Alan Ross Reviews Top Picks:
Pound for pound world champion:
Soundcore Motion Boom: geni.us/motionboom
Amazingly deep bass to 40hz for its size and price.
Still worth a look:
My former world champ the Soundcore Motion Plus can still offer great clarity.
geni.us/soundcoremotionplus
£50 champion:
Great bass for its size, Soundcore Boost: geni.us/soundcoreboost
A little bigger but a decent listen for the price BOGASING M4: geni.us/bogasingm4
Bass Heavy Speakers:
Harman Kardon Go+ (mid and upper bass heavy but with decent balance): Play geni.us/goplay
Onyx Studio 6 (warmer than the 7, maybe too bass heavy in balance): geni.us/onyxstudio6
Hi End Picks
Minirig mk3 2.2 system: geni.us/minirigmk3
Great for portable low deep kick: Onyx Studio 6 (more bass than Onyx 7): geni.us/onyxstudio6
Monitor Like openess and neutrality but lacks deep bass Audio Pro C3: geni.us/audioproc3
Best Micro Options:
Bose Soundlink Micro (warm): geni.us/bosesoundlinkmicro
Tribit Stormbox Micro (clinical): geni.us/tribitstormboxmicro
Worth a Look:
W-King T9: geni.us/wkingt9
The T9 is a reasonably loud and balanced party speaker with a big bright detailed sound.
Budget Loud Boombox: no clear winner but my pick for fun outside listen would be:
W-King X10-1 for form factor and loudness geni.us/wkingx10
W-King D9 for bass with a little smoother signature: geni.us/wkingd9
Travel Speakers:
Marshall Stockwell 2: geni.us/stockwell2
offers a decent immersive sound with full and tight bass. Beware though it does go very loud
JBL Charge 5: geni.us/jblcharge5
Only mono but has a very clear and dynamic sound at low volumes and can go reasonably loud but will become a little screechy over 80%.
Denon 250bt, no longer made but the standard for size/quality ratio for travel (battery drain issues)
JBL Flip 6: for low to moderate volumes offer decent bass with a knockable form factor.
Alan Ross Reviews, probably the best reviews in the universe :)

As a sound engineer and producer, you are the best reviewer by miles mate. Thank you so much.
high praise indeed and i accept 😁😁 thank you 👍
Found your channel after purchasing a Soundcore Motion+, great resource and advice.
Welcome aboard!
Thank you Alan for all your time you put into these videos, they help so many people decide on what to purchase!!! I for one have watched lots of your videos and have now just ordered the Soundcore Motion Boom! Thanks again!!!
hope you enjoy 👍
As always, nice job and very entertaining. I appreciate your time. Also just ordered the motion boom. On sale for $72.99 U.S. Excited! 😁
you will be even more excited when you order your second 😁😁😁
Very nice speaker for the price. Nothing comes close in that price range.
Seeing your video convinced me to buy that speaker. Soundcore plus. thanks very good 👍 video
Thank you so much Alan. More power to you from Singapore!
thank you 🥳🥳

Hey alan, I only wanted to thank you for your great work, I appreciate your videos a lot, they help very much in decission making. Wish you all the best. Keep the good work up bud 🤝💪🏻
Greetings from Germany
merry christmas from UK 😋
I know this was absolute slaughter but I was seriously debating between the Flip 5 and the Soundcore Motion+ a few weeks ago due to price. Your videos have entirely changed my mind and have been the biggest eye/ear opener when it comes to Bluetooth speakers! I seriously appreciate the reviews! Thanks to you I saved my $130 at Best Buy for a Flip and instead have a Motion Boom on the way! Your videos are the best Alan!
oh yeah they are on different planets in terms of sound 😝
In real life, the JBL Flip 6 actually sounds better than the Motion Plus. It has a lot more clarity and less muddy Bass, the Motion Plus is great for the price, but there is a noticeable difference between the clarity
@@straightflush6095 well well.. motion+ is a 3yr old release and back then, jbl didn't even know what tweeters were... especially at these sizes. Back then, the motion plus even outperformed the Xtreme2 in loudness and completely blowed the charge4 away in bass, loudness and clarity. It took jbl 3years to finally release the charge5 which could beat the vintage speaker even though the c5 is quite a bit chunkier.
