Minirigs vs JBL Xtreme 3 - outdoors

oluvsgadgets post Minirigs vs JBL Xtreme 3 - outdoors from patreon

Unfortunately I am still having issues with some occasional static hiss for my outdoor recordings. I tried to apply some slight noise reduction to make it less apparent but the noise reduction effects were too noticeable during some parts, therefore I completely left it without any additional processing. 

I couldn'...

Tribit Stormbox Micro & Bose Soundlink Micro taken out for a walk

oluvsgadgets post Tribit Stormbox Micro & Bose Soundlink Micro taken out for a walk from patreon

I shot this because my friend claimed that his Tribit Stormbox Micro sounds much worse than the Bose Soundlink Micro, therefore I wanted to try them again side by side in a real world scenario. 

Just got the info from Tribit about an upcoming deal for the Stormbox Micro:

original Price:$49.99, deal Price: $...

VIFA Helsinki, JBL Xtreme 3 & Sony SRS-XB43 - outdoor soundcheck

oluvsgadgets post VIFA Helsinki, JBL Xtreme 3 & Sony SRS-XB43 - outdoor soundcheck from patreon

I was curious if the vintage VIFA "Helstinki" had any chance against JBL's and Sony's most recent releases and headed out to try it out by mysself. 

Also trying out my new DJI Pocket 2 to see if it's suitable for my 1st person type of videos.

Anker Soundcore Rave Neo vs JBL Xtreme 3

oluvsgadgets post Anker Soundcore Rave Neo vs JBL Xtreme 3 from patreon

Before returning the JBL Xtreme 3 I went out again to make some further videos and also practice with my new DJI Pocket 2.

No playlist this time as I used some edited tracks with most of them being not available on Apple Music.

A visit at Mediamarkt

oluvsgadgets post A visit at Mediamarkt from patreon

Today I went to my local Mediamarkt store to ask for a JBL Xtreme 3 loaner but they haven’t got any yet. Also online there are hardly any stores which have them in stock, therefore my plan to compare a Minirig 2.1 system against 2 Xtreme 3 was scotched.

But I had the chance to try out the Sony SRS-XB33 and compare it ...

oluvsgadgets post Minirigs vs JBL Xtreme 3 from patreon

I made a bold claim that a Minirig 2.1 setup can compete against 2 JBL Xtreme 3. I am thinking of driving to the Mediamarkt and borrow a 2nd Xtreme 3 because today is the last day before our new lockdown, besides I already prepared my Xtreme 3 for return. 

I could maybe shoot a quick video today and wanted to ask y...

Sony SRS-XB43 - frequency response measurements

oluvsgadgets post Sony SRS-XB43 - frequency response measurements from patreon

The Sony SRS-XB43 measures quite natural with some dynamic bass boost for low levels and also some stronger treble boost with peaks at 9 and 11 khz, which makes treble appear quite rough and grainy, especially as there is a strong drop above 11khz which results in lack of details and resolution. I am not sure if the tweeters ...

Aiwa Exos-3 vs JBL Xtreme 3

oluvsgadgets post Aiwa Exos-3 vs JBL Xtreme 3 from patreon

I got a  new first firmware from Aiwa for the Exos-3 which still doesn't have the 3dB boost mode included, thus I made the outdoor comparison still with the old version and updated afterwards for the indoor comparison. I think after the update it sounds also better at high levels, but I need to wait until the final versi...

My best video ever yet...

oluvsgadgets post My best video ever yet... from patreon

I shot some videos during our holidays and I like this one by far most.

I did this walkthrough twice as I was so impressed by the setting. First one was shot with GoPro's own Hypersmooth but it didn't turn out that great, so I ran down again and shot another walk with Reelsteady which you can see here. I tried to avoid ...

JBL Xtreme 3 - frequency response measurements

oluvsgadgets post JBL Xtreme 3 - frequency response measurements from patreon

I managed to do some quick outdoor measurements of the Xtreme 3, despite some slight wind. As usual measured elevated at around 1.5m from 50cm exactly on axis.

The thick line is half volume, bass reduction already starts 2 steps above that and becomes pretty obvious at maximum volume. No bass boost for low levels, and t...

For those interested what audio equipment I took on our holidays, I kept it rather modest and simple.

I have just the Tribit MaxSound Plus as portable speaker, anything bigger would have been overkill. I like the Tribit because of its neutral tuning and cheap price, in case it brakes it won’t be a big loss and I can a...
