Beolab 18
Acoustic work of art.
An iconic pillar of luxury sound, Beolab 18 is a wireless speaker crafted from carefully selected materials. Everything that bears the Bang & Olufsen name has been tuned to perfection, bringing you right into the sound. At Bang & Olufsen we have been sharing an obsessive passion for sound for almost 100 years: it has been a vital mission of ours to constantly test, measure and perfect the techniques used to reproduce sound.
Sound for the senses.
-
Design-driven innovation
Beolab 18 is a stunning work of design engineering with audio performance at its heart. The acoustic lens evenly distributes the upper frequencies in a 180-degree horizontal arc, delivering superior sound experiences across your room, not just in front of your speaker.
-
All the little big things
Behind its beautiful exterior, Beolab 18 is filled with advanced audio technologies. Adaptive Bass Linerisation automatically adjusts the bass performance to what you are playing, while the room adaptation feature optimises the sound based on your speaker's placement.

A poetic expression of sound
The aluminium pillar balances almost magically on its pointed base, while the crafted wooden lamellas appear to be fanning out the sound across your room in concert with the acoustic lens on top. Meet design and engineering in perfect harmony.
A poetic expression of sound.
The aluminium pillar balances almost magically on its pointed base, while the crafted wooden lamellas appear to be fanning out the sound across your room in concert with the acoustic lens on top. Meet design and engineering in perfect harmony. The slender speaker leaves a surprisingly small footprint. It’s designed to fit and blend in almost anywhere, regardless if you are looking for a freestanding floor speaker, want to tuck it in a corner or hang it on your wall like an artwork.