@@stargazerxd13 it really is a great speaker, loudness and claritywise its almost on par with the xtreme 2 which is really damn impressive, but it never had any deep bass, just upper bass
I love your videos its so funky and actually really informative for audiophiles
Im not sure im one for true audiophiles, i think more of being for enthusiasts 😁
@@alanrossreviews we all like someone enthusiastic haha
I subbed and liked and wanted to say thank you for such clear and organized reviews, straightforward and lovely. And an all around bit of nice "chillin with a friend in their sweet room" vibe. I'm going to go off back to your page and try and look for the next "level up" in terms of quality. From the little I've learned I'd assume that would mean looking at 50W or 60W speakers next? Still though, I wonder if those speakers are going to be huge and unwieldy or still portable like I'm looking for.
Awesome, thank you! those bigger speakers tend to be boomboxes and not next level up in audio quality. im still searching myself. ive had speakers costing several hundreds of pounds and they all tend to be quite niche meaning they sound good only in certain scenarios, or genres or volume levels. not my idea of money well spent. 😁 tx for sub!
Great explanation and presentation as always...
always appreciated even though this was my most predictable video yet i guess 🤪
Ross Boss! I almost got suckered into buying a Flip but you saved me. I ended up buying the boom. the more I hear from the motion boom the happier I am that I went with it. Purchased it yesterday for $80. Can’t beat it at all. My last speaker was a Ion Surf…which to be honest was junk. I’m still rocking my Monster Superstar from 2014 but its battery is shot. I almost have to leave it plugged up constantly so it stays in the bathroom and I listen whilst I’m showering.
Now you can dream of two booms 😜
You do good work, mate.
Much appreciated 👍
Every time you said after experiencing the Motion Boom you couldn’t go back to the Motion+ I was giving you the side eye. That is until now. Now that I finally copped the MB I know exactly how you feel. I didn’t know I needed more bass, or better yet sub bass 😂. Do I dare say that this speaker sounds incredible, especially when you consider its size and price. The first thing I played on the MB was Monolink’s album “Under The Darkening Skies” and it sounded impeccable. If your not familiar (singer songwriter meets EDM) please check it out. Btw, I used your eq settings. Thanks you
yup, you just get a whole dollop more of the track missing from the plus. 😁😁
@@alanrossreviews also not that much clarity is sacrificed
@@alanrossreviews Don’t know if you noticed but the dude from the “Wanna Buy It” CZcams channel recently did a comparison between the Wildbox and the Motion Boom. Supposedly Mifa asked him specifically to compare…. He does and he prefers the Wildbox. One caveat though is he refuses to use the MB’s custom eq. What’s the point if you’re not. I have a feeling that most of these tech reviewers on CZcams who’ve tested or compared the Motion Boom don’t use the custom eq.
yes thats totally missing the point. i still get people telling me its not fair if i eq it but again they miss the point. its not layered eq, its replacing the default dsp and the speakers firmware is designed to play nice with it. plus it will play that eq not matter what source device. so thats why i only compare a speaker with eq when its a firmware eq. but end of day, who gives a shit? they can come to my channel to hear some eq on it or use mr wanna buy it channel to hear default, so options all round. i dont watch that channel btw,. now i think using custom eq against the wildbox is important because thats a big difference between them, the ability to embed eq in the boom and have multiple eqs. yeah mifa sent me the wildbox to, just havent had a chance to to the video yet. it will come.
motion + is so much more hifi sounding then boom. sure boom offers more bass but that`s all it has to offer. in the end it`s about hifi or bass.
thank for all your videos! just came around because I'm looking for a speaker to play synths outdoor on a minimal setup... yeah for now I did order Motion Boom and W-King D7 (didn't you yet make a comparaison on that one?). I will try to make my own comparaison but honnestly I am secretly hoping you'll try D7 as well.
