Luxury audio brand Bang & Olufsen has teamed up with iconic Italian automaker Ferrari to introduce a distinctive collection of audio products that merge precision engineering with sophisticated design. The collaboration showcases the partnership between two renowned brands, resulting in a lineup of limited-edition headphones and speakers that exude both performance and elegance.
In recent years, the trend of marrying high-end audio brands with luxury car manufacturers has gained traction. This synergy has led to successful partnerships like Focal and Bentley, McLaren and Klipsch, and Bowers & Wilkins with Aston Martin. Now, Bang & Olufsen joins the ranks, uniting its audio prowess with Ferrari's renowned automotive heritage.
“We are very excited about this collaboration. There was a strong sense of history in the making as we came together to create it,” says Bang & Olufsen CEO Kristian Teär in a press release. “It goes all the way back to the start for B&O and Ferrari. The founders, Enzo Ferrari, Peter Bang and Svend Olufsen, were visionaries, who redefined their industries by challenging the status quo. Their legacies ring down through the decades to push both brands to new heights to this day.”
The Bang & Olufsen Ferrari Collection features four remarkable products, each designed to reflect the shared values of both brands: excellence, innovation, and an unwavering commitment to quality.
One of the highlights of the collection is the Beosound 2 wireless speaker. With a distinctive 360-degree sound projection, the speaker fills any space with audio precision.
