JBL Xtreme vs. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio - soundcheck

2015-07-22
hello and welcome this time to a comparison of the JBL Xtreme against the Harman Kardon onyx to do some people already asked about this comparison I think that both are really great performers and keep in mind that both are from the same company I mean JBL Harman Kardon infinity it's all the same maybe they are tuned by the same people I don't know I would say that the Harman Kardon Onyx to do is rather suitable for home use why the JBL extreme is better for outdoor I mean it's waterproof it has a much better battery the Harman Kardon went down after half an hour when cranked to the maximum while I could play the JBL for more than five maybe even six hours at maximum as always I'm using binaural microphones for the recording so if you listen with headphones you should get a pretty realistic impression of both speakers I will play some tunes and you can hopefully judge which one you like better I can already tell you now that the JBL has a more boosted sound it has some bass and treble boost while the Harman Kardon on exterior has a flatter sound also basses reaching quite a bit deeper but it's not as boosted we will have a listen I will start with some acoustic songs first let's try some jazz let's try some small chairs the maybe something a bit more funky or some kind of rock or a little bit more electronic for some house Allen is one medic Oh as you can see I put them aside now and both are turn to the maximum so we can hear how they perform at their maximum volume I'm starting with the JBL again another trick I think they perform on a similar level I mean you hear the difference in sound but if this changes when the Harman Kardon Onix to do is attached domains I will attach both now so we can see if there's really much difference when they play from battery or from means both are still playing at maximum a JBL extreme first let's have a listen I think you could hear that the Harman Kardon onyx to do was quite a bit louder when played from mains this was an old trick with old JBL and harman curtains because they simply didn't perform that well when played on batteries the JBL extreme is different it sounds nearly the same regardless if played from batteries of remains this is definitely the better light portable speaker while I would maybe choose the Harman Kardon Onix to do four for home use if battery mode is not that important it's not as suitable for portable use you can see it has some sticky feet here that you cannot fold in I'm not sure why why the Harman Kardon went for this design the more expensive Harman Kardon Onix also had this steel grip which you couldn't rotate or fold in for transport use so if you need something for the beach go with the JBL otherwise the Harman Kardon Onix to do is much cheaper and sounds maybe even slightly better depending on music style and genre I hope this was helpful I hope you could get a little bit of an impression how both compare see you in the next video until then bye bye and have a nice time you
