Manufacturer's Description — B&O-Bang & Olufsen
Huge sound anywhere – in the home or outdoors. Beosound A5 is a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth speaker with long-lasting battery and wireless charging built in.
Explorestereo setups for a richer sound
Elegant looks disguise a world of power and precision that brings huge sound anywhere – in the home, or out in the wild. Serious bass. Seriously smart. With Beosound A5, you won’t know what hits you.
Brings the bass. Reads the room.
A two-way setup with four drivers. The most powerful woofer in any of our portable speakers. You won’t just hear Beosound A5 – you’ll feel it. We pack all of our latest acoustic advancements in one compact package. RoomSense adapts playback based on your space, so you always get the finest fidelity.
Sound. All around.
With 360-degree sound dispersion, everyone can tune into the music – or easily narrow the sound direction for those private listening sessions. It all happens in the B&O app.
Stream it all, easily.
This portable powerhouse is primed to bring it all together. Stream on WiFi with Airplay or Google Cast. Multiple speakers? Use Beolink Multiroom to create soundscapes around the home. No connection? Bluetooth is just a tap away.
Easy control.
And it’s easy to play your way: pause, change volume, skip tracks and access your preferred radio stations or playlists by using the favourites buttons.
Portability? Handled.
Bluetooth and up to 12 hours of battery life means the music will always flow. A built-in Qi wireless charger keeps your devices juiced up. And with a beautifully crafted Danish-made oak handle, it’s easy to pick up and play. Beosound A5 is packed in a IP65 construction making it dustproof, water resistant and durable.
Stream anything wirelessly. Connect other speakers seamlessly. All in a grab-and-go package that will keep you going. This is music’s next move.
Ahead of the game. And the times.
Beosound A5 isn’t just built to last - it’s built to evolve. A modular design means that parts can be replaced, instead of you replacing the whole speaker. Software updates bring new features over time, making your music listening experience better and better.
Mix. Match. Magic.
Stereo pair two Beosound A5 together for a more spacious listening experience. Or take advantage of our Mozart 2.0 platform to wirelessly connect other speakers together and orchestrate music in every room.
Form and fidelity.
Detailed but simple. Beosound A5 epitomises the best of Scandinavian design and materials. Real oak and rich aluminium make for a tactile experience, crafted with longevity in mind. Designed in collaboration with GamFratesi Studio.
