I got the Sony XV500 - and the sound quality is great. I only heard the 120 against in the store (against the xv500) and I found the XV500 more clear and natural sounding. To me the XV500 sounded the best of alle partybox speakers they had in the store (even better than Sonys bigger brother xv800) . Just a perfect mix of clearness, openness and warmth and non-harshness. The JBL is definitely significantly louder and harder hitting (if that's what you are looking for), though, especially when running on battery. The xv500 increases volume and bass significantly when plugged in. So yes, as said in the video, max volume on battery is much better with the JBL. JBL also ha swappable battery, which is nice. Sony has battery care mode at leats, which will hopefully prolong the lifespan of the battery I chose the Sony over the JBL because I already have some smaller Sony speakers to pair with. So wíthout that, I might have gone with JBL, though I would need more listening time to the JBL to see if it can match the plesant audio quality of the xv500 in the long run.
To me 120 wins in all aspects. The most important is obviously the sound quality. But also the build quality, software and features are way better on the JBL. I might be heavily biased but I always think JBL is unmatched when it comes to design. There is no other speaker on the market that has such extensive lightshow while remaining fairly compact and still provide better sound quality. Everything is densely packed with no wasted space. I also much prefer physical controls on the JBL over the touch controls. That volume dial is so much nicer to use than having to tap or hold on the Sony.
The JBL PartyBox 120 is almost twice as expensive as comparable Sony models in my country!! Is the extra cost worth it for the JBL? What do you think? 🙏
JBL recently launched their Club 120 in an all-white color.
Really? that would be cool
JBL has Alien technology 😁 Despite having smaller drivers, it still produces way deeper and stronger bass.
Seems impossible doesn't it!
