Bang & Olufsen has released the BeoSound 8, a $1400 dock for your iPhone, iPad or iPod.

The light and characteristic design of BeoSound 8 makes it highly flexible in use; it is perfectly suited as a music system not only in a main room, but also in the kitchen, on the patio or even at the summerhouse. BeoSound 8 can be placed on a wall bracket or any flat surface and still deliver fantastic premium quality sound.

To complete the outstanding sound performance BeoSound 8 has a manual room adaptation switch with 3 positions which allows it to be placed anywhere without compromising the sound performance.


Use:
Simply plug BeoSound 8 in and connect your device by docking it or connecting it using the AUX line-in or USB ports and you are ready to listen to your favorite digital music in no time. You can easily control BeoSound 8 using the dedicated remote that comes with the product, or you can control it with one of Bang & Olufsen’s intelligent remotes if that’s what you prefer.

Another cool application of BeoSound 8 is that it can be networked using the Apple Airport Express and in this way your music collection can conveniently be streamed wirelessly from your PC or Mac to BeoSound 8.

Design:
BeoSound 8 is available in black and white. Choose from a variety of optional soft colored speaker fronts to customize it to its new home. The cone shaped speakers give BeoSound 8 a magical hovering 2D appearance as it hides the actual depth of the speakers and the feet lift it up giving a light and slim design.

In addition, the speakers of BeoSound 8 are outlined by aluminum rings adding a distinct Bang & Olufsen look and feel.

Pricing & Availability:
The BeoSound 8 will be available starting late this month at around $1400 US.
