Excellent audio performance, with clear, defined highs and powerful, clean bass response. Stunning and bizarre design. Streams audio via AirPlay and DLNA. Easy set-up.
Prohibitively expensive. Your friends might be jealous if you own one
The Bang & Olufsen BeoPlay A9 speaker system delivers crisp, full-bodied, room-filling sound, and it looks smashing doing it. The price, however, isn't for the faint of heart....
Abstract: We can see the conversation at B&O HQ now . It'll have been one of those painful engineer versus designer moments that major technology companies see every day. "Guys we need to design our next speaker to look like an archery target," explains the B&O des...
Abstract: The Play:1 Sonos system has an undeniably classy design with a premium price to match - but it's worth it. The hifi sound quality and performance of the speaker system allows for minimal distortionfrom a small unit, even at load volumes. Premium speake...
Abstract: This is the latest remarkable, peculiar, beautiful, wholly desirable room-making sound system in B&O's BeoPlay range – the Danish delights of which I have banged (and Olufsen-ed) on about on Technopolis TV. But first I have to tell you this entirely grat...

Excellent audio performance, Bizarre yet stunning design, Streams audio via AirPlay and DLNA, Easy to set up
Prohibitively expensive, Could cause jealousy among friends!
So, what’s the verdict on this approaching £2,000 system? It's unfair to compare it head-to-head with the less pricey Libratone Lounge we mentioned previously, even though that’s still a very expensive system. But, for reference, the A9 crushes the Loun...
Jaw droppingly powerful, Rich, balanced bass, midrange and high frequency performance, Stylish, unique design
Expensive, if not unreasonably so, B&O setup app glitchy, Wall mount an optional extra
The B&O BeoPlay A9 is both bonkers and brilliant, radical and subtle, style and substance and these aren't qualities we see very often. For sure it won't suit all tastes, budgets and properties but it should be celebrated for daring to be different and su...

Like the V1, A3 and portable Beolit 12, the BeoPlay A9 speaker is certainly unique in terms of looks and sports a great clutter-free design but you'd better have a decent amount of floor space or room on the wall to position it.We loved the discreet touch...
Incredibly high price point, no Bluetooth connectivity
So who exactly is the A9 suited for? Well it’s ideal for anyone who lives in a spacious or loft apartment, who’s looking for an alternative sound setup than bulky black boxes and speakers. The A9 is certainly a work of art and an attention grabber, but...
La puissance sonore, L'image stéréo bien restituée, La finesse des écoutes, Un objet design
Un prix élevé, Pas de télécommande, Pas de Bluetooth AptX, L'accès à la connectique et aux réglages de position
La BeoPlay A9 est une enceinte active hors-norme ! Un système original par son design et par sa qualité sonore, la puissance est impressionnante. Cette enceinte assure à tous les niveaux, son prix reste son principal handicap mais c'est du B&O....
