    Finally a review that's honest...when most ppl do a review it seems like they always by default think the newer model is soooo much better...I also have both,and wile the micro 2 does sound a hair better ..it's not worth the money if you already have the older model and money is tight...like I said wile the newer model is a lil better....it's very slight!! For instance 5.3 by vs 5.0,..it's just silly cause there's not hardly any difference! The sound is slightly better in newer model but if your over 40 yrs old your probably not gonna notice anyways...I actually just use my older one till it dies on me then I'll continue with the newer one..

  • @ParisLondonRoma
    @ParisLondonRoma Před 2 lety +6

    I bought a Tribit StormBox based on all the great reviews. The second I turned it on I was disappointed in how it sounded (flat and muffled) and knew I was returning it. Then I discovered I had the first version and not the StormBox 2. Now I have the second version and its much better. I think #1 is garbage tbh. I'll add that the speaker sounds better when the face is pointing at a listener instead of facing up at a sky of ceiling. If the speaker is (say) attached to handlebars then the speaker can be tilted to face rider/listener. Just laying the speaker flat on a table, desk etc doesn't sound as good

    @dropsum Před 2 lety +7

    More battery, EQ app, better and more visible controls, improved Bluetooth - even at full price (compared to rivals) it very much worth the upgrade! (just ordered V2). I used V1 daily on my bike, and imho its only weakness is the rubber strap. Could be better (nobody made it better than UE Roll - sadly, it doesn't sound as good), and I've already got it broken on one of my speakers - right next to the "hook" (which is a piece of plastic inside the rubber strap), thin rubber torn apart. I wonder if they improved it somehow as well.

    • @dropsum

      So far so good! They did improve the mount somewhat, so plastic hook doesn't break through rubber easily. (And I attach speaker almost everyday to the stem, not even handlebars).

      Thanks for info. In both Manuals they do say pair with the same model. On another question someone has mentioned that you can pair Micro1 and micro 2 to be a stereo system. But you need to pair micro 2 with phone, as the master speaker and then pair the micro 1 with micro 2 but not with the phone. Have also seen a video of the 2 different models being paired. Will have a go doing this over the weekend.
