Bose SoundLink Revolve

The Bose SoundLink Revolve isn't bad for music. Its sound profile is quite neutral, especially in the mid and treble ranges where vocals and lead instruments are reproduced. However, it lacks a lot of low-bass, which is disappointing for fans of bass-heavy music genres. Its 360° speaker system helps create large and wide directivity, but unfortunately, it doesn't get very loud.

The buzz in Bluetooth speakers these days is all around 360-degree audio, with the music sounding the same no matter where you are in the room. The SoundLink Revolve is Bose getting in on that omnidirectional-audio act.