Only thing I don't need on Motion Boom, is that handle. Loosing place for my setup, and unfortunalely a big issue for me where I need to save place. I did consider D8 or D9 (and removing that handle on the D9), but decided to give a chance to the D7-60W, because it is the latest one from W-King and it would fit perfect my coffer.
I just shortly update. I am at the moment testing both D7 and motion boom. No idea why, but I prefer D7. but it's a close thing. Seems to me the D7 had more brightness still basses are very good making boom boom. But I am testing them right after unpacking, without any change in EQ.
You are awesome Sir. After watching your reviews video I don't have to watch anyone else's reviews. ❤️ From India 🇮🇳..
Glad you like them! 👌
Great video as always, no surprises with the results, I almost feel embarrassed for JBL!! Just curious, how did you get into reviewing Bluetooth speakers Alan?
just fell into it. i just wanted to mess with stuff on youtube. i reviewed a lot of different stuff just for fun but i was always an audio guy and when i got a ton of stick for liking the charging 3 and critising the vifa helsinki i kinda figured we need more opinions out there. the so called audiophile channels were insisting what they think is the only right way to think which as we all know is boll%^&s.
Good job you did as I would not of ended up with my two speakers otherwise 😀😀
JBL is better
Respectfully disagree, it’s a good sound alright but not worth the money
I had Motion+ before I started watch your YT channel. After watching your movies I bought Motion Boom. Both Anker speakers are fantastic, best on the market among the competition. I would never swap or think about JBL speakers.
yes they compliment each other 👍
Such a shame you can't stereo link them so their strenghts can be combined.
If the Boom had an aux port then you'd be able to connect them via a splitter...
Let's hope Soundcore makes a motion boom 2
Only thing is JBL can have 100 connected, anker is 2 max
JBL is more compact, that's the whole point of portable speakers, you cannot carry suitcase everywhere.
@@steveaustin6608 it’s so big for no reason, it’s electronics board is pretty small and cheap, the speaker drivers take up about 45% of the front of the speaker and the handle is brittle plastic. I prefer the soundcore motion+ to the boom
Thanks for great review! Which custom EQ should i use for older black Motion+ 36 FW? Is EQ for 37 FW suitable better for black one, or should i use your older EQ from older reviews? (i ve read that acoustically new and old speakers are the same, but EQ-s are very different 36 vs 37 in your reviews)
right different firmware different tuning. use my older eq but adjust to your liking.
@@alanrossreviews thanks a lot for quick answer! i suggest this is the most actual EQ for black Motion+ 36FW czcams.com/video/kjqa9pDvVTU/video.html ?
Your reviews and custom eq are the best. My motion+ is rattling after 2 years and can’t decide if I should get another or the boom. Love the tweeters in the +
you should really have both, one for real deep bass and the other for open detailed sound, boom though would be my first choice
@@alanrossreviews thanks. I’m gonna get the motion boom with the Amazon deal. Love the detailed sound of the + though. My old motion+ only distorts / rattles seemingly from one tweeter above 80% or so volume, so I think I’ll continue using that and cranking up the boom when I want bass 😎 Have yet to try either speaker in stereo either
Or you can consider Mifa wildbox, looks like motion boom but have tweeters, sounds very god. At lower volume the bass is less bosted than the boom, but at Max volume it sounds great, deep full bass and very good clarity. And it have lights 😎
@@alanrossreviews just got the motion boom. Definitely a beast in its own right. Still playing around with the custom eq, can get some interesting results. Immediately heard the lack of the tweeters, I’ve come to love the high end the + can deliver. You can almost make the boom sound like it has tweeters with the EQ but you can still tell in certain parts of arrangements ;) Interesting in trying that Wildbox, but QA looks a little worse. Overall very happy for more detailed low end with the Boom, and a lot of things sound less constricted. but I love how responsive the little +’s low end sounds too :)
@@chandlerboster7084 from where did you got motion boom please tell
JBL just throwing new speakers to Soundcore's slaughterhouse at this point, the 100% volume test was a massacre for the Flip 6. Gotta love that Motion Boom deep bass rumble. Brought both my Motion Boom paired in TWS at a party and they were all grabbing them by the handle like an old school Boombox having a blast so hell say all you want about the design the Motion Boom is just pure fun. Thanks for the review / comparison as usual Alan :D
fun fun fun!!!!!!!!! with a handle! 😋
Everyone was wearing a mask ?
