Alan Ross Reviews Top Picks:
Pound for pound world champion:
Soundcore Motion Boom: geni.us/motionboom
Amazingly deep bass to 40hz for its size and price.
For a leaner more agile sound with seven more deep bass for the same price try the Mifa Wildbox
Still worth a look:
My former world champ the Soundcore Motion Plus can still offer great clarity.
geni.us/soundcoremotionplus
£50 champion:
Great bass for its size, Soundcore Boost: geni.us/soundcoreboost
A little bigger but a decent listen for full body sound at a decent price ($50) BOGASING M4 (some distortion issues): geni.us/bogasingm4
Bass Heavy Speakers:
Harman Kardon Go+ (mid and upper bass heavy but with decent balance): Play geni.us/goplay
Onyx Studio 6 (warmer than the 7, maybe too bass heavy in balance): geni.us/onyxstudio6
Bag of Riddim 2: not much deep bass but dollops of mid and upper bass help to give a warm and open sound. A good fun listen but not so accurate in reproduction. geni.us/bagofriddim
Hi End Picks
Minirig mk3 2.2 system: geni.us/minirigmk3
Great for portable low deep kick: Onyx Studio 6 (more bass than Onyx 7): geni.us/onyxstudio6
Monitor Like openess and neutrality but lacks deep bass Audio Pro C3: geni.us/audioproc3
Travel Speakers:
Marshall Stockwell 2: geni.us/stockwell2
offers a decent immersive sound with full and tight bass. Beware though it does not go very loud
JBL Charge 5: geni.us/jblcharge5
Only mono but has a very clear and dynamic sound at low volumes and can go reasonably loud but will become a little screechy over 80%.
Bose Soundlink Flex: geni.us/bosesoundlinkflex good bass heavy sound for its compact travel friendly size.
Denon 250bt, no longer made but sets the standard for size/quality ratio for travel (battery drain issues)
JBL Flip 6: geni.us/jblflip6 louder than the Bose Soundlink Flex and has better highs (though too much, bit harsh) but not as full sounding as the Flex.
Beosound A1 1st gen: sounds better than 2nd gen and goes louder but has app, connectivity and battery issues. Very deep bass for small size and clearer than the Bose Flex. geni.us/a1gen1
Best Mini/Micro Options:
Bose Soundlink Micro (warm): geni.us/bosesoundlinkmicro
Tribit Stormbox Micro 2(clinical): geni.us/tribitmicro2
Also consider Beosound A1 1st gen (more HiFi). geni.us/a1gen1
Minirig Mini 2: geni.us/minirigmini2
Worth a Look:
W-King T9: geni.us/wkingt9
The T9 is a reasonably loud and balanced party speaker with a big bright detailed sound.
Budget Loud Boombox: no clear winner but my pick for fun outside listen would be:
W-King X10-1 for form factor and loudness geni.us/wkingx10
W-King D9 for bass with a little smoother signature: geni.us/wkingd9
Tribit Xsound Mega: medium sized mono speaker with fun bass and light show. geni.us/xsoundmega

Great review as always. Glad you so eloquently pointed out how the placement and orientation of a speaker (and especially this type of speaker) impacts its perceived sound quality. You can in effect “EQ” a speaker simply by where you put it and how you place it there.
I personally own a Bose SoundLink Micro, Bose SoundLink Flex, Tribit Micro 1, Tribit Micro 2, and several other small high quality Bluetooth speakers. This new Tribit Micro 2 and the Bose Flex are my 2 personal favorites. They are different speakers in many ways and so they play different roles in my needs. Right tool for the right job.
Just want you to know that my business for 30 plus years has been working with high end sound equipment and sound engineers in a major downtown theater. I truly appreciate high quality equipment and the technology that makes it happen. Your love of sound gear truly comes across in your reviews. Much appreciated!
I’ll wrap my comments up with this. This little inexpensive speaker is a marvel. I highly recommend your viewers to get two of them to do true wireless stereo and be prepared to be blown away!
and at half the price of the bose! 😝😝 thanks for the comments, much appreciated! 👍
I already own one stormbox micro 2 and i encouraged my friends to buy one as well so we can conect them whenever its necesary
Your voice audio is always super clear and crisp! Great work.
