Unfortunately, not everything is perfect, and the speaker fails to accurately reproduce treble notes. A good example of this is in The Sufferingby Coheed & Cambria which has fairly loud and melodic guitar parts throughout that never make it hard to hear the lead vocals. Vocals are easy to distinguish, as with most guitars and synths. The smooth bassline in All I Want Is You by Miguel sounded close to perfect to me. The bass remains prominent in any song whether that’s good or bad is up to you.

The lows sometimes mask the mids, but this is an infrequent issue. Also on the bottom is a bright orange zipper that when peeled back reveals a service button, aux in, the power input for charging, as well as two USB outputs to charge your devices. It’s also where you’ll find the small indicator lights that let you know roughly how much battery life is left.

Even though I’m sure it can still be oriented vertically, this makes it pretty clear that JBL intends you to place the speaker horizontally while using it. If you double tap the play/pause it’ll skip to the next track but there’s still no returning to a previous track.īesides the overall size, the biggest differences you’ll find in design between the Xtreme and the Flip 3 can be found on the bottom of the speaker where it has a hard plastic stand built into it.

Up top you’ll find all of the buttons including the Bluetooth pairing button, volume down, power button, JBL connect button, volume up, and a play/pause button. Similar to the Flip series both ends of the speaker have external dual-passive radiators that, due to the larger size of the Xtreme, do work on the low end.
