As an owner of two stormbox blasts, everything was clear from impression of your face at 23:55 but lets wait and see if eq can improve blast 2. Thank you for your work
I bought my Blast 2 for $250 (tax included). When it arrived today, I was pleasantly surprised that I also received a free wired mic inside the case. It really does look quite premium for essentially a freebie. I'm very satisfied with the speaker and the mic, pretty amazing deal overall in my opinion. I'm really liking this mid-bass heavy sound signature, it's quite a different experience compared to my Boombox 3.
Hi Alan. the disappointment in your voice is palpable.... A honest and pure review keep going you are trusted by many. Me included have a good day Dennis x

We need an eq ASAP for that blast 2! Also comparison with Boombox 3 WiFi and Wking X20!! 🎉🎉Amazing vid and I feel like ur unboxing style vid is entertaining, u don't need anything fancy to have a good unboxing video! Keep it up:D
@@alanrossreviewsyeah no problem! A vid to compare the markets top few boombox style speakers would be awesome, especially using the bb3 wifi edition as I feel like it's tuning is so much better than the original, and there are very very few vids about the bb3 wifi compared with other speakers
I don't know about the other viewers but I will wait for your conclusion that will influence my purchase decision. This unboxing was bad in your eyes only I think, I enjoyed it from start to finish. Alan, you rock!
I like the new one because the lights are better. The old one reminded me of pieces of assorted candy on the front of my speaker when I put it in the rainbow setting.
The only BTS channel reviewer that i personally trust, more informative than the other, it's you that always I waited since the leak of Stormbox blast 2

Здравствуйте.Вы ответственный человек, ещё и с чувством юмора. Мне нравятся ваши обзоры. У вас в колонке версия прошивки 7.9/6.9 . Я видел ещё один ранний обзор Tribit 2.Там версия уже 8.1/6.9 . И звук из Tribit 2 уже улучшился. И вы были правы, когда сказали ,что пока рано огорчаться,т.к. серьёзного подхода к корректировке вы ещё не делали. У меня имеется Tribit 1 , я захотел взять Tribit 2. Думал,что будет достойная замена. Буду ждать ваш вариант эквалайзера.Спасибо заранее.
@@alanrossreviews A bit mid-bassy like your said but I kind of like that sound proile. But also comes across quite deep on my headphones (Hifiman H9's+Tangzu Wag'ner). Sounds wider, deeper and somewhat fuller to me than the older model, unless my ears are kaput lol.
I think all they had to do was keep the same bass as the original Blast but improve the trebles. They were quite recessed on my Blast. Also, I have predicted that the extra electronics for the karaoke was not going to bode well for the sound quality. Let's wait for the full review and see . It was definitely an unnecessary addition for those of us who just want better sound compared to the original Blast. How many of the people interested in the Blast 2 were thinking, I can't wait for the karaoke feature. 😅
Which is why this is the blast xl, not the blast 2. Tribit wanted to take on the bb3 while being more for the party crowd. Trouble is they are late to the market and bb3 is not the only game in town.
Just got it today… xtra bass and 3d are horrible. Messed with the Eq a bit (I have no knowledge on frequencies and such only that the left side is bass focused and the right side bands treble) and I managed to get some more life out of it, even a bit more volume. There’s potential within the custom Eq and can’t wait to see if you can find one that’s atleast half as good as the one you made for the first one
Well, you have the pre production unit and the standard Blast 2 so now you just need the Jay's iyagi version where the frequency response stays exactly the same at all volume steps. Jk. 🤭 😇 Thank you for another great one, Alan! Looking forward to the full review! 😁👏👍
Thanks for the video Alan! I'm not at all qualified, but it seems to me that by throwing larger 45 mid drivers in there, along with the new 80 subwoofer, the tweeters are just being drowned out?
As always, pretty nice overview ! As a Tribit Blast OG owner, can't wait to see your further thoughts on this upgrade. Also would be re-e-eally interesting to see something exotic like Brane X speaker in your channel. (compared to the Tribit bad boys too:) )
@@alanrossreviewsI love my brane X but I just cant ignore the disappointing treble. Here is a snippet from Rtings review. This speaker is let down by its veiled treble response, which lacks detail compared to competitors like the Sonos. Lead instruments lack high-end shimmer, and sibilants, like cymbals, sound a little muted. It also results in the upper harmonics of vocals losing some presence.
