soundcore - Motion Boom

I can only speak for owning mostly soundcore gear and its done me super well. $80 ish motion+ still slaps years later with EQ bass is better than my friends pricier speakers indoor and outdoor sofar. I has good projection and a wide directionally. I haven't experience 180° (or 360°) speakers. Also a big fan of soundcore boom 1 and boom 2. Biased fan boy I've only heard 1 tribit speaker years ago that was much smaller and I didn't get to fiddle with EQ for whatever reason

I have Motion Boom, the only way I'd hike with it would be if was strapped to my back. No way I'd use the strap it comes with. Not real heavy, but it's basically a hard plastic box and if it's moving around it will be a pain.

I fully understand your perspective. I own a Motion Boom myself and I had the same thing, until I bought my Luna which impressed me a good amount and the Tribit Stormbox Micro 2 which blew me away and did give me that excitement the boom also gave me upon purchase. The earfun Uboom L and Uboom X are pretty unbeatable for the price for sure, I simply just never considered the Uboom L. I will maybe in the future check it out tho, I am really curious.

Get a motion boom or if you have a Costco account, the motion boom 2 is on sale there for $70

Hello all. After 3+ years of 60+ hours of weekly use at work, my W KING (I think D8? Chunky green fella with nylon carry strap) finally crapped out. After hearing great stuff about it, I bought a soundcore boom 1! ...without checking to see if it had a 3.5mm input. Sadly I'm in a warehouse in which I need to carry my phone around with me for scanning sometimes dozens or hundreds of feet away from our PC station so it's not feasible to play things off my mobile device. Instead I'd been running the 3.5mm connection into our PC and playing local radio, sirius, di fm, etc. off a background browser window. I'll likely keep the soundcore for use at home & the like, but our warehouse PC is a shitty old dell optiplex with zero bluetooth and I'd sooner rather look for a combo BT/3.5mm speaker than buy a dongle and hope the work PC restrictions don't mess with any auto installed drivers it'll have. And preferably something 30-40W or higher. Currently using an old 10 or 15W lil portable (tautonics?) guy as a fill in and while it does the trick when I'm close and directly in the line of audial fire, it's pretty much imperceivable at a distance and/or around corners. As in, I'll think it was turned off because I'm hearing nothing. I don't mind if details are lost at a distance but I'd like to hear *something* when out and about from the desk area. Many thanks in advance. I'd been browsing on amazon and I'm finding a lot more BT speakers without 3.5mm support than I'd seen when I got my W KING, and it was getting a bit overwhelming especially after coming across a couple listings with clearly copy/pasted descriptions saying something about 3.5mm but the item photos and parts breakdown showing there isn't one at all :/

Tribit Stormbox Micro 2 decent for the size and weight. I use one on the bike sometimes. .6lbs. Earfun uboom L and the JBL Flip are good soda can size speakers. Both are under 2lbs. Of the speakers you have in mind I would go for the 2.1lb JB charge 6 over the heavy suckers. The Soundcore Moton Boom 2 Is a good & relatively lightweight camping speaker if you want bass. Not too fancy or expensive. 3.6lbs. That is the heaviest speaker I would want to hike with.

Get a bigger speaker if you want "sub bass". I have a Motion + and it is great for it's size but not going to thump any sub woofer frequencies. The Soundcore Motion Boom/Select Pro put out much better bass. (I have a Mifa Wildbox that is very similar the soundcore Motion Boom in bass output). Had a few of the Soundcore Booms and they had great bass but it did not extend into the sub-bass region. Eons ago I had a compact Doss XL that Oluv was a big fan of and it had amazing low bass for the size but developed some rattles at high output and now living at work. I had heavyass Tribit Blast that could really rumble but at 12lbs was not that "portable". (Almost too much bass indoors !) Gave the Tribit Blast to a friend and going to try out the newer & cheaper and lighter Earfun Uboom X. Might want to check out the Harmon Kardon Studio speakers if you like the HIFI sound and from my memory did a grat job with sub-bass. I never grabbed a Uboom L because I had Motion + but I think most reviewers thought the bass was better and more extended on the U-boom L.

You cant beat the og motion boom for size and bass. You need to source an og though, the later models don't have the same deep bass sound.

And check out the variants of that, which will have the same. The boom plus the Boom 2 the boom 2 plus, all of their different price size sound quality volume variances, all pretty damn good and depend upon what matters to you the most

Hello, the Soundcore Motion is a great value option with excellent sound quality and aptX support, ideal for music production. The X600 and Boom Plus are also solid choices for immersive sound. Higher wattage (W) means louder volume, while higher kHz improves sound detail, but balance matters for overall quality
