Extensive and honest reviews, tests and comparisons. Of (portable) speakers and other gadgetry. Monday, January 12, 2015. Review: UE Megaboom - too much boom to be good? Happy new year with hopefully many new happy speakers! Therefore let's immediately start with the first one, the new UE Megaboom. That was just released recently. Or the Infinity One. And the Bose Soundlink III. Maybe even the slightly more expensive B&O Beoplay A2. User interface is pretty simple and minimalistic, Just a power button an...

Extensive and honest reviews, tests and comparisons. Of (portable) speakers and other gadgetry. Sunday, December 21, 2014. Review: Denon Envaya Mini DSB100 - the mini speaker (r)evolution. I already reviewed the bigger Denon Envaya DSB200. Since then other companies tried to jump on the bandwagon and issue their own versions of the Soundlink Mini, but most did not even come close the "original", let alone improve on it. Finally JBL managed to offer a worthy alternative with the Charge 2. The Denon Envaya...

Extensive and honest reviews, tests and comparisons. Of (portable) speakers and other gadgetry. Thursday, June 18, 2015. News: Class A speakers - Braven BRV-PRO, UE Roll. It is quite rare that iLounge gives an "A"-mark for a speaker, which according to them would mean "highly recommended". Now 2 recent releases got an A with the Braven BRV-PRO. Which got a straight flat A, the highest mark for any portable speaker (only some few other portable speakers received an A from them so far, like the JBL Flip.

Extensive and honest reviews, tests and comparisons. Of (portable) speakers and other gadgetry. Tuesday, September 9, 2014. First impressions: JBL Charge 2 - the new king?

You can hear or download quite an extreme example here. All issues were finally fixed with the final Firmware, please have a look here. Übers...

http://www.oluvsgadgets.net/2015/06/review-jbl-charge-2-plus.html
Extensive and honest reviews, tests and comparisons. Of (portable) speakers and other gadgetry. Thursday, June 18, 2015. Review: JBL Charge 2 where's the plus? Just simply ignore all my ranting about any distortion or DSP issues. Of the first version, as the JBL Charge 2 has none of those problems. But when buying a Charge 2 you can always check if the latest firmware is installed. The latest firmware (1.4.1). This remains a strong negative point and although I really welcome a synced volume control, as ...
