These are not really the same size class, and that is the honest framing here. The B&O Beosound Level ranks #89 of 117 large speakers by sound quality at $2,250; the Sonos Roam 2 ranks #93 of 178 medium speakers by sound quality at $178.
The B&O Beosound Level is the longer-running pick. A sculptural luxury speaker that works on battery or mains, mounts on a wall, and streams over Wi-Fi with upgradeable modules. It is rated for 16 hours of battery against 10 for the Sonos Roam 2. It keeps a wired aux input, which the Sonos Roam 2 lacks. It plays in stereo from a single unit, unlike the Sonos Roam 2. The tradeoff: Not very deep bass, peaks in midrange.
The Sonos Roam 2 is the lighter option. A small Wi-Fi and Bluetooth speaker with water resistance, Alexa built in and Sonos multiroom support. At 0.9 lbs (429 g) it weighs much less than the B&O Beosound Level at 7.3 lbs (3.3 kg). It supports AAC Bluetooth, which the B&O Beosound Level lacks. It has an adjustable EQ, which the B&O Beosound Level lacks. The catch: Exact same sound quality as the original Sonos Roam.
Buy the B&O Beosound Level at $2,250 for a large speaker, or the Sonos Roam 2 at $178 for a medium speaker instead.