@@a.m.3118 No mask but we all made sure everyone was vaccinated since we have an app here to check and prove you've got a vaccination certificate. No covid issue afterwards so all good 👍 party was already delayed last year due to covid so yeah, happy we could properly celebrate this time.
@@KrazyShark omg I didnt realize you would take it that serious dude. Relax. Cov is a political thing, not a real threat. When you get older you ll learn politics and their games especially as a britan...
@@a.m.3118 I mean, you asked. We just followed rules, as long as we don't get arrested. Also having my uncle who died due to Covid and calling it a "not real threat dud harhar its just a political thing dud relax lol" is pretty disrespectful of you. When you get older you'll learn that we all have different views about things.
👍🏽🔥🔥👍🏽 before seen your video, I vote motion plus and boom 😁
A proper subscriber 😝😝🍻🎊
😯... surprise result... the filp 6 gets thoroughly thrashed. 🙈 It was fun to watch, though. Depending on pricing, you could buy a motion boom or plus and still have enough for either a maxsound plus, soundcore boost, or bogasing m4 as compared to one flip 6. There's the argument for the flip being smaller, lighter, and more throwable but that's the best it has to offer. Outstanding comparison, as always, Alan! 👍😁👏
yup! its small and knoackable and better than the flip 5. for a lot of people thats all they need to know. then there is the crowd that gets excited because it has a tweeter and for them that will also be enough.
hey Alan! the Xtreme 3 received an update and it now has EQ too like the Flip 6.
Will you do a video on it?
not for a while, christmas is coming....😇
Awesome videos thanks I credit you to owning the motion boom and soundcore boost.
When you did your eq you mentioned before they are designed for max volume level. If listened mostly at 40-60% volume, would mostly just the 80 and 150hz change? As that's what changes the most when maxing out the volume.
Thanks!
no i tend to base it around 75% so still works overall but at lower volume yeah bring that bass down.
Alan you know how much I love the motion boom, I have two of them. My son Austin (8) keeps asking me can I listen to your speaker daddy?So I have to let him listen to one of my motion booms. Because of your reviews motion boom has gone up from $85 to almost $105. I wanted to get my son his own speaker but did not want to pay the 105. So I waited patiently and sure enough yesterday it went on sale for $73. It was so good I tried to buy two of them for him but it said only one per customer on Amazon. None the less I got him his own motion Boom for only 73 US dollars. When I bought mine I got mine on sale for $80 each. As you know no speaker comes close to these in stereo for the money. I find you very funny keep up the great work. when you review the motion bloom again see if you can mention Ray and Austin from USA and how much we love the speaker and how I bought my eight-year-old austin his own motion boom speaker for Christmas. Your buddy Ray from USA 🇺🇸 🤪
i will try and remember but dont shoot me if i forget 😝😝 big shoutout to austin anyway 🤗🤗
@@alanrossreviews thanks 😊
There's a lot of buzz going on with the Mifa wildbox. Is the Anker soundcore motion boom still the best pound for pound beast or is the Challenger, wildbox, going to take the crown away.
Find out next time on Allan's ball Z
it might be close....still to come...........
Yup knew the results but it's still a fun video. Motion Boom went for about £60 on black friday.
