I'm undecided on which one of these to get to enable me to sit in the sun listening to the Ashes this summer. The problem as I see it is that the Beolit is a better bit of kit but the colours really put me off. I much prefer the colours the A2 comes in, especially the black and copper version. Any one know if there are any plans to introduce new colours for the Beolit, I'd delay my purchase if there are new colours coming.

A2 or Beolit 15
32 replies
Both are mobile and yes the Beolit 15 is a better sound, but the A2 is far easier to chuck in a bag. If it's just the radio and at modest volumes the A2 is perfectly adequate in my opinion.The only problem is that now the Beolit 15 has had a price drop, it is now relatively not far off the A2's price! Would you regret this in the future😂
Id go the A2 if i were you, you can chuck it around and if you're on the grass it can lay on its side etc and is easier to place wherever.
Go take a listen and see which one you prefer.
The BL15 works better if its placed down low and against a wall in a room if listening inside.
Not agree Michael. 😎The Beolit 15 have the 360 sound space technology. It sounds better in the middle of a room. Against a wall the bass is too loud.You description concern the Beolit 12. 😁 Login to view imageThe BL15 works better if its placed down low and against a wall in a room if listening inside.
The Beolit 15 sounds good wherever it is placed 😁
I went for A2, and happy with that. The sound is amazing and a good bass concidering the thin layout. Sometimes I feel a Beolit 15 would have been great to have, but the A2 is more versatile and handy to bring along.
Well, the decision has been made. A trip to my local dealership and working out what I'd use it for I ended up getting this. Black and copper A2 Login to view image
I faced the same dilemma, same issues. Liked the colors and portability/weight of the A2, and it did sound great. But (there's always a but right?), one place I wanted to use it was out by the hot tub, and with the pump and jets and being outside the ability to play louder and deeper was important, more so than throw it in a beach bag portability so it was the Beolit 15 that won out.
Really enjoy it though, but I don't think one could go wrong with either.
A bit late on this one. I thought the A2 had too much distorsion at high volume (not enough bass) so waited for Beolit 15.I immediatly thought Beolit 15 had too much bass and lowered the bass setup on Spotify.Still think it as too much bass and if I had to do it again I would go for a A2 today (black /copper).Good choice you made !
My wife takes her A2 black and copper everywhere. She really really enjoys it, and it continues to surprise me with how much punch it has.
