    Bang & Olufsen Beoplay P2 Portable Bluetooth Speaker with Built-In Microphone - Black

    • Midrange and highs are smooth without any hints of distortion approaching higher volumes.
    • Next issue - the volume now only has 2 options: mute or on (and the “on” level is not very loud).
    • Clear crisp highs and decent lows at virtually any reasonable sound volume.
    • rich- Volume is great gets loud with minimal distortion- Charges with USB C like my phone
    • For music it produced impressive bass and volume but the bass was boomy and muddy, combined with a lack of treble detail it just sounded compressed and murky.
    • The volume is surprisingly loud with no distortion.
    • It is completely capable of filling an outside deck area with a volume capable of possibly annoying very nearby neighbors, all without any perceptible distortion, even with bass-heavy music
    • You can play/ pause the P2 by tapping it but the Sony has Pause/Play as well as volume and power buttons on it
    • However, in actual use at the beach, the Bang & Olufsen was far superior with better volume control and sound quality than
    • The volume doesn’t work
    • Sound is great, volume excellent
    • Enough volume and frequency range to satisfy for a little while while your in a place where it's socially acceptable to use a speaker as opposed to headphones
    • Volume and it's adjustability is limited to the device it's paired with
    • Sometimes the volume works fine other times it operates at 40% capacity even though my volume is turned up to 100%
    • This B&O is also MUCH more superior than my KEF MUO Wireless Bluetooth Speaker - Racing Blue which is roughly twice the price of the
    • If B&O makes big improvements to its app and devotes more effort to explaining how to use their stuff versus wowing potential customers with overproduced webpage marketing videos, eventually you will be able to realize the P2's full potential.
    • Compared to other B&O portable speakers, it’s the lightest of them all
    • B&O has always had a reputation for making HiFi gear that was both stylish and good sounding- the perfect stereo to compliment your MCM or Danish Modern furnshings
    • , B&O is expensive, but you are getting an excellent speaker that will probably last a decade or more.
    • The volume level is the most perplexing issue - guess B&O quality control continues to lag (obviously the company has no idea about or interest in Six Sigma).In an attempt to “fix” the problem I have uninstalled and reinstalled the B&O app, deleted and reestablished the Bluetooth connection, but neither seemed to make a difference.
    • B&O wins!I played Spotify on both speakers with the same songs by Led Zeppelin, Audioslave, NWA, Beastie Boys, and Taylor Swift
    • The instructions are online, buried at the B&O website – annoying!-Charge does seem to last a “long”
    • , B&O never fail to impress me with their signature sound.**Update**Had to take 2 star off because after about a week getting it I feel like the battery life is worse than I thought.
    • I finally only got it to work after downloading the (free) B&O Play app
    • This is the most powerful of all current B&O portable speakers.
    • This little speaker delivers big rich sound with characteristic B&O clarity way out of proportion to its diminutive size
