How do connoisseurs view Bang & Olufsen, the leading Scandinavian audio brand?
Vol.1 Takahiro Goko

First of all, I was surprised by the packaging. There is excitement when opening the package, and the sophistication of the body material, design, round punching, and use of leather is outstanding, and there is not a single unpleasant thing about it. Like Louis Paulsen, George Jensen, and others, I felt that this is something that can only be found in Denmark. It seems to fit in well with not only Scandinavian goods, but also with Japanese antiques and any other items.

It's my first time. At first, I put it on my dining room table at home, but I had the impression that the sound was unexpectedly muffled. But when I used it outside in a large parking lot, it was great. I used them at a garage sale I held in Dazaifu and they worked great. My personal impression is that if the speakers are placed in the line of sight, the sound will be muddy, so I prefer the image of placing them on the floor in a spacious area and having the sound fall (radially) from above. Besides, the dedicated Bang & Olufsen app has an equalizer, so it's convenient now. I remember that a long time ago, I wanted a "Kenwood" equalizer.

I actually resisted Bluetooth connectivity for audio, including earphones and amplifiers, but I regret not having used it before, or rather, I wish I had used it earlier.
