumes but still sounds boxy and almost thin in some tracks. Sounds muddy at the same time too. The Motion Boom sounds the best here, it sounds like a speaker that is 3 times its price. I would saw off that bloody handle though.
@@alanrossreviews we need a 80w motion boom with tweeters, bigger woofers and looking like a proper speaker. Without that cheapass looking handle. In white. Thats what we need.
@@AbsoluteFidelity Hahahah that will be more costy tho. But I get what you're saying, that would be a hell of a speaker, and i'm definitely not against the idea 🤷♂️😂
Actually thought of wrapping fabric on the outside plastics.. but yes the handle is a Thorn in the eye. Really like the RGB and backpack look on the rave neo.. is it really that bad? Motion boom is like 75euro and the neo is 133 on Amazon for me.. That said.. eventually I won't be staring at them all the time either.
The settings i use are on my Instagram, however these are not BEST settings but my own use settings. I use one eq that is biased for around 70%, adjust to your own ears and tastes.
I remember when fanboys of other brands said that Motion+ was a fluke, that Anker have no experience in audio... and yet, here's a boombox killer, with a decently flat sound, for cheap, with the ability to put a custom EQ on it. From an "inexperienced" brand.
With the neo At maximum volume I turn off the bass up and bring up the bass with equalizer. Also I highly suggest another neo for stereo pairing as it brings the best out of the neo.
Love your custom soundcore EQs - they truly do the job. Motion+ also shines that way. The only JBL I consider lovable right now is Go3 for it's pocketability :-)
JBL should swap that exclamation mark to a question mark cause wtf is up with their bass and sound getting trashed by a speaker 3 times less expensive. JBL step up your game x)
yep i know. Just do your stuff and it will eventually be time for that. U r one of the best reviewers on youtube in my opinion. Its because of objectivity and honesty.
Please can you detail the exact custom setup for the motion boom? Ie, the numbers you use on the app (+3, +2, -2, etc) . Thank you.. love your videos BTW.
only in terms of price, that 13khz peak does cut through. However you can get bass as deep from the other too, surprise to me too. with the right eq rave neo might be in your ballpark though, its lean sounding.
@@alanrossreviews It took me a while tinkering with the EQ on my Soundcore Neo app and the built in EQ on my phone, i have to put my phone EQ in flat and adjust to my liking the Soundcore EQ and now its perfect! Better than my Xtreme 2, the Bass in Rave Neo is deeper and soft the way i like it, the cymbals sounds so natural. Now i might buy another one.
@@alanrossreviews i believe there is new version with updated passive radiator and some bass boost at low level. i had the old one for a while. still wonder how they compare
Excellent review ! Still I think that Motion Boom sounds better than Neo. More openness and overall nicer sound picture in my mind. Motion Boom is REALLY impressive given the price.
yes i cant make up my mind, sometimes i listen to the boom and think wow how is it doing that, but then i listen to the neo and it sounds more open and the bass is less boomy and more controlled. 🙂
@@alanrossreviews Seems that Neo sounds different att different volume levels. Motion Boom is more "predIctable". But I myself don´t prefer mono speakers other than micro sized since multiple elements there would be too small and weak.
I hope they would make a 2nd version of the motion boom with a better redesign and more powerful drivers ... The sound is great but because of how the bass is getting so heavy the drivers can't handle it and forcing it to become Distorted.