Good to hear! 🤭🥳😁
Yeah, I think the micro 2 is definitely worth the extra $ between the two with the advantage of volume, the controls being easier to see, better battery, and the option of app support. It is really un JBL-like of Tribit to allow the new gen to connect to the old but props to them for doing that. Thank you for another outstanding Alan Ross Review! 😁👍👏
from the guy with the shortest name - Z - 🤗 you agree with all you said 👍
I believe prices vary by country but I think the Micro 1 is better value on Amazon Australia as it's two thirds the price of the Micro 2 (or Micro 2 costs 50% more) at their discounted price. I got a Micro 1 because it seemed to be better value.
Totally Agreed... The 2 is brighter and sparkler, the 1 is more natural. I prefer the 1 actually. Nice and warm, nice and natural instead. Thanks.
Great review! Thanks Alan!
No worries! 🥳
Thanks Alan for this review. The improved battery life and the ability to use the Stormbox Micro 2 as a power bank is really nice to see. This power bank option could really be a life saver. One of the few times I forgot to charge my phone ahead of time, I had a bad crash on my bicycle and couldn't call for a ride. I ended up riding several miles with some injuries, fractured collar bone, sternum, etc. and my bike was a bit messed up too. I really would have loved to have had a battery power bank then. I know my helmet was broken in a dozen different spots so at least I didn't bounce my head directly off the pavement. I need to preserve what little brain power I have. 😀
ouch!!!!!!!!!!! sounds like the micro 2 might be right up your street then 😁
I just might have to get a Micro 2 after seeing this. That is an excellent improvement in sound. I love that extra emphasis on the deep bass by trading off upper bass.
plus the ability to tweak the tuning...
Oooo how can I forget that! Its also got an EQ. You can definitely make the lower bass more prominent through it.
I love how you love your work 🎉
thank you 😁
I forgot to tell you. I love your choice of Music also. Keep up the great work. Look forward to your videos. Ray 🇺🇸
Thank you, some hate my music 🎶 some like it 😬 end of day, i will carry on with the same genres 👌👍
@@alanrossreviews I'm already used to listening to many of the tracks from your Playlist. They include Greenlight, Dirty Ugly, Cyclone, A Better Me, Monsters Under My Bed, Melodia etc.
I actually downloaded songs that I heard from your videos that I liked
Love your reviews Alan!!! Hoping to see ya with the wking d10! Have a great day
Not seen it in uk yet
Its so plasticky
@@bluetooth_speaker_junkie true but it's badass especially for unDer 100 bucks
very transparent, professional and honest video. liked & shared. cheerz!
Much appreciated! 👍👍😁
Perfect... im in 50s and i ride an ebike... so this is definitely an upgrade i love especially with battery improvement which was certainly needed. I hope tribit do a all in one stereo double the length speaker with same strap (possibly a wider strap).
they do seem to be churning out a lot of new speakers
Hallelujah. Alan you are the man.
well when i last checked i was 😁😁👍
Great videos, just one question. Do you think a pair of Tribit Stormbox Micros (1 or 2) would be better than one Bose Soundlink Flex? I'm am looking for a compact travel speaker for travel. Sound quality is more important than volume.
Thanks for your review Alan, just got one for 45 bucks here in Philippines, can't wait to travel with it and it will be my ipad/bathroom speaker
Nice 👍😁
“Smaller is better just ask my girlfriend” 😂😂😂
Another banger as usual Alan, I like the Micro 2 here. More brighter sound, but it ain’t something that’s too ear fatiguing on me.
what was the last speaker you bought? what you got your eyes on?
@@alanrossreviews Bought 2 speakers actually the Charge 5 and onyx Studio 7 😁😁
Was able to get both for a very good price, so I bit the bullet. I’m really enjoying both so far (both for different listening purposes obviously)
Still got my eyes on 2 motion pluses or a 2.2 minirig setup. Motion+ the more likely buy of the 2, because that minirig setup cost is 😟😟
Battery always was a problem with old model so that upgrade is already great to have
hello mr Techder 🤗 yup probably the single biggest reason to upgrade.
How long does the new battery run for?
Buenas comparativa como siempre! 👏🏻 sería bueno un video del bose micro vs tribit micro 2 👍🏻
por el camino....
