Beosound Bollard
About
Outdoor audio typically involves compromises between durability, sound quality, and visual discretion. Bang & Olufsen engineered the Bollard to sidestep these tradeoffs, creating a cylindrical speaker that disappears into garden landscapes while delivering performance worthy of the brand name. The marine-grade aluminium housing withstands seasonal weather variations without corrosion or degradation, maintaining appearance and function through years of outdoor exposure.
Ground mounting positions the Bollard at a height that integrates with surrounding plantings while optimizing acoustic dispersion. The directional driver arrangement generates 360-degree coverage across patios and garden spaces, ensuring consistent audio quality regardless of listener position. Cabling runs underground, completely invisible once installation completes.
Applications span private residential gardens, boutique hotel grounds, and restaurant outdoor seating areas. Each context benefits from audio quality that enhances atmosphere without introducing the visual clutter of conventional outdoor speakers. The Bollard proves that landscape audio need not require aesthetic sacrifice, providing genuine high-fidelity performance from a form factor designed primarily for invisibility.
