Got Xtreme 3 5days ago its damn beast and i love it! Working in big workshop as a mechanic so its very loud but the Sound quality so nice that i still enjoy music with No problem. And its dust proof just amazing.
I love the sound quality of the Extreme 2 on softer songs that have a lot going on in the background, but I knew the Extreme 3 was going to blow it away on heavier songs before watching this, the Extreme 2's base starts to plateau at %50/%60 volume.
@@larrycruz5868 if you have the money to buy extreme 3 is ok my friend have a extreme 2 and the extreme 3 is better (i upgrade because my sony srs xb41 was too small for a small party)
I've had my Xtreme 2 since release day and Im' happy with it. Yes the battery degraded yes the rings on the side started to fade but after nearly 3 years I'm happy with it and will continue to use it. Well worth my 300 euro's back in 2018
I think this is the best comparison of these two speakers on RUclips. The xtreme 3 definitely sounds cleaner at higher volumes. Thanks for the video 👊🏽
don't know about a lot of other songs, but for electronic/hiphop it's this simple. Xtreme 2 has objectively got more bass, while the frequency response of the xtreme 3 in the bass range is more flat, allowing a deeper sub and clear crisp highs with those huge tweeters
Excellent review!! I liked how you got straight to business giving viewers what they want. I only wish you had one minor detail: adding a decibel reading. Besides that it's excellent. Thank you.
If you don't own one and you are looking to buy, I would say go with xtreme3 but if you already have the xtreme2 doesn't worth the upgrade. Also, the xtreme3 it's slightly more expensive. I had my xtreme2 for three years and I am very happy with it, I will only replace if start failing. Good comparison, Cheers!
Just picked up extreme for only £150 in November 2021. £100 off from original price of £250. Yes I wish I could have went for the extreme 3 after watching this comparison however extreme 2 is better value for money for me. Its my first speaker. What do you think?
My xtreme 2 was with me in finnish army 😁 it was just rolling inside tanks and apc's on different war excercised and i have owned in since release date 😍 the thing has withstandet about 500 sauna's, showers, baths, ice and snow, trips to the lake and jetski rides it can withstand anything! Im not gonna uograde to xtreme 3 untill 2 dies
I don't know why but for me, but extreme 3 is quite disappointing, not what I expected from something with this price. With the software update, the sound does improve with more bass, but at a high volume, the bass is lacking. And I do hope it support hi-res audio
I don’t think anyone should expect too much BASS from these little portable speakers. I did demo everything BestBuy had around this price and the JBL 3 was the clear winner. I’m sure you know if you want the real deal house thumping Bass you need bigger floor standing speakers hooked up to an amp and you ain’t getting that with 50w for a few hundred dollars lol.
Like everything it's subjective. But i bought the xtreme 3 , 2 weeks ago. Wasn't impressed at all with the sound. It's very open and expansive ( which as mentioned it's subjective) some like this sound, others including myself do not. So then luckily my neighbour has the Xtreme 2. Compared the two side by side in the flesh. With various music, classic, rock, pop and rap. Straight away the 'my' ears preferred the 'warmer' sound of the Xtreme 2. So i've just returned my xtreme 3 and will save €75 and grab a Xtreme 2. For my ears the xtreme 2 sounds nicer. P.s I tested both indoors and out. The 2 won both times.
Listening on a Sony Xperia 1 ii through a pair of AKG N60 Bluetooth headphones I could tell the Xtreme 3 was better however tweaking my Dolby Atmos settings I can get them both to sound the same but the Xtreme 3 is slightly louder and has Bluetooth 5.1 and in person you will here slightly more details in the music. I think both sound acceptable and the main difference is that the Xtreme 2 can be had for £150 UK at the moment where as the Xtreme 3 is £279 although have seen £233 on Amazon that's still a massive price difference and I don't personally think it's worth it.
I agree that the extreme 2 sounds a bit muffled at low volume. That's a non starter for me. I don't like muffled sound at all. However its much better playing louder
hello I hesitate between the JBL Xtreme 3 and the JBL Xtreme 2 I am looking for a good sound and especially good deep and incredible bass, what do you recommend?
I've bought another X2 yesterday for €100 to stereo pair with my 2 years old X2... they sound amazing together in stereo pair, and for that price!!! Deals are now to be made!!
Depends on design. these aren't being driven by a 100+ watt sub. They're being driven by small mid range drivers with 50 combined watts, so they have thinner surrounds for higher sensitivity. That longer wave pattern is what is going to give you lower Frequency response. Smaller diamter drivers require deeper movement in and out to produce the longer wave length for low frequencies. Even my boombox 2 has very thin surrounds, but I have had no issues with them breaking and Its seen heavy use since I bought it the day they came out.
The only difference seems to be a bit stronger bass on Xtreme 3 which is nice, the rest is the same. I love my 2 it's great, getting 3 in a couple of days.
Honestly the only thing extreme about the whole extreme line is the price!!! $350-$199 for a 40 watt speaker the extreme 2 and a 50 watt extreme 3. And the kicker is you don't even get that little bit unless it's plugged in.
I'm looking for a good sounding Bluetooth speaker which one has deeper sound the JBL extreme 2 or 3 I can get a extreme 3 at my Walmart I work at for 349$ would this be a good option thanks
You are lucky you found someone (me) who knows what that means. They are different on the inside but the same on the outside, for those who don’t know. Also, the xtreme 2 only comes in PL and GG, and the xtreme 3 only comes in SE? and GG. Neither have a ND or PL variant.
I was going to buy the Huawei sound joy as I had it in the past and it was excellent for its price, but seems to be sold out in places I can buy it today without waiting a day or 2 for delivery. So deciding to buy one of these instead.
Hey man i want u to explain more about connect + as i am thinking about buying xtream 3 but i want to know about party boost and connect + , by that i might not be able to connect more than 1 speaker together ??

@@raymondamoroso2049 Walmart,target, Best Buy, they’re all like $199. I also went on offer up and bought one from a guy for $180. Made sure it was legit too lol but it’s a great speaker 🔊 can hold its bass well with spotify
WOW.....HOPING YOU OF ALL PEOPLE CAN HELP ME.... I have the charge 3 but it's not loud enough for me I'm using it on my electric bike and need something NOTICEABLY LOUDER THAN THE CHARGE 3 with atleast 6 hours on 80-90% volume that's not TOO MUCH bigger than the charge 3 (I know it will be bigger if I want louder sound and good battery life) just not bigger than the jbl xtreme......

That final song at 90% volume highlighted the differences the best. The Xtreme 3 sounds really good and more clear and sparkly

But then both may lack BASS because lower and higher volumes both should contain lots of bass to match the treble.
