Bang & Olufsen Beolab 3000

Details

Quality loudspeakers not only provide a unique audio experience but also showcase a visual personality that demands attention. Bang & Olufsen’s BeoLab 3000 and Beovox 3000 loudspeakers excel in both sound and design, positioning them as leaders in their field. With their slim profiles, they earned the nickname Panel loudspeakers, highlighting their sleek and modern appearance.

Panel Loudspeakers: Innovation in Sound and Design

The Panel loudspeakers clearly demonstrate how Bang & Olufsen unites cutting-edge technology with stunning design. While they don’t resemble traditional high-spec loudspeakers, their sound performance reveals their true potential. In fact, even at full volume, they maintain a perfect sound balance across the entire frequency range.

Designed primarily for wall mounting, these elegant, flat loudspeakers feature serene blue or grey fabric combined with polished steel accents. As a result, they function not only as high-performance sound systems but also as works of art, seamlessly blending into any living space. Furthermore, the design ingeniously uses the wall as an active element in sound reproduction without causing unwanted vibrations.

BeoLab 3000 Active Loudspeakers vs Beovox 3000: Amplifier Options and Features

You have the option to choose between the BeoLab 3000, which includes an integrated amplifier and display, or the Beovox 3000, which lacks both. Specifically, the BeoLab 3000 features a display that shows the current source, volume, and track number, while the Beovox 3000 offers a more streamlined experience without these additional features.

Which option you choose largely depends on the Bang & Olufsen sound system you plan to connect. For optimal performance, these speakers work best with BeoSystems 6500, 4500, 3500, and BeoCenters 9500 and 8500.

Active Loudspeakers: Reducing Size Without Sacrificing Performance

Why integrate the amplifier into the loudspeaker, rather than keeping it separate? The Active Loudspeakers principle provides the answer. By embedding the amplifier directly into the speaker, Bang & Olufsen reduced the cabinet size to just one-third of what a conventional loudspeaker with the same sound capacity would require. Consequently, this design allows the speakers to produce high volumes without distortion or damage to the drive units.

Moreover, by pairing the amplifier with the treble and bass units, each component compensates for the other’s shortcomings. As a result, you hear music that sounds remarkably close to the original instrument, maintaining authenticity and clarity.

BeoLab 3000 Wall-Mounting Solutions: Flexible Installation Options

Wall-Mounting Brackets:

Each speaker comes with its own set of wall-mounting brackets, providing a simple yet elegant installation option. STBbrackets, Bang & Olufsen’s trusted supplier, has crafted a range of bespoke mounting solutions specifically designed for these speakers. These options, available through the Bang & Olufsen store network, offer enhanced flexibility, making it easy to position the speakers in a variety of settings.

Wall Bracket for BeoVox & BeoLab Series:

To meet the growing demand for flat-panel speaker wall mounts, Bang & Olufsen introduced the WB3000 Wall Bracket. This bracket, sold as a pair, faithfully reproduces the original design and allows you to install the BeoLab 3000 and Beovox 3000 on the wall, transforming them into authentic Bang & Olufsen statement pieces.
