          JBL Charge 3 vs JBL Xtreme 2 - User Opinions

            Xtreme 2 sounds juicier than Charge 3. Frequency Response for the JBL Xtreme 2 is 55Hz-20kHz, while JBL Charge 3 can produce sound waves between 65Hz-20kHz. The lower the lowest frequency number is, more powerful the bass sounds. Of course, the drivers unit size plays a role in how loud the speaker can perform.Jul 6, 2018
