So just play in normal mode ?

Bass reduction is not the same as low frequency

🥺.... to late🥺

@@rebeckaeriksson8583F

@@nurholik8949 yes

Jbl Xtreme is bass boosted so if you want to listen to like guitar and drums playing and you dont want to hear crazy boom (xd almost) every bass drum hit. I like to reduce bass sometimes

GreenPawWolf furries are everywhere. I‘m one too :D

GreenPawWolf my neighbor.

neighbors arent humans

GreenPawWolf Furries literally are cancer cells y'know

This is bullshit ,its no "low frequency mode" this mode just turns off the limiter and eq ajusted in the speaker,but its true if you listen music with this mode on for too long the speaker may start to make cracking noise

BassCheff 😂

TRUE af

There are still secrets.

You need to collect 2 notebooks before you can charge your phone

Just use Google

Lucky-boy 128 hah thats true :D

@@japeehhi5457 I love this comment, Lucky-boy! I write software and user manuals. I'm wasting my time on the manuals. No one reads them!

Hahaha 😂

@@davidlincoln78240 i read them i like to read manuals

These are not on the manual, the manual only lists obvious things that are not useful for the average user.

😢

@dhuhhh what happened is that he turned on low frequency mode or low bass mode as some call it and this is a feature JBL uses to check what is wrong to the speakers. drivers Don't turn it on or use over 60% volume. If you use this mode in general it will damage your speaker permanently.

So what if I do that how do I uh do it

@@josephmacias2062 i had same issue with Charge 3. Bass mode destroyed speakers. Sounded like garbage. No sound quality at all. Speakers were blowed out. I took mesurments of speakers size and dimensions and ordered new ones from ebay. Cant tell the difference in base or higher tones comparing before.

So it's better only to modificate the bass with an equilizer on the mobile phone?

Will using an equalizer app damage the speaker at all?

@@SpeciaListMK Yes, the best app is poweramp

@@Penelope416 Should be fine t tweak the EQ on app

No it’s just a power safeguard to prevent damage to the speaker. It doesn’t change the frequency range but the lower frequencies are more audible because any safeguards (it also safeguards distortion so it’s not just a rattle or buzz down the low end) and actually reduces bass quality because of its buzzy quality and you could literally blow the speaker.

Thanks ! I appreciate the effort you have shown owners of the JBL speaker.

the low bass is worse bc it will play low hz and will break it EVEN more

My jbl boombox is locked😭😭😭 help please

Martin Lavrič disables+

Disables*

Prakash Acharya probably needs a new battery

Hi on the box back sirde number will be there of jbl customer support call them they will further assist you or elsee email jbl support at india_csupport@harman.com

i have the same problem did you find a solution ?

I have the same problem

the USB is only for internal updates and service, it cannot play mp3 via USB. you need a smartphone

PieniuATV thats true ...

There are 4 modes with the bt and - buttons

PieniuATV I hear this argument very often. What it does it that it disables the DSP processing, which indeed gets rid of the low-cut, making it go lower (Not 5 Hz, that isn’t even close to hearable with the human ear, let alone that a 3” driver can produce it. It only moves at 5Hz, but doesn’t produce sound), but it reduces bass a lot, because the bass boost that the Xtreme is known for has been programmed into the DSP. Which is what gets disabled when turning on that mode. Clavinetjunkie made some frequency response measurements of this, and there is a great loss in the bass, just that it reaches slightly deeper. There we go, cleared that up for you.

PieniuATV it is true. On my charge 2+ it limites the bass too.

PieniuATV It Turns off DSP, Reducing bass in the mid 60hz and allows down too 5hz in the process because it removes frequency protection

there is an aux in on the extreme, what are you on about?>

Vadim Chuchkov maybe a loose wire?

mygiguser , thanks for the reply! unfortunately not, that seems a software bug or smth...actually its now showing 4 out of 5 lights shining, but it keeps turning off constantly. Any chance to reboot the systme for instance?

kr3at1vek1ll3rz how do you know this? Is there an official manual for this online?

mygiguser i have the same speaker^^

mygiguser when you turn the equalizer off the music is how your phone send it not changed vor better sound inprovements

mygiguser end how i kno it i saw it on KZfaq

kr3at1vek1ll3rz mine has like 4 or so modes to cycle through. I updated it through the JBL app.

Anyway, I like this technic! The sound is the most important thing, so they have sucess with that!

poly nominal there’s no way to downgrade. Everything is controlled by the JBL app.

What do you mean with that lmao????

Have you tried with the charger connected? Does it still do that? If not i would guess it's a weak battery.

mygiguser yes i tried it. Thank you. I need to replace the battery.

Ace Winfield Loyola kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ptaddaeYndbIZ3k.html

Ace Winfield Loyola yes please, mine doing the same

I can help u tru my facebook

Oh yes it is possible with any speaker. Depending on the music you can damage them.

