The JBL took the win for sure I actually heard the JBL encore in person yesterday and I was impressed by how far the bass traveled and how good it sounded. btw just a suggestion I think you should start putting the names of the songs in the description that way people can listen to the songs on their Harmon Kardon plus, JBL encore, UE hyperboom, etc.
Ya honestly both speakers are quite amazing, the encore is insanely impressive for its size and what it's able to do, one of my most favorite speakers around to this day, and ya I'll put the songs in the info from here on out so ppl can enjoy them as well
Both are great speakers but surprisingly the vocals on harmon kardon is much more recognizable and considering the insane bass it produces with that design..
The harmon is very pleasing to listen to and has a very full and robust bass that I just love, it's a all around better listen but if your looking for a more powerful speaker with a more robust bass then the encore is the way to go
@@JagistreviewsYou have to manually set it for bass boost. To EQ the Harman, press the call button & plus button together. One yellow blink decreases treble. Two yellow blinks is normal. Three yellow flashes is treble boost mode. Same works for the bass. Just press bluetooth & minus button. Ok so now I think we need to run this test again, lol. But still, I'd still pick them both, hahaha. I'm a bass head so I love me some JBL's. And HK is just allll around smooth! You can not go wrong with either of these in my opinion. Take care bud, hope you have a merry Christmas & a happy new year's 😊 I believe
@Monica-Grace-Love-Peace thanks for letting me know, it took me a long time to figure out that it has treble and bass eq settings ha ha I'm glad i did though, harmon is a crazy good speaker
Great video bro! Love the two speakers also for sure that JBL is base heavy Love it. And you're right the Harmon kardon sounds cleaner and not a space heavy but still sounds great. Great video keep up the good work.
Yes, big fan of both speakers--- I use the Encore for bass and party settings--- the HK GP3 for personal listening for more clarity and separation, (but is also a great speaker for social settings)
@@R56CooperHi, is the Go + Play 3 OK for a smaller appartement or does it have too much bass ? I saw the Oluv's review where he said it can get a bit too boomy for smaller places
I was going in a totally different direction, but after a few reviews of the HK, I think that’s my winner. I want something that I can leave on the shelf playing for extended periods and get some volume, but it’s mostly for me. I can buy something else for outdoors and large gatherings.
Hello sir, visiting here as I am deciding which one. I can see you have the LG RP4 there at the corner - I also own this speaker and I think it is wonderful. Regarding those two, JBL has a ported bass, it moves more air, less resonance and more extension. H/which moves more air, has less resonance, and has more extension. H/K has a better mid-highs sound structure, and its bass is an acoustic suspension type: dry and punchy. I found H/K more musical for rock, heavy metal, blues, and classical. The music you played is specific. H/K for indoors, general music. Encore is a party speaker.
@@Jagistreviews I mainly listen to music outside on the driveway at the house. When doing this, I prefer to use a speaker that has an a/c wall adapter, instead of using & constantly charging a battery. Also, using mainly the battery reduces the overall life of the speaker. Once I found out that the x20 has usb-c charging only, I kinda got disinterested in it.
@jedolivier2688 you can keep it plugged in and charged at all times while you're listening to it just like regular speakers, you just have to use a fast charger I'm pretty sure
@@Jagistreviews I already own the boombox 3. & I’m not particularly happy with the muffled, compressed sound coming out of the midrange drivers, especially at louder volumes. I listen to mostly classic rock from 70’s & 90’s grunge. Overall, just highly disappointed with the sound quality. JBL should’ve never installed the tweeters directly in front of the midrange drivers.It’s just an awful design.
Muy buena comparativa amigo me quedo con el sonido más refinado del go play 3, una pregunta amigo que marca y modelo de microfono utilizas para las pruebas se oye muy bien las pruebas
I agree the harmon sounds the best and most hifi to my ears, you can listen to it for hours and not get listening fatigue, as for my microphone I use the dual Samsung microphones on my Samsung fold 3 phone, they are quite good at picking up all frequencies
@hamd012 top 3 indoor speakers for me are... 1. Harmon Kardon Go Plus Play 3 2. Harmon Kardon Onyx studio 6 and up 3. Jbl boombox 3 😁 4. Soundcore Boom 2 5. Xdobo Bmtl Boom