Tribit will destroy bose …
You actually an amazing rocket scientist!
I am a rocket scientist without a rocket 🚀 😭
I think that the updated is the one that wins it here . They sound both very pleasant but the 2 sounds like it packs more instruments in it , and it has more battery.
the battery alone is a reason to upgrade 👍

This is probably the best sound-price ratio "micro" speaker ever. I would like to see a comparison with Minirig mini 2 and especially Vifa City (I bought it for 40$) which may actually be the best sounding...
stay tuned...................
Vifa city sounds good but the terrible battery life made it a bad speaker… to be a good overall sounding Bluetooth speaker you need to have a decent battery life. Plus it’s $150 on Amazon so what give? I thought apple was greedy didn’t know vifa was too
The first Anker Soundcore Mini sounds better than 2 and 3. And is under half the price of this. It might not sound just as good, but for under half the price. I think it's probably still better value!
Hi Alan! They're some funtions there are really important for a teacher and I havent seen no one reviewing on that way. One is been able to be great on voice, great middles; been loud enough to a good size room with some noise AC ON; having battery long enough to play 9 hours with no recharge (we really have outlets enough for that; and the most important to be able to connect to a bluetooth mic so we don have to loose out our voices in a few years. All that in a portable speaker like that pocket tribit. would be a huge success with professors.
and how big is that market? 🤣
Great job as always my friend!!!!!! You crack me up!!! When the two goes on sale I'm going to get it for my bike and for going on trips. Even though I love my motion boom you can't take it on vacation or on your bike lol
Its amazing what they can do in such a small form factor. 👍
Nice video Alan!
I discovered your videos some time ago, they are quite interesting, i really appreciate all the data.
Do you think the Tribit Micro 2 sound better than the Soundcore Mini 3, both using the app?
i bricked my micro 2 during a firmware update so sadly cant compare now
@@alanrossreviews
Sorry for that,
Hope you find a solution and we have more comparisons 😝😝
I think i will go for the micro 2,
Thanks Alan!
How is it sound compared to Anker Soundcore mini 3 pro after EQ?
Im looking for something portable that could be fasten to belt / bag etc
Love your reviews !
micro 2 is better
Hey Ross, have you by chance had a chance to hear the Marshall Willen? If money isn’t the issue, would you go for the Willen or Stormbox Micro 2?
No not heard the willen, i havent heard anything that makes me want to try it. The micro 2 is great for its size
Hi Alan! How did you get the measurement of original track?? That's really incredible for reference and tuning! 27:32
just load the track into a spectrum analyser 👍
@@alanrossreviews got it! 🤔That means you can tune the speaker base on the originalfreq response of the track and you get the perfect tune of the speaker? On the graph it shows almost similar, there are just difference in Lows department but mids and highs are mostly overlaying with the graph.
👌🏻...worthy upgrade
the seal of approval 🏅🏅🥳
Not watching the vid just listening to the sound I did not hear a big difference, I have a 1. But it is not intended as a home speaker. It was intended for biking and outdoors generally where the sound difference is more academic. The sound characteristics of the 1 may sound a bit boxier but not under the crazy circumstances where I use it. I would be much more critical of one I wanted for indoor sedentary use. Nice that you go to this much trouble to enlighten us in general. Thank you.
Listening to your comparisons i prefer the sound of the micro one. I also prefer the subdued colouring of the controls.
Well yes the difference in tuning is quite significant so its a matter of taste
Mr Ross according to your reviews, last micro you like the most was Soundcore Mini 3. How about a review between Mini 3 and Stormbox micro 2??
i would need to compare them side by side. watch this space.
I'd love to find eq settings I can use in poweramp without downloading the app, which would be a problem for a reason or two.
I have the Bose Soundlink Micro, JBL Clip 4 and now just got in today from Amazon the Tribit Stormbox Micro 1, should I return it for the 2? Probably not I’ll give it to my little brother and I’ll order the 2 next week or so, with spring coming here in the states and jumping back on the long bike rides I think I need the brighter sound since riding a bike in NYC next to cars and busy roads the brighter sound will definitely help.
there is a firmware update coming that will beef up the bass a bit
M1 is more V shape. M2 is warmer mids. I agree with you, it depends on personal taste. I have 2 M1 in stereo. That said, in louder volumes, the M2 trounces it due to better headroom.