Blast 2 doesn't support aac, already this alone gives the X20 the win. It was the sbc codec that ruined my impression of Blast 1. sbc introduces a high frequency squeal when playing deep bass at high volume. I tested several speakers and headphones and all of them had this squeak when using sbc, if you use aac, aptx, ldac there is no squeak. I tested with different smartphones on android and iOS and was convinced that this is exactly the problem of sbc codec. It can be heard in a small number of tracks, exactly when playing, only deep bass and to it is added high-frequency whistling, which is not in the track.
SB1- Clearer and louder voice SB2- Bass is booming like a proper portable concert machine but tinier voice its like the speaker has comparable sound output to Tronsmart Bang Max more bass but reduces the voice clarity and loudess almost same with other sound box with Karaoke function since here in Philippines people is Karaoke addicts and soundbox, boom box is the 1st choice due to it's portability ( Dunno but even in small time SB1 is better with me, waiting for firmware update to SB2 to see if the new one can match the clarity and voice loudness of the SB1)
The highs seems more natural on the 2 (exit the big dip at 5.5khz) and the sound is bigger for sure, can't wait for the measurement and your final opinion :D
Does the Tribit speaker have problems with noise and sound distortion at the lowest volume levels like the Wking X20 speaker? Sound similar to a poorly adjusted noise gate. The Wking X20 speaker has good reviews, but no one mentions the product's defect. Can you listen to the speaker for example at night on a volume scale of for example, 1/15? The king X20 was unusable.
I don't know why I can't find anything that sounds better than my Klipsch Pro-Media 2.1 that I got used for $150 or something. It just doesn't have the oppressive upper based a lot of the speakers have.
Hmmm...Alan's first unboxing video, not bad she said😁 First impressions ain't the final stage yet, break in, some updates, some custom Eq...we'll know it's full potential then, defaults doesn't do justice mostly to the sound quality From this first listen, I'll say it definitely has more bass than the OG blast but the OG blast sounds more relaxing & full to my ears at least 10 watts input for charging an approximately 90 wh (24,300 mah) battery is insane, it'll take ages to get fully charged, taking 3 - 5hrs via mains to fully charge by my guess will be taking around 25 - 30 watts of power Overall, i await your full review & comparisons especially with the OG blast, X20, Boombox 3, Boombox 3 wifi, Go +play3....i believe those are some of the competitors among others, only then can we know whether it's worth it or not especially for the asking price of $300 I haven't seen you run the Boom 2 of soundcore in TWS let's know how it sounds as compared to just one with that single woofer & two tweeters & again whether or not the TWS connection is fiddly or well made like the OG Boom Your channel is the one i believe & trust most so long as BT speaker is concerned, i await on a lot if confirmations from you before making certain decisions on bt speakers More power to you Alan Cheers!
Great reviews alan... tribit should listen to ur feedback from early on... nw the spiker sound so muudy😂 i think trouble to balance 2.1 spiker compare to 2 channel spiker.... Alan do you still have tribit max sound plus 1.4 frimware... i can't find anywhere?takyou❤
Great review Alan. I have two original tribit blast but I've been following your reviews about the X20. Should I get the new Tri-Bit blast 2 or is the X20 still the king? Cheers! 😎
12:12 now we know how much that grill weights haha Could it become an actual Blast successor with some custom eq touch ups? 🤔 Can't wait for the full review
I can see unboxing isn't your thing but it was done Alan style. But I'm sure you will get down to biznezzz and see what the TSBB2 brings to the table. That initial test sounded ok to me..I'm sure like you said it will take a few days to adjust to the way it sounds. Also looking fwd as you compare it with other Bluetooth speakers
OK, I am definitiely looking forward to your full video on it and certainly the side by side with the x20 which they clearly were going after. I REALLY agree with you it sounded muddy in this initial take.Yeah a little mid-bass heavy? But certainly not full Boom 2 Plus levels. IT sounds like it will be pretty popular for the beach. I will be interested in teh 80-100% volume as well as that was the main flaw of the OG blast (in my opinion). And really, it is not so much a "flaw" as them trying to squeeze every 10th of a db they could hahah. My gut feeling is that the stock tuning on the x20 is a lot clearer than that Blast 2. Hopefully the custom eq will have enough oomf to bring the Blast 2 to life... Funny thinking about the x20 is that I bought it to hopefully be a simple bass practice amp and it kinda sucked at that but man, if you needed a single speaker to bring somewhere where it needed to be LOUD, well.. there it is. I don't really have that need but it also is the speaker I grab if I do want some volume and don't want to care about damage to the speaker.
