Stereo pairing
For even more immersive sound, the 2nd generation A1 can now be paired for stereo. With two A1s, you not only get a bigger and more generous sound, but also a real stereo stage, which means the music sounds like the artist intended by the studio or live recording.

Compatible with Apple’s AAC codec as well as aptX Adaptive, the 2nd generation A1 produces the clearest and most accurate sound from music files. Simply connect it to your smartphone, tablet or computer and stream stored music or music from your favorite apps, such as Apple Music, Spotify and Deezer.

Voice assistant integration is now more comprehensive than ever. Alexa and Tencent integration with far field (3 to 5 meters) is now standard, making the 2nd generation Beosound A1 ideal for hands-free operation, perfect for when your hands are full in the kitchen.

Improved battery life – With a built-in battery pack (up to 18 hours of play-time), the Bang & Olufsen 2nd generation Beosound A1 is the perfect portable bluetooth speaker to take with you.

Unique Bang & Olufsen style
The beauty of B & O design has always been in the details, and the 2nd generation Beosound A1 is no different. The rounded, anodized aluminum grille not only looks good, but also forms a strong, protective housing around the speaker. Bang & Olufsen brand leather strap is another premium design feature. At just 46mm deep and 558 grams in weight, the speaker is thinner and lighter than before, making it even easier to take with you. Photo: Bang & Olufsen
