Looking for a set of stereo speakers for my laptop. Right now I am confused between Tribit StormBox Micro 2, Skullcandy Kilo, Sony SRS-XB100 and Skullcandy Terrain. Any idea which set is better? All of them are priced around the same, between $40 to $60.
@alanrossreviews Thank you, Alan. There aren't many speaker battle videos on RU-vid that would pitch all four against one another. My laptop speakers are utter trash. Two small stereo speakers will just do the job.
Keeping bizarre you crack me up I haven't watched you in a while I got into watches besides speakers now I went down that rabbit hole. Good to see you again period Rey from New Jersey
It's a lot better than it was 2 weeks ago, but comparing the Xsound Plus with the Maxsound, I still get a sensation of artificial detail versus natural detail, if you know what I mean.
I just bought the xsound plus 2 it sound amazing pair in stereo with my stormbox flow. 2 different speakers with different tuning sounds good in stereo
Definitely an improvement but it sounds like Tribit still has some work to do. I hope they'll continue to fine tune some things to make it an even more compelling option in its price range. Thank you for another great review, Alan! 😁👍👏
the thing is they did the same thing with the flow, maxed the bass to the point of distortion so whoever is tuning their speakers is the one who should be answering questions.
"Hi Alan I love your detailed reviews and was wondering if you could do a comparison video between the Tribit X Sound Plus 2 and the JBL Flip 6. Your insights would be really helpful in deciding which one to get. Thanks for considering it!"
That observation of having to turn up the volume on xsoundplus 2 too much to match the tuning of the maxsound plus has made me prefer the original to the new one
Another killer review from?? THE ALAN ROSS LABS!!!!! Im still jamming my two anker boost upgrade in tws. All a person needs in a small POD!!! Eating bugs!!! Lmfao 😆😆😆, from across the pond 😀😀😀😀
Hi Alan I am from india and your reviews on speaker is factual and deep. Please suggest me one speaker jbl essential 2 vs tribit x sound plus 2 vs tribit stormbox flow or flip 6
@@alanrossreviews If there will be no budget issues which one of them you will choose amongs bose soundlink flex /jbl flip 6 / sony ult field 1 / tribit x sound plus 2
Well, I'm still undecided about this speaker, so I'll ask a question to make my mind once and for all, can you tame the 10 to 13khz peak with the Tribit's EQ ? If yes, I buy it, if not, goodbye Xsound 2 Plus 😂
@@alanrossreviews Holy hell, default mode is insanely bad. Worst speaker I've heard in a damn while 😂 EQing barely works to get rid of that nasty treble, I had to put 9khz and 13khz to -8 lol. I found an EQ that does somewhat work, but I'd say Maxsound Plus is still the superior speaker overall. If the bass wasn't that sloppy, it would have been a decent bass oriented alternative, but we both know how the bass behave on this speaker 😂
idk about the rest but i have been using Jet Audio Plus experimenting with EQ/AM3D Audio Enchancer/Bongiovi DPS & Crystalizer presets instead of Tribit EQ preset to find my own sweet spot sounds for my Tribit speakers. I found it more fluid to my ears 🤔🤔
@@marceau3001 you just have to experiment with it yourself to find your own sweet spot sound with it EQ presets 😁 oh try not to the speaker X-Bass switch on since Jet Audio Plus have X-Bass & X-Wide in it disposal
It's because they set one default eq and everything else gets layered on top of that. The speaker cannot have more than one bass eq. They clearly don't want to retune it from base up.
It would be interesting. I've seen they have a full line of speakers that look very similar to the Marshall's, at least from a form factor and configuration point of view
I had the soundcore boost for a long time.. just decided get the flip 6 for the form factor and travel friendly design. But the sound… its horrible and awful compared to the boost.😢. The treble is way smoother, mids sound way natural and separated from the instruments, and bass is way nicer on the boost. The jbl sounded like the mids and treble are mushed up with a boomy mid bass with no real deep bass.😭
I love the Maxsound Plus. It's the perfect small kitchen speaker. Great sound up to around 50% volume but then the bass rolls off. 50% is neighbour-botheringly loud for my kitchen so not an issue Alan - do you know if the Maxsound Plus will now be discontinued? I'm tempted to buy another one just in case.
Not only doesn’t the XSP2 sound as good as the MSP but it’s also way quieter. At least at 50% volume and below. If I’m starting from 0 volume and the XSP2 is 6 feet away, I have to click 4x before I can hear anything. Only 1 click with the MSP.
Hey Alan, I need a speaker with an AUX in for music production (as a hobby, I would use it with an Elektron Digitakt) and it must not break the bank. I ordered the Soundcore Motion+ since it seems the stereo separation / soundstage is quite good. Do you think it's a good choice or would you recommend another speaker with AUX in instead?
Are you planning on reviewing the Rave Party 2? Ive seen it on your shelf but cant find a video. I'm interested in how it compares to the Boom 2 and Rave Neo 2. Thx!
Probably not as i just work at my own pace and can't cover them all. I have lots of speakers that i never cover. The rave party 2 is the rave neo 2 with an extra woofer but tuning not quite as warm as neo 2 but more powerful. I think i have the measurements on my IG.
