Small enough to pack, strong enough to fill the space.

Deep bass in a small speaker

Beosound A1 carries the largest woofer in its class, for deep, dramatic bass. Add crisp, airy detail and a full sense of presence, all in a form that slips easily into a bag.

24 hours of playtime

Good days should not be cut short. Up to 24 hours of playtime on one charge means Beosound A1 keeps going for as long as the day does, and a full recharge takes about three hours.

Three-microphone array

Take calls at home or far from anywhere. A three-microphone array helps your voice come through sharp and clear, so Beosound A1 doubles as a speakerphone wherever you are.

Ready to connect

Press play and go. Bluetooth, Microsoft Swift Pair and Google Fast Pair connect Beosound A1 in an instant and hold the link steady, so your soundtrack runs without interruption. It can also stay connected to two devices at once.

Stereo pair two Beosound A1 3rd Gen

A single Beosound A1 fills a space, and a pair takes command of it with bigger, bolder, more immersive stereo. Pairing even works across generations, so a 3rd Gen can be paired with a Beosound A1 2nd Gen.

Materials

Pearl-blasted aluminium, a soft leather strap and 2,173 precision-milled holes under your fingertips. With close to a century of craft behind it, Beosound A1 is as much an object of art as a speaker, and small enough for any trip.

Dustproof and waterproof

Dustproof, waterproof and ready for the outdoors. With an IP67 rating, Beosound A1 keeps playing through splashes, sand or a sudden storm, because the music should not stop for the weather.

Designed to be repaired, not replaced

Beosound A1 3rd Gen is made to be serviced rather than replaced, so it can stay with you for years. Its battery can be replaced at an authorised B&O service centre or showroom.

Beosound A1 3rd Gen is Cradle to Cradle Certified® Full Scope Bronze (v4.1).

Beosound A1 3rd Gen was the world's first Bluetooth speaker to earn Cradle to Cradle Certified® Bronze, assessed across five categories, including material health and product circularity.
