Bose Soundlink Mini vs SoundCore Motion 300 (Patreon)
Content
Just for fun I tried to create an EQ setting for the Motion 300 which would make it sound closer to the vintage Soundlink Mini (or like in my case the SE version).
This is not really meant seriously, but it shows how heavily the Bose colors the sound. Below a measurement of both, Bose in black and the equalized M300 in blue:
It's not possible to recreate the frequency response of the Bose by 100%, as the EQ is a bit limited (the range above 2khz would need even more boost, which is not possible with just 6dB adjustment), both speakers boost or reduce bass at various volume levels differently and have a completely different treble dispersion pattern, besides the sound of the Bose is quite flawed to begin with, with treble appearing slightly ringing probably due to intermodulation of the tiny drivers, but I think the overall character of the Bose is captured pretty well.