When the Micro 1 and 2 are paired in stereo do they play the way they've been individually tuned? or does the Micro 2 eq itself to match the Micro 1?
i havent tested it but im told they retain original individual eq.
@@alanrossreviews Thanks
Hey Alan. Thanks again for the video. I do think the micro 2 with the new firmware and the help of the EQ, it would sound better than the Bose micro, but still can’t bit the minirig mini2 specially for the loudness.
Do you have one? I bricked my first one trying the update, i have another but bit reluctant to risk it again.
@@alanrossreviews I don’t have yet. I’m planning to buy two for stereo. It’s gonna be funny to have them on my Ebike handlebar. Two of them for sure sound fuller and funnier than one flip 6. Hopefully you can fix yours.
i always say you can also use the tribit as earings 😝 its like having headphones!
I've got the Micro 1, usually use them in stereo mode.
How would mix and match Micro 1 and 2 affect the listening experience?
well of course different tuning and volume scale so not perfect but still nice
I bought a Micro 1 and a Micro 2 this year but sadly their ability to pair in party mode or TWS seems to be disabled.
I'm thinking that Tribit did not intend for them to pair and that they have "corrected" that in firmware updates.
I'm pretty sure I did all I could multiple times over to get them to pair one way or the other the best I could get was a connection sound followed by a disconnection sound (suggesting it was actually connecting to the other speaker but the firmware was instructed to disconnect the different hardware).
havent tried hooking them up in a while, if they disabled that its pretty poor showing from tribit.
Correct. They don't pair any more. Pairing was probably a bug because from the manual, you have to have 2 stormbox micro 2 or 2 micro 1 to realise the stereo mode.

Hello Alan. Thabks for the videos. Need your opinion.
The price in my country for soundcore boost is $110, stormbox micro 1 is $62, maxsound plus $80. I actually prefer boost because of its sound signature, but the price doesnt make sense here. If I have to choose between the other two, which one do you recommend? The purpose of usage is for travel. I have already motion boom, motion plus, flare 2 for any other usages. 50% of tbe decision are made after watching your channel.
the maxsound plus for sure! the bogasing m4 can you give you decent bass if you can get a decent price on it.
@@alanrossreviews thanks Alan. I will consider it
Pairing the old speaker with the new one. Now that sounds like a major major go. If you got the old bugger then why not get the new one. Thanks again for breaking down the infor wars down on the Bluetooth speaker game. That's an Alan Ross review for ya
well i try my best 🤗🤗 nice to be appreciated 💪
Are you the guy named Flossy Carter?
Did tribit made an app where you can use the eq? lol I’m using it and I turn the bass all the way up.
I just seen the stormbox micro 2 was on the Canadian Amazon app 😃 going to order one for now however I will eventually purchase a second stormbox 2 and have 4 in total (2 original 2 new)
so you are a Tribit fanboy 🥳🥳 its cheaper than being a jbl fanboy 👌
@@alanrossreviews True but honestly out of the tribit speakers my two favourites are the Maxsound plus & Stormbox Micro (especially if you have 2) plus my dad really liked the Maxsound plus that I got him for Christmas 2 years ago so I'm thinking about getting him the upgraded model for his birthday in august...tribit makes good affordable products as well as anker soundcore those two are my two favourite bluetooth speaker companies 😀 I most certainly can't wait to see your review of the new motion boom 👍👍
what You like more Tribit micro 2 or Jbl Clip 4 ?
I own clip4 and think if buying Tribit2 insteadof Clip is reasonable....
Maybe You could make biger comparission of 4-5 small portable speaker, which have best sound in 2022.
well i dont own a clip 4..... problem number one... 🤪
So the micro 2 arrived in the mail today. I did a comparison with the micro 1 and I have to say that initial I preferred the sound of 1 a smidge more. Warmer. That is until I took them outside. Then I preferred 2. The brighter sound signature and extra volume helps to compete with traffic noise.
do you listen on or off axis? its going to be a matter of taste and they sound so different. but you do have that ability to go louder 👍
I always listen on axis.
Should I even make an attempt to fuss with the eq?
