Get an out-of living-room experience
We want you to believe that you are somewhere else. Right on the stage with Brünnhilde and Siegfried; in the recording
studio during the Birth of the Cool; tumbling around the U-96 as the depth charges detonate. You are no longer in your living room.
It listens and learns
The acoustic properties of your listening room play a very important role in the quality of the sound from high-end speakers – as
do their placement relative to walls and furniture. Luckily, digital technology from Bang & Olufsen known as Adaptive Bass Control will
listen and analyse "the sound of the room" and tailor the speakers' performance accordingly.
Always in the right position
You can move around a grand piano as much as you like, and the music will still move you. In contrast, a traditional stereo speaker
set-up locks the listener in a 'sweet spot' position of limited physical dimensions. If you move around, you lose out on the subtleties
in the music because of the directionality of the speakers.
Absolute power without corruption
How do you fit a full symphony orchestra between the sofa and the easy chair? The BeoLab 5 may not appear small compared with other
Bang & Olufsen loudspeakers, but its physical size is in fact negligible when compared to the sound it delivers. This is where the 2500
watts of digital amplification comes in. With these power reserves, we can coax a bigger, clearer, more realistic and potentially much
louder sound out of something relatively small.
Freedom to listen – freedom to move
Enter Acoustic Lens Technology exclusively from Bang & Olufsen, and feel free to sit anywhere you like. You will always be in the right place. Problem solved.
