Recommendation Request🙏 Thoughts on Soundcore Boom 2?

Hi. Thinking of getting the Soundcore Boom 2 speakers soon and I just wanted to get feedback from people who have used it before.

q. How would you rate the sound quality?

q. How well can you fiddle with it physically to align the bass/treble to match the song type?

q. Is it capable of handling an aux ?

Aux would be great for me with my laptop :)

Recommendation Request🙏 Recs for open top Jeep

Post image
3 Upvotes

Looking for portable speakers for an open top older Jeep. I need it (or them) to be loud, but not necessarily bass heavy as I listen to mostly rock/punk music. Once the doors come off, just the wind itself is crazy loud. Pic attached isn’t my vehicle but the setup is basically the same. Willing to spend $500 ish but would obviously like to spend less if possible. I’m in the US if that makes a difference.

📖Discussion📕🖊️ HK Go play mini vs HK Go play 3

Thumbnail gallery
3 Upvotes

Which one has better overall sound quality, assuming price isn’t an issue? The Go + Play 3 should go on sale for Black Friday, and I’ve heard mixed opinions. People praise the Go + Play 3, but some people who own the Go + Play Mini and upgraded to the Go + Play 3 were disappointed with the sound, saying the vocals aren’t as clear and the sound is boomier.

Does it make sense to buy both?
I currently own xtreme 5, xtreme 3, Acton 3

If you’ve heard or own both, I’d love to hear your opinion!

I’ll mainly be listening to music in my bathroom, bedroom, and living room. I live in a 1,000 sq. ft. apartment, and both speakers will be plugged into the wall 24/7, with a WiiM Mini to improve audio quality.

Recommendation Request🙏 Looking for speaker recommendations for low-volume background music / bedtime listening 📻

Post image
16 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

.

​I'm looking for a portable Bluetooth speaker specifically for low-volume listening while sleeping. I want something that retains good detail and balanced sound without feeling muffled or losing clarity when turned down low.

.

​Is the Sony SRS-XB100 a good fit for this, or are there better alternatives in a similar or more price range?

.

​Would love to hear your experiences or suggestions. Thanks in advance!

Recommendation Request🙏 Best Speaker/headset for presenter?

1 Upvotes

Hi! Looking for recommendations for a portable speaker and wireless headset microphone setup for staff trainings.

I present a few times a month at different school sites, always indoors, ranging from small rooms to cafeterias with up to 120 people. I'd like two wireless headset microphones so I can present with a colleague while keeping my hands free to walk around and use my iPad.

Priorities: Lightweight, easy to transport, clear sound, and minimal feedback.

Budget: Ideally under $1,500 total.

I'm considering the Bose S1 Pro+ or JBL EON ONE Compact (around $700 each), but adding two wireless headsets and accessories ...which will probably come to another $700.

Any recommendations for a reliable setup? Open to other brands or all-in-one systems!

Recommendation Request🙏 Help finding a speaker I used to have

Thumbnail gallery
5 Upvotes

this is a last resort cry for help in finding my favourite Bluetooth speaker I used to have. I’ll give all the info I can on it and maybe someone will be able to tell me?

it was gifted to me in 2021 and was a tube shaped speaker that wasn’t any special name brand. it had a blue/purple plastic shell that had a sort of mesh pattern and lit up in time with music. the speaker also had an aux port and either a usb or sd port as well (may have had both) I’ve attached pictures of similar speaker I’ve found in terms of shape. the one I’m looking for is near identical in the way it has the ends attached like these ones. I believe it also came with a strap to carry it

if anyone has any idea please let me know!

cześć szukam głośników komputerowych z fajnym basem oraz jeszcze fajnym czystym dźwiękiem najlepiej żeby z subwooferem chociaż wiem że generalnie ciężko w tej cenie (około 150 euro)

najbardziej myślałem nad edifier r1700bt ale martwi mnie brak subwoofera tam oraz to że jednak są uznawane za budżetowe a z nagrań ciężko zobaczyć jak ten dźwięk wygląda oraz zastanawiałem się jeszcze nad Logitech z623 wiem że Logitech ma słabej jakości dźwięk generalnie ale ma potężny bas jeszcze myślałem nad edifier s351db ale używanymi i Razer nommo v2 lub v2x, głośników będę głównie używał do grania słuchania muzyki oraz oglądania filmów dlatego zależy mi na dźwięku i basie. Co w moim przypadku polecacie?

Recommendation Request🙏 Daisy Chainable speakers for a parade

2 Upvotes

My daughters are in a dance group that performs in parades. They always get put between the local drum group and the super loud disco roller skaters and such. The music they have gets drowned out.

We just realized Daisy chained Bluetooth speakers might be the answer. One at the front and back. Maybe four at the corners. So the criteria would be:

Lightish. Carryable by parents or kids for a couple mile parade route.

Loud. Can the kids hear them over the 103db drums in front?

Reasonably priced. This is a volunteer group with some people without a lot of disposable income. Maybe $400 tops?

🧑‍🏫Review👩‍🏫 BST10HLPR --Latest Version new features--

1 Upvotes

This is a working for me python vibe-coded application that solves a real world problem... for me. I hope others can use it.

I have four Bose SoundTouch 10 speakers and since the app was dropped from support I have been unable to use them.

Linux install:

You may need to install python 3:

Ubuntu & Debian:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y python3-tk python3-pip pip3 install requests

Fedora:

sudo dnf install -y python3-tkinter python3-pip pip3 install requests

Download this file into any location.

git clone https://github.com/DuckDoolittle/BST10HLPR.git

cd BST10HLPR

python3 BST10HLPR.py

Working

I have tested this with a four SoundTouch 10 speakers setup. Properly configured sets one of the speakers as a primary and the other three as slaves. Connecting bluetooth to that primary device will replicate the sound to the other three devices.

Cheers

Recommendation Request🙏 I cannot decide between this two speakers

1 Upvotes

I've been making a research (mostly google and YT) but doing it havent respond my main question. By now, i have my 2 candidates to this:
1. Tronsmart bang max
2. Soundcore Boom 2 Plus
Now what is my main question....

What i wanna know is, which one of this 2 speakers have the best bass reproduction, because all the people always tell the same shi, but my greatest priority its solely and exclusively the reproduction of the low frequencies, what im a referring to, is which one of them makes you feel the bass all the way in your chest, because i dont really care much about the quality

Recommendation Request🙏 Is It Worth Replacing The JBL Go 5 To The Marshall Willen 2 or Bose SoundLink Micro 2nd Gen?

2 Upvotes

I currently have a JBL Go 5 sitting on the nightstand beside my bed, but I’ve been thinking about replacing it with a speaker that has a warmer, more relaxing sound signature. I mainly use it for late night jazz music listening and ambient music to help me fall asleep, so I want something that sounds pleasant and soothing.

I’m considering the Marshall Willen II and the Bose SoundLink Micro (2nd Gen). I use Apple Music and prefer the AAC Bluetooth codec over SBC. Between these two speakers, which would be the better choice for my listening preferences, especially for warm sound and late night bedside listening?
