Upgrading from Xtreme 3 to Xtreme 5. How does it perform next to PartyBox Club 120?

Hey everyone!I’m currently updating my portable JBL setup. Right now, my main gear consists of the JBL PartyBox Club 120 and the JBL Flip 7. My friend has the exact same setup (Club 120 + Flip 7), so when we hang out, we use Auracast to chain them together for big stereo parties.I also have an older JBL Xtreme 3, but I’m planning to replace it with the new JBL Xtreme 5 Black to fully transition to the Auracast ecosystem. My plan is to use the Flip 7 for maximum portability, the Club 120 for car-travel parties, and the Xtreme 5 as the perfect middle-ground with a shoulder strap for parks and outdoor hangouts.Later this year for Christmas, I'm adding the JBL PartyLight Beam and EasySing Mics to the setup.For those who have already made the jump from Xtreme 3 to Xtreme 5: How noticeable is the sound difference, especially with the new AI Sound Boost at maximum volume? Does the Xtreme 5 hold its own when chained next to a Club 120 via Auracast, or does it get completely drowned out by the PartyBox?Would love to hear your experiences before I go for the Black version. Thanks!

Charge 6 or xtreme 5 for edm and metal?

Hey, im stuck deciding between the jbl charge 6 and xtreme 5 and cant really choose.I listen to mostly edm, techno, rock and metal. so i need something that can handle heavy bass drops but also won't make fast guitar riffs and drums sound like a muddy mess.Problem is i want to use it basically everywhere. like daily in my room but also throwing it in a bag and taking it outside, beach, backyard etc.Is the charge 6 enough for heavy music outside or does it sound too thin? and is the xtreme 5 worth the extra money and weight if i want to carry it around all the time? if anyone has both or tested them let me know. thanks!
