General
----------------
The device is relatively heavy, which makes a high impression on me. It crunches or crack nothing and thus appears to be very well made.
The design is very nice in my opinion, no bright colors, no weird patterns. I think you can remodel his apartment a couple of times, the speaker complements any interior. The LED for status display is also nice unobtrusive / small. You can also set up the speakers in the bedroom without half the space to illuminate.
To have his pleasure with this speaker you have to necessarily have a Spotify Premium account and additionally, I recommend an Android or Apple smartphone / tablet. The Spotify app from the Windows Store has (at the time, considered the date on which this review was created) is not an option to stream the music.
Sound
-------
The sound is of course the main criterion, which is worth nothing without the beautiful design. But here you will not be disappointed - established once neat (preferably approximately at eye level or slightly below) you can not complain!
Loud enough for a small house party, it is also, and of course at some point limits are reached.
Particularities
--------------------
Design, sound, quality and price are very balanced here, here now come a few Punket which may be decisive for the purchase may
- The device has buttons for volume, track selection and play / pause. I find that very useful and do not want to miss it! Have had a small Bluetooth speakers in the bathroom and did not like it etc. to touch especially with wet hands my phone to make any adjustments or just briefly to stop the music. Now it goes without a cell phone!
- I'm still go up a speaker because I like the following: One pushes to a speaker the pause button, because you want to, for example, from the bathroom to the kitchen and pressed in the next room easily on the play - button the next device and the playback. starts very simply where the other device has ceased. This is awesome and really exactly what I was looking for for years. Philips advertises it as "Follow me" function.
Conclusion
------
Who about is aware that a Spotify Premium account and Apple / Android (currently no Windows Phone Support, but I bet it's just a matter of time, the Spotify app already exist for Windows Phone ...) is imperative here can safely access, I could find no better at a reasonable price!
Anyone traveling without Spotify should look at the Philips Fidelio A5 (AW5000 / 10) rather.