Single Woofer Showdown???🤔 • JBL PartyBox On-The-Go (100W) • Philips Party Speaker TANX100/37 (40W) • Anker Soundcore Rave Neo (50W?) • Groove Onn Medium Party Speaker (W?) All single woofer Bluetooth BoomBoxes Happy New Year🥳🎉
Ordered the Boom now in addition to the Plus Both have their very own purposes and at this point I can accept that I've become a Soundcore fanboy I've even finally found a nice suiting pair of shelf speakers that I can replace my 2 puny satellites with so my ears are gonna love this christmas
@@alanrossreviews the Boom is the one present I already had to open and try out I'm surprised your EQ settings don't work super well for me. They feel like an improved version of the Soundcore Signature sound but I tried to sort of mimick the Motion Pluses with your custom EQ frequency response but with as much deep bass max volume can handle(which is the same value you have on the 80 Hz slider) and to say it is working very well for me is an understatement
You too Alan - stay safe. It’s been a crazy year ! ✨🥂 Keep up the good work 🔊🔊 It’s interesting when you said the JBL sounded off and at first you liked it . As you know I like the Beolit ..... but I re -vamped my old Sony portable iPod dock system ..... I found it in a box . It came out early 2000 ish ..... it still worked via AUX cable . Though weaker battery . Anyway , My Beolit sounded off against my old Sony system !!! I couldn’t believe it . Vocal where good on Beolit but sounded more echoey and metallic against the smooth sound of the Sony . It Just goes to show how your ears work, and what is pleasing when you have units side by side . Also how Sony have never quite got back up sound wise to that model . Hey ho I guess . 🥺
Man such a shame the Rave Neo / Trance Go (they look awfully similar) is so muddy even with all the EQ tinkering. Very glad however that the Motion Boom is getting a bit of that sweet deep bass, i'm waiting impatiently for it. Had a party last night and they went too crazy on my poor Motion+, guess i'll have to upgrade 😂 Thanks for all of your reviews as usual Alan. Wouldn't mind another EQ test of the Motion Boom vs the Motion+ since they're the current hot speakers right now.
@@alanrossreviews Do you think the W-King D8 is a good alternative to the Soundcore Motion Boom ? I saw the D8 for around 60 bucks whereas the Motion Boom is still missing here for us Europe fellers. Awesome awesome reviews, love them :D
sir do you have any latest improved EQ settings for rave neo? motion boom is not available in my country.. so i bought a rave neo.. i really like it though, the bass is quite clean and separation between bass and mid,treble is quite observable
JBL needs to stop with these ridiculous price tags the JBL charge 5 is soppose to be 200$ its like are you kidding me the xtreme 3 should be at most 250
@@alanrossreviews its an iphone thing apparently :/ open sc app and youtube but as soon as you try and use the app the sound goes off on youtube as your swapping to different screen unless you pay for youtube? i'll have to put music on my phone and set it that way. thx for reviews i'm happy with boom.
Hello Alan, Really enjoy your channel. I'm looking for a pair of portable bluetooth speakers that provide true Left/Right stereo with good quality sound to use with a portable projector for a traveling theater. Any suggestions?
@@alanrossreviews Hey Alan, thanks for responding... Why do you ask about latency? I haven't been having latency issues with my current UE Megaboom. But the Megaboom sound quality isn't that great for movies. I'm looking for a good sounding pair of portable true stereo L/R speakers that would provide better quality sound and a better movie experience.
Watts, RMS, Peak Watts??? What Gives! A Question Professor. A certain Bluetooth Speaker states “Output Power = 80W Max,” and its “RMS = 40W having a THD 1%,” What does this all mean & How does this compare to the speakers - ie: JBL Xtreme 3 - you’d recently reviewed? Thank you. Have a very Merry Christmas & a Happy & Healthy New Year🥳!
Only rms has meaning and standards so loosely applied in measurements to make a rough idea of what its producing. I test max real world volume, tells me what i need to know.
Great Review as always, i followed your EQ settings in Rave Neo and applied it to mine and its sounds better, I like it. I love my Rave Neo in fact i like it better than my Xtreme 2 especially after the EQ settings. I am very interested in buying the Motion Boom to partner with my Rave Neo, can you please please experiment if you can do Partycast (wirelessly synchronizes) the Rave Neo and the Motionboom? Right now I can partycast the Rave Neo and the Flare2.
i dont believe in this really. we all have different tastes with different speakers offering different things. there are several speakers i like and i cant say one is better than the other. My fav hi end is the minirigs. value speakers include the motion boom and motion plus.
