  • JBL Flip 6 is the best Flip speaker so far from JBL. Here I fully test the Flip 6 for volume and bass, measure its frequency response, look at the EQ available now in the JBL app and compare the Flip 6 to the JBL Flip 5 and 4.

    Alan Ross Reviews Top Picks:
    Pound for pound world champion:
    Soundcore Motion Boom: geni.us/motionboom
    Amazingly deep bass to 40hz for its size and price.
    Still worth a look:
    My former world champ the Soundcore Motion Plus can still offer great clarity.
    geni.us/soundcoremotionplus
    £50 champion:
    Great bass for its size, Soundcore Boost: geni.us/soundcoreboost
    A little bigger but a decent listen for the price BOGASING M4: geni.us/bogasingm4
    Bass Heavy Speakers:
    Harman Kardon Go+ (mid and upper bass heavy but with decent balance): Play geni.us/goplay
    Onyx Studio 6 (warmer than the 7, maybe too bass heavy in balance): geni.us/onyxstudio6
    Hi End Picks
    Minirig mk3 2.2 system: geni.us/minirigmk3
    Great for portable low deep kick: Onyx Studio 6 (more bass than Onyx 7): geni.us/onyxstudio6
    Monitor Like openess and neutrality but lacks deep bass Audio Pro C3: geni.us/audioproc3
    Best Micro Options:
    Bose Soundlink Micro (warm): geni.us/bosesoundlinkmicro
    Tribit Stormbox Micro (clinical): geni.us/tribitstormboxmicro
    Worth a Look:
    W-King T9: geni.us/wkingt9
    The T9 is a reasonably loud and balanced party speaker with a big bright detailed sound.
    Budget Loud Boombox: no clear winner but my pick for fun outside listen would be:
    W-King X10-1 for form factor and loudness geni.us/wkingx10
    W-King D9 for bass with a little smoother signature: geni.us/wkingd9
    Travel Speakers:
    Marshall Stockwell 2: geni.us/stockwell2
    offers a decent immersive sound with full and tight bass. Beware though it does go very loud
    JBL Charge 5: geni.us/jblcharge5
    Only mono but has a very clear and dynamic sound at low volumes and can go reasonably loud but will become a little screechy over 80%.
    Denon 250bt, no longer made but the standard for size/quality ratio for travel (battery drain issues)
    JBL Flip 6: for low to moderate volumes offer decent bass with a knockable form factor.
    Alan Ross Reviews, probably the best reviews in the universe :)

    Thanks Alan for your review, your frequency response measurement helped me adjust the sound. I use the VLC Player for Android to play music with a 10-band equalizer and have set the 2k and 4k controls to -2 db, which removes the little harshness of my Flip 6 GG Version that bothers me in some songs.
    And now in my opinion it flips really really great :) Thank you Alan ...

    Great review, thank you. I’m kind of apprehensive about the harshness at higher volumes because my woman ears are sensitive to those frequencies. BUT, I like the improved mid and lower bass and that it has Party Boost since I already have a Flip 5 to pair it with. This video helped me decide I’m going ahead with the purchase thank you

    • @alanrossreviews

    You and Oluv both agree that the flip 6 isn't a game changer but I think he's favoring it over the sonos roam now. He was having some technical difficulties with his flip 6 when switching between the other comparison speakers in his video, though. It started making a crackling sound and he had to shut down the jbl app and repair it several times. Awesome review, as always, Alan! Looking forward to more comparisons! 😁👍👏

    • @alanrossreviews
      @alanrossreviews  2 года назад +1

      what version has he got though? we need to know that. even the boost has more bass but the flip 6 beats it for a sharp lean sound but personally i prefer a warmer sound as we push the flip 6.

    • @_-Z-
      @_-Z- 2 года назад +2

      I just asked him on his patreon. If he replies I'll let you know. I've always disliked how much variation there can be between different versions of the same JBL speaker. It just adds more confusion to the reviews and makes it more difficult to make an informed decision if you are considering buying one. I'm sure there are plenty of other lesser known companies that do it incognito but JBL is notorious for it. There's always going to be some variation one unit to another but when the components are completely different that's taking it to another (imho unnecessary) level. Especially considering the price tag that goes with JBL I would expect more consistency. Sorry for the rambling rant, Alan. It's just a sore point for me.

    I went to buy a soundcore motion boom and could only find the soundcore select plus which looks exactly the same but has lights. I've heard the bass on this newer version is weaker and that there's no titanium drivers. At the same price point, is this newer speaker inferior to it's predecessor, and am i just paying for the lights? I love your reviews and comparisons, but i couldn't find one on the soundcore select plus. Do you have one and if not I'd really appreciate a comparison of the two because i can't find a straight answer. Anyways, sorry this is so long and even if you don't do a video on them, could you at least give me a little insight or personal recommendation please? (I don't have enough money to waste trying to figure it out). Thanks, Peace.

