ULTIMATE BOOM DRIVERS

You can also amend the default EQ settings in the dedicated app – it comes with four different presets ‘The Standard’, ‘Cramped Spaces’, ‘Voices’, and ‘Bass Jump’. Saying that, the bass sounded decent, and the soundstage felt wide and spacious, with good frequency separation. However, we found that the mid frequencies sounded recessed, and there was a lack of clarity in the trebles.

With a maximum volume of 90 decibels, this little speaker certainly packs a punch, and it has two 2-inch drivers and two 4-inch passive radiators for room-filling sound. Meanwhile, audio performance isn’t the UE Boom 3’s strong point. You can also use the magic button to directly access your playlists from a select few music providers – to do this you will need to set this feature up in the accompanying Megaboom app. You can also find control buttons on the top of the UE Boom 3, with an on/off button and a ‘magic button’, which can be used to pause, play, and skips tracks.

On the left end of the Sonos Roam (when oriented horizonatlly) is a control panel with tactile buttons for adjusting your music playback, with each end cap coming in a concave shape to protect the Roam from bumps and scrapes. The Sonos Roam’s drilled grille is limited to the front of the speaker, though its shape means you have a little more flexibility as to where you place it – you have the choice to position it horizontally for stability on uneven ground or vertically for a smaller footprint, with its triangular shape funneling sound upwards. However, only the UE Boom features a wraparound fabric grille for 360-degree music playback. Presumably, this is precisely the direction that Ultimate Invasion is headed, although even if it isn't, it is hard to imagine that whatever comes next will be any less thrilling of a development.In terms of shape and size, the Sonos Roam and the UE Boom 3 look fairly similar, with slim cylindrical builds and rubberized end caps. At the same time, doing so would firmly cement this Kang's place as the ultimate savior of his native timeline, which would stand in direct contrast to the Maker's role within it as something of a temporal colonizer. Much in the same way that the Maker is a subversion of his primary Marvel Universe counterpart in Reed Richards, revealing the latest Kang to be a variant of Nathaniel Richards would upend every expectation that readers have for the character conceptually. And, if that does prove to be true, it would also make this version of Kang the Conqueror the perfect foil to the Maker, not to mention the perfect subversion of his more popular counterparts strewn throughout the multiverse. So far, this Kang has only espoused his hatred for the Maker and the way that the villain has reshaped what his timeline could have been, so much so that creating endless legions of heroes was somehow the most appropriate response. This would not only account for the character's shift in tone and demeanor, but for the impetus behind his actions in the first place. That is, assuming they aren't anything worse.Īlthough it is possible that the Kang of Earth-6160 has some relation to the Kang of Earth-13074, it is far more likely that he is instead his own timeline's version of Nathaniel Richards. Considering how much is at stake if the Maker isn't defeated, the particulars behind Kang's motives for stopping him really aren't that important. Apart from fighting to save his own timeline from the Maker's influence, the Kang of Earth-6160 is inadvertently fighting to prevent the Maker from carrying on in the same crusade in any other reality.

There is always the chance that this Kang isn't so much a hero as he is looking out for his own interests as a conqueror, though that wouldn't matter as much as it might seem given the consequences of any potential inaction. This alone proves just how far this Kang is willing to go in order to complete the mission at hand, all while establishing him as the greatest hero of this recently uncovered timeline. All of these heroes were made with the express purpose of dismantling the Maker's empire, which all of them are more than willing to die to see happen. In that time, Kang himself and whatever help he has on hand have carefully engineered seemingly endless numbers of Ultimates ranging from Captain America to Thor. From what little readers can glean from Ultimate Invasion #3, the Kang of Earth-6160 has made his stronghold at least 6000 years ahead of his adversary's relative present.