Nice review! Which one you prefer for indoor listening 👇 HK Aura Studio 4 HK Go + play 3 JBL Encore When all are plugged in which will sound better and have better bass performance?
@d.3671 just depends if you want louder with more bass, go with encore but if you want a more hifi beautiful sounding speaker with almost as much bass, go with the harmon kardon go plus play 3
@@Jagistreviews Thanks for your response ! I see... I prefer a more clean sound with large soundstage where I can hear all the details of the music so I might get the Go + 3 as you say it's more Hi-Fi, plus I don't know if the JBL does true stereo or not.

Thanks for watching and supporting me!! I'm honestly loving both of these a ton!!!
The Encore still hits that lowest octave that other speakers can't reach. I am so satisfied since I moved to 32hz land!
The encore is a bass machine and handles the lows so dang well, the harmon handles the lows well but it's more open and punchy sounding to my ears

1. Harmon Kardon Go Plus Play 3
2. Harmon Kardon Onyx studio 6 and up
3. Jbl boombox 3 😁
4. Soundcore Boom 2
5. Xdobo Bmtl Boom
@@hamd012 i know I did 5 but these are my favorite indoor speakers that I own or have owned
Thanks a lot 🤩🤩🤩
@@hamd012 your welcome
Voices are more prominent on the encore. Both good.
I agree, honestly encore is still one of my most favorite speakers I own, although the harmon is really close
More vocal with HK and more bass with Encore. Both are good.
Yup exactly 💯 both are really good
Hab 2 Encors und die sind der Wahnsinn 😮😊 die Hütte wackelt 😂 so klein aber fein ❤❤❤
Heck yes!!! I only have 1 and it kicks ass, I couldn't imagine how good two of them would sound
Compare this Harman with the zealot s79 let see which one is the best
K I'll do that battle probably Tuesday
@@Jagistreviews ok I'm gladly waiting
@@princehansberry1524 sounds good
Encore bass is more punchy but harman clarity is really good... 😂
Yup exactly 💯
wow both really bass heavy
Heck yes!!! They have that nice deep powerful bass, but the harmon is more smooth with its bass, not so in your face about it as the encore
Encore ist echt derzeit der Lautsprecher mit Preis-Leistung und der sound der encore ❤❤😊😊
Agreed, it's honestly one of my most favorite speakers that I own, it sounds incredible, I just with the battery was bigger
Some distortion on bass on Encore at higher volume in the end, atleast to my ears
Ya it can distort some on max with bass boost on
@@Jagistreviews its really fun to listen to those comparisons since i have a really good sound card and headset..and then there is some youtubers where all the speakers sounds like shit cause they are using bad equipment recording their videos
@@rygaros6669 you definitely need good headphones and good microphones ha ha

Thank you 😁
Nice review!
Which one you prefer for indoor listening 👇
HK Aura Studio 4
HK Go + play 3
JBL Encore
When all are plugged in which will sound better and have better bass performance?
@alikhalaji5096 definitely out of those indoors I think go plus play 3 is the best
@@alikhalaji5096 encore is more loud though
Can you explain it very well great video
Thank you 😊
What if they 130 watts same sir.. encore boosted very well.. 😊👍👏🏾
Encore is boosted very well, bass is insane and loudness is more on the encore, the harmon is beautiful and pleasant to listen to
I'm really torn between those two... They're the same price in my country

Very very true
im i the only one that hears clipping on the vocals while playing on encore? it starts at 8.37
@@derinrodoslu7555 I think the encore can struggle a little sometimes
Treble on Harman Kardon is too high..

The HK is low enough I think.
Low enough like money wise? Or what?
@@Jagistreviews the bass is low enough and the rest of the frequencies are better than the encore

When switching speakers over, inform us with arrows not your voice.
Sorry I just use my voice until I can get better editing software and a better computer, but eventually I will
