hi guys today we are going to take a look at the new taotronics pulse x I got interested in this one because we're looking for develop one I noticed it was sold by a company called Sun Valley tech they obviously also distribute the pulse X here it goes for $36 so more a low-budget speaker probably comparable to the witan panca we've heard before this calls for 43 and the anchor sound cross-product cell which calls for 60 I was not that impressed with this to the truth but when looking at all the raving reviews of this one you can see most of them are 5 or 4 stars only very few 3 star no single 2 or 1 star review so it looks really promising therefore I thought we will check it out have a look inside do some short and quick unboxing and later on we'll compare it against some other speakers yes technology enhances life that's true indeed here is the speaker not too heavy yeah design is really really smooth and simple but has great lines just a box with rounded corners here or edges yeah you can see maybe I'm not sure if it's visible there are two drivers yeah at the back you can see maybe a huge passive radiator so each foot maybe pack some punch what else is inside yeah just some wires charging is done from a microUSB obviously and yeah what else probably a manual yeah so nothing interesting no charging lid but well for thirty five for six dollars let's to expect of course we would like to know how it sounds therefore I'm using binaural microphones you should listen with headphones and let's check out some tunes yeah nice welcome tone not too loud let's see if it connects yeah and we can check out a first tune from soul persona so let's have a listen the volume is not synced with with knife and so we have to keep it at maximum to have the entire volume range here and I think it sounds pretty solid they obviously know dynamic place post so at lower levels maybe a little bit tinny but still sounds pretty decent the depressive way that the bags definitely contributes the sound but I think this is more a speaker that likes it closer to the wall so let's listen now yeah I think it becomes more punchy we another trick you can definitely feel the punch of the bass drum here pretty impressive I will turn it slightly higher this is maximum maybe a bit to boo me as close to the wall but I think you can hear that the sound is really solid of course I measured it and you can see some frequency response measurements at different locus levels and although not perfectly flat you can maybe notice that the bass roll rolls off really really smoothly so there is not a sharp cutoff like on many other speakers but you even get some response down to 50 Hertz although not very loud so at low levels it could get along with a bit more bass boost the treble is not as fine as it could be but I think overall it's a pretty nice performer so first let me compare it against the within punker we've already heard it before and I will start again with the taotronics pulse X the fitting anchor yeah I mean I think it's pretty obvious I will put them on again away a little bit and let's increase volume the between Punk as well well solid at maximum lr6 yeah also maximum it's just no competition at all maybe let's try the anchor sound core excel we've already heard some days ago so let's turn this let's turn this off here doesn't want and let's try the anchor should also connect and I will try to try again matching volume for both um and let's try another track Hey sounds pretty punchy don't cry I would increase volume again on their anchor as well there is this already mixed in here the context I will increase it for mixing as well you're not in the same class let's reduce volume slightly for both it still sounds much fuller and much better so maybe we should compare it against the flip three I mean the flip three costs more than twice maybe the pulse ex can compete here here is the flip three check a boom and yeah I will try matching volume again so it's connected and let's try now track again starting with the pass X here we are lower volume now the flip three it sounds a little bit more full-bodied but also not as clean as the pulse X you can only hear some strange distortion of the based on I will increase volume slightly and the flip three starts reducing bass the Pollux it keeps the level yet start sounding more Keaney let's crank them to maximum again this is their clique we know so you can get all the base case reduce the past X as well there is some compression going on but it still doesn't lose its punch get another quick drink all right man I'm up next on the capstan show you folks Melissa Lee now to come out with the pin spider a slightly softer than the flip three but has a much more punchy more bass heavy sounded maximum therefore maybe let's compare it against the well TDK track max that a 34 and I will put them again a bit far away where is my phone and let's start with another track again pass X first I will Chris water this is the track max now it's automatically switched but you can already hear some distortion a place from is not clean anymore I will increase volume on the car sex it's louder but not very clean pass X again and let's try maximum the track max I will increase volume to maximum as well doesn't sound that clean so it's definitely louder doesn't have this bunch of the perfection track mix again I will use what in flight baseball both become more comparable yeah I think this sounds more convincing let's try not attract the TDK I think it's really impressive it has much more lower base punch than the TDK which were also pretty quickly so I mean for $35 - this is really impressive I mean it wipe the floor with the anchor and I think this is what I would call maybe kind of well a low budget King or something not sure if there are many other better sounding speakers than the taotronics I mean it could definitely get along with a bit more bass at low levels maybe some dynamic adjustment I don't know but you could hear it maximum at high levels you had remained pretty punchy with lots of nice bass no distortion just some slight compression so keep volume down two or three notches and you should be fine yeah I mean I think I will definitely keep it and use it as my future reference for all other low budget comparisons as this simply wipes the flow with all of them I even prefer it over the JBL flip three this sounds may be better at low levels there is some bit more bass boost but as soon as you turn both past half this easily takes over and I mean for $35 or 36 you cannot expect much more so I'm really impressed I even noticed that it shows an on battery symbol here so yeah when I when I get into my settings I see the pulse x with 50% battery so yeah it has everything you need I'm really really impressed although not the perfect sounding speaker for $35 it's maybe one of the best I've heard definitely better than the TDK a 25 and also maybe not cheaper you I saw the TDK a 25 for 25 dollars already this cost 35 36 in Europe a bit more expensive with for the 5 euros but still even any other speaker I've heard below 50 euros or dollars cannot quite compete with this so I hope I could give you an idea about the taotronics what you can expect from it is definitely a very nice speaker no knick-knack but just simple design and nice solid performance I cannot say anything about the battery life yet as it has just arrived but yeah we'll check out this also soon so I can tell you more but it looks really solid so in my future tests compared against some other low budgets because I will definitely use this one as this seems to put the level a bit higher than most of the others especially this one is ready and I'm not sure who wants to listen to music with this so thanks a lot for watching and we will see you soon bye bye
