The Beosound A1 is one of the best-sounding outdoor speakers we’ve come across. We gave it five-stars when we reviewed and lauded it with an award, that’s how highly we think of this wireless speaker.
It is the first outdoor Bluetooth speaker to support Alexa, which it does through linking to the Alexa app on your mobile device. If you have something on your mind, or want to know what the weather is like before you head out to use the speaker, you can find out before you venture outside with the Beosound A1.
It’ll be able to handle wet conditions with its IP67 waterproof design, and despite having the shape of an over-sized hockey puck the Beosound A1 is an elegantly designed speaker that looks and feels great to use.
Battery life is 18 hours at typical listening volume, and with aptX Bluetooth support you could stream to higher quality music from the likes of Tidal and Qobuz. Stereo pairing is a possibility if you purchase two speakers.
And the Beosound A1 delivers an exceptional sound for its size. Bass is surprisingly good, its neutral performance ensures there clarity and detail throughout the frequency range, with an excellent vocal performance and plenty of dynamism. Three years on and the Beosound A1 remains one of the best-sounding outdoor speakers we’ve tested.
