Utilizing WiSA HT technology, the Beolab 8 speaker effortlessly transmits and receives 24-bit 48/96 kHz audio over the multichannel network. Products that earn WiSA HT Interoperability Certification undergo diligent testing to ensure they meet the exceptional, high-quality, multichannel audio standards WiSA solutions are known for. Even better, all WiSA HT Certified products work together seamlessly, regardless of the brand. The Beolab 8 speaker utilizes various connection options to create this powerful sound - users can utilize an RJ45 Powerlink, Wireless Powerlink, 2 Ethernet connections, or a Line-in via USB-C to connect to a variety of existing TVs and sound systems, even those going back more than 30 years, making the Beolab 8 a perfect addition to an already established home theater setup.

“The Beolab 8 speaker is the epitome of versatility and functionality – exactly what home theater enthusiasts want and need to equip their space with immersive surround sound,” said Michael Henriksson, Vice President of Product Management & Design at Bang & Olufsen. “With the addition of WiSA HT Interoperability Certification, the Beolab 8 speaker gives users the option to customize their listening experience with up to 8 channels of wireless HD audio with absolutely zero latency.”

With a history of providing groundbreaking solutions, Bang & Olufsen continues to dazzle with the latest Beolab 8 speaker option, which offers connectivity with past, present and future Bang & Olufsen products. The speaker boasts multiple advanced sound features, like the Fluid Sweet Spot feature that uses a phone connection to the speaker to automatically adjust and provide the best direct acoustic sound – no matter where the listener is or where they move in the room. A built-in dedicated microphone maps out the specifications of the environment to deliver crystal-clear quality, high-fidelity audio in any size or setup of a room. With two listening modes, users can easily switch how the Beolab 8 speaker pushes out sound - switch to narrow for an individualized listening experience or wide to evenly spread sound throughout the whole room. Available in 4 base and cover colors and different setup options of table-standing, floor-standing or wall-mounted speakers, the Beolab 8 speaker is functional, customizable and innovative.

“Representing another revolutionary product from our valued member, Bang & Olufsen’s Beolab 8 speaker is a stunning addition to the growing ranks of WiSA-enabled interoperable and wireless products,” said Tony Ostrom, WiSA President. “Don’t let the small size fool you – this speaker effortlessly delivers dynamic, high-def sound whether you place multiples or a single speaker in a room. The Beolab 8 speaker showcases the future of immersive sound and the innovation we want to continue to see in the audio industry.”
