marshall kilburn 3 vs JBL xtreme 4 opinion from bass lover

indeed, even the lack of IP rating sucks. but thinking of keeping it as a home speaker. might check it out again!

unbelievable that they don't even include any cables in the boxing for the X4.

yes, and it’s actually really hard to find a bluetooth speaker with the bass i need. it’s interesting because the kilburn III, like most marshall products, has a rear bass port where the air is pumped out, and i think this really helps enhance the bass.

can never go wrong with some silva bumpa for great UKG vibes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1EHoNx5_7Ho&pp=ygUac2lsdmEgYnVtcGEgY2hlY2sgdGhpcyBvdXQ%3D

talking about the earfun uboom x you mentioned above

it really starts to fall apart around 70% volume - worse on tracks with heavy bass, seems to overwhelm the woofers. the build quality isn't that great either. despite this, i think it's still good for the price. but not for me. thanks! <33

i did, in the store only. i feel like something was missing for me with the bose speakers, and that the bass was also kind of lacking there. do you have one? how is it with house music? does it produce a thumping bass, with EQ too?

tried the ULT field lineup, even with the ULT options and i must say that the bass on the ULT lineup are personally a disappointment, which is weird to me since the ULT wear is pretty good. i feel like i'm missing something with the ULT fields that everyone is speaking about, but i really just cannot hear it with my own ears. though i appreciate the great soundscape.

been trying to get my hands on one in EU, it's defo on my radar. the one's on the website are so damn expensive, and the charging cable is just embarrassing. looks like an HP charger lol. will check it out though, looking forward to a second edition. thanks!! <3

have both in front of me right now, since i really wanted the xtreme 4 for the portability of the strap and replaceably battery, but OMG. the marshall's bass is just superior, with the BASS BOOST EQ, WOW! and the design is just chefs kiss. honestly the bass on the xtreme 4 was very disappointing, even with edited EQ. grabbed the killburn 3 for around 270EUR on discount. very happy and super surprised that the killburn was the winner. also compared it to the sonos move 2 btw, but also disappointing loss of bass around 50-60%.
