It's great to know it, thanks. But i do not reccomend using it with your volume at max because you can see how the passive radiators vibrate, in long term it can damage the speaker. I tried it now on my jbl flip 5, it sound a lot bassier but at high volume you can also hear the metal of the radiators, and i'm afraid to use it for too long. But thanks for the video
There's no such thing as “low frequency mode”. That mode you're using is a debug mode made for JBL to diagnose any issues with it. Listening to music with debug mode active can potentially cause damage
@@wihz Charge 5 came out after Xtreme 3, Xtreme 3 is the last speaker that have this "mode", Charge 5 don't, Flip 6 don't, Boombox 3 don't. Charge 4, Flip 5 and Boombox 2 have it though.
It is more a loudnes button, at a low volume you will no longer get bass, go to a higher volume and the bass will come back, but then it sound much too shrill and out of balance, and you can no longer use the EQ app, it is af if the JBL does is own thing.
I'll have to check on that. Still really am pleased by this speaker sound signature for the intended environments...and highly still recommend it. Feel bad for folks getting one now though...since the price actually went up recently. It's touching overpriced territory. The gen 2 isn't that much different though, and refurbs will be just fine. Hopefully JBL can keep selling these without cheapening them. They really really sound good for what they are.
just bought a JBL EXTREME 3, if you use this low frequency feature I strongly advise that you do NOT turn this up for long periods as this can fry the drivers in the passive radiators. ONLY turn this on if you honestly feel that you just wanna kickback and feel the rumble don't forget to turn it off as it won't do it by itself its a hidden feature. best of luck ya'll #TEAMJBL
jBL support told me yesterday that the Low frequency mode for Xtreme 3 has been deactivated to avoid damage to the device. So unfortunately it is not possible to turn on this mode on my device :/ Don't know why it works on yours...
No shit hey? Listen to the speaker in the video, it sounds like hot trash when its being pushed in "LFM" (It's actually a debugging mode for service use). Not only is it stressing the amplifier and woofers, greatly shortening the lifespan of the components including the battery.
@@damienlobb85 That's exactly what I thought, too. It distorted the sound a lot... makes no sense to me buying a quality speaker as a JBL to spoil its sound in such a way. I downloaded a good EQ on my phone and it works like a charm, without harming my device.

There is no “low frequency mode” on the speaker. You’re just taking off the safety and putting it into debug mode which is what they use to test the speakers. Playing it in “low frequency mode” can damage your speaker
Can confirm that's not the case I just did this on my charge 5 and the light flashed on the battery indicator so it's still available to do on the charge 5 as well
If you are using the speaker on full volume with "lfm", then yes, yes it can damage it. I strongly advise you NOT to use it since it is used for debugging purposes and not as a sound equalizer.
This is the worst thing you can do to a speaker. I dont know why it is called Low Frequency Mode in the first place when all it does is turn off the dsp and making it sound like crap. Many jbl fuckbois think this enhances bass, it doesnt. It has more excursion but thats all it does.

@@grandtheftgameryt They didn't, JBL Charge 5 have no LFM, and the next ones are likely to not have it either

Yea at low volume there’s no bass, I feel like u can only use it outdoors because indoors the sound is kinda unbearable
Hello, With what version of JBL Extreme 3 are you working? TL, GG or CS???
Mine simply goes into a cranked midrange mode if I do this. Why can't we just have a basic EQ?
You need an app equalizer to your android. If you have ipad tablet select some preset level equalizer for example Rock.
Now there's an EQ if you update the firmware
I'll have to check on that. Still really am pleased by this speaker sound signature for the intended environments...and highly still recommend it.

My Xtreme came with the Bass mode on. Normal?
No
@@simongeorge9705 bruh. Ok..
It's not on, they removed lfm so when you use that technique, it makes it sound more tinny
Just bought one, this mode is on by default, with mine, out of the box
we don't see the buttons for bluetooth
What's the difference on LFM on and off ?? because i dont feel the difference
There is no “low frequency mode” on the speaker. You’re just taking off the safety and putting it into debug mode which is what they use to test the speakers. Playing it in “low frequency mode” can damage your speaker
this is just to test limits of your speaker and you can also take off and sometime it can also damage your speaker too
wow it works!!
GT model?
Xtreme 3 was the last speaker to have LFM before JBL block the feature on JBL Charge 5 onwards.
I think you can modify to motherboard chip or ics to make it back or replace the motherboard with other with Lfm
Can confirm that's not the case I just did this on my charge 5 and the light flashed on the battery indicator so it's still available to do on the charge 5 as well

on super bass mode, can you listen to music or is it still not worth it?
Too expensive!

My blouthoot button always get activated when i try it
okay, must be broken, have to dropped speaker and i am sure it will be in warranty get it repaired up
Si muovono troppo i woofer e i radiatori passivi ora si staccano e volano 😆
I haven't known that until today
you can't run your extreme 3 at high volume for very long time using LFM
Why would somebody want that? It definitely sounds bad, besides, u just spoiling it....
For real i just tried it and it sounds terrible whats the point of using lfm when no good sound is produced
ATTENTION ITS DAMAGEN YOUR SPEAKER
As E-man said... this is a debug mode, and will damage the speaker when used for too long or at high volumes.... so, yea.
I don't prefer thet low frequency mode
It also ruins it
Model GG.
This is real?
Yes.. Pretty sick speaker
Distorted as hell in that high-bass mode...
ну если готовы после покупки ухеракать твиттера, динамики а потом еще и пассивки, то включайте.
The low freq actually sounds like absolute trash
How din u know
It is trash it sounds horrible and it can even damage your speaker whats the point of using it
Once activated you will have no warranty on the product anymore.
well you can deactivate it too, check video i have shown it come-on. this is just turning OFF your DSP
I can beleave that u saying that lfm its extream mode !!!!!!!!!
Xb43 has by default extra basse mode no one complain about warranty
