In recent years, high-end audio logos have tended to merge with luxury car logos to produce special edition collections. We’ve already noticed that French speaker manufacturer Focal is partnering with Bentley. Meanwhile, speaker manufacturer Klipsch has been running the F1 McLaren logo for a few years.
The latest audio company that has joined this audio-automotive synergy is the Danish company Bang & Olufsen. The cool Danish audio company is teaming up with the Italian supercar logo Ferrari to produce a variety of products featuring either logo. At first glance, the understated and understated Bang & Olufsen may not seem like a natural match for Ferrari’s in-your-face, bright red image, but there’s no doubting the ultimate functionality of both companies’ products.
The new Bang & Olufsen Ferrari Collection draws on B&O’s excellence in handling aluminum and celebrates the shared passion of both brands for poise, power and precision. To start the collaboration, B&O has reimagined four of its headphones and speakers: the Beosound 2 home speaker, Beoplay H95 headphones, Beoplay EX earbuds and the Beosound Explore portable speaker. All four products have a striking shade of Ferrari red, creating a clear connection with the supercar’s brand signature.
“We are very excited about this collaboration. There is a strong sense of history in creation when we came here together to create it,” said Kristian Teär, CEO of Bang
Teär continues: “The combination of the best performance, aesthetics and meticulous craftsmanship have brought B together
There is no doubt that both brands are pioneers in innovation. Bang

The Beoplay H95 are Bang & Olufsen’s flagship wireless headphones. Thanks to traditional titanium drivers, the headphones deliver powerful sound and feature adaptive active noise cancellation that the user can adjust by simply turning an aluminum ring. The H95s are finished in supple lambskin and offer up to 38 hours of uninterrupted listening.
For the collector’s version, the H95 Ferrari is jet black and laser engraved with the B&O logo and the Ferrari prancing horse. Below the headphones, the titanium speaker grilles, specially chosen for this collaboration, have been anodized in red.
Beosound Explore is a portable speaker designed to last a lifetime. With an IP67 rating, the speaker is absolutely water and dust resistant.
