I've had neighbours complaining about my 710 volume. That thing is a beast. The Ultimate costs double the 710. Rather I get two 710s for the price of 1 Ultimate.
I got two 710's in 2022 thanks to your review of that speaker. I'm massively geeking out on (and gawking 😀) this new Ulimate, but your video review here is helpful in having me continue to feel confident in my pair of 710s. They do massively kick ass! Thanks for your great videos with detailed breakdown of these speakers! 💪👊
@@calyxl43 Just based on the specs I would have to agree. Each 710 is 800 watts bringing it to a total of 1600 Watts compared to the 1100 Watts of one ultimate. The frequency response at the low end is only a difference of 5 Hertz with the 710 coming in at 35 Hertz and the new ultimate coming in at 30 Hertz. From experience, just one of my 710s rattles the walls.
@@EngagedWellBeingYou can't compare power like that. Ultimate is still gonna be louder with 1100W of power than double 710 with combined 1600W. Plus the Ultimate has better audio quality overall. Dual 710 wins in terms of stereo sound separation though so it's still a better investment than single Ultimate I'd say.
from hearing the sound comparison on a good speaker system, i can say that the ultimate has much better mids (like the 310s mids) and sounds brighter and clearer, the bass honestly isn't too much more, id say that two 710s have more bass than a single ultimate.
i know he said that in the video after, but honestly the partybox 1000 has terrible mids yet having 7" mid drivers??? i sold my pb1000 for a pb710 because the 710 has better mids but still not as good as a pbUltimate, i connected my partybox 710 to TWO 310s, and that gave it the really clear mids it needed.
I feel that the absence of XLR is a good thing for JBL in this series of speakers. They do have a pro division that addresses the needs for dj applications, therefore making the ultimate and ultimate speaker for HOME use. Many people have large rooms and backyards that can accommodate the amount of sound it produces. Obviously, 2 PB 710 will sound louder against one Ultimate, but please compare it to 2 PB Ultimate 😂. Out of this world... I defend this speaker because JBL is giving you a choice to pick depending on your need.
Very interesting point. They do have a professional line that is better suited for DJs. I use my party boxes for events, but it is very streamlined connected to my laptop with no need for a DJ or mixer. I'm not a DJ so I just want some really kick ass sound.
If you have the money, choose the Ultimate. Otherwise, buy two 710s. The 1000 is a relic. There is no app support and the sound quality is so boomy that it is difficult to listen to for a long time. It is old, so the 4.2v water resistance and durability are not very good.
Please compare two partybox 710 synced together vs one partybox ultimate. No one has done that on RU-vid. I think the two synced together will blow out the one partybox ultimate and you still pay less,
The 710 is more than enough, you're not gonna be playing more than 50% volume and the bass is just so good, but if you have money to spend then just go with 2 710s. The ultimate is just not worth the given price.
@@jonathanhartery6004 Id rather go with the 710 because it has more functions and it’s relatively a newer model. But I think the 1000 sounds a little bit louder.
I have 2x 710 but I still want the Ultimate to daisy chain them for outdoors. For indoors however, even single 710 is more than enough, I never play mine over 50-60% volume indoors.
Laughing in blasting 21" subs, not having enough. Unless you actually fear, nervously looking what might crack and fall on your head, or have trouble breathing, then you have no bass to speak of. 😂🤭
I have the 710 and i cant decide if i want the ultimate still 😂😂. Part of me wants to order another 710 and save the extra 1000 bucks, but the ultimate has the dual subs.
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking it's really between 3 options, I had already ordered the ultimate on preorder but I went on vacation this week and they delayed the shipping so I canceled so they wouldn't leave the ultimate on my porch for over a week. Option 1: Repurchase ultimate and daisy chain to my 710 Option 2: second 710 for stereo and save money Option 3: 2 partybox 1000 for the same price as ultimate.
@shadow80151 well 2 1000's will definitely have more bass but that's an old speaker without an app. Can't you keep the ultimate for few days to test it out and if you don't like it take your money back.
Awesome Review Gymcaddy as always 🔥🔥🔥, Now, I can’t decide which one to buy. In my country Price of PB ultimate is almost same with the price of 2 710 . Ultimate is P60,999 and 710 is P30,999, gonna use it mostly in party events.
Tengo 2 710 y un ultimate y he echo la pueba de un solo 710 y el ultimate y algo que me sorprende es el bajo profundo del 710 que es mejor no se si alguien mas lo nota pero es algo que me deja con la boca abierta
Just received a pair of 710’s today, keeping things realistic each speaker has a pair of 8 inch woofers and 2.75 inch tweeters. With the equalizer in the app and the right songs you can really get the base thumpin’ hard enough to feel it in your chest and the floor if you’re standing close .. that being said I tried it with a variety of music genres and (keep in mind I’m being really nit picky for peoples high expectations) the only thing I found it lacking was some some clarity in regards to instrument separation in the mids/highs in some songs. Now to be fair i haven’t played enough with the speakers positioning and acoustic environment but these speakers feel geared more toward the aspect of driving bass than beautiful clean separation if you're ears lean more toward the audiophile side you may notice the occasional muddying of violins or other instrumentals in the mix. But let’s keep this in perspective they sound great, some songs have great separation and you aren’t just buying component speakers here it’s an all in one package that seamlessly pairs and plays together wirelessly with some cool features, you just plug the damn things in and start rippin’ from a phone, super simple and convenient. I may get some 310’s or something to daisy chain to add some fill in for some of those instrumentals I’m being picky about. If anyone has experience doing this or suggestions let me know. They are great speakers I’m not regretting them at all.
