IP ratings is the rank of protection given by a casing, against solids and water. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value refers to protection against solids such as dust, while the second refers to protection against liquids (sweat).
Having a value of IPX4, the Urbanista Copenhagen's rating for solids indicates that no data available to specify a protection rating, and of liquids that they can withstand low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes.
Compared to the Urbanista Copenhagen, JBL Live Pro 2 have a rating of IPX5 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,
JBL Live Pro 2 has a higher liquid rating than Urbanista Copenhagen
The JBL Live Pro 2 have a weight of 9.6g . We consider a lower weight best for the reason that lighter devices are more comfortable to transport.

which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Urbanista Copenhagen by 1mm
, as many tend to believe that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty producing high frequencies so yes, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not mean that they deliver better quality sound.
Urbanista Copenhagen's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio device generates low recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
JBL Live Pro 2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can make sound with equal bass
The Urbanista Copenhagen's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well a particular audio device generates high audible frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal on its way through.
JBL Live Pro 2's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
both devices can generate equal treble
SPL, is the pressure level of sound, measured in decibels, dB, Urbanista Copenhagen's measurement is 115dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
JBL Live Pro 2's sound pressure level measurement is 93dB/mW. The sound pressure level, a device is can be considered differently by separate people, so we need to have a way of getting a standard measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms.
