#8 B&O Beosound Balance: $3,300 each B&H Photo Video eBay
Pros: A Wi-Fi smart speaker with a wood base and seven drivers: two 5.25” woofers, four full-range drivers and a 3/4” tweeter, with 850W of amplification and a choice of directional or room-filling sound. Audio Science Review measured a preference score of 0.39 that reaches 2.59 with an ideal subwoofer, with 0.87 listening window deviation. Measured bass extension of 54.2Hz (-3dB).
Cons: Audio Science Review found a very uneven response, for a preference score of only 0.39 that reaches 2.59 with an ideal subwoofer, so its sound does not match its price. Bass reaches 54.2Hz (-3dB) and about 38Hz (-10dB).
How it compares: Just above it: Denon Home 350 - $2551 cheaper.