Would be cool if you did a comparison with the first Anker Soundcore Mini, which I have. :D It's under half the price of this one. EDIT: Well. It used to be half the price. Right now it's not? Weird how an old product rises in price.
there are so many videos i would like to do, sadly just not possible.
@@alanrossreviews Totally fine. :D Also an old product.
Can you do a video where you test out the EQ?
i bricked my micro 2
Smoother frequency response on the New version ..yeah it is clearer than the old one which has dips and peaks
to me its more like off axis tuning on the 2 and on axis tuning on the 1
How do you make the frequency measurements, do you measure the noise of the speaker playing some frequency, or do you measure the frequency itself?
I notice on my stormbox micro, at 70% volume in between 60 to 100 herts is pushing almost max power at those frequencys, about 1 decible lower than max volume
Also notice that the difference is smaller in the micro 2, maybe micro 2 does not make a lot of other noises when playing bass notes. My micro 1 makes weird noise when playing 50herts max volume
Sine wave sweep
Great video my friend. Thank you for the best videos you are really hands down the best speaker reviewer on TH-cam. But just a heads up when ever you do eq the new tribit stormbox micro 2 it is going to be a game changer. i was really shocked when I eq minds. 👍👍👍
well thats to come 🥳🥳
Nice review, imo the new stormbox micro 2 is an upgrade, bigger bass(meaning deeper) and less on the upper region i'd say, treble extesion is smh similar to a jbl xtreme 3, not on power ofc but the sound, like a mix of a shouty and metalic tendency? Its what i'd say so. But for the size its about sequeezing the most out of sound, without making it too much of a mess i think in order to help to squeeze the power with loudness and bass its a nice aproach this tuning. This is a theory of mine tho so i might be i wrong xd.
I think people will be happy with the better batter and brighter sound
@@alanrossreviews yeah, mb a bit less for audiofiles, although treble from 1st version is Not that great too, but majority will prefer, for this price its a king in this class.
The stormbox micros are the only micro speaker that is worth the price coming from someone that hates micro speakers. Great video once again 👏
for the money you cant argue! 10 of these vs your boombox??? 🙈
Massive Bass or Surround sound 🤔
upper bass party....
I rather have massive bass
Same thoughts
Its better to my tatse! But i have a feeling you got the boombox 2 arriving in your mailbox...🤪
yeah but the neighbours have hidden it 🤭
I rlly wonder when will Tribit start selling the Micro 2, I'm planning on getting one to pair with the Micro
You cant get one now?
More battery life : ✓
Latest Bluetooth : ✓
Power bank : ✓
Louder : ✓
Deeper bass : ✓
Controls are clearly visible: ✓
Can TWS with StormBox 1 : ✓
Customizable EQ : I’ll wait for the next video
With all that said the StormBox 2 seems like an upgrade worth writing home about ☺️
For me the battery alone is worth the upgrade 👍
Agree
I can’t wait to see if you can eq even more/deeper bass into this little speaker
Give as a nice bassy EQ Alan!!!
@@waynedexter it’s not possible deeper bass, but it’s possible to make it sound with more bass or warmer.
I would love to get that bad boy in my hands but I already have the glorious MaxSound Plus speaker which I really enjoy using!
very very different speakers with different usage scenarios.
@@alanrossreviews yep and the MaxSound Plus is a combination between small and big and that makes it a truly good choice for speaker even in 2022!
Even more so now they do tws
Stereo is amazing on these. Much more fun than headphones 🎧
Is the Micro 2 comparable to the Soundcore 3 or SoundcoreBoost?
its good but it cant match the bass of the boost
First, can't wait to see if it's good 😝
let us know your conclusion...... 👍
@@alanrossreviews I was scared of the 2 being too bright when I saw the frequency response but when playing music it's not an issue. Using a Motion Boom to listen to this video, it simply sound a bit more detailed. 😋 The better bass and bigger battery are also great. And that TWS between gens is fantastic too. 🤯
If I was into small speakers I would get the 2 without hesitation, even if I prefer Micro 1 at max volume 👍
I can see a couple of these being great fun when stuck in a hotel room or even right by your ear 👂 in a bath 🛀, 😛
@@alanrossreviews I see two of them on a bike being great fun. Or to use one new one and one older one to make a more balanced sound 👍
Hey Alan being this video you didn't EQ it would you make another video using the EQ comparing it to another speaker with EQ like the soundcore mini 3
Sure given time. I wanted to eq the mega first but cant get it to connect to the app.
