I shot this a while back but there was no opportunity to post it until now.
I really liked the Jambox back then, although I preferred the FoxL, you can hear the difference in one of my very first videos on YouTube:

Recorded with iPhone and AMBEO headset. I would like to edit the audio at home to correct the frequency response of the mics and upload this video in 4K to my binaural channel.
Update: here the equalized version in 4K: https:...

I may post some short videos directly from my iPhone. I also took my camera with me but would need to edit those when we are back home.

Originally I had shot this video as my last before leaving for holidays but I still wanted to cover the AAC issues of the WF-1000XM4 and decided to shoot that video as well as I decided to return it and wouldn’t have any opportunity to do further videos with it after our return from holidays. <...

The main reason I didn’t keep the Sony were the AAC artefacts hearable when streamed from iOS. The JBL Club Pro+ I reviewed recently had even stronger issues.
I heard exactly the same problems from the Earfun Free Pro before I started to work on the OE version. My premise was that AAC was...

I wanted to try the Audio Pro P5 in a real life situation during a walk with our dogs where I usually would use the Sonos Roam or formerly the Tribit Stormbox Micro strapped to my backpack.
Unfortunately I didn’t have the Tribit with me but took the Sonos and the Anker Soundcore Motion+ t...

After having listened to the recording before and after, I would even say that the old firmware sounded more convincing. The bass was more impactful and lower treble was not as harsh, I wonder what the engineers are hearing...

I just got a new firmware for the Tribit Stormbox Pro which I would like to install and compare to the previous one together with you. But as it will take a while to upload the video I already wanted to announce the give away now as it's the last day in June.
The unit is brand new, I ...

I got the Jaybird Vista 2 yesterday. I bought it based on a comment on Youtube and as I liked the X3 and X4 which thanks to the app and the parametric EQ could be tuned quite nicely I wanted to try my luck with the Vista 2.
Instead of wasting my time shooting a full video I decided to just ...

Out of these I would only recommend the Sony, if you want to spend that much money or don't like the Earfun for some reason. With some slight EQ adjustment through the Sony app the Sony can sound quite similar to the Earfun although I still perceive the Earfun Free Pro OE as smoother sounding. Th...

I must have switched the camera to timelapse mode by accident without noticing, thus the video became more like a stop motion as I simply slowed it down by 10%.
I could have shot another take today and pretend to unbox it again, but it wouldn't be spontaneous and would take even longer to u...

Unboxing video coming soon.
First impressions: ok but no game changer. Bass is a bit boomy while lacking upper treble. Pretty loud but pushes mids and treble a lot, remains still quite honest and dynamic sounding up to maximum.
For my taste too little air on top while too much upper b...

Took these speakers out for a walk and wanted to hear if the Anker SoundCore Boost can keep up with the Motion+ to some degree and how the vintage JBL Flip 4 would fit in here.
The only fact I wouldn't recommend it as best overall portable speaker in this class are the problems at low level...

There will be some Inear reviews coming up as I am expecting several models to arrive. The Moondrop Sparks should be provided to me by Apos Audio but not sure when it will arrive. I ordered the Sony WF-1000XM4 some days ago but it’s not yet in stock and will only be delivered by next week proba...

I found my old Flip 4 in the cellar and thought it may be interesting to hear how it compares against the recent Sonos Roam especially for casual listening outdoors. I am not sure the Flip 5 sounds that much better than the Flip 4, because when I had the chance to compare both in a store I was no...

I was contacted by Earfun yesterday and they told me that they decided to start another pre-sale of the Earfun Free Pro Oluv's edition, which came quite surprising to me as before they always kept telling me they were unsure if there would ever be another run.
Thus for all those still inter...

Finally the new upgraded SoundCore Boost has arrived. It could easily become the class leader in this category. The sound is very powerful and remains really impressive up to highest levels without falling apart or becoming harsh or somehow thin.
Unfortunately it seems to suffer from exactl...

I should maybe do an own series of more vintage stuff. Unfortunately I don't have that many of these older speakers, as all of them were really crappy.

I already got this headphone for a review long ago thus felt obliged to finally make a review about it, especially as the sound engineer who tuned it claimed to have used the Meze Emyprean (the best sounding headphone on earth according to him) as reference and thought it could be interesting to ...

Was trying to shoot something with the Insta360 Go2 which seems to have some issues, as I didn't manage a single take from the beginning to the end becasue the camera always stopped recording on its own for no obvious reason. Unfortunately they don't let me to return it, because "there are no iss...

I finally managed to do some measurements of the Beolit 20 outdoors from a distance of 50cm as usual. All measurements were done at the same volume level of around 2/3. I didn't notice any dynamic bass boost for low levels, but as the bass is already so boosted to begin with it doesn't really nee...

On the other hand I am getting mixed feedback ...

My final take on the Beolit 20, compared to the Fugoo XL, Audio Pro C3 and VIFA Helsinki.
I will try preparing some measurements next if the weather allows it.

I already shot a 3rd video for the Beolit, but didn't manage to edit it yet. Therefore I would like to post this video about the Meze Emyprean first, comparing it to the Sennheiser HD800S and Focal Elex. The Elex unit used here is the latest replacement I got for my defective one. I think it soun...

My first video with the Beolit 20. It became quite windy after I started, sorry for this.
I will shoot another video outdoors at high levels and one at home to hear how the speaker performs in different conditions.
