Tronsmart T8 vs Tronsmart T7

Short answer: the Tronsmart T8. It ranks #52 of 150 medium speakers by sound quality, rated 3.6/5, at $49.99. The Tronsmart T7 ranks #107, rated 2.8/5, at $43, $6.99 cheaper, which does not close the gap in sound quality.

The case for the Tronsmart T8: Two upward firing drivers, a woofer and two passive radiators spread sound evenly around the speaker, so placement matters less. Watch for: Against the Xiaomi Sound Outdoor, listeners in Mateusz Cholewa’s comparison found the T8 harsh and tiring, and Techder Audios’ test showed the Xiaomi Sound Party with deeper, heavier bass.

The case for the Tronsmart T7: IPX7 rated, customizable EQ app with 6 modes, pairs with second T7 for stereo, 30W output, up to 12 hours battery with LED ring off, USB-C charging, MicroSD card support. Watch for: Peaky in the upper mids and in the mid treble.

Worth knowing: the Tronsmart T7 has been discontinued and is hard to find new at this point.

Buy the Tronsmart T8. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $6.99 saving on the Tronsmart T7 is not enough to make up the difference.

The Two Speakers In Full

Tronsmart T8: $49.99 Best Buy Tronsmart eBay

Pros: Two upward firing drivers, a woofer and two passive radiators spread sound evenly around the speaker, so placement matters less. In AudioPro Reviews’ and Dresser’s comparisons most listeners preferred it to the JBL Flip 6, JBL Flip 7 and Ultimate Ears Megaboom 3 for its fuller body and less fatiguing treble, and Audioreviews.org found it stayed clean at maximum volume. It is rated for 40W, with IPX7 waterproofing, an 18 hour battery rating, app EQ, lights, a volume wheel, aux input, TF card playback, a lanyard and stereo pairing.

Cons: Against the Xiaomi Sound Outdoor, listeners in Mateusz Cholewa’s comparison found the T8 harsh and tiring, and Techder Audios’ test showed the Xiaomi Sound Party with deeper, heavier bass. Josh’s Gadgets and More preferred the cheaper Vortex Blast for smoother highs and deeper bass. Bass is rated only down to 56Hz.
