Very excited to receive the BS2 during the Thanksgiving, I guess this might be a few of very first models shipped out to customers.
I am a Non-native English speaker, if there are any grammar issues, plz ignore 😁
This model is Made In China.
The Aluminum extrusion and quality is pretty good.
It looks more heavier than it actually does.
Sound
Test Sources:
iPhone 6, 7 Plus, iPod Video, Macbook pro
Connection: Bluetooth. My audio cable is on the way, expecting a better sound quality from cable connection(might be).
Test Media (Applelossless to m4a format):
Four season, Hotel California, Hurt by Jonny Cash, Love Train by Wolfmother, What you know by Two Door Cinema Club, Youtube video and music.
Feelings:
On the condition of Volume 70%-100%
Bass is strong. 8/10
If you expect a crystal clear strong bass, this speaker works way much better on the non-electrical bass created by real drum, not the software. Bass from post production like DJ, is ok, not crystal clear.
Acoustic, awesome. 10/10
From mid-range to hi frequency, this speaker does perform a decent job in acoustic music.
Jazz, pretty good. 9/10
Classical, awesome. 10/10
Each instrument on the stage can be clearly distinguished when volume above 60-70%.
Best range for listening: 1-5 meters (at least for me)
On the condition of Volume 30%-70%
Bass is a little bit weak. 4/10
Acoustic, good. 6/10
Jazz, good. 5/10
Classical, awesome. 6/10
If you listen to music in a normal volume or lower, Beoplay A2 or A6 might be a little better on sound performance. BS2 is good for a middle to high volume performance, no matter the size of room and location you place it.
I was struggling between A9 and BS2 before, I would said BS2 is good enough for a normal use, especially the size is easy to move between rooms. And I heard that some of A9 has issue on wireless connection. But both design is pretty good, worth your money.