@@alanrossreviews oh okay okay sounds good looking foward to it alan!!
@@alanrossreviews F the Mega!
We want the Micro 2 EQed
Stormbox Micro 2 sounds decent but it's a drop in sound quality next to the Maxsound Plus. I recently purchased both. I'd recommend it only if you must have something to carry around in your pocket. I quickly gave up on the glitchy app, just EQ it with Jet Audio.
Size will nearly always have the advantage when priced about the same. Youd have to move up to say the b&o a1 to get similar quality in a small package.
@@alanrossreviews 430 clams on Amazon Canada, 236 squid on UK. I know B&O make good speakers, I have Beoplay S3 and they are very detailed speakers. But couldn't see shelling out big bucks for a little speaker like that, and wouldn't fit in my pocket anyway.
is micro 2 comparable to xsound go or at least its tuning?
i never heard the upgraded xsound go. from memory not really comparable.
I have a question can any song be equalize that want to play or you have to download songs in order equalize songs on charger 5 JBL
any song will have the eq you set in the app
@@alanrossreviews thank you for the info my first time have a JBL CHANGER 5
Are you going to get the Tribit Stormbox Blast? It seems similar to the Motion Boom and the Wildbox.
if they send me one...
@@alanrossreviews I love your reviews because you are honest about what you hear. I love speakers. I have the Harmon Kardon 4, 5 and the Go Play, I have a Sony GTK 5, I have a Braven XL, I have an Urbanears Rails, and I have a Tronsmart T6Max. I don't believe one speaker is better than the other just different sound signatures. Harmon Kardon is my favorite sound signature. I hope you get the Stormbox Blast and the Tronsmart Bang. I can't buy them all but I love watching reviews. I love your humor, I love that you detail all the specifications and how you have an open mind about speakers. Like there's this reviewer, he ALWAYS pick JBL over every speaker he reviews. Keep doing what you do and be honest with no bias.
Thanks for that. Tribit did say they would send me one but its still being finalised
So the micro 2 is the pocket speaker with the deepest Bass ever, and In my opinion with the most satisfying sound, with the help of the Equalizer.
not sure about the deepest ever. lets see it against the bose, but maybe you are right 👌
Since you can connect both micros for TWS can you do a comparison with the Soundlink Flex?
I bricked my micro 2 during firmware update 🤣
WTF!
Maybe you should post something in the community warning folks of this issue
🤷♂️ i cant say its an issue, but maybe the the crap media tool we have to use
Were you able to un-brick?
Which do you prefer under $100 USD: the Micro 2, the Uboom L, or other speaker?
motion plus and motion boom
Thank you ❤️
Song at 26:10 shows how less detail / less highs helps make a squeeky song or person's voice, less irritating. Less fatiguing. My broken hearing makes treble sound like tinfoil. Which is why I prefer the warmer Micro 1 to the brighter Micro 2.
However, I love that the Micro 2 uses white for the main buttons. I totally despise the all black look. I hope the high contrast white fonts will catch on. I'm not a thief in the night. I DO NOT need a stealth micro speaker.
yes smoother but less dymanic because of that
I like the original Micro a lot. It's a fantastic "throw it in the bag and go" speaker. However, I never listen to it on-axis...so it sounds like the Micro 2 might be an even better-sounding option.
then yes for sure.
can the tribit app still be used when it is paired with the micro 1
im not sure, havent used it in a while, im also told firmware updates have made the 1 and 2 incompatible
Plz play all those og tracks you used during the motion plus era, and when the boom was newly released 🥰
Coopex - Over the sun
EMDI - Hurts Like This
Convex - Home Soon
SUNZZ - Like you do it
Tobu - Save Me
RYYZN - You were right, You're welcome
X-Ziliot - Rush
Nexone - Memories
Poylow - The Hills
Dubio - Edge of my seat
All these are my fav EDM i discovered from u💘
i love all of them but i like to keep things fresh. also if they ever go copyright i will lose all my videos, best to change it up 🤷♂️ ive also gone more for tracks that sound strong consistent throughout as its easier to compare more than two speakers that way.
