5:27 conclusion

Today I picked up the Bang and Olufsen A1 gen 2 and the Explore! They are definitely a premium brand, specifically because of the aluminum chasis used on both and the above average battery time. But the special part of these is how they produce the upper mids for vocals - with an almost magical quality. However, I still find the staple bluetooth speakers like the Marshall Emberton, Bose Soundlink Flex, and JBL Flip 5 to be a better buy and produce the full spectrum of sound a bit better. Hope you enjoy the review. If you are reading this whole paragraph, what are you doing with your life? Go outside and go for a walk or something, or do something nice for your parents. Gold Star for you for reading though.
