Bose SoundLink Revolve+ II

The Bose SoundLink Revolve+ II is alright for music. Its fairly well-balanced sound profile makes this speaker suitable for a variety of music genres. Thanks to its 360-degree design, it has a decent soundstage with amazing directivity, so your audio should sound clear from all angles. Though this speaker can get reasonably loud, there are compression artifacts at max volume, so your audio may not sound as clear when listening at louder volumes. Unfortunately, it struggles to reproduce a deep, thumpy, and rumbling bass, which may be disappointing to fans of bass-heavy music like hip-hop or EDM. It also requires two units to play stereo sound, and has to downmix your audio to mono when using it on its own, which may not sound as immersive.
