hi and welcome please let me introduce the FIFA Nordic Series FIFA's lineup of wireless also portable speakers with the biggest one the Stockholm being a stationary unit which is not represented here all these are portable units with built-in battery and all are named after Scandinavian capitals the smallest one day Helsinki Oslo and Copenhagen if you didn't know FIFA before well shame on you is this is not some no-name company they have been around in the hi-fi business for more than 80 years so they are older than JBL or bose and FIFA has been known for building the world's best speaker drivers until they came up with their own portable bluetooth speaker lineup I thought I would like to introduce you to each of these speakers later on we'll also get inside and have a listen compare all of them I already did lots of videos about fe5 sinky and claimed it to be one of the best if not the best compact portable speaker but many complained it to have a bit of a female design like a handbag the newest model the horselaugh is slightly bigger and heavier but again one of the best i've heard in this class the copenhagen the biggest one is of course also the most powerful one but all of them have in common that they really have a kind of what I would call pure sound well many companies have slogans like here the proof but in reality the speakers are sounded they don't sound really quite true the FIFA speakers all sound quite similar of course the smallest Helsinki cannot quite compete with the bigger ones but I was impressed to tell the truth with the Oslo because this sounds really mature I even prefer it over the largest model not only because it's smaller and lighter but this is the oldest model it came out two or three years ago in the meantime FIFA obviously improved quite a bit and maybe also they improved the drivers the acoustic design this release for my taste better than the Copenhagen all speakers come with an app they FIFA app unfortunately on iOS devices is not very stable so you have to restart the app quite a bit often to really make the speakers visible you can switch between different sound modes usually they come with a neutral stock tuning but for example the Helsinki sounds a bit tinny with the stock neutral tuning I would recommend to change it to late night because this really flattens the frequency response completely the Oslo sounds great with natural tuning but you can push bass and treble a bit more with late night and it really makes it a kind of well portable boombox but still much better than everything else on the market also larger speakers the Copenhagen has unlike these which have only bluetooth has also Wi-Fi and optical in so this is of course the most advanced model but it's also exactly as I already told you it's the oldest one so the Bluetooth is not very stable compared to these so I think it's best to get inside and have a listen to all three I will select one single song and then switch between these speakers so that you get an idea I'm always using high quality binaural microphones you already should listen with good headphones to get a realistic impression so let's get inside and let's have a listen so please put up your headphones now as you can see I'm wearing a head cam and together with the binaural microphones you should get more or less the same impression I had when I recorded this video I will play a house track which is a cover of a classic George Duke tune starting with a few very silky first both because have neutral settings many of it you can hear that it sounds it in bikini I will switch over to the Oslo it sounds fuller more full-bodied more mature Helsinki again and let's change with an ethnic ueno here now the Helsinki sounds more similar to the Oslo now Islam Helsinki or slow again and let's change also here to late night now the Oslo sounds cooler than the Helsinki making the Helsinki song again a big thing post low again Helsinki now let's check the Copenhagen I will start with the Oslo now both are again playing with new fresh settings Copenhagen maybe you can hear that the Copenhagen has a broader sound stage but the Twitter's seem to emit up words it sounds clearest from above so it's listed exactly on axis you lose quite a bit of throttle definition also and I will switch to late night here which makes it sound really well our full bodies and big a Copenhagen I really have to listen from above but you can hear that the smaller health Isola Oslo can keep up pretty well with their big Copenhagen maybe I should sit more censored here Copenhagen again yeah I should listen from here now let's put them far away and check how loud they can play both are playing with neutral settings at maximum and I'm starting again with the Helsinki Oh slaw both are pretty loud although the Oslo force at the edge but there are some hints of first before the Helsinki sounds cleaner here mostly again now let's try the Copenhagen again both maximum volume and neutral settings with the Oslo playing first you what slogan you again ha I hope this short subject was helpful for you to give you a first impression of the qualities of these speakers of course I should have played more different tunes with different genres but the video would have become even longer all have this typical FIFA HiFi sound of course they're smaller Helsinki cannot quite compete with the bigger ones but I'm mostly impressed with the new FIFA Oslo it's still pretty portable it has less than two and a half kilograms so it's quite comparable to the JBL extreme also size-wise not that much much difference but it wipes the flow with it sound wise it's also louder although you've heard there was some slight distortion at maximum volume I think this is it's maybe the sample I got here that because I hear some slight farting from that Beck driver from the back woofer it has two woofers one at the front one at the back two main drivers and I think for Pacific radiator so if there is really lots of tech inside yeah the Copenhagen has of course more spacious sound it's has a better sound stage but it's nearly twice as heavy it's also bigger and the battery is not that great on this model at moderate volume levels I got around four and a half hours while with the same loudness level I got more than ten from the Oslo and around eight hours from the Helsinki so I think the Oslo especially now for our European viewers Amazon German Amazon store has that blue one so exactly this model for 329 euros maybe an error I don't know but for 329 this is a steel it becomes directly comparable to the Harman Kardon going play I have here which costs $2.99 so the fee for floor sounds a bit better I would say maybe not at maximum volume here still the Harman Kardon has the edge but if you really like this high five sound well the FIFA Oslo is really one of the best because I've heard of course we will do more comparisons maybe even against the JBL extreme but this cannot quite compete this is another class this is more a boombox why this really gives you this true high-five fuel sound yeah I will of course also prepare a more detailed review on my site with frequency response measurements and so on please give me some time I would like to cover all three at once and I will post a link in the description when it's ready yeah thanks a lot for watching for 3:29 this is I don't know you won't find a better speaker than this maybe not not the color I don't like blue that much but I think it still it still sounds decent a bit like a jeans like my trousers here the other colors go for 399 currently usually the original price is 499 euros so 393 29 is really quite affordable yeah thanks a lot to anyone who watches this I hope you liked it and we will see us in the next video bye
