Beosound A5

All would sound better in stereo. A5 over level if you need more deep bass. Beosound 2 over both of them, balance in stereo is the one with a bigger difference than 3 mentioned

J’ai fait face au même dilemme que toi. J’ai d’abord fait la comparaison entre la Beolit 20 et la Move 2. La Sonos Move 2 pouvait envoyer plus de puissance et donc plus agréable dans le jardin, mais le son était vraiment moyen (à mon goût), la Beolit 20 sonne super bien avec un son très aéré et préc

The Beosound A1 2nd gen has great full sound, but it isn't good at playing loud. Use it in small rooms or close. Placing it near a corner or against a wall can help. I have two and sometimes use them in stereo. Sounds great! The A1 gen2 is my absolute favorite speaker for audio books. Very clear and

Currently own all 3 and use them daily. Personally the Beosound 2 is my favorite sonically speaking. But, for portability, it’s tough to decide. The B2 has great smooth bass and crisp highs. The A5 has rich bass, but like said by others, the highs are not as pronounced. It’s a warmer sound. The spea

Emerge - no one thinks it is a speaker or what it is. For podcasts and radio more than enough. Really it should not work but it does and well. Level - I think a pair or Emerge speakers are better than one stereo Level as I can space them and I like stereo even for radio drama and discussion programm

I have not tried to use the Levels without a battery in place. I would expect it power up and work normally. The battery has too many screws and at the moment it is locked to the Beosound Theatre over DPL. Emerge 45 - 22K Hz2 33 - 23K HzLevel 39 - 23K Hz stereo in single speakerA5 32 - 23K HzBalance

I demoed the level in store when I bought my first A5. Honestly it's most likely personal preference. To me the A5 sounds a lot fuller and richer than the level. Objectively the level may have a bit of a cleaner sound with maybe slightly more detail but the A5 sounds like it has soul. Powerful bass

Thanks for the great info! When I first purchased the A5 it really blew me away, but ever since the Beosound 2 arrived, I do feel the A5 is a bit more "compressed" or slightly "congested" with the vocals. Would you say that the Level will more closely align with the sonic characteristics and more fo

I had a demonstration of Emerge and Level in the store. It seemed a reasonable demonstration but was Bluetooth. When I set up a pair of Levels and used Chromecast and DLNA the speakers sound far better. I like the Levels for a more balance sound, perhaps not the deep bass of A5 and Balance but then

I’ve owned both and can say confidently that you can’t go wrong with either one. The A5 has a battery for much easier portability if that means anything to you - now or in the future. They both have tremendous bass response. The A5 is a warmer sounding speaker and I probably enjoyed it a little more
