FLAWLESS FROM EVERY ANGLE
Designed in carefully crafted aluminium, Beosound 1 doesn’t look like any other wireless home speaker. The compact conical design and smooth reflective surfaces adapt seamlessly to your interiors making any place its perfect place.
Bring the music with you. Thanks to its built-in battery, Beosound 1 is a portable speaker that accompanies you from the kitchen to the living room, outside on the balcony or basically everywhere the party goes. A single charge delivers up to 12 hours of cordless play time.
Leave the power cable behind with a docking station that makes charging and moving your wireless speaker even easier. Naturally, the optional docking station is custom-designed for the Beosound 1 by the same team behind the iconic speaker itself.
The conic aluminium bodies hover slightly above the ground, letting the thumps of the bass units out beneath. They are slightly open at the top for acoustical reasons, but apart from that you are met with a uniform expression on the surface - so what you experience is solidness and a design that has been reduced with precision. And, when you look closer at the structures of the aluminium you get the sense that this has been made by hand, almost formed like an instrument.
Aluminium is a signature material of ours, and it was not chosen purely from a design perspective; but because a closed aluminium cabinet provides the best acoustic properties thanks to material stiffness, avoidance of dissonance from joints and corners, and the elimination of distortion.
SUPERIOR SOUND FOR THE SENSES
Experience a smart speaker made by true audio pioneers. At Bang & Olufsen we put more than 90 years of acoustic experience into each new product and the difference this makes is both loud and crystal clear.
Music is social and with immersive 360-degree sound performance everyone around Beosound 1 shares the same experience. It doesn’t matter where you place the it, the speaker system still fills every corner of your room with warm, rich sounds.
