Filmed on the One Plus 12. Will check with headphones later, if this doesn't represent the true sound, I will borrow a microphone from work and record with a high quality microphone. Don't expect disco levels, but for around the pool and chilled times, this thing really rocks!

@@ostrove4694 I know, I bought this speaker solely off written reviews. Hopefully this can show people what to expect. I can't say how loud it gets, as I haven't measured it, but the sound completely fills my small ish flat and the bass is like having a dedicated sub in the room. Just have to remember this is portable and you can take it out with you, which makes it fantastic. I also own the BokSound Bluetooth speaker which I take everywhere in the UK. Much larger speaker mind, but covers a massive area with sound.

@@RomeenSabahi-y1x weirdly I have just been say in a bar, with 2 sonos Play 3's playing. I had no clue what they where until I search your question. I can tell you now, the bass of the play 3s doesn't even touch the Brane X Speaker. They was quite loud though, and sounded ok. Hoping soon we get more people reviewing and doing comparisons, but doubt they will match the Brane bass wise, not at this size anyways :)

@@syedusamamanzoor1838 so the speaker it's self has a bass boost 😊 and I'm standing right I'm the spot where the bass response is loudest in the room. Also if you look for Brane X on rtings.com you can get the full specs for this device. In my testing, the device audible plays 30hz but there is a strange banging noise from the unit. That was pushing the speaker mind. Also to note in testing the high frequency cut off is 11Khz which is very odd

Thank you alot for the reviews you've made. Listening to this with headphones. I can really get an idea how they could sound live. The only thing which is holding me back atm ordering this thing is that brane currently doesnt offer international shipping. I am considering to use an parcel forwarding service to get this speaker. Since we have summer now in germany I cant wait till fall when international shipping is a thing from branes side. Cheers!

Glad it helped :) As these are being shipped in the US now, more reviews will start to appear. It's strange how the Brane team have not advertised this more them self's. As for the international shipping, I'm from the UK but was sent to the US to work for a few months and I heard about them so was perfect timing for me to grab one to test. Perfect for summer parties. If I'm honest, I also have the 'Bok' bluetuth speaker in the UK. It's a large Bluetooth speaker, has 20+ hours of battery life and goes 3 times louder than the Brane, but it was designed for big parties :) the Bok is my most used speaker I've ever bought carrying out parties for local events and in woods. So worth checking out also.

Hey! So there is a black fabric and behind that there is black plastic mesh. The sub is hidden also behind plastic which has holes, so you can see it just. There is another video by Brane which shows you the speakers and how they look :) but due to them being water proof, I guess that's why they are hidden.

True! There both similar sized. I think the Brane will win for stereo image and mid range. Bass.... It's going to be a close one. I think it could be a tie for bass. Overall I'd expect the brane to win 👍

@@gumz4183 so at first I thought the highs where really lacking. But I've been listening to Sonos speakers, and they are a lot brighter but the sound from the Brane X is well balanced when the EQ is changed from the default flat position and they sound wonderful. A really nice warm room filling sound. For the price I am super happy!

@@gumz4183 after going backwards and forward between Sonos Fives in a stereo pair set 2M apart vs the Brane, you can hear the stereo image is not even close. But it would be hard for any speaker to replicate a true stereo sound with the speakers 15cm's apart haha But In recordings where I could clearly hear the singer on the left and sounds that travel left to right, it didn't come through like this on the Brane. But the brain is still fantastic at what it does. Critical listening the sonos wins, but for pure fun and bass madness, Brane wins