A lot of times when i use connect+ and connect my speakers, there is a crackling sound while music is playing. They are in sync, but one of the speaker chops the music, like theres a connection error. Is this common on connect+? Hope someone helps🙏
It seemed like the neo handled the bass quite a bit better than the boom, obviously due to the woofer. The boom sounded like the kicks were a bit sloppy in comparison. I’m going to have to purchase the neo to here for myself! I prefer the boom plus over the neo but they seem impossible to purchase in Australia at the moment
@@alanrossreviews thanks for the reply man, yes I do agree the sound is fuller, I have 2 x motion booms and absolutely love them. I looked at the rave neo as I asked you about a recommendation for a speaker with aux in, I think the neo will work great as I will be using it as a speaker for my guitar and beatbox setup. As my music is not “mastered” I need a speaker that can handle a bit more audio abuse I guess I can call it. I have ordered the rave neo so hopefully it works well for me. I reckon 2 of them in stereo would sound pretty awesome! Thanks for your awesome videos man, I watch them to the end about 75 percent of the time haha!
A big selling point (for me) of the Rave Neo is the throw. I'm not exactly sure how you would scientifically test this, but I used to have a charge 3, and the rave neo is louder and the audio travels further. I think there's a value to that.
@@baijujose7789 clarity - the motion+ is hifi, the rave neo is a party speaker. I take the rave neo with me to the beach, it's loud and I get lots of questions from people asking me what the speaker is because they really like it. Nobody has said it is "not clear"
ONE MORE THING!!! 😲 All NEW WKING D9 vs Anker Soundcore Motion Boom - Fight! - The “SANS” Party Lights Brawl 😁 - The “Ugly Handles” Boombox Knockdown 😆
How a speaker looks asthetic wise does not mean anything to me. Sound Sound Sound Then features Now if the speaker was in the shape of a penis or something obscene then I would care.
Thorough and comprehensive as always I like the price/performance of the "Boom" but I own a Charge 3 and Xtreme2 so I will likely purchase another Xtreme2 or Xtreme3
Anyway....Xtreme3 all the way, looks nice, that Anker Boom i can't even look at that kkkk, X3 GG version is good to my ears & eyes...but that is just me....

Awesome review, you are the best 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
The boom is a beast 👍🏻
Man this dude not only reviewing on an unbiased detailed basis he is also funny af.
😝😝😝👏👏
Can you rank the top 3 2020 speakers considering the price & sound's quality?
i dont believe in this really. we all have different tastes with different speakers offering different things. there are several speakers i like and i cant say one is better than the other. My fav hi end is the minirigs. value speakers include the motion boom and motion plus.
A lot of times when i use connect+ and connect my speakers, there is a crackling sound while music is playing. They are in sync, but one of the speaker chops the music, like theres a connection error. Is this common on connect+?
Hope someone helps🙏
yup, it happens!
@@alanrossreviews thanks for the reply! Do you think i can do something to improve it?
@@altann2912 don’t use the app to connect them.
@@mikehancock6280 why
@@altann2912 the app causes the speakers to distort and skip. Without using the app the problems aren’t as drastic.
Hi.. Alan roses please review unboxing speaker teufel rockstar cross compare sony XB43. Thanks🙂
this 53.5 hz is annoying if i use the xtream 3 with the lfm i tested it with 47 hz and it sounds much better the limit is 40 hz in my opinion
53.5?
@@alanrossreviews yea or?
It seemed like the neo handled the bass quite a bit better than the boom, obviously due to the woofer. The boom sounded like the kicks were a bit sloppy in comparison. I’m going to have to purchase the neo to here for myself! I prefer the boom plus over the neo but they seem impossible to purchase in Australia at the moment
Its just that the neo has some big peaks and dips that the app eq cant touch. Its bass is better quality but boom has a fuller sound.
@@alanrossreviews thanks for the reply man, yes I do agree the sound is fuller, I have 2 x motion booms and absolutely love them. I looked at the rave neo as I asked you about a recommendation for a speaker with aux in, I think the neo will work great as I will be using it as a speaker for my guitar and beatbox setup. As my music is not “mastered” I need a speaker that can handle a bit more audio abuse I guess I can call it. I have ordered the rave neo so hopefully it works well for me. I reckon 2 of them in stereo would sound pretty awesome! Thanks for your awesome videos man, I watch them to the end about 75 percent of the time haha!
