JAY! This was the exact review I needed! I was going back and forth between party box and the klipsch since Costco is selling the klipsch for $150 a pop rn. The PartyBox has a much fuller sound. The difference is night and day in this review. Gonna pull the trigger on the PartyBox 310 😎
You can tws the gigs and you get two for the same price. Also the sound stage is much different with bass boost off on the gig having used both the sound quality is better on gig imo with bass boost off
I have the gig xl and I did notice the speaker sounds much better if you change the audio quality settings to high on your streaming app or use a hi-res/hi-fi music streaming service like tidal or deezer. For my other bluetooth speakers from JBL, Monster, Harmon Kardon, Bose, and B&O they were less reliant on the music streaming app and audio quality settings to sound good. Wish the Klipsh speaker would connect to an app with eq settings.
Thanks for the video. Is Klipsch GIG XXL Portable Wireless Party Speaker more comparable with JBL Partybox 110 or 310 in terms of impact, power and sound quality? I just bought JBL partybox 310 currently available for a black friday deal price of 399.95, but was mulling over also byuing the Klipsch available for a black friday deal price of $150 at Costco, compare the two and eventually keep the one I like better. I like the 310's powerful sound, deep bass and bright sound profile and intend to use it for indoor and outdoor parties, particularly Karaoke parties. I also lke clear microphone output for karaoke singinng. Though, I think the playback sound output is more biased towards bass and power than an overall balanced sound. From this video, it appears I will still likely prefer the JBL for party purposes as even JBL 110 seems to have more "impactful" sound than the Klipsch. I imagine the difference between 310 and the Klipsch be even more noticeable. I am wondering which one would be better value for money for parties and karaoke singing. I don't intend to use the speaker for daily listening as for that I prefer a more balanced sound , for which I have my bookshelf speakers.Thoughts? 11:16 11:16
Thanks for your quick response. In that case I won't even bother trying the Klipsch as I need the power output and impact of 310 for small to medium size parties including Karaoke singing. If the power output of the Klipsch is comparable to 110, I'll just keep my 310. I took it for a test drive for my first Karaoke party and everyone in the party liked its playback as well as microphone output.
The Klipsch sound all dirty especially at 100% The 110 is by far the better sounding speaker. The gig doesn't get a volume boost in power the 110 does. The Klipsch has no chance.
It's not bad. As I mentioned in a video, it's when you compare it to a JBL speaker that it becomes more noticeable how the JBL is better in all aspects
Jay did you get a chance to try or hear the Hisense -HP100 Ultimate Wireless Outdoor/Indoor Party Speaker, 300W, IPX4 Waterproof,15 Hour Battery, Bluetooth5.0, DJ and Karaoke Mode 4.6⭐️of star on Amazon and only in other languages b I’ve seen it on RU-vid but going up against jbl.
I have seen that available for a while, but have never heard it in person. Don't really have any plans to buy more cheap Chinese speakers for a while. 😄
for me the sound of the klipsh is really better, it doesn't destroy your ears and the song in high pitch, the jbl is certainly much more powerful and clear but it's way too high, it's really not pleasant
Great thing about the Partybox 110 is the app support allows you to change the sound, so if it's too bright for you it can be made to sound warmer. The Klipsch is just okay, not great. The 110 is better in every way to me.
The 110 is a really great speaker with great options and features. When it was under $300 it was a good buy. The Gig XXL is an okay speaker and nothing more than a rebranded cheap-o speaker, not a true Klipsch product. If money is short and/or you aren't very particular about what it sounds like, the Klipsch is a decent budget option. However, i still think the Onn Large Party Speaker gen 2 is better at $150.
I am shopping for a Bluetooth speaker and as of right now, the JBL 110 is $399 versus $139 for the Klipsch. That is a huge difference. I would expect more difference. I hear the sound. I am a Harmon Kardon/Infinity officiando (JBL) and love the clarity but... that said... You are talking $200 difference. that is one-third the cost for the Klipsch.
Die klipsch klingt definitiv schöner und nit so nervig im Hochton wie die jbl. Hatte mal ne boombox die war auch nit schön im Hochton und bass zuviel im Verhältnis
The nice thing about the Partybox 110 is through their app you can adjust bass, treble and mids. Klipsch is just a cheap, rebranded speaker with no app support.
@@de9515 Your point is invalid. I had no treble adjustments made on the 110. If you had watched the video early on you would have known that. Only bass boost 1 enabled on the Partybox 110. Maybe you like a warm sound with no detail or clarity? If it was too bright for you, sorry about that, Jabroni. Next time I will run my videos by you first and we can run the speakers how you like them for videos released on RU-vid.🤪😂
@@JaysStraightUpReviews it will connect via Bluetooth to my TV and they are linkable to a 2nd speaker so if I get 2 I can use them to watch movies. Maybe more like a big sound bar. Not so much surround sound.
This has nothing to do with quality. Klipsch has always had this sound signature. Clear powerful highs. Medium clean crispy bass. Its doing its job. People that prefer that sound profile will not like the muffled unclear highs of the JBL. Although i like klispch sound profile a lot, for big parties and party music jbls are better with that loud muddy mid bass. But every one listens to what they like👌
You apparently didn't get the memo, but this Klipsch Gig XXL isn't a Klipsch designed speaker. It's just a rebranded speaker they slapped their badge on and changed a couple of knobs to gold ones. 😉
@@JaysStraightUpReviews i actually read those reports before the speaker even released. apparently you still didn’t get the memo what was said above, about sound profile. A klipsch will never have loud muddy bass like a jbl no matter what price point klipsch is about powerful highs and crispy mids. I mean the klipsch gig xxl is a $120 dollar speaker, yeah a $400 dollar jbl at 4 times the price better sound louder. But you do you papa(; 😮💨✌️
@OGkush69x dude, Klipsch didn't make this speaker. They just slapped their badge on an existing speaker.. Its not a bad speaker for the current orice, but it was originally $350. No was buying at that price.
@@JaysStraightUpReviews i heard it sounds different. Its either diff internals or tuned differently. Either way thats why i skipped on this speaker because felt klipsch was being lazy. I have old klipsch 6.5 inch bookshelf speakers, klipsch powered subwoofer and the pro medias 2.1 computer speakers that are way ahead of their time👌 excellent sound quality, too bad they have gotten lazy with their new stuff. I have new jbl 310 that is loud mid muddy/boomy bass which is great for house parties where u wanna vibrate the house. But the klipsch always have more clear powerful crisp sound.
Klipsch sounds better and more accurate. Jbl is higher and has a strange tin like echo. Jbl tuned it to non audiophiles whose attention is grabbed by high highs and inaccurate boomy base. Klipsch tuned theirs to be tone accurate. Nice test but you fell for jbls tactics. It is not better and you will get tired of the sound.
FYI, the Gig XXL is just a cheap-o, rebranded speaker, not a Klipsch developed product. You may want to check out your headphones or get a new pair. I'm getting the smell in the air of a JBL hater. 🦨 😆
