It’s a passive radiator. It’s nothing more than a cone and surround. The only reason it moves is due to the air pressure changes inside the speaker enclosure when the actual drivers move.
And how is it xd i had mine for a long time then the charging port gave out sold it to a friend who didnt mind charging it slowly and got my self a xtreme 3 its great
@EverythingBikes it will also get damaged or break some day if you keep doing lfm so if you want to flex your bass i suggest only do in 1 time every week in 100% volume but dont push the pr or it will get damaged fast
That is not a true mode, it is a debugging mode that is used to find problems with the speaker. The reason why it acts like that is because is sends square waves instead of normal sine waves.
Me: looks to his JBL boombox Boombox: no pls I have a family with my 2 babies I don't wanna die Me: don't be scared After the song: hey where is our dad the 2 kids name: JBL charge 5 JBL flip5 where is our dad? Me: in the repair shop
The only thing JBL has going for it is brand. That "iconic" sound signature you get with a lot of bass is only because of digital signal processing and equalizer settings that are baked into the speaker's firmware and cannot be changed. I still don't understand why people do this to their speakers either. You're just shortening the life of the drivers by doing stupid shit like this. I don't find that very appealing
Le Meme It’s cos they have more money than sense! I am listening music of all genres since the early 70s and still going to festivals and concerts and find it amusing how twenty somethings will immerse themselves in front of bass bins believing they will “feel” the music more than ever! Like you said, they are just damaging their “equipment”. In this case, their hearing. And by the time they get to my late 50s, they will have impaired hearing which cannot appreciate even the dumb overloaded bass that JBL are focusing on to sell their speakers to young people. People need to realize that loud and bass orientated is a gimmick. I’ve been there, and done that! But I can still hear and feel the bass without killing my eardrums. JBL know exactly what they are doing where marketing a speaker is concerned.
@@richmck007 exactly. Even low frequencies, If exposed to them regularly and at a high enough volume level, WILL damage your hearing. Considering we have new haptic technology like the subpac that can actually let you physically FEEL the beat of your music through your body, it's a much more enjoyable and safer way to enjoy the bass frequencies in music than standing right by a subwoofer cabinet at a concert for example and getting permanent hearing damage. Yes, the subpac is quite expensive at around $400, but it's essentially what you would be paying for a JBL boombox. Personally, I would take the subpac any day over the alternative.
Le Meme There’s guys that do a sport called decibel drag racing where they have numerous subwoofers being ran off of thousands of watts of amplifier power. Yet they hear without issues. Bass doesn’t damage your hearing as much as high frequencies do. Also, haptic feedback is not beating the experience a subwoofer can provide. If that’s the case, bass shakers would be more widely used by everyone.
@@infiniteblaz3416 I agree that haptic feedback isn't the exact same experience as having a sub cabinet in front of you, but I honestly think that it can add even more depth and enjoyment to your music if used in conjunction with a decent set of speakers or headphones. Also, I was not aware of a sport called decibel drag racing, it sounds interesting. (pardon the pun) :)
@@Madoarecandfacpipi It's their money, they can do whatever they want, JBL doesn't really care what they do to the speakers only removing LFM on newer models, and through software updates
@@LexonBlackzz yes i know what are you talking about and that is their money i just don't understand why some people are buying a product and then upload a video where they destroy it
@@ValenDRV LFM mode has no bass limit, sounds like you don't know a shit, and it's not even called LFM mode lmao people just started calling it that lol.
I have my Charge 4 on LFM max volume, and the passive radiators don't move anywhere near that much. They actually move more when I turn off LFM. Why is this? I haven't modified the speaker in any way.
Lfm is actually just turning off the equaliser and bass limiter. When you turn it off, the bass isn't boosted anymore, but it's also not limited around 60% volume, so it's quiet at low volumes, but super loud at max volume.
Those are passive radiators thats supposed to be bouncing depending on which speaker and the Hz of the speaker, and i know that that is def not normal for a speaker with like 50 hz [herts]