yeah i got 112db on my test track for the x20. it will take something to beat that. this thing is crazy mid bass heavy! and with eq you can even push that more 🤣 but for me in that xbass mode its unlistenable as the bass overwhelms everything.
only 7kg not too bad but i am done with portable audio i think the edifier d12 with a subwoofer is better unfortunately my whaferdale diamond 9.1 died so hopefully the edifier d12 is better
@@alanrossreviewstrue everything is mid bass or only deep bass either way bluetooth portable speakers cant deliver the quality that home speakers deliver which can deliver you the full experience only problem though is portability
Just got my blast 2. I like it overall. It doesn't play as deep as I was hoping for but its decent down to about 40hz. There's some bass down to 35 hz but its extremely rolled off. It's definitely mid bass heavy. You can really feel the bass rumbling into your chest. I compared it to my encore and it has more overall bass then the encore which is impressive but the encore does have a more refined bass that digs a touch deeper but its not a huge difference. You do have to max out bass in the custom eq to beat the encore, but if you just use the presets, the encore still wins. Maxing out bass in the custom eq is impressive, but way way to bass dominant. I compared it to a skullcandy barrel xt and it makes the barrel sound like a toy. It has far more bass power then a go play 3. Bass on the play 3 is imo more refined. If tribit can retune the bass to be less mid bass heavy it would be better. Encore plugged in still beats the blast 2 in bass. But not much. Some tracks the blast 2 bass sounds more impressive and vice-versa
@Flyingboots1 the 3d sound is strange. I can't get used to it. It works but I don't think it sounds all that great. The tuning does seam a bit v shaped.
Hey Alan! Do you think that with an eq the new blast has potential? And I really hope tribit launches firmware updates, cause a speaker that size not having much deep bass is lnt great
Blast 2 aka blast XXL sounds so damn muffled compared to OG BLAST. It's actually worse than the older version. Waste of money. Did you try the setting 3D in Blast2 compared to XBass in Blast 1? What do you think Alan about between these two specific settings?
@@StayReal02 at louder volumes it works as a party speaker. At lower volumes you need to turn xbass off. Blast 1 and blast xl are geared at two different types of listeners
@@alanrossreviews thank you Alan! ❤️ So that means that at lower volume like indoor, it's better to use OG BLAST and for outdoor it's better to use Blast XL?
You did it!!!! Thankssss!! Alan Is The One And Only (that´s what she said???) WOW!!! Congratulations!!! 😎 In Alan We Trust, must be printed Everywhere, and show in all LED displays. I want to see it in your cap!! Otherwise, lets keep us better with The first Blast, I´m sure we can all say it is more... Hi-🐟 😁
"In Alan we trust"????? WHY - when he presents himself as a complete idiot? How can you take seriously, or believe, anything said by a person who does not take their work seriously. Surely you must question his reliability? The man has issues! The obsessive fan-boy also has hero issues!
I recieved mine yesterday , the blast one seems better to me ,the sound is fuller and the mids and voice are louder on the first one , the second one only has better bass range ,but high hz bass sounds fuller on the first one same with mids and voice , you think tribit will retune the second one ? I dont wanna return it but i might need too as the sound stage isnt good for the speaker its size
@@juan_f150 i mean you can use it with xbass off. I gave feedback many weeks ago about its crazy mid bass boost but they don't seem too bothered at this point 🤷
Alan I have to ask after you EQ the Tri-Beat 2; Do you think it will be worth it upgrading from the OG Tribit Stormbox blast? Thanks! I'll wait for the full review video just curious 😊
@@alanrossreviews Just the 1. They've said that the only thing that wont be to everyones taste is that the sound signatures are slightly different but would sound good in my opinion the blend of the two. Could always use the EQs or custom one or the other for nearest match which I'm sure would work well.👍.
@@alanrossreviews Daaamn. Thanks for letting me know Alan. That's how you communicate on RUclips not three weeks later if at all. Great Vids, keep up the good work. Thanks again. I look forward to your full review. I've already got two Blast ones but one packed up after about a year but I had ripped the grill off like you have with one of yours. If I gave you £60 would you be interested in having a look at it for me? I'm sure it's an easy fix. It just wont charge. I think it's a faulty power in socket. I'm not great with electronics. Best Wishes. Toby.
