"A good robovac is a life changer. Even a $350 basic S8. It is a great place to start. ... I promise you that you will not be disappointed by a basic S8. It will change your life even if it can't fit under every piece of furniture you own. ... My two S8s just finished vacuuming our entire house in about 46 minutes. ... While my floors were being cleaned, I sat comfortably on our patio in the cool shade with a slight breeze and composed my far too long response to you while sipping a diet soda and relaxing. ... I will have to spend about four minutes maintaining my two S8s. This will be my entire contribution to my home floor cleaning effort for today. Four minutes!"
"Like 500$ these robots are currently the steal of the century ... You can get a mova p10 pro ultra (cannot remove its mops), equivalent to the l40/x40 for 500$ after a discount code"
"I got the Q5 Pro for $139. ... costs $450 less than what I paid for the S6 ... it is the best value option out there imo."

"If you want portable that you can take outdoors and get wet, check out the Bose Soundlink Max and Soundlink Flex. I have the flex and take it paddleboarding and camping and love it! Bonus: it floats!"
"they are by far the loudest small size speakers"
"The 4 sounds phenomenal given it's size - if I put it next to my hifi speakers you wouldn't realise that the sound was coming from that little cylinder rather than the hifi"

"Literally bombproof! ... Vermont winters/rain subzero temperatures!"
"the IPX7 rating makes it perfect for wet environments like the shower."
"Mine has been stepped on, played with by my sheep, dropped, rained on, dunked in water, beat on by ducks and geese, you name it. Still works great."

"it sounds fucking amazing. ... I was blown away at Best Buy. I thought this was fake somehow like there is no way this thing is producing that bass and that level. ... The speaker is phenomenal. ... At first it was almost too bass heavy; but after an hour or two of playtime it broke in and the mids came alive, without loosing any bass. ... it still sounds fucking incredible."
"the Bose sounds terrific for pretty much every genre I've hit it with, including Bass-heavy EDM."
"The EQ is the biggest upgrade in my opinion, it really fixes the highs and mids especially in the standing position where the old flex lacks crisp."

"I was very impressed by its power and clarity."
"I bought two of the soundcore motion 300's so I could pair them for stereo listening and they're really fantastic."
"Two soundcore motion 300 in stereo mode with ldac and some Hifi audio source is the way to go if you are on a budget (right now they go for 50$ as an early amazon prime deal) and your phone supports ldac."

"The bass is slow and sludgy on the Cadenza. ... They can't keep up with faster tracks. ... If you're listening to metal, prog, acid jazz, etc... then you may have some issues with that. ... Fast, heavyhitting techno? Not with these."
"I personally felt the bass was pretty anemic on it and I'm not a bass-head. ... Less bass than the ER2xr, Blessing 2, Blessing 2 Dusk, IE 200 etc. ... Very thin sounding. ... They have less bass than the Moondrop Blessing 2. ... They have less bass than the Etymotic ER2xr. ... They have less bass than the Sennheiser IE200. ... Just not enough bass and I"m no bass-head."
"The subwoofer is weak and almost non existent."

"I'm not a fan of Harman Target’s midrange presentation. It sounds both shouty and thin, whether for male or female vocals. ... The 200Hz bass tuck, combined with the elevation in the 3-5kHz range, makes it annoying to listen to. ... SM4, however, is the complete opposite of my taste, tuned to sound cleaner and analytical in the midrange. ... But the 200–300Hz dip is still an issue, making everything sound thin."
"Everything sounded very artificial ... I didn't like the tone at all ... the notes lacked weight and it was too bright ... I tried them on a Fiio K5 Pro Ess and on a Kiwi Ears Allegro Mini dac dongle and the result was equally disappointing in both cases."
"I dont like the supermix 4 because of its piezoelectric transducer. ... You can immediately hear when it sets in and it ruins the entire mix."
It seems that 10 out of 40,000,000 have had an issue. Watch out. :D buy a lotto ticket or a flip, or a plane ticket, same chances
r/JBL • I thought about buying charge 6 but I'm really scared after seeing few posts.. ->Yeah, realistically that isn't going to happen, replacing 10 speakers with 1-3 is tough as it is, much less when those 10 speakers were designed for the space they are in and those 1-3 are jammed into an enclosure with the amp and battery in a single unit... I mean the closest you will get is a one of the big JBL Party Boxes which honestly isn't very portable at like 75 pounds and 45 inches tall, not to mention they run a grand or so. If you just want decent sound quality -AND- portability the JBL Flip, Charge, or even the Extreme series are pretty decent, but for high end quality you are going to be going well over the $500 mark... KEF, Bowers & Wilkens, Sonos, etc. And Bose... Yeah, I am not a huge fan... I would take the Infinity system in my Hyundai over it in a heartbeat for sound quality.
r/Corvette • I might be asking in the wrong sub, but can anyone recommend a good portable Bluetooth speaker as good as C7 Bose speakers ->Cu banii aia îți cumperi un jbl flip de black Friday acum și ai calitate. Și la 150 de euro găsești jbl charge care deja rupe
r/Aliexpress • Best bluetooth speaker? ->i dont dislike anything, i was just giving a benchmark for the kind of size i wanted. i think a while ago ichad a flip 4 and there wasnt much you could do in the app, but i havent had a speaker for quite some time. so maybe theres some new stuff i havent checked out. would you reccomend a flip?
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Best tiny bluetooth speaker ->I'm like your dad with the old vintage system from my college days. I cherish them, but I also bought into the JBL Flip environment and don't regret it one bit. Do it and buy two to pair. Amazing sound.
r/JBL • Should I buy a flip 7? ->JBL Flip. Sounds super good! 👍🏻 Used to be much much cheaper but price has gotten up these years
r/BuyItForLife • What's the best quality bluetooth speaker you've ever tried? ->The JBL flip is louder and has better overall sound quality.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Beats Pill, bad lmao ->JBL Charge is a good pick, or the Flip series if you're more concerned about size, although they are both pretty compact. Soundcore Motion Boom is a good choice as well, however it's a bit more awkwardly shaped if you're trying to fit it in a bag.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Bluetooth speaker for beach ->In 2025, you're not getting something that last years. To put on perspective I still daily drive a JBL Charge 1. And prefer it over my Flip 4 that's battery decided to kick the bucket after 3 years and had to replace 2x and my brother's Flip 6. There's even the Xtreme 4 still having battery issues. You want something to last get an older speaker find a way to replace the battery with Lithium Solid State batteries and add fans and Sensitive speakers. In short DIY as if a part breaks then you can replace that part.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Best long lasting Bluetooth speaker for karaoke nights with friends? ->JBL Flip 4 JBL Xtreme 3 SONY Ult Field 7 The performance overall in each one, has been more than satisfactory.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • What's the Best Bluetooth Speaker to Buy in 2025? (Price, Sound, Battery) ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
