You can try out your favorite Spotify playlist now, with BeoSound 5 and your choice of Bang & Olufsen speakers, in any Bang & Olufsen store located in markets where Spotify is available.
BeoSound 5 lets you command all of your music, no matter where it's stored, from one intuitive interface. Seamlessly connecting to a plethora of sources - including NAS, Airplay, DLNA, A2DP Bluetooth and now Spotify - the BeoSound 5's LCD and scroll wheel makes music enjoyment simple. It supports playback of WMA and FLAC lossless files in addition to mp3 music, and has an on-board storage capacity equivalent to 175,000 tracks, or 10,000 of your favorite CDs. The unique, Bang & Olufsen patented MOTS (More Of the Same) feature analyzes the song that you are listening to - checking for sound, dynamics and rhythmic aspects - to automatically create a playlist from your stored music and take you to places in your music collection that you may have left unexplored for way too long.
The BeoSound 5 is available at Bang & Olufsen stores worldwide, priced at $6,324.
