    Detailed Test Results

    Sound quality: JBL's Charge 5 had Good overall sound quality. Bass has good impact, but is a bit boomy, and deep bass is lacking. Midrange is fairly even, but is somewhat hazy, grainy, and a bit dry. Treble is extended, but is slightly smeared. So-so recovery of room ambience, and sounds somewhat congested. When two units are used as a stereo pair the sound stage can be made wider depending on placement. Provides a decent volume level in a medium sized room.