How about comparing Flip 6 against some of the Micro speakers?
where does it all end though 🤪 if there is enough interest then i do the video but otherwise not possible to cover all requests sadly 😭
@@alanrossreviews No worries. I had to temporarily replace the Boost with the Tribit Micro for awhile and it turned out to be decent alternative - if only the battery wasn't so short. 😂
2021🏆goes to the motion boom...love it
The year of the boom, 👌👌👍
I only love the motion+, has that typical soul for me, but my eye is on the stockwell 2 👀, i love its sound and looks, just beautiful.
yup stockwell has its own character
Hey Mr Alan! Great reviews on bluetooth speakers. I enjoy looking at them even of I am not looking to buy a speaker :)
But now I want to buy one. I will use it in the house, but also outside for bbq and small gatherings. Would you say that the Boom is still the best for the money today? Thank you!
Also consider the rave neo if you will use outdoors a lot
@@alanrossreviews I could test the Rave Neo on a local store (only Soundcore speaker they have), but I think it is too big for using inside. Instead of the Rave Neo I would wait for the Boom Plus, but I think that it also big.
Are you sure it was the rave neo? It isnt that big.
@@alanrossreviews it was the Rave Neo. It looked big next to the JBL Extreme. But maybe it was because of the form factor. Also, The Rave Neo is 120 eur here in my country, while the Motion Boom is 80. Do you think Is it worth the extra money?
outdoors yes
Enjoying my Flip 6. Thank you for all your work
Youre welcome 😊
Love you bruh❤️
JBL till the end 😂
Hey Alan, love your reviews mate! Just got myself a Realme Brick bluetooth speaker, i think its terrific VFM. Can you get your hands on one? I think you'll want to test this one..
noted
@@alanrossreviews cheers!
I just picked up the Flip 6 a week ago. I am loving the sound quality. It is plenty loud enough imo. I didn't buy this to shake the wslls--I have a larger home system to do that. The Flip does have one downside which is a somewhat shorter battery life. I have a 40,000 mah power bank to address that. I bought the JBL for 2 reasons--smaller form factor--it is only 1.2 lbs vs the Anker 4plus lbs weight. I will be taking this backpacking, and on my mtb during commutes. It is much smaller than the Anker, and so a much better choice for me. Re sound quality--that is my second reason. I expected good sound from JBL and am very satisfied with the Flip 6. It cranks loud enough for what I want, and sounds great! Not a JBL fanboy as this is my first purchase of a JBL product. There are so many good choices out there--this is just my 2 cents worth.
Ultimately its about user scenarios and preferences 👌 sounds like you nailed yours, 👍
I haven’t seen the EQ app for my motion+ which arrives this week. Where are the custom settings you suggest? Thanks
Check my IG
Hello Alan!)
Can you post anywhere screenshot of your equalizer of Soundcore Motion Plus?)
on my IG
Should I update my Flip 6 to the most recent firmware?
It would be nice if you compare Motion Boom and Anker Select Pro in detail.
no need, select pro is crap
What about pairing two motion pluses with the custom eq, will it ever happen?
ive done videos on this in the past.
No matter where I search. I still haven't found a speaker as compact and powerfull as the Motion + with that clarity... Yes, not that deep bass, but still, anything of its size can't compare with that little speaker beast. I've managed to burn the tweeters a couple of times via the aux input tho.
motion boom and motion plus are so good even soundcore cant beat them. two of them will beat almost anything up to £300
In my country, flip6 and anker motion plus have same price, around 140$..I wanted Flip but I reconsidered to Motion plus. Sounds clearer
oh yeah m+ sounds better if you are a seasoned listener
Greetings MR Alan
love your reviews...just one complain though; why not test all speakers on a flat EQ and then normalize using the spl meter, just for the sake of consistency as all speakers don't use the same app. Then you could drop the technical graphs and custom eq settings down the description(or even start a squiglink for speakers)
ive been through this multiple times. i do it my way and i cant please everyone. i use custom where it can be embedded into the firmware and where it makes a significant difference. on first review of every speaker you get to hear it in default. you cant normalise with a spl meter. sadly too many people have been mislead by other channels and think this actually makes sense. you are talking max readings. this is in no way a way to normalise tracks. not a million miles close. its hard battling the amount of misinformation out there.
