It would be a big help, if it was possible to adjust the bass and treble. IMO it sounds too 'boomy'

Yes it is interesting that nobody has commented much on the BS35. Does this suggest it is a dud product with little to no sales?

I liked the BeoSound 35 quite a bit when I saw it at the dealer.  It was not the best place to really evaluate the sound, but it did seem good to me.  I would have considered it more if I could fit it in.  It would have to be around 87 cm instead of 100 cm.  The BeoSound 1 and 2 are much easier to place!

That's good to know but what about here on Beoworld, with so many enthusiasts for the brand? Has anyone actually bought one?

I have the BS1 in my homeoffice since September - where it performs gorgeous. The room is not too big so the BS1 is sufficient. When I first listened to it @ BEO in Munich it sounded nice - but not impressive. But in my homeoffice it was completely different! It sounds great. I had the Naim Muso at it was very sensitive to where it is placed and sounded different when I changed my location. The BS1 offers an excellent sound on every place no matter where I am in my office. I would not recommend it for bigger rooms. Tests are almost completely useless for speakers when you don’t know the room. I had Martin Logans and you could imagine that they sound only perfect where the location is suited. The Naim Muso sounds good if you find a good place for it and sitting in front of it - but different if you move within the room. And btw: the app for Muso is even worse than the beomusic app for iOS 😜

I never ever would buy a speaker without having listened to it at home before! Never!

The new Bang & Olufsen app for Android is excellent and completely different. I hope the iOS app will be similar soon.

I had a listen to the BS1 this afternoon at my dealer...

I actually urged to my dealer because @Roger said that the update for the Moment is not expected in week 51 but somewhere in 2017 (?). Its true 🙁

Spend some time to listen to the A6 and the BS1(I know you actually can't compare them), and I was astonished how good the BS1 is sounding knowing it comes from only a 4 inch speaker.

Its definitely my choice for a small bathroom, or to replace my BL2000 now in this room. The only thing that holds me back at present is the incapability to use it with a remote, any remote.

Therefore, the A6 is capable to use with an Essence remote, and that is worth an extra point for this speaker.

Anyway, I am baffled from the BS1 and find it a very good sounding speaker expect doing very well in a small room.

Really? on Android? Then you're very lucky, it works not as expected from my Android phone.

I've had the Beosound 1 at home last weekend and it really did a great job in case it has enough room around itself. it's really a beast when you turn the volume up, always having an easyness and vividness that is great. but, sadly, the more i came to the walls, the more the deep frequencies took control. i checked it on the sill in the kitchen, where it was supposed to have it's place and it produces too much bass there, for example i couldn't follow the dialogues of the joined TV-signal at normal level because it was overlayed by the other noises. i hope the new m5 will fit better in my small kitchen.

Yes, it is an impressive speaker but as you say, quite sensitive to where it is placed. I experienced the same thing when placed it on the kitchen sill. Too boomy. I´m told that the BS1 will get the same tone controls that A6 got the other day, so that will hopefully help to tune the BS1 to where it is placed.
