Introducing Late Night Blue – Bang & Olufsen’s special edition of Beoplay A1 and Beoplay E8

Since the early 1930s, New York City has been the epicentre of jazz, the venue of legends and aspiring talents, the epitome of swing, stride or bebop sound. Inspired by this soundtrack and vibrant energy, Bang & Olufsen is introducing a special edition of Beoplay A1 and Beoplay E8 in stunning Late Night Blue, a colour inspired by jazz, music clubs, and the flashing neon signs of the backstreets of New York City.

Beoplay A1 Late Night Blue

Chasing the Blues Away

With a crisp and rich Bang & Olufsen Signature Sound experience despite its small footprint, the Beoplay A1 is an ultra-portable Bluetooth speaker ideal for those who care about great design and sound on the go. Delivering up to 24 hours of play time from a single battery charge and featuring calls and voice interaction, the Beoplay A1 Late Night Blue comes in a splash and dust-resistant design made with resilient materials like anodized aluminium and leather.

Ergonomically engineered to fit comfortably into your ears, Beoplay E8 delivers excellent sound and a truly wireless experience. The earphones are tuned for a full-bodied and precise soundstage, and they come in a premium, genuine leather case. The Late Night Blue colour vibrantly highlights the design while underlining the anodized aluminium and leather details.

Beoplay E8 and Beoplay A1 Late Night Blue are part of the Special Edition Collection, a wider collection of colour variants, each with its own unique colour concept, and only available in very limited quantities.
