No More Bose
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great base but high voices or cymbals sound like a bunch of static or white noise. Returned first one as I thought it must be defective. Second one is as bad or worse so it's going back too. Expected more from the Bose name. Will try a different brand.

No Bang for your buck
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pros: Very Clear Sound, form factor, suitable for indoor use Cons: No EQ for Bass/Treble, Party Mode has connection issues if both speakers are connected to 1 source, Not very Loud (not suitable for outdoor use)

Posted .Thanks for your review! I'm glad you like the sound of the SoundLink Flex. It's true that EQ must be controlled from the connected device, or e.g. by bringing the speaker closer to a wall to increase bass. When setting up Party mode, make sure only 1 speaker is connected, otherwise setup won't work. Lastly, the Flex can indeed be used outdoors, but the sound won't reflect off walls like it will indoors. Warm regards, Fiona M. - Bose Customer Support

Not Much Bang For Your Buck

Posted .Thanks for your review. I'm happy you like the SoundLink Flex's sound! EQ must be controlled from the connected device, or e.g. by bringing the speaker closer to a wall or corner to increase bass. For Party mode, make sure only 1 speaker is connected to begin with, otherwise the process won't work. The Flex can be used outdoors (thanks to its IP67 rating), however the sound won't reflect off walls like it will indoors. Our customer support team would be very happy to assist with any app-related issues you're having. Regards, Fiona M. - Bose Customer Support
