Love mine! Holding out for the 4.0 sub before I buy one: Level mixing is essential. The Marshall sounds like it has an excess of upper mids, and really doesn't have the clarity. 🤘
Totally agree! The volume knob helps a lot but a wireless sub would make this a home run. The Marshall is kind of a mess in the midrange. Sometimes it sounds ok but a lot of the time vocals are completely lost and phase-y. At low volumes, they sound baser but as soon as you turn up the volume, they are a mess. You can hear how wonky it sounds in the recording and it's a very good bluetooth speaker compared to most.
@todd.parker I've tried the same volume knob but doesn't really have any control ,unless turned down to a quarter? Anything past this ,just goes up to max bass . Obviously using gain 2 .
Just got a pair of brand new 4’s delivered this morning to ‘upgrade’ from my 3’s? They’re going back on Monday. Something NOBODY is mentioning here is the signal to noise ratio. THEY HISS LIKE CRAZY AT LOW VOLUME!?!? My 3’s are silent at no/low volume, these are annoying AF. I thought I’d got a dud so opened the other speaker to test and they’re both exactly the same. Not happy as I’d waited months to get these and nobody mentioned it in any online tests. I’ve used only Minirigs since 2014 and this is a big shock? What the hell are they thinking??
I highly recommend a 3d printed portable stand /case if you have a 2.1 set up….got mine off eBay here in U.K…just get some shorter leads for connecting them and just tidy everything at the back….just got the old minirig 2 & 3 at the minute but will probably update to 4 too and when new sub comes out.
I have had the minirig 3 with the sub 3 for about 4 years. I have always had significant issues with stereo pairing. When they stay together with no interference they are impressive as can be for the size.(the constant cut outs even with all other devices, BT and apps closed/ off does suck.) Overall, I do love the minirig 3; great battery, sound and powerful! but since you mentioned slight cut outs still on the 4s I don’t know if it’s worth the jump. My HomePods (although not as dynamic sonically) never cut out. Wonderful video!
In my experience, the stereo pairing with the 4's is miles better. The few drop-offs I've experienced have been from them being too far apart. Once they are stereo paired, they stay paired for the listening session. They are supposed to re-pair automatically but that is pretty mixed but it's really easy to press a button on each and get them working again. The 3's are a total nightmare with steroids pairing, not worth it imo

I bought the sub volume controller, same as yours. And there doesn't seem to be much control on it,unless turned very low ,then its full bass again after a quarter of a turn ,50% just seems like max bass on gain 2. Tried swappping diifferent gain outputs but mo difference.
The frequency graph shows its upper based heavy like a lot of these Bluetooth speakers. I wouldn't call that neutral at all. You really need a tweeter like in the sound core or tribbit. I just don't understand what they're doing here at all.
I debated doing max SPL tests but honestly at full blast they don’t sound that great so I wasn’t sure if it was worth comparing. These get plenty loud, over 90db at 1 meter but without measuring distortion it’s a tricky figure. The 4’s have a larger amp which should give them 1-2db more output
I wish they could make it automatically turn on both minirig 4 and a subwoofer when connected if you tturn on the minirig 4 . And also hope they change the freq response to 20hz to 20khz .
Awesome review! I been on minirig since 1, so been through every upgrade and version 😅 Have they removed the volume control for the output on the master and 5 band eq in the new app?
I want to know which is better, a pair of minirig4 speakers or a minirig4+sub3 speaker? Mainly for outdoor camping, looking forward to your reply! Thanks
Yeah, the Marshall sounded like a mess compared to the Minirigs and it’s actually a decent (and expensive) speaker. The difference between the 3’s and 4’s is more subtle but the better midrange and less forward highs really sounds quite a bit better
Im lucky enough to live near their workshop. I bought the 4 with one sub to begin with. My music genres aren't really going to benefit 2 minirig 4's to begin with. But since then , now have to minirig 4's and 2 subs . 1 sub only plays the bass from one channel. Like you said line2 can be a bit too much ,but a lot depends on what you listen too, I guess. Great review 👍
I have 2 x3s and a sub. Amd I would agree with everything you said. The connection problems i found very disappointing given my investment. And i had lead issues also (with charging cables ) all 3 Failed me. I really wish to support this excellent, Bristol based company but unless they give me a good trade in price im not folking out £150 squid . Sadly as it does sound brighter and the lead set up is better for sure. I will probably try Sony....oh and the case ripped with no effort on my part, it sort of just came apart within a couple of weeks)
Вы используете в приложении Minirig функцию Tilt EQ? Она усиливает верхние частоты или их понижает в зависимости от положения колонки. Хотелось бы, чтобы вы об этом рассказали.
Are you sure you got the original Stockwell 2? I am surprised how bad it sounds. I am asking because I've owned it and I liked it a lot, but there are many fake copies that are hard to distinguish looks wise. Where did you get that Marshall from? Awesome video. Thanks so much!
