Give some distance from the wall and other objects, it sounds better with more space around it. Solid surface is also important, as Roar 2 performs best when placed on a solid surface.
A subjective observation definitely, but I prefer to position it horizontally. So far from my experience, somehow horizontal placement sounds nicer and more pleasing. I would say Creative did a good job on SB Roar 2 tuning!ĭue to the one side placement of all the active drivers, Sound Blaster Roar 2 has dual orientation, and can be positioned either vertically or horizontally. The tonality tuning is very good and sounds pleasing. A little mid-centric, but in a nice way, and quite expected from a speaker in this size.
So far I didn’t hear any annoying peaks or dips in the tonality, and tonality is actually sounded quite nice. But when listening to a classical chamber music or solo performance, it would be nice to have a little increase in treble. It does have ‘TeraBass’ and ‘Roar’ mode to add some oomph, and I find it especially useful for low volume listening. It would be nice if SB Roar 2 could have a simple treble adjustment to adjust the treble when needed. Perceived brightness is better on UE Boom, but UE Boom might sound a little bright sometimes. Compared to UE Boom that I borrowed from a friend, Roar 2 is less bright with more bass. Thanks to the excellent implementation of the passive radiators.Ĭlarity is good without causing any listening fatigue, especially good for Pop and Jazz kind of recordings.
CREATIVE SOUND BLASTER ROAR 2 MOVIE
I used Roar 2 to watch sci-fi and action movies, and I was surprised that Roar 2 has sufficient bass and dynamic to make movie sounds enjoyable, especially for a small setup like watching a movie on PC, notebook, or tablet. But don’t expect bass level like from proper bookshelf speakers, still not there yet. Roar 2 has nice bass tuning, so despite the small size, there is decent level of bass to make music sounds rich without sounding thin. The classic problem with a small speaker is always the ability to produce a decent level of bass. Vocal is really one of the Roar 2 primary strength.

Vocal sounds full with good body and clarity. It doesn’t have those typical ‘thin’ vocal sound generally associated with small speakers. Both male and female vocal rendered very nicely by Roar 2. Besides that, I was impressed especially by its vocal presentation. It has decent level of bass that not many speakers at Roar 2 size are able to achieve. Roar 2 could easily fill a small to medium size living room with music at pretty good loudness. It is pretty loud for a relatively small speaker. My first impression, when tried Roar 2 for the first time, was, 'Wow it sounds big!'. To include the Silicone pouch as default accessories. USB fast charging, like adopting Qualcomm® Quick Charge technology. Soft switch for microphone mute function, to avoid switching noise when muting or unmuting the microphone.
When kept in the pouch, sometimes the power button may accidently be pressed. The power button is prone to accidental press.Ī little increase in treble response and extension.īetter placement or recessed power switch. Cumbersome to carry additional 15V adapter when traveling. Various inputs: Bluetooth, USB, Line Input, and micro SD memory.

Very good Bluetooth implementation, very sensitive and stable connection. Very good sound quality and level of loudness considering the size. I guess this experience is no doubt a proof of how good the Roar 2 is. Long story short, 3 of my friends soon bought Roar 2 after they listened to it. Soon after I received Roar 2 from Creative, I brought it to the office to get general opinions from friends about it. For most users, I believe, the reduced size and weight are practically more important than those extra features.īefore I start with details, I would like to share an experience.
CREATIVE SOUND BLASTER ROAR 2 MANUAL
Being 20% more compact and around 9% lighter, Sound Blaster Roar 2 is claimed to offer similar performance to the predecessor.Īnd here is the user manual that I find very useful to understand the operation of Roar 2:Ī few features have been removed from the 1st version of Sound Blaster Roar, like USB security option which is cool but probably may not be frequently used by many users, and the stereo setup option which I think is good to have. Sound Blaster Roar 2 is the improvement of the 1st version of Sound Blaster Roar, mainly on the size and weight. I supposed to post this review early this year, but it has been delayed quite a while due to unforeseen high workload this year. Many thanks to Creative Singapore for the review sample of Creative Sound Blaster Roar 2!
