[...] How can you tell the width range and direction of the sound? I find w my 3 WYE speakers they sound fantastic w aux and tws and I stand farther from them. With aux there is more detail, and the speaker w more bass adds richness w the aux sound. That speaker in bluetooth mode has less background detail but more obvious beat bass. I bought them at a food mart. [...] The nuances w aux and the quality of sound are great. The soundbar is SKR09, the small speaker is SKR17 (and those two can tws w each other), and the one w extra bass is SKR12, which won't tws w the others. [...]
I bought a pair of Xiaomi Mi S29d(also sold as Xiaomi Sound Outdoor 30W) speakers. [...] But the clarity of sound is insane, bass is deep and tight, 12 hour battery life and a bit extra with real use, stereo pairing(or up to 100 speakers) and water resistance. [...] The passive radiators really make the bass even stronger when you put the speaker next to a solid wall. [...] Only a decrease in bass to prevent damage. [...] The last time I used their portable speakers was the SRS-XB30.
I bought the new champagne color and the matt black. [...] However sound wise is more like to listening in shower on small space. [...] Don’t get me wrong they are ok but not loud at all, clear sound too. [...]
[...] Alright BUT I need that good speakerphone function & a good one at that like on the Sony ULT FIELD 1. [...]
I like sony's sound alot better i went to various stores and compared speakers especially from jbl and sony and i prefer sony i got the ult 9 now im going to get a smaller one maybe ult 5 or 7
I use mine mostly when I'm riding my e-scooter or bike and I wish there was some quick attachments or at least attachment points on these. The JBL is terrible for this.
I bought 2 Ult 1s ,and it sounds way better if use the equalizer in the Sony app
beats pill definitely does not have more bass than Sony, without 2 passive raditators, how can it be more bass with similar 2 units as Sony? Not to mention I own Sony and tried Beats Pill at apple store, Pill has no bass....
I've had 3 different sony speakers all of them ended up having battery issues. JBL sounds better and with the new Jbl 4 your able to replace the battery. I'm officially a JBL guy.
