Analysing sound

Digital music in the amazing B&O sound quality

Even if your music is on the mobile phone, play it directly via BeoSound 5 on great Bang & Olufsen loudspeakers. This may lead you to hear things in your digital music you have never heard before.

Intelligent playlist

BeoSound 5 respects your taste in music. If you like, the intelligent MOTS feature actually ‘listens’ to the song you are playing – analyses the sound, dynamics, and rhythmic aspects. It then finds similar music and automatically offers a playlist that can take you to places in your music collection you may have forgotten you had.

Technology made easy

10.000 CD’s in your music system

With a storage capacity equivalent to approx. 175,000 tracks or 10,000 CD's and built with some of the best signal processing, BeoSound 5 supports playback of WMA and FLAC lossless files in addition to the compressed file formats. These lossless file formats contain the bits that go missing from compressed mp3 music.
