JBL Flip 6 Full Teardown and Sound Test

JBL Flip 6 Full Teardown and Sound Test

Hello everyone, in this video I will be fully disassembling the Speaker, then putting it back together while playing some music, I will also connect it to some external speakers to see if the amp is capable of running a bogger speaker which seems to be the case for every JBL speaker I've reviewed. I have noticed a few things: So while doing this I have noticed a few things:

Buy JBL Flip 6 from:

Advantages
+ The amp was capable of running a 4" and 5" Drivers and produce deep bass.
+ The rubber seals for waterproofing were a great idea providing easy removal and replacement if required.
+ The main drive seem is larger than the flip 5 and they have used all space available to mount it, this is great as its providing low frequency and deeper bass
+ The passive radiators were very flexible and could extend to a maximum stretch without breaking.

Disadvantages:
- The tweeter doesn't seem to provide any noticeable advantage compared to the Flip 5.
- The crossover is set at 4Khz (Not sure if this is right as the speaker performance in that range seem less accurate compared to the older Flip 5)
- Some Wires were permanently fixed to the PCB using some terminals.
- The Bluetooth aerial was hard to remove as the connection was below the PCB so had to peal it off to be able to remove the Main board.

Disassembly Difficulty Score: 6/10

I will say adding that tweeter really brought the speaker to life. I have a flip 5 and its sounds good don't get me wrong but I love the way it sounds with the added tweeter. Now we wait for sony to do the same thing for there XB line of speakers lol.

Great, thanks for showing us how! I had a buzzing woofer - just opened it up and screwed it down tighter. problem solved!

So glad you're talking in the newer videos. I always figured that people who didn't talk in videos like these didn't speak English. The coolest thing I ever saw, was when you hooked up the Charge 5 to your Warfendale tower speaker. I am still amazed by what it could do! Keep on talking. Ha! Ha!

Hold on, the wires with my flip 6 were soldered on to the woofer and tweeter. Why is yours different?

[EMTBAFV]

Thumbs up just for the decent music there reminded me of my old clubbing day's lol pack the body with wool the way old speakers were for getting more bass out them than speakers sitting in a hollow shell!

[orange]

At what point is the crossover it's all blur on that screen, i fried tweeter somehow and now i am looking for suitable replacement but idk where it crossing over 😢

[lekeolaogun]

[brettmb]

[-VanNgocTuan-A]

[muriithikiragu]

[kingofkingspl]

Ones you open a grill it steaks with a speaker after closing it again?

[jay-tikd]

I tend to get this farting sound after reassembling it?
How do I fix that?

[jeffsons.]

Olá a minha o twitter não é assim com esses fios ligados, são duas hastes de metal 🤔 será porque?

[MpRobbo]

Does anyone know why the bigger speaker has 3 wires going to it?

[x_blows]

This really makes me wonder what are they gonna add in the next flip 7, a mids driver like the boombox 3, Or are they not gonna make it at all or their gonna keep it the same as flip 6 but with slight improvements
