Lift it by the handle, and the music goes where you go.

Bass and room sensing

Four drivers in a two-way setup, led by the strongest woofer Bang & Olufsen has fitted to a portable speaker. Beosound A5 gathers the brand's latest acoustic work into one compact body, so you feel the bass as much as you hear it.

Active Room Compensation

RoomSense reads the space around the speaker and adjusts playback to match it. Wherever you set Beosound A5 down, the sound is tuned to that spot, so you keep the finest fidelity it can give.

360-degree sound

Sound spreads through a full 360 degrees, so everyone in the room shares the music. When you want it closer to you, narrow the direction for a private listening session, all from the Bang & Olufsen app.

Portability

Bluetooth and up to 12 hours of battery keep the music going, while a built-in Qi charger tops up your phone on the top surface. An IP65 build makes it dustproof, water resistant and durable, and the handle makes it easy to grab and go.

Easy control

Playing your way is simple. Pause, change the volume and skip tracks right on the speaker, or press one of the favourites buttons to go straight to a preferred radio station or playlist.

Stereo pair two Beosound A5

Pair two Beosound A5 for a wider, more spacious stereo listening experience. Through the Mozart 2.0 platform, they can also link wirelessly with other Bang & Olufsen speakers to bring music into every room.

Speakers, simply connected

Stream over WiFi with AirPlay or Google Cast, and use Beolink Multiroom to build sound through the whole home. When there's no network nearby, Bluetooth is only a tap away.

Modular design

Beosound A5 is made to evolve, not just to last. Parts can be replaced instead of the whole speaker, software updates add features over time, and a new cover or handle changes its character, such as wood set against metal.

Beosound A5 is Cradle to Cradle Certified® Full Scope Bronze (v4.0).

This certification looks at the product across five categories, including material health and product circularity, in line with the modular, long-life approach behind Beosound A5.
