Hi all,
I am looking for a speaker in my living room and I noticed that the price of 1 beolab 8 is closed to 1 beosound 2.
Of course these 2 speakers are different, especially the tweeters which has 2 different positions.
But beyond this difference, which speaker would you pick for listening music and/or radio? (and why?)
Thanks,
Vincent

1x beolab 8 vs 1 beosound 2

I think it depends on where you will place the speaker. The Beosound 2 is very versatile since the sound is dispersed 360 degrees. I can put it in the middle of the room and works great. The Beolab 8 is also great sound, but must be “facing” where you want sound. I tried different areas in the middle of my living room and it didn’t work the same way. Now I have a pair at the front of the room which sound amazing, but they are more limited in placement options.
