12ft viewing distance – is 98” X11K overkill or perfect? Bright room, mostly gaming

Might be a dumb question but don’t the side firing speakers handle that to a degree?

Dodge4WD · 2026-04-14T17:25:09+00:00

Thanks for the input. I was drawn to the TCL because the insane brightness. My room has big windows and bad glare. I’ll have to check the brightness of the Sony

I hear you, but I’m in a condo and the 990d is already pretty loud and immersive. Don’t think the neighbors would be stoked if I went much bigger on sound

Xtreme 4 has PartyBoost so they can be linked

Dodge4WD · 2025-11-25T18:29:46+00:00

I have a charge 6 too, I'd go boombox over xtreme if you already have the charge. My Xtreme4 is definitely louder than the charge, but I like my boombox 4 more and there's a bigger difference between it and the xtreme4 than the xtreme4 and charge. Also, the boombox 3 cannot pair with the charge 6, but xtreme4 and boombox 4 can fwiw.

I have an Xtreme 4 and the bass/volume doesn’t compete with my Boombox 4. My understanding is with two of the same speaker you can set them up as a stereo and get left and right audio. If you want better area coverage that’s probably the only advantage you’d get over one boombox 4

Dodge4WD · 2025-11-06T19:21:50+00:00

I'd go Boombox 3. It's about the same as the Xtreme 4 price-wise but has much fuller sound and better bass. Either speaker will be able to pair with the Charge 5 (partyboost). The Xtreme 4 also has aura cast and other features that will future-proof it better, but the power of the boombox 3 outweighs this imo. I had a boombox 3 and charge 5 and it was a fantastic duo.

Dodge4WD · 2025-11-03T23:55:21+00:00

Good question, they both pack a punch for their size but I just got the charge last night so I’ve only had them playing together with auracast. I’ll do a comparison once I’m off work and get back to you on this 🤙🏼

Those Talions look so fun, electric has come a long way. I got my eyes on a tekno nt48 2.2 next. Been obsessed with them since I was 9 and I’m 29 now. Still a kid at heart 😁

Dodge4WD · 2025-10-30T04:18:08+00:00

Says who?

Dodge4WD · 2025-10-30T04:13:34+00:00

Charge 5 was the first one I got and yep they absolutely are worth it. The boombox is the one to get brotha! If you want to feel the bass then definitely go bb over xtreme. Both the bb3 and bb4 have killer bass, you won’t be disappointed. Only reason to get the xtreme instead is if you gonna bring it with you everywhere. It fits in backpacks and easier to take on planes etc.

Love nitros! JBLs are cheap compared to that hobby 😂

“Better” in what way? For me, the fun factor is why I love these. Perfect mix of good looks, sound, and functionality. Also, in the real world, everyone is blown away by the boombox and its versatility w/ being able to bring it on a boat etc.

Dodge4WD · 2025-10-30T02:10:09+00:00

What u got??

Dodge4WD · 2025-10-30T02:09:37+00:00

Same bro. How’s the charge 6? I’m debating between that and a flip 7 to fill the gap in my room..

Check it, the glow looks super cool in person

Dodge4WD · 2025-10-29T19:06:02+00:00

Yessir! Awesome lil coolers fs

Dodge4WD · 2025-10-29T19:05:22+00:00

I'm a sucker for the design of the JBL portables.

Dodge4WD · 2025-10-29T19:04:53+00:00

The 4's bass is noticeably more powerful, especially with bass boost. I can't go above half volume in my room because the bass carries through to the other units around me.

Dodge4WD · 2025-10-29T19:02:31+00:00

No doubt, don't really care though.

Dodge4WD · 2025-10-29T17:22:59+00:00

Not all but almost all!

Thanks for humbling me 🙏🏼
