Bang & Olufsen Black BeoSound 8 Speaker Dock, Model 1290546
Think of a room, any room. A bedroom, guest room, or open-plan kitchen? In
a summerhouse, chic apartment, or family home? Now just add BeoSound 8 to fill
up your room with Bang & Olufsen sound and style. If you keep your music
on an iPad, iPhone, iPod or computer, you are all set to discover the iconic
style and breathtaking sound quality that has made Bang & Olufsen one of
the most sought-after names in home audio. Move BeoSound 8 from room to room
or hang it on a wall. All you need is a power outlet, your music player of choice,
and a desire for real sound quality. Secure your iPad, iPhone, or iPod firmly
in the adjustable holder and prepare for a surprise. The sleek speaker design
gives little clue about the fidelity and depth of the sound that is about to
come your way. The conical shape of the speakers on BeoSound 8 has two functions.
Design-wise, the shapes ‘disappear’ to create an unobtrusive impression
from most viewing angles and make placement easier. In terms of audio quality,
they eliminate standing waves by avoiding parallel surfaces. It may sound very
technical, but you’ll find that the proof is in the experience. Playing
music from your own phone, computer, or media player gives you the advantage
of a familiar navigation environment. In addition, you can now download an app
version of the sleek and stylish BeoPlayer for your docked iPad, iPhone, or
iPod. You can also adjust sound levels and skip tracks quickly and conveniently
on BeoSound 8 itself. Music on a docked or USB linked device can be controlled
via the dedicated round remote control or of course your existing Beo4 or Beo5
remote controls if you already own other Bang & Olufsen equipment. To match
your personal taste and the room you place it in, BeoSound 8 comes in either
black or white with aluminium details and matching power cord. When you feel
the need to add a splash of colour to the room, the list of options includes
six fabric speaker covers in lavender blue, purple, green, yellow, black and
white.
