B&O Beosound A1 (2nd Gen) vs Bose Revolve 2 vs Bose Revolve+ 2 sound-comparison 

Yes it sounds so natural. Impeccable.

Absolutely not; highs are shrill and metallic, can quickly cause ear fatigue.

I got one and returned it… Very clean sound but shrill/metallic high that can easily cause ear fatigue

I tried all of these… The A1 is clean, but the highs are shrill and metallic and quickly cause ear fatigue. I returned it.

You’re the only one I’ve seen here noticing this… I returned mine for that reason. It’s nice and clean but the highs are shrill and metallic and easily cause ear fatigue. No thanks.

Overboosted Trebble that´s the trick on the A1 speaker.

A1 is nice and clean but you don’t seem to care that the highs are shrill and metallic and easily cause ear fatigue. No thanks I returned mine.

Revolve sounds better than r 2

No, it is not worth upgrade. I own both, and i like more clarity of Revolve ii, than Revolve plus. If you need for outdoor, take a look something else.

@@srdjandmitrovic I just heard the revolve II outside and it sounded very good. Are there other speakers at that price that deliver effet sound? For my ears the Bose clarity is good. For example, the jbl charge 5 is too sharp and it hurt my ears unfortunately even though the bass is heavier.

It’s a bigger speaker so the bass is a little fuller, but I’ll take the revolve over the revolve plus

true words 👍

Thanks mate. This was more informative than the actual video. 🤙

Thank you for this, though I'll say i like the B&O overall best

I just heard the revolve II outside and it sounded very good (only have the charge 5 fr jbl as reference). Are there other speakers at that price that deliver better sound? For my ears the Bose clarity is good. For example, the jbl charge 5 is too sharp and it hurt my ears unfortunately even though the bass is heavier. Maybe I’ll try the plus” irl … However, if I buy 2 of the smaller then it would be better than the plus alone right?

@@AzizIzgin The first thing I bought was 2 of the Revolve. I listened to them and found the sound missing something. I immediately sent them back and got a pair of the Revolve+ and found them so satisfying it was ridiculous. I have taken them all over the world, and they are amazing. I then got a pair of Bang and Olufsen P6 (not reviewed in the video). I recommend them highly. Then later, I got a pair of the Bang and Olufsen A1 2nd Gen, and I would not go back. I still use the Bose when I travel, but I also use the A1 2nd Gen. The sound is sublime. The bass they deliver is realistic and accurate to the track - it is not there all the time, but when you need it - there it is - thick and smooth. The thing about the A1's in stereo pair is the clarity of the highs - wow. There is no ringing or simbilance but there is that tight clarity. Female vocals are just amazing (False Alarm Mohito Mix by Becky Hill is a fantastic track to test them with). Wow, the sound is fab). I have tried them in a small garden, and they really work well. The best pair in the garden is the Bose Revolve+, but the Bang and Olufsen do an incredible job. The Bose speakers deliver more bass when outside which is exactly what you want, but the Bang and Olufsen deliver better quality. Just a little less volume. All three are amazing and I would not be parted from any of them. I do NOT use any of them as single speakers anymore - they are always used in stereo pairs. It takes a minute longer to get set up, but it is worth it. BTW The Bose Revolve Speakers have that single driver, so when they are on their own, they are trying to deliver a 2 channel sound through one speaker. When they are in stereo pair - each speaker is only trying to send one channel, so both speakers actually sound better, cleaner and more precise in the lows AND in the highs than when either is working as a single speaker. It took me a while to understand why they sounded so much better in stereo than as single speakers ....and they do sound excellent as single speakers. A bit late, but I hope that helps.

Not really… I got one and returned it. Nice clean sound but the highs are shrill and metallic can easily cause ear fatigue.

Agreed; maybe most of those here haven’t actually had one as I did. A1 is clean, but sterile with shrill/metallic highs that can easily cause ear fatigue. I’ll take the revolve over the other two.

Right 100% agreed
