Earfun UBoom X - teaser 2 (Patreon)
Content
I spent a couple of days at my parents' house again and used this chance to continue my work on the UBoom X. The first unit which had got defective after my last video was returned to Earfun for check and finally I received a new unit so that I could continue with my tuning.
I was hesitant at first showing this video at all as I noticed there were still lots of issues at high levels, but this was literally the first time ever I took the speaker out to check how my settings would perform at high levels in an outdoor enviroment, so please see this as some kind of evolution, which can hopefully later demonstrate the work in progress and maybe also some significant improvement for the final state.
Meanwhile I have managed to fix most issues which are still hearable here and I hope everyone will find the final result satisifying.
Unfortunately I lost like 2 weeks due to the defective unit and have some heavy time pressure now to deliver a final state within the next days, therefore I cannot ensure that some tracks may cause hearable artefacts at higher levels even in the final state. Not to mention that you need to go outdoors to manage proper adjustments for these high levels the bigger speakers here are able to achieve. I had done most adjustments indoors before shooting this video and believe me trying to optimise high level performance indoors is close to impossible. Therefore I need to definitely find some more time and get out again and try to squeese out the most possible without the speaker falling apart or sounding funny like on many other products.
