I have my single A5 paired with Samsung Freestyle projector. And, unfortunately, delay is present, and it’s kinda troublesome in the multiple scenarios (like YouTube and Netflix). There are no options to configure that from the projector itself. If it goes way beyond in the stereo mode, then I suppose it would be barely useful for movies.

I would suggest B&O to address that, or another option is to search for some HDMI-> USB converter that would fix such behavior via ARC if device can’t adjust delay by itself.

Found good review with frequency response test. Quite non-linear. But seems to be balanced with frequency range, overall.

Got a response from B&O that they will consider LC3 codec implementation for the future firmware updates. Please remind them to do so by querying from time to time. I suppose all of us do need to have better sound with low-energy consumption.

Can’t find any frequency response tests anywhere. Do you have one? Just wondering how linear it is, since it’s being recommended to turn off EQ. Which actually say that graph must be awesome.

Looked at it’s wireless module – quite an upgrade compared to Level and Emerge – AW-XM458 with native Bluetooth 5.3 and Wi-Fi 6.

Wondering if LC3 or LE Audio support to come – asked tech support. Since they already use some flavor of LC3 for the stereo pairing.

Can’t figure CPU and RAM specs as yet.