That’s a good point, you know what I didn’t realize … none of the PartyBox speakers seem to support FLAC, they only support mp3, wma, and wav files formats via their usb port according to their literature 🤔 kinda sucks they don’t support FLAC or ALAC. I was playing off Apple Music that uses ALAC so my only real option for lossless would be wav files …. Hmmm 🤔
Ultimate is bigger much bigger. I'm glad they put a handle on the bottom because having two handles is huge whereas the party box 710 only has one handle. I really like the 710 I'm going to stick with it.
Two ultimates do pair up via Bluetooth and not wifi. The wifi is for direct streaming. I confirmed this with JBL directly before I purchased my second one and have since tested this to be true.
@mhel-lhontv9217 yes, they connect with each other via Bluetooth. The wifi is for streaming at home of you choose to use it. You can stream via Bluetooth of wifi at home. I have used these outside and away from any wifi signal and they work perfectly.
This is simply untrue. 710 has 118dB max loudness compared to 124dB of the Ultimate. Double 710 have about 121 dB so still way lower than the Ultimate. Also there's outdoor tests of double 710 vs the Ultimate and the Ultimate is the clear winner.
Jbl 710 da woofer var Jbl ultimate de subwoofeer var o yuzden ultimate de mid hoparlörleri de ek olarak var sebebi bu, Ama yinede 710 ultimate ile mücadele edebilen bir cihaz
Now this is a good comparison when talking the 710 and Ultimate. Really, to me, the Ultimate is what the 1000 should've been. Makes no sense to go with the 1000 with the Ultimate doing what its doing. 710 for me though, because of where i live. But, with block parties, im snagging that Ultimate.
if house use, 710 is more than enough, even if u have a business that needs a speaker still 710 is enough. and found out playin 1 jbl ultimate outdoor parties seems not enough to me, I would rather choose and buy a good set up if thats the case. 710 bass is great ultimate bass is AMAZING. at the end of the day you pay, you choose.
@@RaneKunLovesNightcore Exactly. I will probably get the Ultimate eventually once it's on sale or something. As it currently stands I don't think it's worth the money.
Listen to this: I own a Partybox 300. When I place it in one corner of my room and then sit in the opposite corner, I can feel the bass heavily in my chest. Now, I can’t begin to imagine how it would feel if I placed a Partybox Ultimate there instead.
A buddy have a JBL Partybox 100, I just bought a JBL Partybox 710. We placed both in front of us on a stonewall, and came to the conclusion: The 100 ist absolutely enough. Sounds clear and well balanced even at low volumes, can punch if needed.
I had the 710, but I wasn't fond of its mids and treble. I'm currently using a Samsung mx st50b, and I much prefer its sound quality. The clarity seems better.
The JBL1000 is still more than enough for me! i dont need that light show but i am sure the ultimate sounds nice but the bass is probably not a nice as the down firing subwoofer the jbl1000 has.
@@iSoul33 i gotta hear it in person. i just figured the down firing sub would shake more vs it being on the front. i am sure 2 10s sound tighter in bass vs a 12 inch.
@@Bluntedco. Yoo I just copped the Ultimate on Amazon. It's got a nice discount for black friday! I recommend getting the Amazon credit card for no interest payments for 12 months. I'm about to daisy chain it with my pair of 310s 🔊🔊🔊
@@aayegatomodihi i have 2 partybox ultimate. you can hear a little plastic sound (tick) when you press on the sides. but i don't know what you mean with old wood door
If one day you bother to compare the 710 and the Ultimate to the 1000 you will be surprised how bad their mids are. The 1000 is the only large JBL speaker with well balanced sound. Too bad it doesn’t have any lossless audio support (AirPlay/Chromecast)…
@@jonathanhartery6004 the 710 is not louder, but it is newer and does sound better. Hard to listen to those who love the one they have & have never owned them both
@@jonathanhartery6004 it's true the 710 is not louder and does not hav better bass, but it sound better, that's the only oppside hven you gi for sound
Two 710’s can’t beat one ultimate. The 710 from videos available using a SPL meter at one meter distance the 710 gets to 107.4 DB and the ultimate gets 110.8db . If you know anything about how decibels works then you will know that from 105db to 106db you need nearly double the power . There is an equation that you can look up on google. Long story short you will need 5 and a half x 710’s to get to the sound pressure of the ultimate. Drop the 🎤. I’m a professional automotive sound installer and one 12 inch sub compared to 2 x 12 inch subs you only gain between 1-2.5 db . With double the power . I’m a huge fan of JBJ speakers and the ultimate punches way more than my 2x 710’s . Hands down. Save up your cash and get one ultimate. Thank me later 👍
I have 2 710... Wel had 1 is stolen.. I can guarantee it's more than enough for pretty big party's Still no fast charge No USB c And with such a big speaker no XLR.. what a shame No custom EQ Still the lame buttons with the effects... Such a missed chance
