Yes Tom, you're doing it the way I would. With the control on the 
transmitter all the way up, set your sound card output just a bit less 
than distortion. That's probably all you can do. I don't know if there is 
an adjustment in the transmitter for deviation. If so, that might be the 
next thing to try.

the kitchen has a considerable amount of volume (more than that little 
ole clock radio I keep in the bathroom) I can make it work!  But if I'm 
in the bathroom and am using that clock radio to listen to while I'm in 
the shower, sometimes it's harder to hear it (and the volume control on 
the clock radio is as loud as it can go!

Are you using the volume control on the side of the transmitter; as
opposed to just driving it harder from the sound card?  Mine seems to
have less volume, also, but it has been tollerable.

The B&W speaker is around 4 inches high by 6 inches from left to right and 3 
inches from front to back.

Sorry to only get back to you now but I was away for a while.

Problem is I am looking for something small with a good sound.

My wife will be carrying it to school she is a teacher.  She is quite small.

How big is the B&W speaker?

Regards
André

An interesting choice but perhaps a rather costly one.
You're going to have to buy 2 of these speakers if you want stereo sound and
that's probably fair enough from B&O's point of view as you'll get good
separation.
I'm still using my B&W T7 which I bought nearly 2 years ago.
I'm looking at the B&O review now.
The author complains that the B&O Bluetooth speker isn't watertight? Well I
don't give a damn about such things, I'm only interested in the audio
quality and not marketing gimmiks.
The B&O supports APTX which is great but not so important if you're planning
to use the device with a piece of Apple hardware and I truly wish this would
change.
The author of the review I'm reading makes a point of mentioning the looks
of the B&O speaker? Again that's something that doesn't worry me so long as
I get good sound and preferably good enough sound that makes my speaker
stand out from the pack which this speaker does it seems.
Before you rush out to buy one I do suggest that you look at some other
speakers such as the B&W T7 or the Keef Muo I think its called.
The B&W T7 is a stereo Bluetooth speaker with surprisingly good separation
and sound given the size of the device and as you already have a B&W system
you will pretty much have some idea of what the T7 sounds like.
The Muo has to be paired to get stereo sound.
Anyway just my thoughts.

Hi folks

 

I am in the market for a small portable Bluetooth speaker

 

During my research I came across the B&O play a1 which had good reviews.  I
have a lot of respect for this company and I was wondering if anyone has any
experience with this speaker.
