hi everyone and welcome today would like to dedicate some time to the ultimate ears boom - quite a highly-rated also hype speaker gets lots of place from everyone I may be the only one who thinks it's nothing special I mean it's not completely bit so it has nice features it's waterproof pretty rugged but I think the sound is rather average and the only thing it can lead with play pretty loud but in them it doesn't really sound great I thought we'll compare it against some other speakers much cheaper ones lenders showing images also way smaller form or pocket sized goes for around $40 this hammer 30 currently then I have the lava room 20 which calls for 60 and a pretty cheap one like this tall Tronics plus X which costs around 26 currently all of these cannot play as loud as the ultimate ears boom boom but for normal level listening all of these are better I would say so this can really only play loud but even then the sound is nothing special so if you really need loudness I would go for something else something bigger or even a charge 3 which sounds much better it makes it more sony xba-4 and so on but before hey listen let's check out maybe some frequency response measurements and you can see the ultimate ears boom on axis so measured exactly with the driver and if we compare it to the old ultimate ears boom you can see that not that much has changed the bass is really equal the only thing they did is movement out treble slightly so it doesn't have this lower treble boost anymore but even off axis the sound didn't improve that much so here both again measured many degrees of exit from the drivers and you can see there is significant travel loss although ultimate ears claims 260 degrees and for a ue boom the Santa comes redo when not listen with one driver aimed directly at the listener it makes them there is not that much difference between the old and the new version both are quite loud although with lots of dynamic compression etive mòr bass reduction but now let's compare it against a strong mini is always amusing binaural microphones so you should listen with headphones I will play them at normal listening levels and we'll start with a Huey bone tool first so please attention yes you can see I already turned it with one driver go at me this way it would become even worse so we have to listen like this otherwise you get quite a diffuse and holy sound come on a song and a quick jab maybe it sounds a little bit hidden here in Russia speaker this omnidirectional part doesn't really work that well not easy to make volume football like this we can also place this show me for a more directional sound so I will increase volume slightly Yamagata Oh our business and cancel make another phone and see what happens when we reduce volume so this is more background kind of listening this becomes much more full-bodied let's increase volume again and of course the reason tree sway powder you can let's go again it may come you evolve who will be twice as loud or even louder or business - I mean you know oh yeah if you really need this high loudness the show-me cannot quite compete but let's try maybe the volume twenty you can hear a much more refined sound overall deeper bass simply notice booming honky hollow this bass boost here at around 200 250 Hertz makes it really sound quite a bit strange not a track but something like this you could maybe hear some slight distortion from the place already from the Vavoom 20 it's also not a very loud speaker but let's try maybe the taotronics parsecs may remember this cost 26 so really wait cheaper than the ultimate ears boom - and it should connect hopefully ya know and let's try the same track again with the UE boom - first you can hear it unravel slipping too much meat while a more funky phone and on the secret ultimately this is the Optronics our techmount you can hit keep the base wiser - McQueen doubters are with nothing near the people lose weight outer doesn't - something like this from no collection oh yeah as I told you if you really need maximum volume in a small form-factor Yayoi boom - is definitely nice but for a normal music listening there are much better choices this taotronics is simply the cheapest one I found which can really sound still pretty decent but 430 or even higher price I bought it 450 years yeah completely overpriced you can find it for lower but still even four hundred dollars I wouldn't probably buy it so yeah I hope this could give you an idea about the ultimate ears boom PO nice features great design but sound is simply average or below average I definitely prefer a ShowMe as I can put it into the pocket and it sounds way better swallow a little listening so thanks for watching and see you in the next video have a nice time and bye bye Oh
