The €1,900 asking price for this Bang & Olufsen Beosound A5 is ambitious, sitting well above the €1,537 75th percentile and the €1,166 median from your recent comparable listings. While new retail prices have recently surged to €1,400, a used unit at €1,900 represents a significant premium over both the market median and typical depreciation expectations, making it a tough buy unless the condition is pristine and original-owner.
That said, the Beosound A5 remains a highly regarded speaker, delivering massive, room-filling sound with premium Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, plus the convenience of wireless charging and a long-lasting battery. If this listing includes the complete original set—charger, box, and accessories—and the unit shows minimal wear, it could still be a worthwhile investment for an enthusiast seeking top-tier portability and sound quality, though the price demands careful scrutiny.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Bang & Olufsen was founded on November 17, 1925, in Struer, Denmark, by engineers Peter Bang and Svend Olufsen. The company began in the attic of the Olufsen family manor, Quistrup, where the founders developed The Eliminator—a revolutionary device that allowed radios to operate from mains electricity rather than batteries. This innovation established B&O as a forward-thinking manufacturer and set the tone for nearly a century of technological advancement rooted in Danish design principles.
The brand is primarily known for premium audio and home entertainment systems, including high-fidelity receivers, radiograms, cassette recorders, and contemporary loudspeakers. B&O pioneered several category firsts: the world's first button-operated receiver in the 1930s and Europe's first cassette recorder, the Beocord-84U, in the 1950s. Today, the company manufactures integrated audio systems, wireless speakers, and headphones that blend acoustic engineering with sculptural industrial design.
Bang & Olufsen occupies the luxury segment of the audio market, positioned as a premium lifestyle brand rather than a specialist audiophile manufacturer. The company's reputation rests on its distinctive philosophy of merging form and function—treating audio equipment as crafted objects designed to enhance living spaces aesthetically. Recognized by the Museum of Modern Art in New York and maintained as a visionary enterprise for over a century, B&O appeals to discerning consumers who value Scandinavian design sensibility alongside sonic performance.
