I finally managed to shoot a video with 2 UBoom X connected for stereo, compared to a single unit and my Partybox 100. As expected the sound becomes louder and more bassy with 2 units playing compared to a single unit. Although TWS is not without issues like shown in the video. When switching back and forth between different speakers the TWS connected UBoom X can become out of sync. I noticed that this doesn’t happen if I am just playing music normally with no other speakers connected simultaneously. I could even use my indoor modes which allegedly are more affected but the music played just fine.

Update: just noticed that you can connect the UBoom X together with the UBoom L for stereo. This of course only makes sense if you use indoor or studio mode as these are the softest in volume and comparable in volume curve to the UBoom L although the UBoom L is still slightly softer at the given volume step, but at least it works for those who asked about that.

As a Partybox 100 owner this is precisely the comparison video that I’ve been waiting to see. I’m searching for a more portable, wireless-stereo alternative to my partybox and a pair of the UboomX sounds like the solution. Pairing 2 Partybox 100s was not a practical setup for my uses as they are a bit too large and heavy. Of course the relatively low price of these new EarFun speakers is wonderful bonus.

SO is Studio mode going away? I feel like Studio could make a really nice tone sweep speaker for capturing acoustic impulse responses from spaces.

Is there a chance that the Pb100 was in some low power mode? Because one Uboom X already sounds crazy good here

No it’s only replaced by desktop with my custom firmware

Very good :) It's definitely going to be a very cheap and very good speaker. I'm looking forward to next week when I can order it. But Oluv, at maximum volume, there are still some distortions, and probably nothing can be done about that. Like at the 24:46 mark of the recording, you can clearly hear the vocal clipping, like a trrrrrrr sound. And I hear this in many places at maximum volume; this is just one example. Personally, I don't even plan to listen at maximum volume, so it doesn't affect me, but once it reaches the masses, there will be all sorts of feedback, and from those who don't understand much, you might get a lot of negativity about the issues at maximum volume.

Yes it reduces volume when the battery gets weak. But in this video I had 3 battery dots out of 5 so it shouldn’t have reduced volume at all.

Great stuff! Double the X, literally double the boom. I'm finding the single X much, much clearer vs PB 100 in comparison, coming from what I remember on your old teaser video between those units. Insane mode back then had some issues. Current outdoor modes are much better now.

Holy You can even connect UboomL with UboomX? Something we didn't ask for but good to have...

Raelin Trenta

All the more reason to keep my Uboom L in the future

Waiting for that new firmware. I want to get ahold of the music you sample with. What's the genre? Dance? Is the music you recorded the same genre because I'm interested in purchasing. Thanx

Will there be a video demonstrating how the UBoom X playing together with the UBoom L? Would be interesting as a Uboom L Owner and soon a Uboom X Owner. Great sounding👍👍👍

Hopefully that continues to be there in official firmware updates. Thanks for releasing a nice tool as well as an awesome speaker!

I was for sure going to buy two UboomX, but after this video I have serious doubts. Way too boomy in Stereo mode! Oluv, will you also provide a setting for proper stereo listening??

Studio mode works fine in stereo. I may do a video comparing 2 UBoom X against my Neumanns

Lukáš Bartošek

for proper stereo listening 4 tweeters are not ideal at all. There will be lots comb filtering. Stereo mode with 2 units its more for party purposes.

I've been curious about comb filtering on bluetooth speakers with multiple tweeters.. but I don't fully understand it. Is it not an issue when playing only one speaker (with 2 tweeters in stereo)?

This track already has this wiggling bass like an intermodulation, so uboom x mixes it up and makes it on the vocals too, just too keep more bass