I am actually using the 2x Tribit Stormbox Blast for outside listening quite often, even carying them for longer distances with a suitcase and a kickscooter. The idea to carry this by hand or shoulder is ridiculous, carrying a weight like that onesided over a distance will give you back/shoulderpain after a few times, and I consider myself fit with 30 years. All those big stupid ass bluetooth speakers have stupid ass big hard fixed handles taking 30% of space in a suitcase. Or just be done with it and add some small rolls. Or small strap attachments that dont take any space, like with the JBL extreme 4. We invented perfect inexpensive handles for suitcases that fold decades ago, why can't they do it. A Earfun Uboom X would have perfect measurements, even for carrying two in one backpack, if not for the stupid ass handles. Also I like that you call this a Stormbox Blast XL, I dont want anything bigger than the the Stormbox Blast 1. I actually wish that there would be a decent medium size party speaker with support for "partycast" with just the deepest bass possible for the weight class around 3-4 kg, so that I can decide if I need 1-2 or 4. The Uboom almost got that but misses a bit, the Boom 2 Plus is also not worth it.
@@alanrossreviewsyeah Thas understandable kinda surprised you didn’t edit a duh in over the removed grill lol… just finished and to be fair I’ve seen far worse unboxing then this even without the proper set up for playback the difference was obvious, can’t wait for the full one to see just how far they’ve taken it… definitely gotta chuck the x20 and old blast into the full comparisons hope it doesn’t take too long for you to get a good eq for it lol
I am confused between these two i delayed my purchase bcz of this launch but after watching it seems like it is muddy can it be because they are new will eq or burning will help also coupon only available for 7 days can you please update in few days, really confused currently
i cant see them rolling back on this but they will add a traditional blast eq in the next app update they say. but they didnt get that right for the xsound plus 2 so i am not confident.
I dont think oluvs tuning of the uboom x is anything that special, it probably is to most people but its a highly EQ able speaker and everyone has different tastes, i prefer my own tuning. You should have a play about with it imo
The only channel I trust in the entire internet

Alan, in a nutshell what do you think of the storm box blast 2? What is the best equalizer setting for this new speaker that I have?
Tribit 1 звук более прозрачный. Средние частоты более выражены. Tribit 2 больше баса после 100 hz

Looks promising, I wonder how it will go up against the harman kardon go play 3 and partybox encore
This ☝️
Well probably not as deep as either
I have to test their max potential, using 3rd party eq. Hopefully with a subwoofer on the blast 2 the bass can be deeper with proper tuning cheers! 🎉🎉
I don't know why I can't find anything that sounds better than my Klipsch Pro-Media 2.1 that I got used for $150 or something. It just doesn't have the oppressive upper based a lot of the speakers have.
upper bass sells 😣
Hmmm...Alan's first unboxing video, not bad she said😁
First impressions ain't the final stage yet, break in, some updates, some custom Eq...we'll know it's full potential then, defaults doesn't do justice mostly to the sound quality
From this first listen, I'll say it definitely has more bass than the OG blast but the OG blast sounds more relaxing & full to my ears at least
10 watts input for charging an approximately 90 wh (24,300 mah) battery is insane, it'll take ages to get fully charged, taking 3 - 5hrs via mains to fully charge by my guess will be taking around 25 - 30 watts of power
Overall, i await your full review & comparisons especially with the OG blast, X20, Boombox 3, Boombox 3 wifi, Go +play3....i believe those are some of the competitors among others, only then can we know whether it's worth it or not especially for the asking price of $300
I haven't seen you run the Boom 2 of soundcore in TWS let's know how it sounds as compared to just one with that single woofer & two tweeters & again whether or not the TWS connection is fiddly or well made like the OG Boom
Your channel is the one i believe & trust most so long as BT speaker is concerned, i await on a lot if confirmations from you before making certain decisions on bt speakers

I hear ya 👌
Finally❤❤❤
Thank you Alan! Do you think I should upgrade from two encores to two blasts 2?
I think I should stay with them so far.
That makes little sense really
Great reviews alan... tribit should listen to ur feedback from early on... nw the spiker sound so muudy😂 i think trouble to balance 2.1 spiker compare to 2 channel spiker....
Alan do you still have tribit max sound plus 1.4 frimware... i can't find anywhere?takyou❤
@@gadingguna4099 i still have the Maxsound plus yes. Just never use it these days.
