    Big upgrade over the charge 4 in my opinion, i will probably sell my 4 and get a 5. The bass no longer distorts the mids and treble. That Charge 3 is really holding it's own though!

      @grandtheftgameryt 2 года назад +2

      That’s kind of the trend I have also noticed with the JBL speakers. The flip 4 still holds ground with its stereo sound, the flip 5 is pretty dated with its single driver and the flip 6 is great too with its double driver setup. The charge is the same story. I personally hated the single driver and no tweeter, relying on all the frequency range to come from one relatively small driver.

I did that by using an unofficial app called ConnectPlus from @andrew7985. Both .apk file and firmware files (v5.4 and v7.3) are still available on GitHub. I read the flashing process is a bit risky, but I tried it anyway and it worked just fine for me.

    Great review, thank you! I have the three from 2016 and loved it for years but need to replace as developed a rattle. Watched loads of reviews but should have watched this first... So JBL increase the price but take away aux in, speaker phone, stereo and a bloody power brick, increase the logo and hype the price?? I bought the 5 and the sound is richer somehow and the low bass is lush but now thinking I need to return and get the motion +? One of my issues with the motion plus is that it looks fragile compared to the JBL? I have two young kids and the speaker is bound to get knocked around... Do you think the motion + can hack it?

    Sorry for Offtopic, but can you do a comparison of motion+ vs xb33? Or if not, what is your favourit of these two?

    • @alanrossreviews
      @alanrossreviews  3 года назад +1

      could be next vid, xb33 vs c5 vs m+, since listening to the motion boom and being used to deep bass the lack of bass in the m+ is more of an issue to me now. you do get bass with the xb33, but its much smoother and slightly less detailed, so still deciding 😁

  • @-MarkWinston-
    @-MarkWinston- 3 года назад +3

    The Charge 5 totally reminds me of the Xtreme 3's sound signature. Havent A-B'ed both charts side by side but totally sounds very similiar. Past generation JBLs usually rolled off earlier in the higher spectrum around 18khz, they seem to be fixing this problem with all the new ones. Sometimes it works, like the PB300 vs 310, sometimes it doesnt, as we can see here. Guess it works better with bigger and not smaller speakers. Also, deeper bass is always a welcomed addition! Another great one Alan!!!

So, Charge 5 vs 2 x flip 5's, same wattage, similar price with good timing, but how does the sound compare given you can widen the sound stage with 2 smaller speakers? I've gotta im actually really impressed with the flips paired in stereo and 2 x boomboxes is just comically bassy when they're positioned just right.

    Awesome review. I am now waiting for my 2'nd motion boom, I am really curius how they sounds in stereo. I have 2 Sony xb40 that i use as go to speakers for partys around the camp fire, as they are desent sounding and pak some punch, and they are pretty compact so plenty of room for lager in the backpack. So now I just have to see if the bigger bass and clearer sound of the "boom" is worth sacrifise some lager and bier for, as they are kind of bulkier with the handle and the bigger body, time will tell 😜

    Waiting for Motion plus (Flat EQ mode, Bass-up mode) vs Charge 5 vs xtreme 3 comparison

    • @emdkh
      @emdkh 3 года назад +1

      Bass-up mode on the motion plus is terrible. It's hurting ones ears. Go with a decent custom setting, it will have much better quality bass and a much more enjoyable frequency response. Check Alan's settings, or check the custom settings of oluv. These make the motion+ shine like never before. It's amazing! Just never press that bass up button ever again - you'll need the app to set it back to custom.

    I agree that it sounds as if JBL finally fixed the Charge 3 by creating and bass enhancing the Charge 5. JBL should be careful in what they charge for their speakers. A couple of years ago I had sold my Charge 3 about a year later I picked up a Soundcore Motion+. If one is only comparing the sound quality, in my opinion the Motion+ easily outshines the Charge 5 and gets much louder for a $100 price tag. Thanks for this wonderful review 👍

      there is always a delay, the question is how much delay. not noticing delay is not the same having no delay. i always stress results vary depending on platform and devices as bluetooth latency is very much about the chain rather than just the speaker. you see no delay i see lots of delay, who is representative?

  • @emdkh
    @emdkh 3 года назад

    Hey Alan! Thanks for the review, well done as always! Question: what I have realized with all other and older JBL Speakers that I could get a hold on is: if you listen to them off-axis - on the sides of the speakers - (eg on a 45 degree angle left) they lose quality massively, much more and quicker than other speakers. They become really unbalanced and muddy.
    What's your experience with the new charge? I mean, if your listening with a group of people, most people can't listen to it facing it straight in front of them.
    So the sound from an angle is quite important for these speakers and that has been my biggest complain about the JBLs, apart from the missing detail, because on an angle they just sounded horrible, whereas straight from the front they were... OKish.

    • @alanrossreviews
      @alanrossreviews  3 года назад +1

      compared the charge 5 to the motion boom and altough the boom gets sometimes a bit louder with a nicer deeper stereo sound the off-axis listening is indeed better with the charge 5 i think due to the tweeter wich also has a special wave form to spread the highs a lil more

    I really love your videos and bought a sony srs xb 43 after watching your reviews. I watch your videos almost daily even if I'm not looking to buy anything.
    But i don't understand when you use terms like upper bass, deep bass, lower bass, punchy bass etc. RUclips and even google isn't helping either. So can anyone explain these terms to me? Because all I've found are videos explaining what frequencies bass, mids and treble belong to, but noting about upper bass, lower bass, deep bass etc.

    • @alanrossreviews
      @alanrossreviews  3 года назад +1

      In my videos i consider upper bass 100-200 hz, mid bass 65-100 hz and deep bass 30-65 hz. I dont measure below 30hz for these type of speakers normally because for most below that is so rolled off its just noise. Consider subwoofers are normally used at around 80hz and below. Kick drums dont go below 40hz.
