Insane 90W Superpower 360° Surround Sound / TREBLAB HD-360 Pro

So, every time I see the Thread Lab HD 360, there's only one thing that always pops up in my mind, and that is the Apple HomePod, which is really hyped up over the years for its audio quality. And I mean, I want to see if the H360 is offering a whole lot more than just a similar look. So, in this video, we're going to check out the build quality, the design, the audio performance, and also we want to see is this thing worth your hardearned money, and will it deliver the goods. We're going to get into a lot of the specs and other stuff soon, but for now, we just want to take it out of the box and see what's good. I mean on the top right there you get has the little getting started guide and you get a charging type-C to type-C charging cable and you get ax cable in 3D. Oh man, this thing is heavy. This what it looks like. So that's what I mean when I say every time I see it, it reminds me of the pod. Now obviously there's a few different aesthetic and design differences, but overall it has that pod look. And on the top right here, the instructions is letting you know how to function with this touch sensitive button. So down here, you got the volume, play a pause, you tap right here, the pair, got some microphones, and guess we could always figure it out. That's what the touch sensitive top is. And right here, you can see the woofers. You get one, two, three, four of these woofers. And then I think you have some other tweeters up here, but you can't see that much. I don't know if this thing is metal or plastic. It is. Sounds like metal. Rubber base. This is fabric right here. There's not too much otherwise. You can see power button right here. And then inside this little flap is where you have the charging port and the ox port. And I guess down here you have the base speakers. You can see something in the bottom right here. As the name suggests, this is a 360 speaker, which mean you could put it in the middle of the room and it will be beaming sound equally in everybody's ears while you're having that party with a peak power output of about 90 watts with about four 10 watt each full range drivers, a massive 50 W base driver with an additional eight base radiators. Thing is really, really packed really tight inside. I don't know how they do it. They p this thing really well, man. You're talking about 20 hertz up to 18 kilhertz. So, I mean, from what we're hearing so far with just the specs, things should be really, really jamming. Really nice. And if that's not crazy enough, this thing has Bluetooth 5 and you can pair an additional H360 for an insane immersive audio experience. So, just imagine if you have one of these crazy heavy speakers jam-packed, so tight with all this tech. And then you have two of them jamming. Yeah, you should have a really good time. But we're going to check it out and see how does this thing perform. And all of this inside is being powered by a 12,000 milliamp battery. That should give you about 20 hours of music play time. I think that varies because I mean if you have this thing all the way to the max with all these speakers jamming out. I'm I'm not too sure about even with 12,000 mAh battery. I'm not too sure about that. 20 hours, but you do get about 2 hours of charge time when it's dead from the 30 watt fast charger. So, I mean, it's a budget of a down time, but it's not too bad. You can be up and running within 2 hours jamming out again. So, but if you could get, I don't know, let's say anywhere between 14 to 8 hours of music play time, jam it out on this thing, that's pretty good. I mean, some additional features, it is IPX4 water resistance. That's why I was saying the flap around here is pretty thick. So, IPX4 water resistant. It has some built-in microphones right here to help you with, you know, capturing audio whenever you talk cuz you can use it to make phone calls. All right, so we got the HomePod queued up. Got my one of my favorite non-copyrighted song. I like this song. It's sweet by Jok and Casey. And remember, this thing is 360. So it's wherever you're standing, that's where you get the best sound [Music] supposedly. She got that sweet juice. Some of the lemonade. Take a sip. Blow a purple cloud. Tastes like lemons. Conversations back and forth like damn we could go off for days. Looking back at it like damn she bad when she walk away. Here we go. They already know when we go. I take you anywhere you want. People talk about when we say the base that you're getting from this thing. It is It's incredible, man. I mean, they added so many passive radiators. I'm assuming these things right here, you can see them. These are the passive radiators right here. And then it also has a big subwoofer, I think, at the bottom firing down. It's coming through these little ear holes right here. And then all the little speakers are here. And it sounds really good. But the bass, the bass though, I mean, for a if you're a bass lover, I think having this would be a dream. If you're just one of those person that just like a nice clean balanced sound, you might not like this so much. cuz even in balance mode, it still has crazy amount of bass. We're going to do some more tests. We're going to find out what's going on. So, what we're going to do, I'm going to switch through the different EQ mode. So, you have balance, 3D, and bass. We're going to switch through and see. This is balance. No need to worry to take my chances, baby. I just gone. Don't know where. Yeah, I like it. I definitely like it. There's a few things that I'm noticing that I want to do a little bit more test on. So, what I'm going to do, I'm going to run off. I'm going to do some tests with some other copyrighted music, songs that I like to listen that I use as reference tracks. I mostly use this one to do some of these on camera demos because it's non-copyrighted and I think it's a really cool song. I like Joking Karu. But I'm going to go off camera. I'm going to do some more tests and I'm going to come back. I'm going to let you know is this thing worth your time, money. Okay, so I've been testing the HD 360 for some time now and I have to say I'm pretty impressed, but