hello and welcome 2016 was a great year with lots of great new portable speaker releases like the hammock I'll go and play dolly catch fifa Oslo Bengal dachshund do play one and ultimate is roll 2n but I would like to find the very best one and after having spent really lots of hours comparing listening to lots of speakers I think that the very best one is they FIFA Oslo yeah we've heard the Harman Kardon go and play against some others because larger speakers like the aya XS 9 also they do play a six and it felt really well it sounded better than most of these but I think the FIFA Oslo Saltz even better yeah it's not a cheap speaker yeah it's one of the most expensive ones currently 500 euros or $550 I think but it's louder than the Harman Kardon play it has a much more high fight tuning doesn't have this extreme bass thump which is of course nice for house and hip hop and so on but for normal music listening that FIFA Oslo definitely does a much better job so the footprint you can see is much smaller you can really put it into some shelf or some small place why the Harman Kardon being even one kilogram heavier if it fits into a bag it will rather occupy nearly the entire space while the thief also is just about this big as a larger dictionary so let's have a more detailed look at it maybe you remember some months ago I already presented the ffs in case the best portable compact bluetooth speaker the FIFA was like everything that if I think is just bigger better stronger yeah many complained about the more feminine look of the previous inky which looks like a female handbag so v Oslo let's take it as a male version yeah just like the FIFA I think it has two different tunings neutral which measures pretty flat and late night which gives you a little bit of a bass and treble boost compared against a go and play you can see that this one has a more bass boost but at the same time there is some inconsistency with treble with lots of hills and dips so overall the Fedora is definitely the more musical and natural frequency response regardless if played at neutral or late night it should also appeal more to real audio files and music lovers and I thought I will demonstrate you the difference in sound again we already heard it against the hammer : go and play but I thought we'll do this again as the first unit ahead was not quite representative back buffer had some problem and produced some fatty noise this is my own unit that I bought which is perfect and place clean even at maximum and as always I will be using a head cam and binaural microphones and usually listen with headphones you will get much better results when listening for crappy headphones then when listening for real studio monitors therefore please put up your headphones and let's check them out if you fall is set to late night mode in order to make them more comparable and first I will play some more jazzy stuff as I don't think that real audiophile - lovers really would like me to play Eminem or Skrillex but later on will also play some more electronica music also crank them to maximum to see which one is louder I will start with a few false offers so please have a listen in our track as you can see volume is set for about half football you something else or another trick Oh you my love I'm do most anything you sweet baby I'll do most anything Thunder and I hope you feel the same way myself he gave me milk yeah maybe you can hear that the hammer Colin can play sounds a little bit more diffuse then he falls la has much more clarity the bass doesn't have this extreme thump but we will notice with the next track that the bass is much more even so all bass notes are more less with the same loudness while with the Harman Kardon go and play you will hear that some particular notes are louder so let's have a listen again P Fausto first you can hear it some notes are pushed much more forward default again maybe some other trick you yeah yeah the stronger based thump of the hammer : gunplay was also quite noticeable let's try now track it's for something else and with not house music without this space hump the hammer Cardinal not sounding a bit strange maybe I will pay german volk a bit lower and you will notice that the fee files law still sounds pretty nicely full-bodied while the Harman Kardon currently doesn't really shine that much at low level so for rather low-level listening the chief also definitely is the better choice this starts to solidly bikini even a pure play a one sounds more more full-bodied and they're going play at these levels let's increase volume again I will try to match them more less and maybe some kind of rock back it's time to increase volume lower their complaint yeah and I will place them more towards the wall or what's the TV set here and it's time to switch their fifa Oslo to neutral mode in order to avoid distortion at higher levels I will turn v Oslo to neutral mode node and crank them both to maximum I will start again with the fee for slot and the same track so increasing volume to maximum and pick one place well quickly another trick quickly you this really acquired on her hooker most definitely you okay this stops getting ready pemmican much too strong yeah dance track both shall not distort but the people specifically louder yeah I think you could hear it the v4 slope being smaller and lighter than the go and play picked similar punch was even louder with no dynamic compression no Distortion so is it the perfect portable speaker well there is still lots of room for improvement for example battery life is not that great but it's not great on both both will die after around 2 hours at maximum at moderate levels I got around 10 hours which is still ok but there is hardly any stereo separation also there are no tweeters so treble dispersion is a little bit directional but it's still one of the greatest because I've heard you really get the sound that was recorded with no edit effects or fake boost or something I really love it also because it's so small it's way smaller and more compact than the Harman Kardon complain more in a class of a JBL extreme but simply sounding much much better yeah of course quality has its price it's not a cheap speaker but maybe you can find some discount ones and if you find it reduced yeah grab it it's definitely worth it I really love it and it's my favorite speaker I can only talk of myself for me it's the best speaker 2016 but let's see what 2017 will bring until then yeah stay tuned have a nice time and bye bye
