, it's a rugged, well designed, and excellent sounding unit
Beolab 4000 - OMG - Clarity, punch and beautiful design - You will be in heaven
The sophisticated design with its aluminum shell casing protects your music in any location
That means a clever and somewhat minimalist design, topnotch materials and high quality finishes that should last a long time
- Battery is close to what's advertised (I play medium volume most of the time) - Classic and premium design that beats all comparable players in the same price range
I was always impressed with the A2's sound reproduction for its size but A/B'ing the A2 and the 17 showed how much better range and fullness the 17 has - and rightly so for its size
SPEAKER FUNCTIONSBluetooth pairs easily, and everything works as it should.
For a speaker with such a small footprint, this unit really pumps out sound, with a spectacular range to it as well
It has an impressive range (37-20000 Hz) and everything sounds well balanced
The range is much improved and I can walk around my entire 3-story townhouse without losing connection
The connect button is an awesome feature that ties to your phone
Yes, compared to my Jabra Max it plays better - but not close to justify more than 3 times the price (€129).The 360-degree spread is somewhat working - If you use this product where this is important - you have an important feature
I did not like this feature at all, and would have much preferred a 5 or more set of sliders to adjust the individual frequency levels.
In a worst case scenario, I'll plug in a spare 20,000mAh USB battery pack and go for a LONG time....which leads me to another great feature of this unit: USB-C charging
This feature is EXTREMELY important to me as I love my music LOUD and playing a LONG time.
I expected the Beolit 17 to blow it away (as the Beolit 12 has), but it sounded almost the same, but had WORSE bass response
I'd rather have less sound than muddy bass, shrill and over-boosted highs and so forth
2 x 35 watts Class D for bass and treble (2 x 120 watts peak power)· 1 x 5.5” long-stroke Full- Range Driver· 2 x 4” Passive Bass Radiators· 3 x 1,5
It's smooth and spacious clear and has very good deep bass.
My closing observation is that the sound quality from this speaker is truly outstanding, the highs are crisp and transparent and the bass is pleasant, strong and not muddy.
However, I have to say B&O blew me away with this speaker.
our true experience!-battery life has varied depending on loudness of use and term of use but overall is great!-It is durable and well built with a simple clean look.-It connects to your devices via Bluetooth but not far reaching or in another room-easy to connect-Easily portable at around 7lbs.-No plugs needed if charged-charge & use-Approx
The B&O Play Beolit 17 is another in the very fine line of portable B&O speakers