Great review Alan. I have two original tribit blast but I've been following your reviews about the X20. Should I get the new Tri-Bit blast 2 or is the X20 still the king? Cheers! 😎
hang on a week for the full review
Hello Sir, would you mind setting up your own EQ settings for the Uboom L and showing them to us?
you cannot eq oluvs presets. also earfun haven't paid me to eq it 🤣
@@alanrossreviews alright, thanks for answer. I enjoy your style
nice video 💪
Best video i've seen!
today? 🤔
6:37 I am absolutely shocked that you let that opportunity slip by!
cant wait for mine...its got slap!
Yup you cant say wheres the bass on this one 😊
12:12 now we know how much that grill weights haha
Could it become an actual Blast successor with some custom eq touch ups? 🤔
Can't wait for the full review
to be continued............
I just unboxed the storm box blast 2.
I can see unboxing isn't your thing but it was done Alan style.
But I'm sure you will get down to biznezzz and see what the TSBB2 brings to the table. That initial test sounded ok to me..I'm sure like you said it will take a few days to adjust to the way it sounds. Also looking fwd as you compare it with other Bluetooth speakers
yeah now i will take my time and get it right
It sounds like it has a lot of potential hopefully they fix the tuning with updates, and hopefully it's fixable with eq
well i already gave them my feedback months ago 😂 saying just that!
Al, compare it to the x 20 with your settings…then I’ll feel it’s fairly tested!
U can also compare it with both w-king x20 D20 and Sony alt 7
OK, I am definitiely looking forward to your full video on it and certainly the side by side with the x20 which they clearly were going after. I REALLY agree with you it sounded muddy in this initial take.Yeah a little mid-bass heavy? But certainly not full Boom 2 Plus levels. IT sounds like it will be pretty popular for the beach. I will be interested in teh 80-100% volume as well as that was the main flaw of the OG blast (in my opinion). And really, it is not so much a "flaw" as them trying to squeeze every 10th of a db they could hahah.
My gut feeling is that the stock tuning on the x20 is a lot clearer than that Blast 2. Hopefully the custom eq will have enough oomf to bring the Blast 2 to life...
Funny thinking about the x20 is that I bought it to hopefully be a simple bass practice amp and it kinda sucked at that but man, if you needed a single speaker to bring somewhere where it needed to be LOUD, well.. there it is. I don't really have that need but it also is the speaker I grab if I do want some volume and don't want to care about damage to the speaker.
yeah i got 112db on my test track for the x20. it will take something to beat that. this thing is crazy mid bass heavy! and with eq you can even push that more 🤣 but for me in that xbass mode its unlistenable as the bass overwhelms everything.
@@alanrossreviews I agree from what I heard here. Still looking forward to the full video on this odd one.
only 7kg not too bad but i am done with portable audio i think the edifier d12 with a subwoofer is better unfortunately my whaferdale diamond 9.1 died so hopefully the edifier d12 is better
👍
@@alanrossreviews just an excuse not to buy the tribit cuz i am broke 😂
@@jacobdavidson9752 join the club 🤣 thank god i didnt have to pay for this
@@alanrossreviewstrue everything is mid bass or only deep bass either way bluetooth portable speakers cant deliver the quality that home speakers deliver which can deliver you the full experience only problem though is portability
@@alanrossreviews😂😂😂
Please all song mentioned in discription.
Just got my blast 2. I like it overall. It doesn't play as deep as I was hoping for but its decent down to about 40hz. There's some bass down to 35 hz but its extremely rolled off. It's definitely mid bass heavy. You can really feel the bass rumbling into your chest. I compared it to my encore and it has more overall bass then the encore which is impressive but the encore does have a more refined bass that digs a touch deeper but its not a huge difference. You do have to max out bass in the custom eq to beat the encore, but if you just use the presets, the encore still wins. Maxing out bass in the custom eq is impressive, but way way to bass dominant. I compared it to a skullcandy barrel xt and it makes the barrel sound like a toy. It has far more bass power then a go play 3. Bass on the play 3 is imo more refined. If tribit can retune the bass to be less mid bass heavy it would be better. Encore plugged in still beats the blast 2 in bass. But not much. Some tracks the blast 2 bass sounds more impressive and vice-versa
If all you care about is bass then this speaker is perfect for you.
@Flyingboots1 the 3d sound is strange. I can't get used to it. It works but I don't think it sounds all that great. The tuning does seam a bit v shaped.