@@alanrossreviews ok I understand
@@alanrossreviews but that eq looks sus ඞ. 2.5khz is the highest band😐
@@stargazerxd13 thought the same.. most likely there are more bands sliding the screen. I'm guessing.
I have an orange colour micro 1.
Does micro 2 also have orange colour ?
dont think so at this point.
@@alanrossreviews i asked the support for different colors and they answered, they don't plan orange or blue version like they did with micro 1 :/
Hi Alan I bought the storm box micro 2 but it’s not pairing with my original storm box, need a little help.
You have to do it in the right order. I explained in the video
@@alanrossreviews hello Alan, im sure I did everything I could in the right way but it didn’t work, also I noticed the sound quality (the clarity) was muffled when compared to my original stormbox micro so there wasn’t much treble but my old one was doing well. After all this it’s making me think I got a defective unit but I’m not so sure.
If you open the speaker cover, the sound will improve tremendously.
Can you compare the sound quality of the stormbox micro 2 with the sound quality of the jbl flip 6? And can you also compare both the tribit stormbox micro 1 and 2 in party or stereo mode with the flip 6.
my micro 2 is dead after firmware upgrade....
@Alan Ross Reviews so it just stopped working for you altogether ?
If so then this is very bad news for tribit. I hope that they get their software working for us customers.
no it failed half way through the firmware update.
Can i use type c to aux to be wired mode, thanks
it can be done but whether it will work with the micro 2 and your device i dont know 🤷♂️
I can’t seem to get v1 and v2 to pair correctly. They would pair but one speaker would b on stereo mode, v2, while the other would b on party. Then I would press the Bluetooth button on either speaker to see if I can rectify but then v1 would power down immediately.
thats a bit shitty, i have no issues with mine. maybe this is why they dont advertise v2 and v1 as being compatible?? a bit hit and miss???
Also, the Tribit app isn’t picking up my micro 2 😕
that app is hardly even beta!!!!!! sometimes you have to close the app down and restart. also i think you have to be in pairing mode first time you connect but dont quote me on that.
2 sounds slightly more crisp and appealing for my ear
more crisp for sure
I’m late... yes sirr Alan 🏆
late but always welcome! im sure you have a good excuse 😛
@@alanrossreviews hope you’re doing great🙏
well im doing ok 👍
i just bought the Tribit Stormbox Micro 2 , i can tell you this is the most powerful SPL and bass you can have for a speaker that can fit in your pocket !
👍
Is jbl go 3 worth upgrading to strombox micro 2?
Yes in my opinion
Buen día soy de Colombia me ayudas a comprar el Dockin d fine plus por favor en mi país no es posible
Hello Alan, I was wondering if you done an eq for the tribit stormbox 2? I always look forward to your eq settings.
i never bought that one
or do you mean the micro??? when i tried it wasnt worth the effort as you cant get more bass than the default
@@alanrossreviews yes the micro 2
Was just about to purchase the Micro2 when I noticed Amazon is currently selling the Micro1 for 33% off @ $39.99. To me the Micro2 does sound better here, but I haven’t heard them in person for comparison. Do you think the sound profile and battery still make the Micro2 worth the extra price, considering this current Micro1 value proposition?
Also, does TWS require a Micro2?
Thanks for doing what you do! Hope to hear your thoughts on the atribuyó Stormbox Blast soon!
tws works with both 1 and 2. i prefer the micro 2 but its much brighter so be prepared for that.
Does it pair with the original stormbox, the website says it can't but your videos shows you can, so I'm confused.
huh? i never paired them, why do you say my video shows they can be paired?
@@alanrossreviews I meant stereo or party mode stormbox 1 and 2
Their website says it can't pair but It actually does pair.
@@soumenchakraborty2450 stormbox 2?
@@alanrossreviews yea the website said the storm box 1 and 2 can’t be used together for stereo or party mode, you have to use 2 or the same gen speakers.
But when you tested it worked so I think what Tribit said is wrong.
