Design by Michael Anastassiades

Imagine a coin elegantly balancing on its edge, ready to roll at the lightest touch. Beosound Edge is the first Bang & Olufsen product from the hands of acclaimed lighting designer Michael Anastassiades. In this interview, Anastassiades shares his passion for minimalism and his urge to spark your imagination

Crafted in a timeless circular design

The Beosound Edge is a speaker and minimalist design object in one. Designed for intuitive touch and motion, it’s an unbroken circle of clarity and beauty. Prepare to welcome a unique and powerful performance into your home

ACTIVE BASS PORT

For the calm and for the storm

BeoSound Edge employs cutting-edge acoustic innovation to deliver a powerful and accurate listening experience. Through our latest patent for the world's first Active Bass Port, the speaker provides perfect potent bass at high volumes and maintains accurate bass at low volumes.

VOLUME CONTROLS

Magical Interaction

Interacting with BeoSound Edge is enchanting. A push either way from BeoSound Edge's centre of gravity controls the volume. Subtle resistance and damping make the instinctive rolling motion feel both luxurious and intuitive.

DIRECTIONAL SOUND CONTROL

Music for you, me and everyone

With Directional Sound Control, BeoSound Edge allows the user to define the direction that the sound radiates. For instance, a room can be divided into an active listening area and a more passive listening area. Alternatively, the user can choose to blast true 360° room-filling sound from both sides of the speaker to fill the entire room.

PLACEMENT

Defy gravity

Keep your Beosound Edge casually on the floor or mount it on a wall as a stunning display. Enjoy the magical experience as the speaker rolls back into position as you pull or push the aluminium ring to adjust the volume.

PROXIMITY SENSORS

A presence that adapts to you

Meet a speaker that feels your presence. As you approach, Beosound Edge comes to life, lightning up its touch-sensitive control interface through the aluminium surface. Simple and sophisticated.
