Beosound Explore

Portable sound for the adventurous

Introduction

All-round sound for the adventurous

Portable. Tough. Ready to go. No matter where your adventures take you, the uncompromising sound quality of the Beosound Explore will get you there. Embracing its robust, scratch-defiant, and thoroughly sealed exterior, it stands as a testament to enduring quality. Together with the Bang & Olufsen team, Above crafted a speaker using materials, manufacturing processes, and finishes that are intrinsically scratch and wear-resistant. The result is a grabbable adventure speaker that's pure in form, function, and sound that can take a hit from a wave or a glass of wine.  


A new icon

With Beosound Explore, Above and Bang & Olufsen have pushed the possibilities of premium design in a supremely durable package. The tough rubberized base and aluminum body mean it can be placed safely on all sorts of surfaces – from muddy campsites to sandy beaches – while a meticulously constructed internal design protects against drops and falls. From the hard anodized aluminum shell developed in Factory 5, Denmark, to the waterproof strap and carabiner, every element of the construction blends high performance with durability.

The Beosound Explore looks and feels indestructible. Ten thousand years from now, future archaeologists will be digging these things out of the ground, dusting them off and displaying them in their orbital space museums.

Signature experience

These new levels of durability are united with the luxurious experience expected of a Bang & Olufsen product. Explore is a grabbable speaker that's pure in form, function and sound that can withstand the great outdoors – from sandy beaches to cliffside adventures – without compromising Bang & Olufsen’s signature sound quality or premium design.

Beosound Explore was designed to take everything we love about B&O beyond the home and into the wild. We wanted to create an inherently durable, almost brutal archetype crafted with precision to perfection. A new icon as powerful in nature as beautiful at home.

Supremely portable

Meticulously designed so you can take it with you, Beosound Explore is a tactile speaker that fits in the palm of your hand. Clip to a belt, strap to a backpack or simply grab it and go.


Intuitive user interface

The user interface of Explore has been designed to be easy to use in all conditions. The critical daily use buttons are placed on the top plate of the speaker to ensure excellent visibility. The pushbuttons are designed to work in all conditions, whether the product is covered in water, sand, or grease, and can be easily used with gloves on.
