Someone that i talked to said that the bowers and wilkins t7 to them has 
a bit to much highs is there a way to make tonal ajustments to the speaker?
I have heard some youtube demos for the bowers and wilkins t7 and find 
it great sounding, haven't found a youtube demenstration for the polk 
audio speaker.
You would think that a speaker that has a wood cabnet would have a 
better tone?
I come from the analog years that i have heard a lot of speakers that is 
why i want the best sound i can get, what is the battery life like on 
the bowers and wilkins t7?

Unfortunately - Youtube being what it is - demonstrations of this sort 
are very.. well.. subjective to say the least, it all depends on how the 
demonstration was recorded in the first place and the quality of 
encoding, much the same as Podcasts smile


In the case of the Polk Audio, you're paying for the wooden cabinet work 
and yes, they should sound good, they're okay but - in my opinion - the 
BW T7 has the march particularly given that it supports lossless Bluetooth.


The battery life of the BW T7 is around 19 hours.

One of the good things I guess about writing things up is that I get 
good exercise in my fingers given that they have to type on the keyboard 
smile so that makes up for people not reading what I wrote.


I wrote about Lossless Bluetooth to the listwhen you first asked about 
what was the best portable Bluetooth speaker system around.


The BW T7 supports aptX which is a Lossless Bluetooth profile, I also 
posted a link which gives further information.


Unfotunately - at this time - the iPhone doesn't support aptX but 
Samsung devices - and many others - certainly do.

Usually Polk Audio are speakers - one of the few brands - that are 
speakers to die for but not this Polk Audio powered speaker system.


Its not bad but you can do better for the money you spend.