I'm also disappointed. But hear me out. This is a really interesting speaker and a really interesting package for the price and it has a lot of potential, especially if you're into this old 360 thing because all these speakers that it has and these passive radiators, they do create a really interesting dynamic. And if you're into this kind of thing, you're absolutely going to love this. Now, for the price, they pack this thing with a lot of speaker drivers and some passive radiators. You can see them right here. One, two, three, four, and then it has a really big subwoofer down here and a bunch of other speakers line up around here. And then you already know the touch display up top. It has a lot to offer. It feels really good. It feels premium. I like it. I was wondering, you know, what if they just went ahead and just make this thing, this entire material at the top, but then I think they would probably run into some issues, you know, with Apple cuz this is how the Apple one look with this material. So, I guess that's why they went with the metal on the bottom and then leave those ports for the speakers to. So, it's Bluetooth 5.0. It has this touch area where you got a NFC tag so you can just put your phone on it automatically. It's paired. You don't have to be going into settings and doing anything. And that is pretty cool. I like that you got this little touch sensitive area where you could just play, pause, skip track. You can switch between three different EQ modes. All right, so let's just let's just get into it. Let's talk about the audio quality. I like it. It sounds really good. Sounds pretty good when you're playing music. You got three different EQs you can switch through. We're going to discuss that also. I do have some problems though. It is kind of a little bit warmer than I would like. And sometimes depending on which one of the EQ you're in. All right, let's just jump into the EQ. You got three different EQs. It got just this normal mode. It got a 3D mode and it got a bass boosted mode. No way in the in the world you going to need to use that bass boosted mode because everything you play on this is already boosted with the amount of subwoofers and passive radiators that's packed inside this thing. So, I don't see any reason why you would need to use the bass boosting mode for the other two modes, the 3D mode and the regular normal mode. What I realize is with some genres of music, it depends on what you're listening, some genres play better with the normal mode, while some genres just play better with the 3D mode. What a 3D mode do it delivers this more spatial wide open sound stage kind of give you instrument separation and it works for some audio for some tracks some music it does work some other trucks on the other hand it it kind of it kind of don't sound really good you have to probably switch to the normal mode and that's where it will deliver just this normal stereo separation sound that will sound a lot cleaner than those other tracks so with some track normal mode with some the 3D mode definitely winner. Now, it does have nice eyes, but it do get overshadowed sometime by the lows. So, I think your EQ on your phone or your device or whatever it is that you're connecting it can help with that. When you EQ it, you're definitely going to get the kind of sound that you want. But other than that, this thing can get really loud and it can get some really deep rumbling bass. Almost like it's shaking wherever you put it. But once you get this started going and you put it in the middle of the room or you put it in a corner in the room, it can fill a room with really nice sound. I don't see how you're going to get this thing and feel disappointed like, "Oh, I didn't get the right speaker." It's really good. It's just that it's not as portable as some other speakers would cuz I have the HD I have HD. What is this? The HD Max. I'm going put the name down there. I got this one. This one is way more portable. I'm definitely going to have a video on this one coming soon. But as you can see, this one is a lot more portable. You could, you know, stuck on my mic. But yeah, this one is way more portable. You could take it more places than this one. I'm assuming if you buy yourself a nice little pouch or maybe a dust bag, you could definitely pack this in and take it with you wherever you want to go. I would say it delivers some really good sound, but it is definitely going to need a little work. Especially if you're kind of like, I don't know, a little bit picky like I am where you like a nice balanced sound, then you're probably going to go into your phone, your device, your tablet, whatever it is, your laptop, and you're going to make some EQ settings, try to balance it out a little bit. But when you do that, you get really good sound. This thing can really deliver. The audio quality on this is really good. I wouldn't say it's amazing because like I say, I like more balanced, refined sound, this one is for more like people who like party. So, if you like to have a party wherever you go, this is for you. And if you're more snobby kind of audio file listener, this probably not for you. It definitely is not for you because this is just bass overload. Just shaking the room, shaking your desk. Wherever you put it, it's going to shake and rumble and yeah, it's just going to make you feel good like, oh. Especially when you're listening hip-hop or some EDM or, you know, any kind of those music that got some real, you know, slamming impact with the bass. This thing actually really deliver and I like it for that. I really like it for that. I mean, if you're looking at this one and you want to get it, I think it came out at about $200ish, maybe. And I think at the time of shooting this video, you probably can pick one up on discount for maybe 150ish. I don't know. I'm looking see if I can find a link and put it down if I can find it a little bit cheaper, like 140, 150ish. Definitely check the links down in the description. But this is the new HD 360. I think this one is the Pro, the HD 360 Pro from Treadlab, and I like it. It can deliver. If you like this video, if you like speakers like these, I got a lot more coming.
