The wall of sound

The BeoLab 12 loudspeaker comes in three variations: BeoLab 12-3, 12-2 and 12-1. Whatever your needs are, BeoLab 12 has a member to fit your home and family, both design and performance-wise. BeoLab 12 can be mounted on the wall or used with a floor stand for greater flexibility. The loudspeakers can be used to deliver astonishing surround sound or to ignite your home stereo system. Hear how the speakers give life to your Bang & Olufsen sound system or television as well as any third-party device.

A loudspeaker family to fit yours

Impressive power and depth

The largest speaker in the family is BeoLab 12-3, a high-performing loudspeaker that includes Acoustic Lens Technology, a state-of-the-art mid-range speaker driver and two large woofers positioned at the back. BeoLab 12-2 is the second family member, two thirds the height of BeoLab 12-3, with one woofer at the back. BeoLab 12-1, the latest member of the BeoLab 12 family, includes a combined upper- and mid-range speaker driver unit as well as one woofer positioned at the back. The speaker front is made of fabric instead of anodised aluminium.

Sound and size for any space

The BeoLab 12 family is ideal for surround setups, enabling you to mix the different family members for front and rear speakers, as well as to maintain a coherent design in the living room.

Designed to be stunning and adaptive

The flat form factor of all BeoLab 12 loudspeakers makes them the perfect companions for your wall-mounted flat screen TV. You also have the option of using a floor stand with any BeoLab 12, giving you countless opportunities for personalising your speaker setup.

An architectonic piece of art

Design is nothing without performance

The wave pattern creates a structure that is inconspicuous and sleek while improving the acoustic performance of the loudspeaker.

An optical illusion

BeoLab 12 features a sculptural design that forms a reassuring wave pattern. The effect of this wave design is a flat-form loudspeaker that beholds powerful capabilities, maximizing every inch of the slim space. Call it the world’s most high-performing optical illusion, because when viewed from the side, this commanding speaker appears even slimmer.


Prick up your ears

Hear how the superb acoustic performance of BeoLab 12 breathes new life into your favorite film or song. It elegantly stages the experience of listening, so new dimensions and layers reach your ears. Whether it is a Puccini opera, a Spaghetti western, or the sound of wind blowing, BeoLab 12 wall speaker evokes the perfect surround sound to enrich your experience, both acoustically and visually.

Magic happens when you break the rules

Less reflection, more realism

With the Acoustic Lens Technology handling the treble notes and helping disperse the sound waves evenly throughout the room, we maximise space in front of the loudspeaker with optimal sound, constant tonal balance, minimised floor and ceiling reflection, and a deeper sense of space and realism.

Playing with the wall

The woofers of BeoLab 12 are placed at the back of the speakers, using the wall to increase the already impressive bass performance. When placed away from the wall, a slider on the back of the speaker is set to “free position”, triggering the digital sound engine to increase the bass level electronically.

Surround sound possibilities

Surround yourself with Bang & Olufsen sound

With two BeoLab 12-3s around your television, paired with two BeoLab 12-2s or 12-1s in the rear of the room, you have the perfect surround sound system in a cohesive design language to breathe life into your entertainment. Whether it is a Puccini opera, an action-adventure film or the sound of wind blowing, BeoLab 12-3, 12-2 and 12-1 create an aural environment founded on power and depth.
