Haha we recently did this test at my boys house and Sonos just had something about it that makes for a much better listening experience. I feel like even at full volume the sound is just as clear and with no distortion whatsoever. The jbl on the other hand while still a great speaker on its own merits had some slight clipping as the volume hit its peak. For how much music i listen to and the wide range that i listen to the sonos is just worth the extra money, i mean being an audiophile never was about getting the best bang for your buck imo, it’s simply about what sounds better and the sonos wins any day.

Patrick I agree fully. I’m not a Sonos fan whatsoever. Albeit I now have the Sonos Arc, Gen 3 Sub and One SL’s. The Move in particular has an excellent sound profile that blows the JBL Xtreme 2 away. I’ve owned them both. I went with the Sonos after putting them side by side.

Great review. The Sonos definitely sounds better to me, but it's so expensive I'd only buy it on sale (which it was for Black Friday). It also looks better and has a much more comprehensive ecosystem... On the other hand, their software can be a bit cumbersome/janky, but that is relieved a bit by this unit having a Bluetooth option. Also, I wouldn't bother taking it on trips, for that I'd probably get something small like a MINIRIG 3 or one of the Bose Soundlinks; the Sonos Move seems like it's more for moving from room to room around the house, or out in the deck/yard near the house. They definitely have bigger spenders in mind for just that.

Prob one best reviews I've watched, and I've watched soooooo many. Completely agree, the Sonos does sound cleaner, but the JBL puts out more than good enough sound and there isn't many speakers better. For 400 pounds I expect the sonos to have much better battery life. Personally I only play music at max volume and I'm always on the go so im happy to save a few hundred and sacrifice a small amount of sound quality to gain longer usage, additionally the Xtreme 2 also plays 40watts when plugged in Vs 20watts when running on the bat.
