Beosound Balance from Hell
Hi, it's probably not a Balance issue, but rather a problem with the latest app update. I've also had some connectivity problems with my Beosound A5s. It's just a guess, but I never had any connectivity problems until this last update a few days ago.

Emerge stereo vs A5? Help me choose!!
I live in a fairly small apartment, and have a Beosound Level in the living room, and a single Emerge speaker in my bedroom. I would say for my living space, the Level is “too big” in terms of room filling sound and I typically run it at 25-30% max volume level. The A5 is louder and more bassy than

Comparing B&O to any other company is futile and here's why...
B&O didn't then and doesn't now need to make many different products. nor even strive to plug price points. For years, what set them aside was the immediate impression of materials other companies tended not to use...glass, aluminum, iron...which matched the touch of those materials. married to a li

Home Audio Setup
If you can afford it, sure. For me it would be way too expensive. I'd love two A9 in the living room playing together with my A5 in the kitchen and a Level or two in the bedroom. I have a mixed WiiM/AudioPro/Hyperboom multiroom setup and in addition a few B&O devices, mostly for portable/outdoor use

Why are mainstream wireless BT speakers so bad?
I spotted my daughter's wish list and it said Bluetooth speakers. So I bought her a pair of Devialet Phantoms 1 108db. Apparently she wanted a pocket size speaker. Beosound speakers have Mozart software platform that has Bluetooth, wi-fi, uPnP, DLNA, Chromecast, Airplay 2 and in the Beolab 8 and 28

Beoplay A8 - Old flagship vs modern cheap speakers
Yeah that sets the bass for corner, wall or freestanding. And the a5, beolit 15 and beosound level are mono speakers. This one is true stereo

Best portable speaker (best sound)
I ended up with the Move 2 for now. The sound is decent for it's size and it just works which is neat. Doesn't blow me away by any means. Before that I bought the Beosound A5 which sounded really good, but I ran into countless issues and gave it back. What I'm looking for doesn't exist atm., so I vi

Sub for A5 stereo?
Yes but you would not like the efforts you have to go through to make them work. For sub woofer and B&O current models only use WiSA, or powerlink only Beolab 19 and a B&O transmitter or Beosound Theatre. I used a Receiver 1 to a Meridian M60C with Beolab 28. 17 and 19. Took a long time to drop £10k

How much better is the balance compare to the beosound A5 im dissapointed on the sound problem the A5 has it sounds way to low on some music and loudish on some songs is ridiculous just how expensive it is and the beolit20 does not have that volume problem
