So so glad I saw your rather eccentric videos man. :) This Boost mk2 is awesome. It is a huge step up from the standard Soundcore. Never expected such a warm sound from such a small speaker. I put up with the old speaker because it was what I had. I really really like the sound of the Boost, so much bass, rich and smooth. Also the bass can keep up with music like Rush with the constant changes, depth of sound and differing intensity. Total bargain. Cheers for the advice man, much appreciated. :)

Awesome review! I'm planning to purchase one of these. I'm kind of torn. I like the clear vocals of the maxsound (and the fact that it has an aux in) but the bass on the boost is nice too. The fact that the boost can be eqed in the app is definitely a point in it's favor, though. Buoyancy is also a good feature to have if near a deep body of water and the boost also goes louder while remaining relatively balanced. Both have their pros and cons but I'm thinking for a travel speaker maybe the boost slightly edges out the maxsound.

for sure once you get over 65% i think its the boost for me. its much like the motion plus vs the motion boom, once you hear that bass its hard to do without it.

I sometiimes notice a bit of distortion in the bass at half volume or sometimes higher volumes. It is song dependent. Can you tell me the EQ settings for lower volume listening and higher volume listening? i have used the videos for the settings is this ok? Thanks again

@Alan Ross Reviews The lack of aux input can be frustrating. Can the Soundcore Boost function as a USB Speaker? Some bluetooth speakers like Tronsmart when plugged in to a computer using a "data/sync" cable instead of a "charge only" cable allow the speaker to function as a USB speaker - no aux cable required.

Someone stole my soundcore select 2,, thinking of getting 2 upgraded maxsound plus, a lot of times I listen at low volumes, I have a motion boom, now that motion boom plus has my attention for a beastly portable, now I sleep with a motion boom behind my head listening to the Forest at Night Wild Jungle sounds circadas video, thats a good one for sleep, youll see a little rainbow and a tiger, best one ! When I take the canoe out on lake superior, I like taking the motion boom with me, that bass resonates well in the old Grumman canoe sitting on the floor, couldnt imagine the motion boom plus with those added tweeters. Your channel is soothing.

It's ok with bass up Off but, no bass at all.. I have the 1rst version, did it gone with the 2nd version ? I'm not sure, you say nope ? hard for me to understand :p

I remember when you had the Soundmax Plus for testing and you praised its flatter, more accurate frequency response but here you’ve gone for maybe a little bass boost, that’s fine it’s a matter of personal preference, I could listen to both speakers judging by your listening tests but I think I’ll now go for the Maxsound plus where the clarity and detail with it’s flatter frequency curve, I mix music on my laptop and it’ll still have way more bass response than inbuilt amp and speakers, the lack of an aux input on a speaker that has high Bluetooth latency unfortunately is a big thing for me as I mix with video and sound so yeah that’s what finally relegated the Boost for me.

Hi maybe you could give me a good advice, So here’s the thing I never used Anker or Tribit, but I’m looking for ‘the best’ budget portable bluetooth speaker for my taste. So here’s the thing I like movie/tv show music from Ramin Djawadi. I really like voices and instrumentals, but also old music (60’s till 80’s), I like to get the feeling as if the music surrounds me when I listen to it (I have a good set of headphones for this). I like music when it’s punchy or has a warm bass, but I don’t want it to be boomy or overruling the other sounds or voices. I also like clarity/brightness when listening to music (I want to hear some deepness; lows mids and highs must be recognizable). So here’s my question, which product of Anker or Tribit (or maybe there’s another product on the market) should I go for? Which one would you recommend?

@ThibautMahringer 3 жыл бұрын
I expected it, the new boost sounds completely different than the old, only the bass is similar. Mids were pushed more on the old model, while highs were not that great, there was a boost (haha funny) after 10kHz but not enough because 2kHz to 8kHz was recessed, with that grill that didn't help... I managed to remove it without breaking the air seals, it's not pretty anymore, but I recovered a bit of high end which I like. Overall it was still bass heavy, maybe a little too much even if it's impressive for the size and price. However the old model had a bass up that actually added bass, without it it was QUITE flat. I kinda prefer the older one. Here mids are a bit too shy to my taste ! Still a good value to me. (But I still prefer Maxsound plus 😝)

@@alanrossreviews Yep, but both have their own qualities. Tribit have aux for example I don't think the boost is bad, but maybe what you said about how it's a old speaker resonate with me. I think it's tuning is neither modern or flat. I have difficulties to like it (both v1 and v2) as much as I used to in 2017. It sounds like an old speaker even if ultimately it's still good, especially in bass.

I bought a Soundcore Boost in the recent Black Friday sales. Any deep bass in a track (D&B and Jungle were the worst offenders) would make a terrible rattling sound which sounded like the rear passive radiator hitting the grill. If you put on a tone generator and played a tone lower than 70hz it sounded like a machine gun even on 30% volume. Anker send me a new one that wouldn't stand on the rubber feet properly because the base was warped like a banana! Also, the volume of this new one was really low, no matter how much you cranked the volume of the source and all bass response would cut out at 50%. Sent straight back for a refund and have just ordered the Tribit. Really disappointed as the design and feature set of the Anker beats the Tribit in my opinion.
