    Alan Ross Reviews Top Picks: Full list at www.otza.com/speakers/
    Top For value
    Tribit Stormbox Blast: Pound for pound champ! Unbeatable combination of deep bass and balance imho for the money. geni.us/stormboxblast
    Harman Kardon Go Plus Play 3: probably the minimum you can pay currently for a sort of hifi sound geni.us/goplay3
    Special shout-out
    Soundcore Motion Boom: geni.us/motionboom Amazingly deep bass to 40hz for its size and price. My last pound for pound champ before the Blast.
    Mifa Wildbox A Motion Boom alternative.. Some prefer its more neutral sound (they say) .geni.us/mifawildbox
    Soundcore Boom 2: decent value for fun aprty type sound that goes loud with good bass slam geni.us/soundcoreboom2
    Soundcore Motion Plus Still worth a look, my original world pound for pound champ the Motion Plus can still offer great clarity. geni.us/soundcoremotionplus
    £50 champion:
    Soundcore Boost V2 Great bass for its size, This is classed as a compact travel speaker but for me is a best buy at around £50.
    geni.us/soundcoreboost
    Good value Speakers I actually listen to:
    JBL PartyBox Encore: Very small battery but VFM for a deep bass party speaker
    geni.us/jblpartyboxencore
    Harman Kardon Go+ Play 3: warmer, smoother and bigger sounding than the go play 2, geni.us/goplay3
    Onyx Studio 5/6 These two speakers are the most deep bass heavy of the entire Onyx Studio series.
    geni.us/onyxstudio6
    Bag of Riddim 2: Not for everyone but a lot of fun especially with some reggae music geni.us/bagofriddim
    JBL Boombox 3 WiFi: Crazy price but I much prefer its balance to that of the BB3 bluetooth only edition which has a silly 700hz peak
    geni.us/jblboombox3
    Minirig mk3 2.2 system: The Minirigs are as fiddly as hell to setup and the app is flakey but when you get it right and the full 2.2 system (or 4.2 with the minis) is a fantastic hifi like listen.
    geni.us/minirigmk3
    Audio Pro C3: Open and neutral but lacks deep bass, also has WiFi connection
    .geni.us/audioproc3
    Marshall Stockwell 2: balanced immersive, not loud. A go-to for me for a relaxing moderate volume listen and quite accurate with bass at 8
    geni.us/stockwell2
    JBL Charge 5: geni.us/jblcharge5 Definitely one of JBL’s better value speakers.
    Mifa WildRod: geni.us/wildrod sits between Soundcore boost and Tribit maxsound plus in sound and is about the same size.
    Beosound A1 1st gen: better than 2nd gen, connectivity and battery issues. Deep bass for small size. Not cheap but one of the best listens for its very small and flat size.
    geni.us/a1gen1
    Denon 250bt: discontinued but still a reference for size/quality ratio.
    Tribit Maxsound Plus: The most neutral speaker you will find for size and price.
    geni.us/maxsoundplus
    Bose Soundlink Micro Same size as the Tribit Stormbox Micro but different sound signature. Very warm sounding but falls away at loud volumes (relatively). geni.us/bosesoundlinkmicro
    Tribit Stormbox Micro 2 Much cheaper than the Bose Micro option and way better value but a very different sound. More clinical (neutralish) than the Bose.
    geni.us/tribitmicro2
    Tribit Stormbox Pro: Recently dropped to $99 making it great value
    geni.us/tribitstormboxpro

    Let's see what improvement(s) the presets will do & again thank you for pointing out the button issues even though its not much of a problem, a led light on each button or different colour combination to make the buttons stand out is just ideal

    I can understand that Tribit was trying to breathe new life into one of their best sellers but it sounds like they pushed the drivers beyond their capability with that giant V. I have the original MaxSound Plus and I think it's still great for that neutralish tuning that it does. I think it would have been better to try to refine that if possible and leave it as the default tuning with the same option of adjustability in the app. At least they listened to constructive criticism and are actively taking steps to trying to improve their product (an increasingly rare trait among companies). Thank you for another excellent review and comparison, Alan! 😁👍👏

      @@ThibautMahringer alright but for me, having Two full range drivers that plays down to 65hz would only cause severe compromisation of upper mids and treble as strong woofer movements would create intermodulation. Separating treble from the rest is way better and separating bass, mids, treble just like JBL Boombox 3 produces a much more cleaner sound than two way. That's why speaker brands such as JBL ditched the two way system from their Boombox series as they need to have their speakers produce deeper bass but without compromising the mids.

      @@legendaryblood1937 From experience, owning both Charge 5 and Maxsound Plus, having treble actually playing in stereo sounds better than having one tweeter dedicated to treble.
      Though I'd agree that having two tweeters and two woofers is a better setup than having only two full range alone !
      I have nothing wrong to say about three way designs, as I enjoy my Go+Play 3. I don't like the tuning of Boombox 3 though, it sounds too bright and agressive in the mids to my ears.

      @alanrossreviews  Před 3 měsíci +5

      ​@@legendaryblood1937 i agree with the two full range drivers preference generally being way easier to implement in these small speakers. most of the issues tend to come from poor quality drivers and electronics. remember intermodulation distortion is any non linear harmonic and can be from anywhere along the signal path. hearing intermodulation does not mean its due to the drivers all the time. you also lose the need for the crossover. whatever the design there are trade-offs. having a three way and multiple crossovers albeit active is arguably not great for the sweet spot. remember these are not bookshelves with good left and right separation, ultimately its a small enclosure (relatively) with 6 drivers.
