So this is the JBL Xtreme 4, and there are some significant upgrades here from both the JBL Xtreme 3 and Xtreme 2… upgrades that are very similar to both the JBL Partybox 320 and Partybox 120. Nonetheless, if you’re think about picking up the JBL Xtreme 4 or upgrading from the JBL Xrteme 3 or even the JBL Xtreme 2… lets see what the JBL Xtreme 4 is all about.
So this is the new JBL Xtreme 3… its essentially a refined version of the JBL Xtreme 2 but there are some key improvements and differences to point out. Some of which I like and some others not so much. But regardless if you’re looking for a portable bluetooth speaker that you can use at home but also take on the go with you… I don’t think you can go wrong with the Xtreme 3.
So the new Sony XB43 has gotten an all new speaker set up which is very similar to the speaker set up that you’ll find on the JBL Xtreme 2 which is a very popular large portable bluetooth speaker and I still very much highly recommend it. Now even though the new XB43 does sound noticeably better than their predecessor… the Sony XB41. Lets see how the XB43 stacks up to the JBL Xtreme 2.
So if you’re looking into getting a new bluetooth speaker, JBL is a very popular brand to pick from because they have a lot of options to choose from for people with different budgets and different needs. So today we’re going to be breaking down JBL’s current portable bluetooth speaker line which consists of a Clip 3, Flip 5, Charge 4, Pulse 4, Xtreme 2, and JBL Boombox 2. So lets see which ones right for you.
So if you’re looking for a large portable bluetooth speaker either so that you can listen to some music during this quarantine or for summer 2020… JBL is a very popular brand to choose from especially cause they have a lot of speakers to choose from. But today we’re going to compare the JBL Xtreme 2 to the JBL Boombox 2. Now obviously since the Boombox 2 is way larger its going to get louder than the Xtreme 2, but there are still some key differences between these two speakers that you should definitely know before you pick either of these speakers up.
The JBL PartyBox 300 is a beast of a speaker… its battery powered and it has a really good looking built in light feature. But when it comes to price, the Partybox 300 retails for the same price as the JBL boombox. Now obviously you’ll might be tempted to go with the Partybox cause its bigger and it has that light feature… but depending on your needs and what you plan on doing with your speaker you’ll might be better off with the Boombox. So lets see which ones right for you
Im a really big fan of JBL’s portable speaker line up… they sound great and you can take them anywhere cause they’re pretty durable and they have long lasting batteries. But a portable speaker means you’re paying extra for that added durability and built in battery. And if you just want a speaker for at home use all you’re really concerned about is sound. So thats where something like the Marshall Stanmore 2 comes in. its a little bigger than the Xtreme 2 but gives the boombox a run its money when it comes to sound quality and bass.
Even though I expected more, for the last few months the JBL Xtreme 2 has been one of my favorite speakers period. Its not too big, it has a decent battery life, I can take it anywhere, and more importantly it sounds really good. And the Xtreme 2 has done a good job of out performing similar speakers that were released after it. But today we’re going to put the Xtreme 2 up against 2 more large portable speakers. Lets see if the Sony XB501G or Marshall Kilburn 2 can finally dethrone the JBL Xtreme 2.