Ha, yes it’s an original I bought from Best Buy. The Stockwell sounds pretty good at low levels but when you turn it up it gets really messy and distorted. I calibrated it each speaker to be the same 75dB with pink noise which would peak over 80dB with those test tracks (around 60-70% level) and at that SPL they sound really poor. I find the mids sound hollow and phase-y on the Marshall at all levels
Hey! Yes, I have an original version A1 but didn't include it this time because mine don't seem to be working properly anymore. It sounded good a low volumes but bass got very distorted and flabby when turned up. I found the battery life to be super short and the controls on the edge hard to use. It's a cool design and I love B&O but the Minirigs sound much better imo
I find the 4 way more practical with usbc, and the stereo connection to be way better, and to be fair while they've dropped a fair bit of bass, that's not much of an issue for me, since I mainly used my minirig 3's in high gain to reduce the bass. Admittedly i'm yet to own a 4 yet, bought one for my partner, since she wanted a 3 for a while. But it just doesn't seem like enough of an upgrade for me even though they do sound better, i'll have to wait for my 3's to die first ( saying that the power button on one of them has started to flake out after about 5 and a half years).
Cool in theory but im not spending 360€ on speakers and then 120€ for stands. Im in search for semi portable speakers at home for my bed but can't find something I can be happy with.
@todd.parker - I’m still not convinced the 4’s sound better than the MRBT2’s The issue I had with the 3’s is that they were clinical, precise, cold. …and the 4’s I imagine still sound the same. The DSP ruins the sound. Most consumers don’t need precision and clarity …we want warmth, saturation, fullness. The MRBT2’s still sound the best the way they roll off the highs at 16, kHz. I know if I buy these I’ll be sending them straight back. @everyone- do we have any MRBT2 fans here? Anyone agree or disagree with me ?
I don't have the 2nd generation to compare so I can't weigh in on this one. What I can say is they are going for a neutral sound profile. If I bring the highs down one notch in the app and have them at ear level, they are voiced very similarly to my Genelec 8030 studio monitors. I do wish the loudness DSP would bring up the bass and treble a bit more eat lower levels but I'm very happy with the goal of neutrality. To me the 3's are a bit too bright and there is more faux bass than I'd like that just reads as boomy/wooly.
@@todd.parker thanks Todd for your reply. The thing is Minirig have to make a profit and be seen to innovate they are a business at the end of the day…I just wished they went back to the analogue chip. Interesting you mention genelec, the minirig 4’s are no doubt revealing. Could you listen to the 4’s all day do you think? I know I can on the MRBT 2’s I just worry that as long as they have this DSP then my ears get fatigued.
@@GK-mk1jg I listened to them for a few days as my desktop speakers and didn't get fatigued. Way I look at it, DSP is mostly just EQ so it's not that all DSP will sound bad, poor DSP choices will sound bad. I really feel like they made a lot of subtle but positive DSP tweaks in version 4 that make them more neutral and less forward so I think you'd like them if you like a flat profile. I'd be curious to do a head to head vs version 2, sounds like they were sweet
I had minirigs from 1 uptil 3. Loved the clearity in the 1, but it lacks bass and bluetooth, the 2 were an huge upgrade, and sounded so good, just hated the analog limiter, so much distortion when bass comes on and it has to activate. The 3 plays loud, lots of bass, lacks the some clearity from the 2, but still love it, stereo pair is buggy, but BT is some messy shit to work with. The 4 seems like going for more clearity again. Though it's still one of the best sounding Bluetooth speakers I have heard.
Never really been a fan of these minirigs. A mate went through 3 due to constant faults and issues. Sure they sound great for the size and they are definitely a step up in fidelity when compared to most Bluetooth speakers but with stuff like the soundcore boom 2 it's hard to justify these anymore. I feel it's also a bit late in the game to be touting the USB c as a feature as it should have been the norm for a while now.
Oof, that's no good. My 3's have been very reliable for me and I've been testing the 4's all summer and it's been smooth sailing. I hope Minirig took care of your friend. As far as whether they are worth it, it comes down to whether you value a neutral, accurate sound with lots of detail or just want something for casual listening. Listening on axis and A/B testing, I genuinely think these are very close to my Genelec studio monitors so the accuracy and detail is there which is crazy impressive. You can hear in the sound samples how bad even a "good" bluetooth speaker like the Marshall sounds compared to the Minirigs.
i got rid of all my bluetooth crap. constant emf just can't be beneficial in the long run. maybe look into quality wired items to reduce ones emf load.
You can choose to not use Bluetooth and go with a wired connection but I honestly don't think BT is a problem since they are low power. Minirigs are better than most because they are set up for chaining multiple speakers with the dual input/output jacks.
Utter overhyped.... Lots of issues huge latency issues and they lack alot of clarity at high volume They are nice to have at the beach or at a picnic but thats it
I am an owner of 2.1 Minirig 3 and I find your comparison very helpful however imo even Minirig 4 is still far from being a high end speaker. Long battery life and boominess don’t mean they have a refined sound. Moreover, with all the cables and everything they are far from being practical despite their tiny size. Maybe for hikers and bikers it is nice to have for outdoor purpose but not in my living room. I’d rather buy a Bose home speaker, VIFA or something similar produced by a company with history of HI-FI culture rather than a group of boutique enthusiasts attempting new things with lots of try-errors in the process.
You can’t go by the YT audio, it always sounds bad but you can hear the relative difference between speakers and the Marshall sounds 10x worse even though it’s bigger and more expensive
They arnt cheap but I have heard around 5 dif bluetooth speakers of varying price points in the small to mid-sized area and these are way better than them all. Also, everything is expensive now, the Minirig 4 is about the same cost as 20 beers in a bar where I am and will last a lot longer :)
I have an old Bose SoundLink mini which I have used for years and thought it sounded really good….Then I bought a pair of these and they are a different beast entirely.