Hello Alan Thank you for your excellent reviews. In an easy world I would be buying a Rocksteady Stadium system with 4 satellites and a subwoofer as you recommended in your review. (not that cheap though) But in a complete fantasy world I would even prefer having a pair of motion boom and a pair of motion plus working together: they seem more pleasant and fun to the ear and they are more outdoors indoors moving friendly, finally we are 4 in our family and they could be splitten individually or gathered in the living room , on top of this they are cheaper. Of course I know we don't leave in such a world . Or are we ? You say in your reviews you are using a Samsung Galaxy S10+, have you, by any chance, tried to use the dual audio streaming capability of Samsung phones to stream audio to a TWS paired pair of motion booms and a TWS paired pair of motion pluses at the same time ? Would be marvelous if it would be working ! And we would be leaving in a world of fantasy after all ! Thank you for all those detailed reviews and comparisons. Sorry for the X-Long comment. Deep Bassly yours
Hi I was looking for a small speaker for work, this just might be the one!! On a different note have you or any of your subscribers had any issues with the og motion boom just turning itself on, mine keeps doing it?
I got one. Sounds great for $76. Plenty of bass. And not overpowering like the x500 which I returned. Ironically, my ears are so bad that I can't hear high notes or low notes so I need to push those. Maybe that's what the company thinks that our ears have become destroyed and so they need a v-shape output.
Ok what about with more software updates will that affect the sound of the Tribit speaker? And what about the Tribit Xsound2 compared to the Klipsch Nashville?
@@alanrossreviewsyou’re right. There’re definitely other reasons to decide which is better. So in terms of sound quality,which one would you pick in these two,or any other portable speaker under 100 USD would you recommend ?
@@alanrossreviews and by the way, should the speaker break in? I took it out of the box today and i feel like it has very limited bass, even the motio 300 goes deeper and has more bass.. It that a big difference when it "breaks in"?
@@alanrossreviews well 5 bands is already a nice upgrade from 3 If jbl does the eq well and actually make the bands change the right frequencies, it would be nice for the boombox 3, maybe adding more upper bass would change the sound for good but probably reduce deep bass
Any idea if the current firmware for the Tribit Stormbox Blast improves the overall sound in anyway and if so do you have a upgraded EQ for it? It seems this speaker has been getting a lot of firmware upgrades but I'm not sure if it's worth upgrading.
Hi, can you please clarify the doubt that i have for x sound plus two which is; does it delay when playing real drum app on phone when connected to aux using wire connection?
I've seen some contradicting videos on the two. I just got my hands on the x sound 2 tho. It's a pretty good sounding speaker. Apparently it sounds slightly better than the flow. It's going to be getting more firmware updates that'll make it sound better too is what Tribit claims .
Good stuff from the Tribit and the best stuff from our man Al 🥳 Looking forward to some versus videos, do you reckon Motion 300 is too big to compare XSound 4 to it? I've owned 300 for a while now and after some heavy EQing made it sound quite enjoyable to my ears. Would return it instantly if the default tuning was the only option however.
I've got the maxsound plus v2 for couple of years now (largely influenced by you sir for buying it). with that update, is it worth it to upgrade to xsound plus 2?
Hey alan. I understand that RU-vid compresses the audio. But the audio on your videos sounds 96kbps. I think soundcore might be responsible. Other RU-vid content creators don't have such issues. It's really strange. I think you touched a vital corporate nerve
I don't like what tribit done to this spiker it 100% downgrade compre to original one and thy call xsoud2????? Yes the Bluetooth is v5 ATS 2833 but its a low end spec compare to original 4.3 ATS 2825 the amplifier more power but distortion alot and sound not good is the same amplifier use in tribit flow ACM3108 original one use TPA3118 and glue all over the spiker include passive radiator 😢disappointing keep the original and the upgraded one ...and I so confuse tribit mega and ,max sound plus have high end dual core cup extra memory in the Bluetooth, modules but never get update or tweak...tribit blast have Single core no extra memory very low end Bluetooth modules No DSP ats 2853 but get frimware and tweak 😂
thanks. thats interesting, i really had no idea on what chips and modules have been used. but at the end of the day tuning is make or break for them whatever they use.
@@alanrossreviews yes that Tru but I didn't expect tribit will cut corners the amplifier.... the Bluetooth modules from ATS is RSIC cpu is free architecture compre To ARM use by Qualcomm/CSR so if tribit anker all other use Qualcomm thy need to pay license to ARM make cost more.... I love u review Alan as always ❤
@@alanrossreviews please 🥺 iam in great confusion and ina an urge to buy a speaker but these two speakers confuses... begging you to make a comparison...😭😭😭🥺🙏
@@youtubeuser5424 It’s not quite the same and that’s not necessarily a bad thing. In some ways that’s actually a good thing. What ever weaknesses the original had the new version addresses them. The major issue being the lack of bass above 50 percent. So with that said I’m willing to sacrifice a smidge of balance/clarity if I can get more bass, more volume and get an app in return
@@alanrossreviews but the tribit can sound better if eq it well maybe? It does have deeper bass capability and way way longer battery life and a better connection