​@@mygiguser Thanks man! I discovered this yesterday and it's been playing on this setting since then, and i was wondering if there's any chance it could be affected

why it is al about BASS

Am1rExpert i looked it up, and it is 40% charge at 15°C or 59°F that means if you look at the power LEDs, 2 of 5 on should be the best bet on storing the Xtreme or Xtreme2

Für nen deutschten hat der aber ganzschön amerikanische steckdosen 🧐

Es kann ja sein dass ein deutscher in Amerika wohnt oder nicht? Auf jedenfall MUSS DAS EIN DEUTSCHER SEIN

Gerrit Harteveld fuck off

Ja hab ich mir auch gedacht xD

Nur Deutsche regen sich darüber auf wenn ein Deutscher Englisch spricht. Warum ist das so? Wo ist das Problem? Mit Deutschland geht es zu ende. Es sprechen halt viel mehr Menschen Englisch als Deutsch. Da muss man sich langsam mal global anpassen, die Kommunikation mit anderen Völkern einfacher machen. Vergesst Deutsch einfach und lernt Englisch.

Csergõ Olivèr Bro you had to press the vol up and connect button for 3 sec to knew a filmware version, not for 10 sec...

kiss csapat no, that doesn’t work.

JBL stated you can’t do that due to its hardware.

I think is to lock d speaker

Riel Fernandes yes, that’s normal. The fifth LED blinks only when the battery is 100% full.

this can be a problem with the battery this happens sometimes with the models that they dont fully charge the battery is broken then you can fix it at jbl or the store you bought it

no, just the looks

That indeed is a good question!

What model?

@@mygiguser charge 2 plus

It's for lower hz songs where the bass is slightly hearable on regular mode

5 _lol low frequency is for more bass not les bass

It‘s not called low frequency mode. This mode disables the dsp.

@@jblbasstester6198 What is the DSP ? what does it mean ? is it safe to use is it designed to be used ? Its not in the manual so I am assuming it is suppose to be some kind of like I dunno fixing making sure it works mode or something.

DSP stands for digital signal processing. Almost every big BT Speaker uses a DSP chip in order to modify sound signals. It counts to general hardware, which is the reason why it is not mentioned in the manual. JBL enabled a function for us to disable DSP, so that the speaker doesn't modify or limit sound signals. There are some speculations as to why JBL did this, but i think this is the reason: -Encourage market share simply by the fact that people make videos with this mode (same reason i started my channel) People are buying these speakers to mess around with them on YT Whether it is safe to use or not - depends on the speaker. From the Flip-Xtreme series you notice massive distortion when using this mode. The speakers can also bottom out. Powerful Amplifiers like on the Charge 4 are actually able to burn its OWN coil when playing a fixed low frequency and cutting cutting the cone out from the basket (so it doesn't cool by moving) This shows that it can be dangerous when using it at an extreme level. Don't be worried though: This can't happen if you don't cut out the paper of the speaker, because i've never actually seen it. Then we have the Boombox and Partybox It pretty much totally safe to use the DSP off mode on these. They have almost no distortion on maximum volume, which leads me to believe that they use the cheapest amplifiers possible, as they're not really powerful. Of course, again, you shouldn't directly play low frequencies (like a 50hz tone) at maximum volume, otherwise your amplifier can get really hot on these speakers. Small advice: These modes are pretty much useless if you want to purely listen to music. It reduces bass at lower volumes, makes all speakers sound kind of bad and undefined and makes some speakers distort on higher volumes. Of course there are people like me who use these modes for loudness purposes. The JBL Xtreme can get extremely loud when using this mode, but it distorts like crazy on higher volumes. I have to use an EQ to reduce bass to such a level that it won't distort, but there are downsides. -Worse sound quality (Bass is undefined, lower bass notes distort while mid bass is pretty muted; treble response is artifacty, and so on.) -Extreme Battery Drain -Possible damage to Tweeters when boosting treble in DSP off mode (one of the tweeters on my JBL Xtreme is broken, don't know whether it comes from using this method or not) In conclusion, just don't use DSP off mode if you normally want to listen to music.

MY Personal Spin i have added something to my comment. It is pretty important, so reading it is a good idea

I think they share the same secrets.

You can’t get rid of the startup sound. Just turn it on and shove it under your bed sheets that will mute most of it lol

@@luke4800 You can get rid of it. unfortunately i didn't remember how i did it and didn't find where is the answer of Harman support which tell me how to do it. As far as i remember it was pressing 2 button for 10 sec but i don't remember which one it was. Or you have an other option which is to download JBL CONNECT on app store and update the Flip 5 with it, then you will have an option to remove the startup sound. But at that moment my smartphone wasn't smart enough to use the app so i asked to the support and manage to turn off this sound. I should have reply to my own question here to keep a track of how to do it. :/ One thing is sure is that it's not bluetooth + vol down (low bass mode) or the volume up + play/ pause (hard reset). ^^

On mine the volume is louder one below max volume. If that's what you mean

@@matrihamiltonjr2230 hi. Thankz for answer. The volume is loud.volume is ok. But the bass decrease when charge 4 is at volume maximum. I have 2xcharge 4. How is the bass with the xtreme at maximum volume?

@@carlosvarela5367 I got my extreme 2 around 3 days ago but so far it's about the same as my flip 4 inside at home, but I can tell outside or a bigger the extreme will carry the sound further than the flip

Vikas Sharma what service button?

like computers need an operating system, those speakers have a tiny computer in them. they just call it firmware. you don’t have to update.

@@mygiguser well you're just a wealth of knowledge.....thank you very much for the info🤙