    • @alanrossreviews

    Great, detailed and unbiased review.
    Still I will not buy Flip 6 because I bought my Flip 5 in April this year with great discount at 70 USD in local currency (a new one). The new JBL Flip 6 is already in local online store at 140 USD. Yes, there is better bass and volume but it is not two times better. The difference is not very big and IMHO can not justify such huge difference in price.

      totally except the boost has a warmer sound so has that tweeter meant its more lean than full as you raise the volumes? i keep telling people there is more to getting better highsthan just adding a tweeter with these cheap speakers. high end speakers spend a fortune on just the crossover to get it right let alone better quality tweeters. cheap tweeters with cheap crossovers does not translate into better highs. 🙄

    Well the Flip 6 did better as expected but I am disappointed another reviewer said the Flip 6 had around the same bass as the Charge 4(clearly not)I'm wondering how will it do against the Motion boost v2 and why not against the other Charge speakers as well. Im still going to check it out for content

    • @alanrossreviews
      @alanrossreviews  2 года назад +4

      It depends on volume and if you are talking all bass or deep bass. At low volumes its quite mid bass heavy so you could say it can match the charge 4 for overall bass at low volume.

    I have the JBL Flip 4 and decided not to purchase the Flip 5 but felt extremely excited that this could be my next upgrade! One key attribute the JBL Flip 4 has is its ability to produce sound not heard at levels from any other speaker its size! The pure clarity and depth were unmatched. Im pumped to hear the JBL Flip 6! I work with speakers for fun, fixing, installing and sometimes reselling them on the internet:
    In my opinion, the anatomy of the JBL Flip 6 gives this speaker a reason to upgrade- single handedly! With the new driver working in combination with the single tweeter this speaker will offer a sound with true chest resonating bass and crisp highs, think of it like the Flip Version of the JBL Xtreme ahaha.
    The one slight dilema when deciding to whether or not to upgrade from the JBL Flip 4 to the Flip 6 is the top factor: "How much louder is it?" We all know thats probably the first question we ask. If youre going to spend money for a small speaker, you would expect it to be louder right? Well I think JBL physically cant get much louder, speakers this size already do a good job getting loud and reproducing sound with ridiculous depth and clairty. From now on, Speaker upgrades will be made mostly internally and based on sound depth rather than loudness.
    At the same time, wtf $129 is a definite kick in the nuts, and with lots of people owning Flip 4's they arent worth much on the internet for resale. Depening on your outlook, you may be having a difficult time making a decision whether or not to upgrade.
    The reason I will be preordering this speaker comes down to these two resons:
    1. It is the future for all JBL Speakers.
    2. Its better than the JBL Flip 4 is just about every aspect anyways.
    I just graduated college and I cannot explain how freaking awesome it was to hangout and party with people that also had the same speaker as I do. Pairing up speakers with your friends is honeslty a life changing feeling, basically sex for anyone wondering! With everything moving from Connect+ to Partyboost it is reassuring to know that his speaker will be extremely versatile and will have you connecting with all JBL speakers for years to come. Also, just think about it, better bluetooth, better battery, fully waterproof, and it looks sexy! Its like buying the new iPhone after selling the same model of phone for four years!
    I cannot wait to hear this bad boy in person and move into the newschool JBL gang!
    I hope this helps you find some transparency with my decision making and aid in making yours!

      *One key attribute the JBL Flip 4 has is its ability to produce sound not heard at levels from any other speaker its size!:*
      Please define what you mean by levels. The flip 4 has a lack of bass compared to say the Soundcore boom.
      *The pure clarity and depth were unmatched:*
      well we must disagree on this. But that’s audio, subjective and in the eye of the beholder.
      *chest resonating bass and crisp highs on flip 6:*
      erm, I must strongly disagree again.
      *How much louder is it:*
      define louder, measured how?
      *I think JBL physically cant get much louder, speakers this size already do a good job getting loud and reproducing sound with ridiculous depth and clarity:*
      Hoffman’s Law says you can have any 2 of 3. Bass Extension, Efficiency, Small Enclosure. If small enclosure is fixed then you need better efficiency. Have we reached the limits of efficiency? No its improving all the time. Smaller more powerful amps aligned with more efficient drivers capable of increased excursion and the use of dsp means the limits have not been reached. The question what budget can a company throw at the design and still make a profit.
      *based on sound depth rather than loudness:*
      you realise you can easily go louder in shear peak terms by doing the opposite right? Cutting all the bass and mids and only pushing the highs.
      *With everything moving from Connect+ to Partyboost it is reassuring to know that his speaker will be extremely versatile and will have you connecting with all JBL speakers for years to come.:*
      Its almost as though you are part of the JBL marketing team huh?

    I've been told that if you connect the Flip 6 to your player, then turn on the Flip 5 and let that connect, then hit Partyboost on the app, then hit the 'tap to connect to Flip 5' tab at the bottom of the app, both speakers are now connected in stereo.
    If Alan or anybody who has both could try this, I'd be very interested in the result.

    But...when I bought my Flip 5, the shop was selling their remaining stock of Flip 4 at 50% off.

      Motion + has a bigger sound stage with a more airy sound due to the 12 kHz boost. It definitely outclasses the Flip 6 in producing the higher range audio frequencies. I can tell it edges it in terms of bass too as the Flip 6 has bass limiting after 60%. Motion + on the other hand has good bass till 80% volume depending on how you EQ it.