@@soumenchakraborty2450 so you are talking about the stormbox micro not the stormbox which is a different speaker. So yes as you saw micro 1 and micro 2 can be paired in tws.
does anyone here use their speakers while plugged in a powerbank for longer use?
dont do this all the time or you will kill the battery
what's with the elephant??
remind me..what elephant?? 🤷♂🤷♂
i cant pair my micro 1 with the 2..... got any advice?
Tribit sais in thei site that you can't pair the two. I don't what happen but it seems the newer versions o the micro 2 got rid of the that funcionality. Don't know why. Probably because the older version doesn't have firmware update and it would be difficult to keep the funcionalty
Just saw a comment of a guy that has problems paring the two versions. It was 2 months after this vídeo. Check it out
I just got the V2 and same here, I can't get to pair them. Shame, apparently they removed that functionality in the newer fw update...sigh...
Big difference! I think you know which one to choose 😹😹
erm.........2? 🤪
@@alanrossreviews yep! 🤠
Nice upgrade in the battery 21700 4650mh 16.5wh Bluetooth module same as the old one ATS 2833 and ther is IC protocol for usb type C w332 Handshake QC protocol ic. But the amp i cant find the info cus its look like they didn't use TI amp anymore all they're new spiker i didn't know why... Maybe cost cutting
but the AMP in motion boom was so good i didn't know it was not made by TI made by cina unknown brands so small ft3129 it ruining @24v singel amp without heatsink 30w x2 15w each spiker so carefulll cus i think anker didn't put limit on motion boom the passif radiators can't hold the bass 😅 jbl and bosse put limit on they're spiker
nice info 👍
@@alanrossreviews takyou alan ur review is my guide. Ur the best.. I gone stay with my micro.. But gone replaced the battery with vtc 6a 3000mh..
Prefiero el sonido de Micro 1, es mejor para mis oidos 😉
If the 2 is too bright, I'll just put it in a Crown Royal bag.
or just turn the light out?
@@alanrossreviews ha, I meant the sound.
You deleted one of my comments? :(
nope! now im wondering what you said 🤭
@@alanrossreviews That's so weird. I can't see the comment I made. xD I wrote something, that I know. Then I went to update it, and then GONE! xD
@@Schmidteren i rarely delete anything 😊 there isn't even anything in the hidden comments from you, 🙁
Is micro 2 available in India? How can i buy it?
Is this a serious question?
These speakers are too small, audio quality matches the size. I'd never go smaller than flip size of speakers.
you can wear them like ear rings and have your own disco 🤭
@@alanrossreviews wouldn't be surprised if there's actually someone out there that does that 😄
im saying nothing.... 🥳
I agree. the Micro doesn't get low, it's all mid.
I have had two Tribit StormBox Micro for three years and I have finally decided to change them for this new version.
At first I almost regret not noticing a substantial difference, but when I discovered its equalizer in the application... this is already another world. The most important and fundamental thing is its sound, and it has exactly what the previous one lacked: clean treble and sound clarity. Apart from:
- 10W vs. 9 W (and it is quite noticeable, especially in TWS)
- 12 hours of use on a full charge vs. 8
-Bluetooth 5.3 vs. Bluetooth 5.0
- Powerbank to charge other devices.
- The App! fundamental to change its default sound since the equalization that is done to it (there are several predefined and also configurable) is saved in the speaker. Simply for this, the upgrade is worth it.
- Fantastic and very easy configuration for TWS, nothing to do with the previous model.
Best regards, my friend 🙂
Thanks for your input 👍
Bose fanboy is here :D
flex is king! 😝😝 fanboy alert! 🤭
@@alanrossreviews no, Bose micro 🤭🤭😁
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..we will see after some eq on the micro 2 🧐
@@alanrossreviews that would be so interesting!!!! Bose Flex vs Micro 2 + EQ
@@alanrossreviews the Flex is twice the size and more than twice price. Two tribit micro 2 would be better than one Flex.
The moment I saw this video, I was like
"If it ain't broke, don't fix it"
But after watching the whole video from start to end with the control, sound, battery and app upgrades, I think this might be my first time that this is a worth upgrading to from the previous gen Micro, I love your detailed reviews :)
Ngl I thought of Bob Ross everytime I watch your videos :')
Im much better looking than bob ross 😃😃 just beware it will sound brighter.
