Beolit 20 Portable Bluetooth Speaker - Grey Mist

I miss the sounds of true stereo that I got back when records were played , attached to recievers, equalizers, and speakers rocked highs and lows. I wanted the sound in my house to sound the way a pair of Bose ear buds do. You hear everything. However Bose systems have to much bass and no equalizer. After 3 days of research I had come to 2 I thought would be what I wanted. Fluance if 70 or Bang&Olufsen beolit 20. I listened to them on You Tube with my Bose ear buds and both had the crisp clear highs I like, along with rich bass that could be controlled. I finally choose the Bang&Olufsen Beloit. It is both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, I can pair a second speaker to it and it is moveable. The Fluance weighed 80lbs and I am older that would just be to large and heavy, although the sound is amazing in comparisons. I like the Bang so much I bought a second speaker so I could really have more surround sound in the room they are in. I have an Rv and these are portable. They are pricey, the Fluance might have cost less money because one speaker would cover the room and me buying 2 Bang is double price but they are really worth it. I researched high end speakers, there are most likely even higher quality but out of my price range. So if you are looking for a speaker and are a Bose fan this beats Bose. If you are searching like I was reading all reviews all I can say is you will not regret having this speaker. There is set sounds or you can use the built in sort equalizer so you can adjust and set your sound to fit the music you are listening too. Some genres need deep bass others need highs where hear all the instruments in the background. This is money well spent for me. Very easy to pair too, there is an app to control it and it will charge your phone too.

Bought two Beolit 20s to replace a vacuum tube based stereo system that was seeing less and less use in my living room. More of the music we listen to at this point is just streamed from our phones. If I feel the need to listen to non-compressed/HD audio files, that usually occurs in the small recording studio I've built with my studio monitoring setup. With that background out of the way, I'll leave my impression of the Beolit 20. Typical Bang & Olufson design, meaning minimalist/unique form with high quality materials and excellent construction. Description of sound quality is always subjective but overall, based on my experience with audio over the past 40 years or so, I'd rate the Beolit 20 to be excellent. As compared to other bluetooth speakers I've auditioned in the past year (Sonos, Bose, HK, Ultimate Ears and JBL) the Beolit is by far the most pleasing of the bunch. Decent low end extension with fairly detailed mid-range and very nice high end extension without sounding strident. I doubt most people will be using two of these as I am in a stereo paired setup, but for those who might be interested in that, it certainly is a sound that rivals some of the higher end component stereo setups I've had over the years. For those who might be concerned with the quality of bluetooth audio codecs, there is line input via 3.5mm TRS (stereo) on the unit. If one is interested in using this as a powered speaker there's always that option, although running a pair of these in stereo will require a custom made Y-cable specifically wired for each Beolit to truly run L/R audio. But I digress. Most who buy this will be using bluetooth As for the bad, I could say say price but...you're looking at B&O, that's just the way it is. The app is fairly straightforward, stereo pairing can take an extra 30 seconds or so. Just be aware that there is a specific sequence to do it in (at least that's what my experience is). EQ on the app is useful but typically I just leave it at factory settings since so much music nowadays is just all over the map in terms of audio quality and EQ. In closing, if you want a speaker with flashing lights and all kinds of voice assistants and wifi network abilities, this isn't the speaker for you. On the other hand, if you want something elegant with excellent audiophile sound and a top notch build quality, buy the Beolit 20.

Very full, rich sound - outstandingly accurate sound quality!

In terms of sound, this is my favorite speakers (even better than B&O's more expensive speakers). Clarity is there and bass is awesome (sometimes slightly too much for some songs but you can EQ it). I also like the design and the portability. Also nice that you can place things on top & charge your phone. The 360 projection of sound is also very nice, though it is bassier on its sides due to where the subwoofer is, and it is quieter behind.

Love the sound. Bought two. Review would be 5 stars but B&O needs to update the app to connect to sound settings. B&O noted an app update is pending.

You really HAVE TO GET THE APP to make this work well. The free app has an equalizer (which you set) optimized for your specific speaker. The sound is spectacular with Apple Music set at lossless download (Spotify is lower resolution and tinny btw) and the app set to optimal. You can select other sound modes in the app, as well as save your own sound set up to use later. Before you start your music, turn on the app and leave it on, so the music will process through the app. Without the app it’s very good, but not amazing. With the app it is spectacular. Also, straight out of the box it has NO charge so it plays VERY quietly. Once it is properly charged it will blow your doors off! All of this would be nice to have explained in some kind of instruction booklet but the instructions they supply are inadequate.

Honest review time! This speaker's got great sound and EQ, but connectivity issues and outdated Bluetooth are a bummer. 5-watt wireless charging is disappointing. If you're looking for a deal, it's worth a look, but be cautious with second-hand purchases. My 'like new' item was a mess - loose packaging and dirty. Not worth 5 stars, and I've got evidence for Amazon. For this price, I'd expect more, like LDAC or high-res audio. The design is beautiful and elegant, but the specs don't match.

Purchased the Beoplay ex a few years ago and wanted to jump into something different from them. Purchased it on a Black Friday sale for a decent price and wow. This small speaker has some of the best sound quality out there for its size. It’s beautiful in every aspect from the nice sleek design to the deep rich bass you feel when listening to tunes. I even took it on a fashion shoot because it looked so nice! Will definitely look into other products in the future.

Bocina de gran sonido, aplicación para equalizar y sintoniza estaciones de radio de diferentes estados y países, bajos profundos, sonido claro, batería dura bastante, carga el teléfono de manera inalambrica en la parte de arriba, se conecta rápidamente, super recomendable, cargador tipo C. Materiales de piel, aluminio elegante.

Sonido excelente.

When it's not plugged into the charger, it makes a sound like it's not getting a signal.

BANG & OLUFSEN Beolit 20 beklentimin üzerinde çıktı. Özellikle ses sahnesi, bas derinliği ve detay ayrımı bu boyuttaki taşınabilir bir hoparlör için oldukça etkileyici. Tasarım kalitesi ve kullanılan malzemeler de ürünün premium hissini gerçekten yansıtıyor. Kablosuz şarj pedinin entegre olması günlük kullanımda ciddi bir avantaj sağlıyor. Hem müzik dinleyip hem telefonu şarj edebilmek oldukça pratik. 3.5 mm giriş desteği de farklı cihazlarla kullanım esnekliği sunuyor. Amazon satıcısından sorunsuz şekilde teslim aldım. Eğer tekrar uygun bir fiyata denk gelirsem stereo eşleştirme için bir adet daha eklemeyi düşünüyorum. Taşınabilir bir Bluetooth hoparlörde hem güçlü ses hem de şık tasarım arayanlara rahatlıkla tavsiye ederim.

Wahnsin Teil der Sound ist perfekt. Ein minus: Die Bedienungselemente nicht beleuchtet.Wenn etwas dunkel wird dann brauchen Sie eine Taschenlampe.Schade für das Geld?