@@alanrossreviews thanks for your prompt response. Have you considered using an external eq app
did you read my response? i only use eq in the comparisons where it can be embedded in the firmware, no external app can do that.
I have the motion boom and the battery was good for a while but after about 3 months of use it goes from 100% to 50% in only two hours at full volume
to be honest if you are playing bass heavy tracks at max then 50% after two hours isnt awful.
why did you lower down the treble for jbl?, what's the point of suppressing the new tweaker they added in this speaker??
if you had listened to my explanation you would know. 😁
Yes Sir Alan 🏆
on time for once 🙈🙈
Rip Flip 6 JBL need to cut down there prices especially on the Pulse 4 and Xtreme 3.but I want to use your EQ for the Motion Boom to see your sound preference😁
my preference depends on the speaker though. they all have strengths and weaknesses 😁 dont judge me! 😭
Lol my motion boom only other non JBL/HK speaker I have besides my Sennheiser momentum 3 JBL headphones never been that good sadly
do you think the latency for the motion boom (170ms) will be too much to view CZcams videos on a laptop?
if you get same latency then no thats not useable. however everyones use will give a different result, this is just my experience.
I have the Boom and two Flip 6. Got addicted to the Boom, love it!. But I want bigger! Want the Soundcore Motion Boom Plus, as soon as i saved up :-)
the blast would be the grown up boom not the boom plus
What would you choose a pair of Flip 6 or one Motion+ for a deeper base and powerful sound?
Probably two flip 6s but its a hard call.
Deeper bass is always the motion boom.
For outside which is the best ? And also are the two anker speakers better than the charge 4?
yes i would say both better than charge 4, but charge 5 might have the beating of the motion plus
@@alanrossreviews thanks but my budget is limited and can't afford charge 5 so im between these
Please help me choose. Between flip 6 and charge 4
I wanted to ask if there is any sound different between the motion boom and motion select pro??
Yes, boom is better
@@alanrossreviews wanted to buy after seeing ur review but only the select pro is available 🥲
I was asking for it and I am not disappointed :D Who the hell would buy Flip 6 for this price? I'm a happy owner of the Motion Plus and the only thing I want now is a Motion Boom, just for fun :P
its about the form factor/size, and a great logo 😋
Help! I don’t feel like I understand what “clean” sound means, I feel like the Anker Motion Boom is crisper, and is that not the same thing? 😭 I felt like I could hear things more distinctly on that than the Motion Plus, but maybe I’m crazy.
clean = minimal distortion
I swear the follow ups Anker has to do after the Motion Boom & Plus need to be god level & JBL need to get it right and redeem themselves on the Charge 6/Xtreme 4...2022 is going to be exciting!!
will be interesting.......................🤗
Firstly, I would like to congratulate you on the channel, could you give me your EQ for motion boom focused on the bass/sub-bass, thanks in advance! And lots of success on the Alan Ross channel!
My eq is on my ig
Your the man to ask , does anyone make an app that connects multiple bt speakers to my phone and or my echo dot ??
you need wifi capable multiroom speakers.
Did you see the new firmware update on the Motion Boom??
nope not seen it yet..
@@alanrossreviews 00.35, it says bugs fixed, click more info => bugs fixed xD
I ordered the motion plus on sale this week, I believe I read I could charge my phone on it?
nope
Either way, that's not a good idea since you're putting extra cycles on your difficult to replace integrated speaker battery.
Just buy a small powerbank instead, you can even charge your speaker in case that loses juice first
What's the sense in having a tweeter if you're going to bring the high-frequency all the way down on the flip 6?
tamed not cut.
