Bang & Olufsen

Enjoy enhanced sound quality in your home with the black oak Bang & Olufsen Beosound Balance Wireless Smart Speaker. The Beosound Balance is designed to disperse sound all around with its seven-driver array to help you hear your music clearly. Active Room Compensation technology actively adjusts the sound settings to provide optimized audio. Bluetooth and Wi-Fi technology are onboard, so you can stream your favorite songs from compatible devices via Apple AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, or Chromecast built-in. A combination 1/8" and optical jack lets you plug in a wired audio source. The Google Assistant is also built-in, enabling voice control of the speaker and other compatible devices around the house on the same network. You can also control the speaker via the Bang & Olufsen app, which lets you set the EQ to your sound preference as well.Minimalist Design With its shape broken into two components, the Beosound Balance helps provide a luxurious look. A unique combination of materials is used, including an aluminum grille with a Fibonacci pattern for acoustic transparency and a solid oak base for a sculptural feel.Optimal Placement The Beosound Balance is designed to be positioned up against the wall or on a shelf or side table and deliver controlled beams of sound for a clear acoustic experience from the front and rich sound enhancement at the back. It is made to deliver a strong bass performance and a broad sound image for room-filling sound when you want it. Beam-forming technology also enables the Beosound Balance to deliver sound directivity for focused listening from all positions.Built-In Proximity Sensor Tactile user-interaction experience and light-through-aluminum provide a subtle look and simple touch with proximity sensors built-in to welcome you when you approach the speaker, so the controls only appear when needed; they dim again when you walk away from the speaker, leaving only the aluminum surface.Voice Control with the Google Assistant With the Google Assistant, you can enjoy music with just your voice. Ask for a specific song, control volume, and find information about the song you're listening to hands-free. You can also plan your day, set alarms, and control connected compatible smart devices with your voice. The Beosound Balance also has four favorite buttons, where you can save your favorite Google preset and listening experiences for easy touch access.Driver Configuration The Beosound Balance has two 5.25" bass drivers for enhanced bass performance, two 2" full-range drivers, and one 0.75" tweeter placed in the front for clear, defined sound reproduction, and two 3" full-range drivers in the back that act as sound enhancers.Active Room Compensation This technology helps optimize your sound experience based on the positioning of the speaker in the room by actively adapting the speaker tuning to compensate for its acoustic surroundings.Additional Features Recommended for 100 to 800 ft rooms200W amplifiers for each woofer, 100W amplifiers for each full-range driver, and a 50W amplifier for the tweeterMaximum SPL of 104 dB; maximum bass SPL of 88 dBPair two Beosound Balance speakers together via the Google Home app for a stereo experienceBeam Width ControlBeam Direction Control (three sides)Thermal ProtectionAdaptive Bass LinearizationCustomizable EQ and presets via the Bang & Olufsen app2x2 MIMOSpotify ConnectCombination line-in/optical inputDual Ethernet portsAdditional control via the Bang & Olufsen appAmazon Alexa compatibility scheduled to be added via a future firmware updateInitial setup via the Bang & Olufsen app is recommended
