Bang & Olufsen Beosound Explore - Wireless Portable Outdoor Bluetooth speaker, IP 67 Dustproof and Waterproof, Green

I've seen a lot of negative feedback on this one, so I thought I'd share my thoughts. First and foremost, keep in mind that not all speakers are suitable for everyone. Speakers are similar to clothing, perfumes, and other items in that you select them based on your preferences; however, in order to purchase the correct one (speakers), you must first ask yourself a few questions. What type of music do I like to listen to? With which type of brand do I identify? I'm not sure what I'm hoping for. True, the deep bass on this portable speaker isn't particularly strong, but it's present. The voicing, on the other hand, is fantastic. The vocals are clear and warm, and the speaker's ability to play a song with many different sounds and instruments is impressive for such a small portable speaker. br>br>I have a number of portable speakers, including the Bose revolve, but in most cases, I prefer the Explore. Again, if you're looking for a speaker for extreme bass music, this isn't it; however, if you enjoy vocal music or smooth jazz like Diana Krall, you'll enjoy it. br>br>If you want a speaker for a party, this is not the one for you; however, if you want a speaker to accompany you on your walks or have with you in your office or home without stealing all of your attention, this is the one for you because, while this little speaker can get loud, it does so with class and without being obnoxious, it is the one for you. It appeals to me. br>br>I almost forgot. . . the construction quality is excellent!.

This speaker appeals to me greatly! br>br>I had a Bose revolve for three years before it died, so I'm looking for a portable speaker to replace it. br>br>Here's what I've got on my to-do list:br>- -br>Portablebr>-br>-br>- -br>-br>-br>-br>-b sound qualitybr>br>I experimented with Sonos roam, Marshall Emberton, Bose's revolve II, and B&O Play. Explore, Q's A1 generation 2, and Q's A1 generation 1. br>br>I recommend that anyone considering purchasing a speaker listen to the sound for themselves rather than reading a lot of biased reviews online. br>br>I primarily use this speaker in the shower and on the tennis court, and I listen to classical and popular music. br>I chose Explore because it is capable of presenting the music I enjoy in a very good and pleasant manner. Quality of sound: br>br> br>Bose's sound is nice, but it over-emphasizes bass to the point where the music becomes unlistenable; Sonos' Roam comes in second. up, but the bass is too soft, and the middle is too piercing. For popular music, Emberton is fantastic, but some of the wind instruments sound off in classical music. From B, the A1 Q is unusually dispersed, to the point where the focus has strayed too far. Explore is a small speaker with the typical small speaker flaw of closed sound, but it also has the ability to produce a pleasing balance, which I appreciate. Functions: br>br> br>The last thing I want is for Alexa/Siri enabled smart speakers to record my shower singing, so this speaker is the best option for privacy. br>br>I recommend downloading the app and playing around with it to find the sound you like! For me, it's somewhere in the middle of warm and energetic, as shown in the image.

The H9 and E8 from Bang & Olufsen will be released in 2020, and we are very excited about them. I assumed I'd found a company that could build the Rolls Royce of electronics, and that they couldn't make a mistake. They did a good job. Beosound Explore is a s**ttttttttttttttttttt At the same price point, Bose easily outperforms them, and my Bose Revolve is three years old. These are so bad that I'm looking into whether or not the company has changed hands.

The majority of the bad reviews I've seen for the B The bass (or lack thereof) is mentioned by O Explore. The speaker does not sound great right out of the box; it has a flat sound. However, all you have to do is get the B version. O app, connect it to the speaker, and adjust the equalizer with it. The bass isn't as earthy as you might think. It's shaky, but if you want it to be, it'll be there. The speaker looks great, seems to be built like a tank, and is a great portable size; it won't be a party speaker, but it should last for 99 years. 9% of the other uses of a wireless bluetooth speaker Speakers are very personal, so unless they get a B-, some people aren't going to be happy either way. S, but again, download the app and experiment with the sound profile; I believe you'll be pleased with the results. I experimented with a variety of musical styles, ranging from hip-hop to electronica. I'm very pleased with the speaker, which can play everything from hip hop to rock to instrumental music. It truly is 360 sound, and it sounds fantastic from every angle. br>br>Recent changes: br>br> This gets a five-star rating from me. I've spent some more time with it and am really impressed with how clean and clear the speaker is. Everything I play sounds fantastic, and the bass is still present. At $199, I believe it is slightly overpriced, but not outrageously so, and if you're on the fence, wait for a gently used warehouse deal.

There are a lot of portable speakers out there, and they all sound the same. The audio quality is outstanding. This speaker is well-made and has a long battery life, but it lacks the distinct B sound. The audio quality is outstanding. This item was returned because I bought a speaker for its sound quality rather than its appearance. The bass was flat, and the overall sound was inferior to that of my Bose products. I'm not sure if a firmware update would help the sound, but at this price, I couldn't afford to wait.

O products. . . but this one is truly terrible. The sound quality is poor, resembling a $30 Bluetooth from Ross or TJ Max.

But there's room for more bass. It's well-made. I was underwhelmed by the bass, as I have the B model. The sound is incredible, especially at 15 and 17. I suppose the bass isn't great because it's such a small unit. Overall, I am very pleased with the sound quality, which is well balanced and clear. It's perfect for the space because I use it in our master bathroom. However, more bass would be beneficial.
