B&O launches Wireless Audio System

Bang & Olufsen (B&O) have a reputation for luxury audio and visual equipment so don’t be surprised if its new wireless audio system will set you back more than a few quid. Beolink_wirelessThere’s no launch date or price on this yet but we like the way the company explains the basics:

For BeoLink Wireless 1, Bang & Olufsen has chosen a mature wireless technology that can match three critical parameters: it is very robust, has a very low level of delay with no echo, and it can distribute audio to up to 21 rooms in your home at the same time.”

We especially like the “21 rooms” bit since most of us have that kind of space. Each BeoLink Wireless 1 unit functions as both a transmitter and receiver. A single transmitter can deal with up to seven rooms (seven pairs of loudspeakers), and the system can manage up to three transmitters with 21 pairs of loudspeakers around the house. The receiver and transmitter can be up to 30 meters apart while the outside range is approximately 100 meters. The system operates on the 2.4GHz band, also used by other devices such as WLAN networks, Bluetooth telephones and microwaves, among others. However, B&O promises no interference.