@@alexlittig7927 V shaped? More like this shape! \___
@@Flyingboots1 L shaped 🤣
Hey Alan! Do you think that with an eq the new blast has potential? And I really hope tribit launches firmware updates, cause a speaker that size not having much deep bass is lnt great
This is the whole point of my testing so let's wait and see 😁
@@alanrossreviews 🫡🫡🫡
Добрый день, Алан😊весь прогрессивный мир ждет полный спектр по #2 , в вашем стиле с полным разбором по косточкам 😂когда уже? Let's go bro!
soon......rushing would be no good
@@alanrossreviews that's right 😎🤟
seguro mejorará con alguna actualización, pero de por sí ya debería sonar muy bien desde que se compra, y no parece ser el caso
Hello, so per your review, we are best to buy the older Stormbox Blast? Especially if it's on sale?
i havent done the review yet 😂
Blast 2 aka blast XXL sounds so damn muffled compared to OG BLAST.
It's actually worse than the older version. Waste of money.
Did you try the setting 3D in Blast2 compared to XBass in Blast 1?
What do you think Alan about between these two specific settings?
@@StayReal02 at louder volumes it works as a party speaker. At lower volumes you need to turn xbass off. Blast 1 and blast xl are geared at two different types of listeners
@@alanrossreviews thank you Alan! ❤️
So that means that at lower volume like indoor, it's better to use OG BLAST and for outdoor it's better to use Blast XL?
@@StayReal02 og blast can still do a job at higher volumes but it can't party like the blast xl can do
Stormblast 2 is massive and muddy. I'd prefer my Stormblast 1... no issues after a year!!!
Спасибо за миниобзор 👍
Пока придержу 1 трибит у себя, 2й для меня объемный, тяжелый и плохозвучащий. Если обновлять трибит то на бумбокс 110 й 💁♂️
You did it!!!! Thankssss!!
Alan Is The One And Only (that´s what she said???) WOW!!! Congratulations!!! 😎
In Alan We Trust, must be printed Everywhere, and show in all LED displays. I want to see it in your cap!!
Otherwise, lets keep us better with The first Blast, I´m sure we can all say it is more... Hi-🐟 😁
"In Alan we trust"?????
WHY - when he presents himself as a complete idiot?
How can you take seriously, or believe, anything said by a person who does not take their work seriously.
Surely you must question his reliability?
The man has issues!
The obsessive fan-boy also has hero issues!
she talks too much 🤣
@@alanrossreviews 🤣 don't underestimate your piston!!!
JBL Flip 6 VS UE Megaboom 3??
I didn't quite understand at the end. Is it better or not better? Does it outperform all speakers including the jbl bb3 or not?
this is the unboxing, review still to come
Would the difference in weight, be because the grill is off the prototype ? Grill = 35 grams ?
yeah i totally fkd up on that one
@@alanrossreviews Not a big deal. My whole life is one big fkd up. You Mr. Presley are just fine.
@@alanrossreviewsAnd the maths...6800 g vs 7050 g makes 250 g difference right not 25😊
@@pareklund i am a dunce 🤣🤣
I recieved mine yesterday , the blast one seems better to me ,the sound is fuller and the mids and voice are louder on the first one , the second one only has better bass range ,but high hz bass sounds fuller on the first one same with mids and voice , you think tribit will retune the second one ? I dont wanna return it but i might need too as the sound stage isnt good for the speaker its size
@@juan_f150 i mean you can use it with xbass off. I gave feedback many weeks ago about its crazy mid bass boost but they don't seem too bothered at this point 🤷
When can we get it in the UK?
@@wafrikano And price?
november they are saying
about £190 street price they say
@@alanrossreviews She said .
@@bnewson33 😁
Alan I have to ask after you EQ the Tri-Beat 2; Do you think it will be worth it upgrading from the OG Tribit Stormbox blast?
Thanks! I'll wait for the full review video just curious 😊
We will find out 🤞
So you dont need to uograde from the tribit first blast, to blast 2? what is opinion?
Review yet to come
Which is better
1. Stormbox blast 1
2. Stormbox blast 2
3. Jbl encore essential.
Lets wait for the review
@@alanrossreviews waiting for your review before 27th. Because early bird offer will end after that.
Can you please compare it with boombox 3?
👍
They're doing a firmware update the end of the month that will let the Blast 1 TWS link with the Blast 2.👍.
for which speaker? 1,2 or both?
@@alanrossreviews Just the 1.