See the frequency response on high volumes and you'll have the answer. I bet it would be unlistenable if not equalized.
@@alanrossreviews, In other words, the tweeter is useless! "Mono" plus a useless tweeter...no thanks!

Please anker come out with a motion boom that's a little more rugged and has tweeters, that's all I would want, my end game speaker.
the mifa wildbox?
@@alanrossreviews how mifa wildbox stand against the boom?
similar but wildbox only has default tuning but sounds decent enough with lights and tweeters.
@@alanrossreviews how much louder is wildbox? it says it`s 60 w
Anker just announced the Motion Boom Plus - 2 30W woofers and 2 10W tweeters. I am debating buying the Boom Plus OR Motion+. Thoughts?
I'm concerned about how the Motion plus is being pushed to its limits at max vol .. thats too much of a bass boost it distorts too much
im here to push the boundaries..... 😝
I just tested the JBL and Anker motion+ side by side and the JBL sounded quite a bit cleaner. I adjusted the EQ on the motion+ using your settings, and then adjusting them to replicate the JBL sound and realized it was the limitation of the hardware that was creating the muddy sound on the motion+. The only time the Anker won out is in songs with heavy stereo L - R separation (nina simone's sinnerman in my test). Even then, stereo sound isn't a big priority in a small speaker for me. I would rather get two small JBLs down the road then two of the Ankers
well this is a surprise to me but ultimately you have to go with your own ears.
Soudcore boom I bought 4 units on sale at walmart $50 each best deal ever
Decided that the Jbl flip 6 was the best for my needs needed a good portable speaker that wasn’t too heavy, almost bought the anker soundcore motion+ until I heard that it was dubble the weight, anyways love my Flip 6!
m+ sounds better though.
@@alanrossreviews 100 precent agree with you just didint fit my needs, needed something smaller and something they didint way to much
@@alanrossreviews does it weight more then the flip 6?
@@1xnsrlgaming884 yup, if you want that size look at the mifa wildrod, you may find it better value or soundcore boost
@@alanrossreviews I actually own 2 soundcore boosts but don’t really feel there super portable I don’t know why I think it’s because they don’t have lanyards
The Boom rules the world!
But what does the mifa wildbox bring to the table... This could be the closest yet 🤪
@@alanrossreviews Mifa is maybe better at Max volume, at lower volume i prefer the boom for more bosted bass. But Mifa is sweet at Max volume 🙂
@@alanrossreviews you planning on piting these two together 😉
Wow motion plus color blue i love it i want that 😇👉🔊🎵🎶🎧🎼
so buy it??? 😲
seem like this soundcore motion plus is stopping production ? mine own well dead after a year.
where are you getting that from?
Can you a vs video bose soundlink flex vs soundcore motion + please
noted
Do motion pluses distort at particular eq settings??
yes if you push upper bass
holy crap.... yesterday prime day I bought motion+ for 67euros, but after watching some comparisons on YT I'm having second thoughts that maybe I should cancell my order and get the Flip 6 now I'm shocked how sometimes similar other times much worse it sounds compared to motion+ on your vid... dunno what's going on why on some yt channels one sounds better than the other and vice versa?
very few youthbe channels actually make decent recordings, you cant just place a phone in front of a speaker and press record. why not get the motion boom?
@@alanrossreviews Boom is way too big and I hate the handle. Also fear of too much bass. Seems like motion+ is the only cheap price allarounder with balanced sound (after EQ) and low latency, which plays an important factor since I'm gooing to use it with chromecast for YT and movies. Though still craving for Flip 6, but the more I know about it the more I realize it's more for casual music listening on the go, so maybe I'll get one for the good price. Soundcore offer more features and I'm hoping I will get pleasing sound with it.
the upgrade to the m+ would be the marshal Stockwell 2
Согласен. Цена разная. Мощность разная. Самая меньшая это у flip 6
Но boom мне не понравился.