So, is the Soundcore Motion Boom your speaker of the year?
Hum, it could be 😝 but im not sure, its a bass first speaker. Its ugly as f&(k and larger than motion plus. 🤔🤔
Dang Alan. Shallow, much? I’m here for it though 🤣
A big selling point (for me) of the Rave Neo is the throw. I'm not exactly sure how you would scientifically test this, but I used to have a charge 3, and the rave neo is louder and the audio travels further. I think there's a value to that.
@@FursaFarfashaAm confused between soundcore motion plus vs Soundcore rave neo 50w.
How is the audio clarity in neo rave?
@@baijujose7789 clarity - the motion+ is hifi, the rave neo is a party speaker. I take the rave neo with me to the beach, it's loud and I get lots of questions from people asking me what the speaker is because they really like it. Nobody has said it is "not clear"
Take the W-king D9 to Reviews
😄
GREAT JOB 🎶 MOTION BOOM BEST VALUE FOR MONEY 💥 THANKS 😊
Thank you too!
for me the winner is motion boom, bass is strong and sounds clear.
yup my preference
👌🏻review...will have to think hard b4 getting the neo🥴
Did you find the neo more open sounding at all?
@@alanrossreviews mixed feelings of the sound ...still confused🥴
get the boom, you know you will have to at some point 😝
@@alanrossreviews as yet, still not avail. here🤥
10:53 exacly same sound😂
for 1/4 the price 👍
Returned the god awful jbl xtreme 3 with lack of eq adjustment eagerly awaiting my motion boom can't wait
let the fun begin.....
@@alanrossreviews would of been ideal if it had an aux input so I could run my chord mojo audioquest jitterbug combo through it for a decent dsp
yeah there is always something that isnt quite perfect about these speakers....
ONE MORE THING!!! 😲
All NEW WKING D9 vs Anker Soundcore Motion Boom - Fight!
- The “SANS” Party Lights Brawl 😁
- The “Ugly Handles” Boombox Knockdown 😆
60 watts vs 30 watts, you call that a fair fight?? 🤔
Anker Soundcore Motion Boom “takes on all comers,” The Anker TKO’ed the JBL Xtreme
Love Love your channel
Motion Boom is the winner in sound and a definite loser in looks, but hey-ho it's 80 pounds, so who cares.
Jbl are pretty pissed 😊
@@alanrossreviews of course, they should definitely be pissed at themselves for producing horrible overpriced junk for the last couple of years.
How a speaker looks asthetic wise does not mean anything to me.
Sound
Sound
Sound
Then features
Now if the speaker was in the shape of a penis or something obscene then I would care.
interesting line of thought....🤔
@@kriskeilman2087 i still think the Motion Boom feature looks better than Xtreme 3
Im watching using my Fender Indio. 😁
how do you like it?
Happy 18th 👍💪
👍😝
I knew it lmao
👏👏👌🤣
I like the sound from the motion boom but looks matter to me and I like the look of the Xtreme 3 so I have that now! :)
Kind of xtreme 3, 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
the price? 😂😂🙄
Thorough and comprehensive as always I like the price/performance of the "Boom" but I own a Charge 3 and Xtreme2 so I will likely purchase another Xtreme2 or Xtreme3
you could buy 3 booms for one xtreme 3 😋
I am a JBL fanboy as I like the design so price won't be a prerequisite.
Hello , fanboy
Sup✋
bro! 🤓
@@alanrossreviews ow yeah the bro part🤣
I still find the JBL Flip 6's better than the Soundcore Motion plus - heard it at Oluv's gadgets.
huh?
@@alanrossreviews Yeah lol 😁
Don't know why 😝
But what happened to Tribit?
I had their maxsound plus which was nice
now its been upgraded.
@@alanrossreviews That's awesome!
Btw, can you review the Flip 6?
Have you sourced one yet?
Thank you 👍
its already up!
Cara
Anyway....Xtreme3 all the way, looks nice, that Anker Boom i can't even look at that kkkk, X3 GG version is good to my ears & eyes...but that is just me....