They've said that the only thing that wont be to everyones taste is that the sound signatures are slightly different but would sound good in my opinion the blend of the two.
Could always use the EQs or custom one or the other for nearest match which I'm sure would work well.👍.
If im going to ask you which portable bluetooth boombox speaker is the loudest you've reviewed, Which speaker would you say?
the x20 is one of the loudest but there is more to loudness than just a headline figure
@@alanrossreviews I see. Then which speaker is the close to perfect for you?
Can you suggest 2 sbb 1 or single sbb2. 😊
@@alsajid9307 2x blast 1
Can you let everyone know if it pairs TWS with Stormbox 1 Please?
Thanks.
no it does not
@@alanrossreviews Daaamn.
Thanks for letting me know Alan.
That's how you communicate on RUclips not three weeks later if at all.
Great Vids, keep up the good work.
Thanks again.
I look forward to your full review.
I've already got two Blast ones but one packed up after about a year but I had ripped the grill off like you have with one of yours.
If I gave you £60 would you be interested in having a look at it for me? I'm sure it's an easy fix.
It just wont charge.
I think it's a faulty power in socket.
I'm not great with electronics.
Best Wishes.
Toby.
@@freepeacesweet.7547 ha! Im not sure id be much better 😝
I am actually using the 2x Tribit Stormbox Blast for outside listening quite often, even carying them for longer distances with a suitcase and a kickscooter.
The idea to carry this by hand or shoulder is ridiculous, carrying a weight like that onesided over a distance will give you back/shoulderpain after a few times, and I consider myself fit with 30 years.
All those big stupid ass bluetooth speakers have stupid ass big hard fixed handles taking 30% of space in a suitcase. Or just be done with it and add some small rolls. Or small strap attachments that dont take any space, like with the JBL extreme 4. We invented perfect inexpensive handles for suitcases that fold decades ago, why can't they do it. A Earfun Uboom X would have perfect measurements, even for carrying two in one backpack, if not for the stupid ass handles.
Also I like that you call this a Stormbox Blast XL, I dont want anything bigger than the the Stormbox Blast 1. I actually wish that there would be a decent medium size party speaker with support for "partycast" with just the deepest bass possible for the weight class around 3-4 kg, so that I can decide if I need 1-2 or 4. The Uboom almost got that but misses a bit, the Boom 2 Plus is also not worth it.
there is never seems to be the perfect speaker, probably by design 😢
Let's goooo, the moment has come 🎉
Does it sound different compared to the prerelease speaker ?
Not really 🤣
@@alanrossreviews Nice 😂
Sorry if I missed it, can this pair with the original blast?
He said he doesn't know yet
it doesnt work for me unless there is a workaround, the pairing protocols are different.
@@alanrossreviews Oof, huge miss on Tribit if that is the case.
@@alanrossreviews sounds like they will be updating the firmware on the Blast to make it pair with the Blast 2
Bluetooth 5.4 is now a thing?? 😢 I wander if it’ll fix the issues 5.3 had
Weight difference will be in the grill I imagine
Gutted I got an x600 not a blast lol
yeah! soon as i watched back i had my DUH! monet 🤣🤣
@@alanrossreviewsyeah Thas understandable kinda surprised you didn’t edit a duh in over the removed grill lol… just finished and to be fair I’ve seen far worse unboxing then this even without the proper set up for playback the difference was obvious, can’t wait for the full one to see just how far they’ve taken it… definitely gotta chuck the x20 and old blast into the full comparisons hope it doesn’t take too long for you to get a good eq for it lol
@@williamhall3043 depends what else i have going on.... Now i will focus on proper evaluation
I am confused between these two i delayed my purchase bcz of this launch but after watching it seems like it is muddy can it be because they are new will eq or burning will help also coupon only available for 7 days can you please update in few days, really confused currently
i cant see them rolling back on this but they will add a traditional blast eq in the next app update they say. but they didnt get that right for the xsound plus 2 so i am not confident.
I dont think oluvs tuning of the uboom x is anything that special, it probably is to most people but its a highly EQ able speaker and everyone has different tastes, i prefer my own tuning. You should have a play about with it imo
You know when a speaker is trying too hard when they include LED lights to differentiate from the best
🤣
Yeah, no lights on the W - KING X20.😂😂😂
2 paired stormboxblast vs
1stormboxblast 2?
I need your opinion please.
You must give me time to properly assess it
Storm 2, more bass more refined...❤❤❤