Сравниваем plus и flip 6
Какая играет лучше с настройками из коробки? Уверен это flip 6
Также на порядок компактнее это jbl.
Но продолжаем сравнивать plus и flip6
Сейчас цена почти одинаковая. На plus надо настраивать эквалайзер. Лично мне эти настройки не нужны. Сколько себя знаю. Не любитель ковыряться настраивать чтобы остаток времени послушать. Люблю. Включил. И играет на уровне.
В общем за меньшие размеры и меньше усилий на настройки, я бы выбрал flip 6!
Но plus играет громко и хорошо!
Но она больше
флип 6 даже борется с флексом саунлинк
Motion boom and flip 6 both is 299AED in Dubai. I don't know which one i buy.
Flip 6 doesn't have the deep bass that the motion boom has. Motion boom is a bigger speaker flip 6 is small and portable. It depends on what you need it for but if it's my money I'm going with the boom.
@IamJay02 i will for sure to motion boom. Thanks.
Which is best sound quality among these three?
did you watch the video?
@@alanrossreviews Yeah but i couldn't catch so will you tell me.
it depends on your taste, plus for detail boom for bass.
How about the Charge 5 against the soundcore
Which soundcore because i already did this for both 👍
Should i get JBL flip 6 or Soundcore Motion Plus?
sound: motion plus
form factor: flip 6
@@alanrossreviews is the sound between both speakers are not that different from each other?
@@meljorinlayese2053 very different, m+ is better
soundcore 'motion boom plus' Vs all comparsion ?
All? 🤔
Reccomend a good eq for the motion+
I had flip 6 and motion plus. Both are good. There’s a difference..flip 6 bass is very good in size and easy portable … whereas motion plus bass is not good, But it is stereo sound and is good when kept at high volume. That is good for it. Finally, I prefer flip 6 for bass and easy portable than motion plus.
i would add a second flip 6
@@alanrossreviews i wanna buy charge 5. I think charge 5 single is better than 2 flip 6. cant wait. So excited. So which version is good ? ND or TT or TL version.
Another thrashing courtesy of soundcore.
so satisfying............. 😁

Thanks Alan

arghhhhhh 😁😁
The xtreme 3 now really has the EQ update and I really love it😂
good times....................
@@alanrossreviews I personally keep treble and mids at max and the bass indoors above half and outside decrease the bass, for me the sound is much much clearer and I get some more loudness
wont get a chance till after xmas now
Time for a rematch, Anker boom vs JBL Xtreme 3 with custom EQ
speaking of JBL EQ, are JBL speakers still decreasing the bass response and pushing up the mids and highs when volume is over 75% on custom EQ?
Hello alan😅 can you start reviewing Chinese speaker like xdobo, tronsmart etc.
Every speaker is Chinese 🤪
@@alanrossreviews my correction , Chinese "brand"
I don’t understand the hate for the flip 6 at the moment. Had the motion plus and jbl flip 6 for testing, for me the flip 6 was the clear winner! (After adjusting EQ settings on both). Of course it’s not that powerful/loud at high volumes like the motion, but it’s three times smaller!!! It’s way more portable and durable and at low volumes, it sounds much better, warmer and clearer, that’s my opinion. Sent back the motion and proud of JBL.
whose hating?
I have motion plus
Who'd have thought 😂
its a shocker 😂
Actually, when it comes to Soundcore, the Motion+ was meant for indoor use --- and the Motion Boom was meant for outdoor use. Maybe you're going to basketball game at the park, --- you take it with you --- or maybe you're washing the car and you want some music, you get the Motion Boom and set it nearby (it's waterproof by the way). It even has a handle so that you can just grab it. 😎
well im not convinced by this 😁 the modern way seems to be deep bass for indoors upper bass for outdoors. In my day it was just about a consistent sound inside and out and then you would be more correct. You get a big bass boost in most rooms.

Boom boom boom
