Omnidirectional sound

Reviews highlight the Wonderboom 4’s 360 degree sound dispersion, meaning music stays broadly consistent wherever you are around the speaker and delivering a surprisingly full, well balanced presentation at picnics, campsites or in small rooms without careful aiming.

Listeners credit KEF's Uni-Q coaxial driver with delivering point-source-like behavior, keeping tonal balance and imaging consistent across a wide range of listening positions from near-field desks to more distant sofa setups.

Reviews now agree that the StormBox Mini+ delivers convincingly even 360 degree dispersion, sounding similar in volume and clarity from most directions and giving decent all around coverage even if it still falls short of a truly wraparound, immersive experience.

Unlike 360-degree designs, the SoundLink Max projects sound mainly in one direction, so it excels when pointed toward listeners but does not provide the same wraparound, omnidirectional presentation as some cylindrical rivals.
