Perseption of sound and quality is subjective and therefore I tend to go with what I like the sound of. It depends on whether or not you like bassy or toppy or somewhere in the middle.
Make of that viewpoint what you will. <smiles> Regards Kulvinder Singh Bhogal Twitter: @BhogalKulvinder SKYPENAME: bobba2006 Tel: +441332 514323 Mob: +447581 483856 From: Dane Trethowan Sent: Sunday, May 25, 2014 1:11 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Sample Of Polk Audio Speakers Yep okay, call me harsh and I can understand your point but I believe in being frank and my description of the Jawbone Jambox as a toy is I believe well justified, I owned one and I can't tell you the pleasure I had in throwing that device into the bin. The hands free speakerphone on that device sounds God damn awful! the problem again comes down to the narrow band width of Bluetooth 2.0 and there's really no excuse for that given the price of one of these things, the standard used should have been at least Bluetooth 3.0, that was around at the time. As far as the sound for music goes? I think a friend of mine summed it up beautifully when he said that the Jawbone Jambox sounded "Too Boxy". In all events we've moved on since the days of Jambox and Jawbone, one can buy a far better sounding system for Bluetooth when it comes to music and something far better for a speakerphone at fractions of the price.
