X4i vs X6

What the X4i and X6 have in common

Both the X4i and X6 are party speakers designed for loud playback and social use. They share several core features, including:

• Bluetooth wireless playback
• Built-in LED lighting effects
• Bass enhancement controls
• Support for wired audio sources
• Designed for parties, events, and group listening

Both models are intended for entertainment use rather than professional audio systems.

Key differences at a glance

Wired audio input (3.5mm AUX)

Both models support wired audio playback.

• X4i includes a 3.5mm AUX input for connecting devices such as TVs or audio sources without Bluetooth
• X6 includes a 3.5mm AUX input and is designed to support multiple input sources

If you need a simple wired connection, both speakers support this.

If you require multiple inputs or an instrument connection, X6 is designed for that purpose.

Microphone and input options

This is a key difference between the two models.

• X4i supports wireless microphones, offering a clean, cable-free setup
• X6 supports corded microphones and instrument input, making it suitable for performance-style or multi-input setups

If you prefer wireless microphones and a simpler setup, X4i may be more suitable.

If you need multiple inputs or plan to connect microphones or an instrument directly, X6 is designed for that role.

Size, output, and portability

• X4i is designed to balance portability with party-level sound
• X6 is significantly larger and designed to deliver much higher output from a single speaker

X4i is easier to move and store, while X6 prioritises power over portability.

DUO mode and sound coverage

Both X4i and X6 support DUO mode, allowing two compatible speakers to be paired together for wider sound coverage.

DUO mode is useful when spreading sound across a larger area, while the X6 also focuses on delivering higher output from each individual unit.

Which one should you choose?

Choose X4i if you:

• Want a more portable party speaker
• Prefer wireless microphone support
• Plan to use DUO mode with two speakers
• Use the speaker in small to medium spaces

Choose X6 if you:

• Need very high volume from a single speaker
• Use corded microphones or instruments
• Want multiple input options
• Are prioritising power over portability
