  • This thing sounds incredible for its size, B&O's 18-hour claim is pretty accurate, Minimalist and slick, Always good to see
  • B&O makes luxury devices priced as such: the A1 costs $250, Alexa-only, and even that requires the Alexa Android app, I don't mind, but you might: you have to use Bluetooth
  • B&O Beosound A1 (2nd Gen)8.5/10If you can afford it, yes. Is the A1 the most economical way to spend $250 on personal audio gear? Absolutely not. Beefier Bluetooth speakers from companies like Ultimate Ears are cheaper, you can get a pair of Nest Audio fo...

  • Abstract:  Audio performance is our top criteria for reviewing speakers, but aesthetics matter too. No one wants a hideous hunk of plastic pumping out tunes in their living room, regardless of how good it sounds. Not all stylish speakers back up looks with hi-fi so...

  • Exempel på ljudkvalitet,Mycket bättre lågfrekvent hantering än många högtalare,Solid batteritid,Enkel men ikonisk industriell design
  • Inget 3,5 mm-uttag,Inte riktigt 360-graders ljud,App-baserad EQ kan driva till överskott,Fortfarande kostsamt,Kan inte stereopara ny modell med gammal
  • Om du letar efter en bärbar Bluetooth-högtalare - och kan förlåta bristen på Wi-Fi, AirPlay och en 3,5 mm-port - är Bang & Olufsen Beosound A1 andra generationen oöverträffad. Med extra Alexa-röstkontroll och vattentätning är det klart överlägset det reda...
