"Run them in TWS, tweak the eq a bit with the app and you'll be astonished at what $200 can get you in terms of portable sound."
"Ordered it from aliexpress using the earlybird code, making it a 120 dollar purchase. I had second thoughts about getting it after ordering it, but after a few days with it, i definitely think it was worth it. ... But it does have some cheapness to it when it comes to design and sound quality, but it delivers way more than it's price for sure!! ... My conclusion is mostly positive, this speakers earned it's place next to the boom 2, xtreme 4 and bose soundlink max, having advantages and disadvantages over them. ... Thanks mate, tribit definitely stands out especially in terms of value ... Yea i think it's definitely worth it"
"For $100, the Lava is a phenomenal value."

"The Lava's use case for me is just perfect, and I like the style and sound...after setting up a few different flavors of EQ for indoors and outdoors, and musical styles."
"EQ settings in app can make it rival speakers that are twice as expensive."
"Conclusion , better than 1.5.4 because it's extremely annoying when you've chosen a preset EQ and when you switch to custom your ears fly off because the volume was much higher there."

"I feel the bass is abit overpowering especially indoors"
"So much bass, overpowering bass at low volumes making it muffled."
"Is that even when you're going 0 on bass, there's still deep bass somehow, and still enough to be too much"

"I noticed that the speaker starts to generate noise at very low volumes. At volumes between 5 and 20%, or when transitioning from a louder to a quieter section, a constant background noise can be heard. Example: Song: Pink Floyd - Echoes"

"When changing the volume (louder or quieter), the music playback stutters briefly, similar to a slight dropout. ... The same issue occurred when I changed the equalizer while a song was playing."
I have the tribit one, its bang for buck speakers. First got the GO and then the Plus 2 and now even got the lava.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Best Bluetooth speaker under 5k INR ->Danke Man! Das war genau das, was ich hören musste. Ich suche schon so lang nach etwas um draußen gut Techno zu hören. Da sind die Tiefbässe sehr wichtig. Habe jetzt gerade 2 für Lava's für zusammen 200€ geholt. Go Tribit
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Tribit stormbox lava - impression ->I got a Lava from them and I like it. For the price, it's very good. Sound is extremely muddy out of the box, but EQ settings in app can make it rival speakers that are twice as expensive. The bass is incredibly strong. My only 2 complaints are A: Having to mess with EQ just for acceptable quality. B: you need 2 of them for a "complete" sound. All in all, I'm very happy with my purchase. Just get annoyed trying to find the perfect EQ
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Are Tribit speakers actually worth it compared to bigger brands ->Under 9k best buy is Tribit stormbox lava, under 5k it’s Tribit x sound plus 2
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Speakers under 5k INR ->I have done the comparison. It’s very different.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Speakers under 5k INR ->For the beach, the Tribit Stormbox Lava is perfect it's fully waterproof, has great bass, and the 360-degree sound is ideal for a group sitting around it
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Looking to buy a portable bluetooth speaker for trips to the beach. ->I'd say if u like bass and need a speaker that can go loud, this is probably the speaker for you. But I feel the bass is abit overpowering especially indoors, but it all can be tuned in software
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Tribit stormbox lava - impression ->I've been playing around with this speaker a bit and discovered some issues with firmware 1.4.3 and 1.4.8. 1) I noticed that the speaker starts to generate noise at very low volumes. At volumes between 5 and 20%, or when transitioning from a louder to a quieter section, a constant background noise can be heard. Example: Song: Pink Floyd - Echoes 2) When changing the volume (louder or quieter), the music playback stutters briefly, similar to a slight dropout. The same issue occurred when I changed the equalizer while a song was playing. 3) I also noticed that the tweeters crackle very slightly in some songs with high notes and vocals. It's really only very slightly noticeable. I used the Jazz EQ, and it's only noticeable at higher volumes (approx. 70-80%). I haven't tested it at volumes above 70%. Example: Song: Fleetwood Mac - Little Lies Extended Version 2017 4) In XBass/XBass Off mode, the mids and highs seem slightly muffled at any volume and sound a bit duller, not as crisp as with the Jazz EQ. The Jazz EQ sounds best with the preset EQs in firmware 1.4.8. 5) The speaker has a power-saving mode when the battery is below 40%. Volume and bass levels seem to change at 40%. ----------------------------------------------------------- Now impressions to firmware 1.5.4 to point 1) --> almost resolved with firmware 1.5.4 (only noticeable very minimally upon closer listening) to point 2) --> Almost fixed with firmware 1.5.4 (the buzzing has disappeared, but with battery levels below 50%, a faint crackling sound can now be heard when changing the volume, as well as sometimes when changing the equalizer during a song.) to point 3) --> no problem verified, seems fixed to point 4) --> in XBass/XBass Off mode, the sound changed completly. All predefined EQs are downscaled and dont sound good. Custom EQ sound is similar/same as before in relation to version 1.4.8 ----------------------------------------------------------- current conclusion: Otherwise the speaker plays well, the sound could be a bit more neutral and also could have a more room-filling sound across all levels. However, this is a high-level complaint. For the price, the speaker produces good sound (this isn't an audiophile statement) and is enjoyable to use. So, aside from a few teething issues, there's not much to complain about. I hope tribit will fix the issues soon.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Tribit stormbox lava - impression ->Small impression Update for version 1.5.5 1) I could verify that the sound seems quieter than before with a custom equalizer. In older firmwares it was louder until 1.5.4. then the sound only of the preset /standard (xbass, rock, Jazz, etc...) equalizer settings changed to a quieter sounding by this frmware. Now the sound of the custom equalizer seems also be quieter, same level as the presets equalizer. 2) new preset equalizer : Tradition Conclusion , better than 1.5.4 because it's extremely annoying when you've chosen a preset EQ and when you switch to custom your ears fly off because the volume was much higher there.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Tribit stormbox lava - impression ->I got the lava today. Yes, boosted so it is not for everyone and get tire for long hours play. Is cheap for usd90 but feel a 2.3kg speaker shd do better than this.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Tribit stormbox lava - impression ->Tribit Lava is turning out to be a winner.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Best Bluetooth speakers available under $200? JBL vs Tribit vs Bose ->I’ve been using the Tribit StormBox Lava I would say insane sound quality and crazy battery life, easily rivals Bose or JBL for less
