Cool and simple to use
Always thinking ease-of-use, Bang & Olufsen has made it simple to plug BeoSound 8 in and connect the device by docking it or connecting it using the AUX line-in or USB ports, and the guests are ready to listen to their favourite digital music in no time. BeoSound 8 is easily controlled using the dedicated remote that comes with the product, or you can let the guest control it with one of Bang & Olufsen’s intelligent remotes if you prefer.

Magical 2D design
BeoSound 8 is more than an experience for the ears. The visual identity is truly intriguing with the two cone-shaped speakers almost appearing as if they are floating, while simultaneously presenting a 2D design that hides the actual depth of the product.
The two characteristic and eye-catching speakers can really change the colour of the experience. The black and the white speaker covers will fit in almost any room, and the additional options; yellow, green, purple and lavender blue – give an opportunity of matching BeoSound 8 with the surroundings and interior.
In addition, the speakers of BeoSound 8 are outlined by aluminium rings adding a distinct Bang & Olufsen look and feel. With BeoSound 8, Bang & Olufsen has once again proven that it is leading within the field of innovation and design.
