BeoCom 4 — Form and Function, Redefined

Standing upright, this two component handset and base combination offers exceptional convenience and unrivalled ease-of-use. BeoCom 4 is Bang & Olufsen’s latest masterpiece that is asymmetrically divided into two halves and therefore provides a high level of interaction. When placed together the two units form a distinct tower, when apart they offer two separate, fully functioning visual identities.

BeoCom 4 is very light weight and is operated through a smooth, raised wheel located on the handset. The wheel is navigated with one-step thumb operation allowing the user to scroll through the built in phone book and call list. High sound quality reproduction from the built in loudspeaker is ensured by a combination of Bang & Olufsen skills in acoustics and advanced digital signal processing. The handset, consisting of a loudspeaker and microphone, is built upon the same design concept as our award winning earphones, where individual adaptation to each user is applied.

BeoCom 4 features a smooth and durable surface, ensured by an extensive ultra violet lacquering process which produces a highly scratch-resistant surface. BeoCom 4 comes in black, blue, and beige, has caller ID and call waiting functionality. MSRP $350.00 (about Rs 14,000).

BeoLab 4 PC/MAC — The Ultimate Computer Loudspeaker

BeoLab 4 is the first dedicated and self amplified PC and MAC based computer loudspeaker from Bang & Olufsen which offers a very compact design with robust sound. BeoLab 4 is the perfect solution for those who rely on computers for any and all sources of entertainment. Given the increasing role music plays on the development of computer games and digital music sharing and listening, Bang & Olufsen has come up with the ultimate solution to enhance the listening experience.

Based on our proprietary digital ICEpower(R) amplifier technology, BeoLab 4 enables very large sound to be produced from such a small speaker shape. With its unconventional pyramid-structure, BeoLab 4 is approx. 8 inches high and 9 inches wide, yet it delivers impeccable range within the entire audio spectrum, from deep bass to high treble.

BeoLab 4 is an intelligent loudspeaker that automatically adjusts the bass according to the volume level. When playing at normal volume, the bass provides the foundation for a natural "soundscape". Conversely, the bass is adjusted downwards when the volume is high, to avoid damaging the bass unit. This self adjusting patented system by Bang & Olufsen is called ABL (Adaptive Bass Linearization), and it has proven its worth in our loudspeakers for many years.

BeoLab 4 connects easily to a PC or a Mac using a normal mini-jack plug and is immediately ready to use for plug and play operation. It can also link up to the BeoSound 2 MP3 player or any other MP3 player on the market. BeoLab 4 is available in red, blue and black. MSRP is $990.00 (about Rs 36,000).
