Sound is good, but from a premium brand I expected more.
Startup takes 20-30 seconds, app connection or app itself is weak.
With wet fingers, the touchpad can suddenly put on full volume...
Design good, functionality could be better.Pro

Sound Ok, Operation Katastrofal
I can actually only recommend it to someone who wants to have it constantly on the net, which misses the point with a Bluetooth speaker. Speaker element and housing of relatively good quality. App katastrofal should not be released. Unfortunately, also seems to appear no improvements in the App store.
Pro
- Sound
Contra
- App
- Airplay eats a lot of acku
- Bluetooth eats more acku than other Bluetooth speakers
- Boot up from standby extremely slow
- App has to be restarted to show the correct acku level
- App hangs and switches confused between airplay (WLAN) and bluetooth
- Input source is indicated with 3 very weak LEDs

For a good sound you have to suffer first
The weak point of the device is clearly the operation, especially the confusing behavior of the ReVox app when connecting the A100 via WLAN in the local network. Even when successfully connected, the device appears much later in the ReVox app. The ReVox app does not show which devices it knows about unless they were online when the app was launched. I also suspect that after binding, the A100 reboots (for a long time), causing it not to appear in the app and leading to confusion. Since the software is the weak point of this otherwise nice product, and because the firmware as well as the ReVox app can be updated, I hope that such a good product will hopefully get the software it deserves. Then it will also get 5 stars
Pro
- Very, very good sound
- Plug&Play interaction with ReVox P100
- Analog input 3.5mm stereo jack (e.g. for TV)
- Apple Airplay is without problems
- Playback via bluetooth with iPhone is easy
- Future-proof thanks to firmware update
- Quality of workmanship
- Design
Contra
- Confusing WLAN connection with ReVox App
- Sluggish start up
- ReVox App offers no equalizer function
- Revox App needs getting used to
- LED feedback with colours not successful
- Operation in general
Pure music.
Crystal clear, clean sound with an amazing amount of bass. The old mp3 files of my CDs, although recorded with a lot of quality, do not do justice to the box, sorry, with the app rather a sound centre, in terms of quality. It's more the music sources that are limiting, not the little box. I have started to select the Internet radios according to sound quality. Every detail is audible. Even in a classical orchestra, the individual instruments and their sound characteristics are clearly discernible.
I bought the A100 right away together with a P100 to complement the beamer home cinema with good stereo sound. But I often unplug it and carry the A100 around with me in the flat, e.g. to the home office. On the balcony, I place it just in front of the corner so that the bass is reflected from both walls. Even that works.Pro
- Very compact, without compromising sound quality. Wide choice of sound sources.
Contra
- 5 stored radio stations are already something. Maybe there should be more.
Absolutely recommended

Had expected more
Due to the many praises from various test reports, I am somewhat disappointed with the sound. For me, the sound is too bass-heavy and a little bit puffy. You won't find an equaliser. Unfortunately, one driver doesn't manage to cover the entire spectrum well. I have to say that the cheaper Beosound A1 from Bang and Olufsen does a much better job.
Too bad, I would have expected more from Revox. I will probably give the product away.This review was created for a different variant: Studioart A100 (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Airplay 2)
Very good price-performance ratio
Ideal for small furnished rooms.
Pro
- Linear frequency response
- Pairing with PC, tablet and mobile worked
- Fresh sound
Contra
- Connector to PT100 with cable cheap industry standard, hope it survives.
Revox... expected more
Pro
- Sound is balanced, honest in the bass range, but still powerful
Contra
- Battery runs out quite quickly
- .Connectivity leaves a lot to be desired
- App is a better joke
- Bluetooth only works after reconnecting several times. And that on PC, Mac, Iphone and Ipad.

Great sound, versatile and good battery
The Revox Studio Art sounds really good. The device is well built and has a powerful battery. Thanks to the versatile playback options (Bluetooth, Airplay, radio station presets, Deezer, Tidal), the box is very versatile and flexible. The Revox app is finally usable thanks to an update. All in all, a great device at a proud price....
Pro
- Great sound
- Good battery
- versatile
- Can be expanded and supplemented
Contra
- Starts slowly when switched off

Pro

- easy to set up

Ok, but has its limits in sound volume in the loud range. Operation sluggish
The operating flow is unfamiliar and also somewhat cumbersome. The LEDs are not easy to see.
In comparison with, for example, the Bose 500, the bass is clearly limited at higher power levels.
I would probably not buy it againPro
- Sound sabre to medium volume
- Processing
Contra
- Operation is extremely cumbersome
- Less volume at high volume - lags behind a Bose 500
Both thumbs up for a classy and appealing design and a small speaker that sounds much bigger than it actually is physically.
I treated myself to the Revox STUDIOART A100 because I listened to this speaker and was totally blown away by the sound quality that came out of this dainty speaker. I am very spoilt by our Bang Olufsen Beolab 8000s which are getting on in years. Visually, the Revox A100 is first class and the workmanship is impeccable. In black, the speaker also looks very elegant and timeless. The sound quality:
As already mentioned, I am overwhelmed. The mids and trebles come across clean and differentiated and the sound is outstanding. When I closed my eyes, I thought the artist was playing the song in front of me:)) The speaker convinced me so much that I decided to buy the Revox S100 Audiobar (will be released in the near future) and another A100 for integration into a 5.1 system.Pro
- Processing quality
- Design
- Multiroom
- Connections
- Expansion option for stereo and home cinema 2.0 to 5.1
- And the most important top-class hi-fi sound
Contra
- Installation process in the network did not work right away but was a mistake on my part

Absolutely recommended. But beware, it is not weatherproof!
The best blutoothbox I have heard so far and in stereo it is even better. It is worth buying the A100 and the P100. Especially the human voices are drawn very precisely! Absolutely suitable for films and radio plays!
Pro
- Very well made - just like Revox
- Very beautiful for film and radio play
- In stereo, even better
- Can't be compared with any other Bluetooth box
- All my devices find the box immediately and connect to it quickly
- If you value sound, you are in the right place
Contra
- Nothing to complain about even the price is ok
