Beosound A1 2nd Gen Sound Comparison vs Beoplay P6 and Vifa Oslo

[@MrCow99987]

Keep doing what you're doing! Your sound comparisons are unmatched. I can really see the progress you've made on your recordings in the past couple of years. The editing and cleanness of your videos are ON POINT! By the way, do you perhaps plan on doing any comparisons with the Anker Soundcore Motion+? It may not be a Vifa Helsinki, but I still think it remains one of the best value speakers, and my videos for my custom EQ settings have been taken really well by the community. It'd perhaps be interesting to hear it against the Denon Envaya DSB 250 or maybe even the Minirig 3.

[@techkistenet]

thanks! I have owned the motion plus some months ago, but didnt manage to make a video with it, sorry. But you are right, it is a good speaker for its price!

[@areaman714]

I have two motion+ speakers that 8 travel with. When they are parief together, they fill a large hotel room spectacularly and with ease! I rarely push these beyond 50% volume as well. Dollar for dollar, I'm not sure one can find a better portable sound combination.

[@SMFJose]

I don't agree!

[@martinlindberg1983]

A1 2gen sounds great for the size and so much better than 1gen which had bass artifacts and too much treble (apparently only noticed if you are familiar to natural reproduction of sound that very few people seems to write about...) Vifa only playing at 35% should perhaps been used with Night mode or Boosted mode as it does not have low level bass compensation as the other two??? Vifa does need an app to really shine (my Helsinki for sure), but is not available for the moment since the Chinese bought the Vifa brand - too sad!!! By the way, thank you for excellent sound comparison - one of the best on YT. At this sound level A1 2gen wins due to size, IMO.

[@amys7089]

Great comparison..! I’m currently using a1 2nd gen and it sounds different when you hang it towards you though

[@o_durminte]

The Beoplay sounds great.

[@jackjackie3152]

Vifa oslo very acoustic but they all sound very beautiful, it is difficult to choose a winner, here it is only about the tastes of the listener.

[@sachininspright]

You can listen to the atmosphere around the singer in the Vifa, which you cant in the other two... which sizewise dont seem in the same league anyway.

[@HelMut-mit-Pumpe]

Juhhhu techkiste. Eine Frage gibt es eigentlich ein Update für den Oslo ? Es gibt ihn grade für 200€ . Und hast du bei dem Helsinki das Update drauf gepackt ? Grüße

[@techkistenet]

das Update bezieht sich jeweils auf die App nicht auf die Vifa-Speaker. Leider wurde die App für die Bluetooth-Modelle aus den App-Stores entfernt. Es soll noch vereinzelt APKs für Android geben. Ansonsten wird es aktuell schwer überhaupt noch die Tunings zu ändern. Meine Apps und Speaker sind in den Videos aber immer auf dem aktuellen Stand.

[@HelMut-mit-Pumpe]

@@techkistenet Danke dir für die schnelle Antwort. Ja und bei Ios gibt es die garnicht mehr . Was ich bei meinem Oslo seltsam finde ist die Akku Leistung . Die kommt mir so kurz vor.

[@techkistenet]

das kommt auf die Lautstärke an. Auf maximal ist er nach 2,5 Std platt, glaube ich. Auf halber Lautstärke hält er gut 9 Stunden durch

[@noupot]

I think I’ll buy the Beosound...

[@TheAdycory]

Viva🎉🎉🎉

[@saraiaretxa3486]

Me gusta más el a1 con diferencia, El p6 parece que está súper contenido, será por el tamaño y al vida tiende un poquito al treble, es demasiado equilibrado para mi gusto, ya sabemos que en cuanto se mete treble se pierden matices y contundencia, un poquito más de energía le falta..al menos si es que vienen así x defecto de fábrica

[@garitube09]

P6 really sounded a class apart..!

[@MrCow99987]

Indeed... in a bad way. It sounded hollow and wonky compared to the other two . The A1 2nd gen sounded the most open due to its design, but the Oslo was the clear winner for me - the treble on it is just beautiful.

[@garitube09]

@@MrCow99987 Even I was a bit surprised by the way Oslo performed here. Its treble was apparently overpowering the mids and lows which never usually happens. A1 was pretty good but P6 had better bass with very similar sound signature and it didn't really sound to me the way you described it. Perhaps we just have different tastes and expectations.

[@trilingualkid]

not really in the same class. Oslo is big, its more like Home portable, the helsinki probaly come closer to the P6, the A1 is probaly more of the reykjavik. Not that I call it a bad comparison because he obviously takes time to do it, but these are not really comparable. Not to mention that the Oslo is charged by an actual DC adapter.

[@garitube09]

@@trilingualkid Agreed. Also the configurations are very different with A1 being the only mono speaker. While A1 and P6 are omnidirectional, Oslo is mostly (barring its rear woofer) directional. Apparently we are comparing apples and oranges but still as you mentioned it's well made and quite likeable.

[@yoshiyakusamura7405]

P6 is awesome. Oslo is not so good. It is overrated speaker.

[@legendaryblood1937]

Vifa easily wins with a HIFI tuning... too bad its very pricy

[@timleng4404]

If you don’t mind used. Get it from eBay and replace the battery.

[@patrickmaloy5262]

It's too bad Vifa are no longer a Danish company.

[@migks37]

Well done.

[@issounightcluboff7514]

Beolit 17 vs boombox 2 plz

[@tel156]

I go for A1 2nd gen. P6 sounds nice but too much bass, I suppose.

[@Karakoram35rus]

👍

[@romainclavreul4739]

peopeo vs diamondbox M3 :)

[@erickstirling5617]

compare 3 speakers different on my MacBookpro is like to compare F1 to make shopping in the city. Sorry!

[@saraiaretxa3486]

[@yoshiyakusamura7405]

P6.

[@gdjbiblos]

p6 win

[@lukabosnjak3829]

Joke?

[@UnrealTournament420]

Vifa is in a different league

[@SMFJose]

All sound sucks!

[@legendaryblood1937]

Are you sure? Cause Vifa is the best in accuracy.. unmatched

[@migks37]

@@legendaryblood1937nd the most boring… the A1 is actually the flattest tuned and natural… for sure you have heard that the Vifa Oslo is flat, but that’s not true. Yes it sounds very precise and refined, but not flat

[@legendaryblood1937]

@@migks37 Flattest tuned and Natural? LoL even at normal levels the mid bass gets compressed just to produce a rumbly deep bass and that's not what you must call Natural ... Also some of the reviewers that provide a frequency response chart and all i see is dips and peaks .. How can you even call that Natural? Sound dispersion is also bad that's why they have to boost the treble to much for off axis listening.

[@lukabosnjak3829]

​​@@migks37 Who ever told you that Oslo is not the flattest speaker here has no clue... Has some slight dip @300hz and upper treable has that typical Vifa line but otherwise smooth, linear and extremely sweet sounding. Actually smoother than some studio monitors Also accuracy is not boring, it lets you to listen to music and coloration and boosts of a speaker
