Product Description
Ready for adventure, Beosound Explore is a tough, waterproof speaker designed for the great outdoors. Durability is part of Beosound Explore's core DNA. The tough outer shell is made from hard anodised aluminium, making it our most scratch resistant portable speaker yet. Built to withstand a fall of up to 1.5 metres or submersion in a metre of water for up to 30 minutes, Beosound Explore is a waterproof and dust resistant speaker that’s ready to accompany you on any adventure. Whether you're relaxing at the beach or taking in the views on an adrenaline-filled hiking expedition, your Bluetooth speaker can be confidently placed beside you thanks to the non-slip rubberised base. Crafted to be flexible and ultra-portable, it’s lightweight and easy to carry too. The grab-and-go design is perfect when you're on the move. You can even attach Beosound Explore to the outside of your backpack by hooking the included carabiner to it. The dual 1.8'' full range drivers deliver a huge musical punch and rich bass for such a small speaker. The grill is cut in 360-degree lines, which not only looks great but also helps create True360 omnidirectional sound. You can place your Beosound on a rock behind you, in the middle of a circle of people, or use the strap to hang it from a tent pole and the sound performance will be equally authentic. The elegant and minimalist control panel is on top of the speaker for easy access and the push buttons have been designed to work in all conditions, even if your speaker is covered in sand, water or a dusting of soil. The powerful battery offers up to 27 hours of playtime at a normal listening volume, making it easy to enjoy music when you're exploring in the wilderness or away from easy power sources. You can also stereo pair two Beosound Explore speakers for a more spacious sound, ideal if you're away with friends or hosting a garden party. No matter where your adventures take you, the uncompromising sound quality of the Beosound Explore will get you there.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
So overall I prefer the Bose sound, but I generally like B&O products so I kept B&O for a small form factor and long battery life.
- the brand
- price (if it’s on sale for $130)
- most versatile speaker I’ve found (light weight, can hang on a back pack, 100% dust and sand resistance, water resistant except for diving, can be dropped in a river, on concrete, and sand dune and it doesn’t matter, treated aluminum making it very scratch resistant)
- sounds very clear (instruments, vocals, and bass are all very separated
Cons:
- could be louder and have more bass (however, at this size being louder and having more bass is basically not possible. Also bass can be increased in the app and it doesn’t drown out the vocals like most equalizers do. For perspective, at full volume in a medium sized room me and a friend cannot really talk to each other and hear what we’re saying without yelling)
Top reviews from other countries
Very satisfied until now (several Days of test).
Very solidly Built.
I like the simple but esthetically Nice industrial design. Well done B&O!
Perfect for my office as I cannot Play loud nor boom boom bass anyway.
Very natural sound. Trebles never aggressive. The midrange is précise and very natural!!!
Bass is present and punchy but not strong. For reproducing jazz music, voices and instruments this speaker suits the best.
For bass heavy sound fans, go with other brands like Bose.
Cheers.

Though im no audiophile, so cant beguile you with technical wizardary. If your looking for a speaker for one of those loud house parties banging hippity hop this may not be right for you. But if your looking for a beautifully rugid portable bluetooth speaker. Then this could just be for you. So your pondering if i would recommend this speaker........ yes i would. It is well made and the sound is brilliant. Of course sound is a matter of perspective, some may not agree with me (but ignore them.... i'm always right) hopefully i have helped someone make a decision. If i havent i sincerly apologise.
