Bang & Olufsen introduces Beolab 90 Phantom & Mirage Editions

Bang & Olufsen introduces Beolab 90 Phantom & Mirage Editions

Struer, Denmark — 11 December, 2025 – In a world where sound becomes sculpture and colour becomes emotion, Bang & Olufsen introduces the next two masterpieces in its centenary celebration: Beolab 90 Phantom Edition and Beolab 90 Mirage Edition.

Following the Titan Edition, these two creations represent a rarified expression of Bang & Olufsen’s Atelier capabilities—transforming the brand’s flagship loudspeaker into bold statements of emotion, materiality, and colour.

Beolab 90 Phantom Edition: The Power of Darkness

The Beolab 90 Phantom Edition is a study in monochromatic drama and technical sophistication. Cloaked in deep black tones, the Phantom Edition channels the raw power of motorsport aesthetics into a sculptural form.

Key Design Highlights

  • Material Mastery
    Semi-transparent black PVD metal mesh reveals the speaker’s inner architecture, creating a holographic effect that changes with every angle.

  • Carbon Fiber Accents
    A sculptural face mask, base panels, and shoulder plates crafted from carbon fibre celebrate lightweight strength and motorsport-inspired aesthetics.

  • Architectural Details
    A pearl-blasted aluminium skeleton frames the acoustic mesh panels, while the unified aluminium structure integrates beams and knots into one continuous form, complemented by precision trim rings for refinement.

Every detail of the Phantom Edition has been obsessively engineered and hand-finished. Carbon fibre panels are layered by hand using a pure artisan process, resulting in a loudspeaker that feels both elemental and futuristic—a bold statement for collectors who seek purity in design and emotion.

Beolab 90 Mirage Edition: An Explosion of Colour

In stark contrast to the Phantom Edition, the Beolab 90 Mirage Edition is a celebration of colour, elevating Bang & Olufsen’s mastery of anodization and surface treatment.

Key Design Highlights

  • Electrifying Palette
    A hypnotic iridescent fabric dances between sapphire and magenta hues, echoing the fluidity of sound waves and the dynamism of light.

  • Gradient Aluminium
    Five precision-milled aluminium parts per speaker are anodized with bespoke gradients, complemented by wave-textured surfaces that echo sound ripples.

  • Artisan Techniques
    From manual polishing by master craftsmen to gradient anodization in Bang & Olufsen’s dedicated laboratory, the Mirage Edition creates a chromatic crescendo that celebrates individuality.

Unlike any other loudspeaker, the Beolab 90 Mirage Edition is a visual symphony—designed to captivate the senses and transform any space into a gallery of sound and colour.

The Second and Third of Five Masterpieces

The Beolab 90 Phantom and Mirage Editions mark the continuation of an extraordinary journey: five exclusive editions handcrafted by Bang & Olufsen Atelier to celebrate the brand’s 100-year legacy.

Each edition is produced in an exceptionally limited series of just ten pairs, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity that underscores its collectible status.

A Legacy Reimagined

Originally launched in 2015, the Beolab 90 remains the pinnacle of Bang & Olufsen’s acoustic innovation. Featuring 18 bespoke drivers and advanced beam-forming technology, it delivers unparalleled precision and power.

These Anniversary Editions preserve the legendary performance of Beolab 90 while elevating its aesthetic expression to new heights.

Unveiled in Bang & Olufsen’s San Francisco Culture Store

The Beolab 90 Anniversary Editions were unveiled at Bang & Olufsen’s new San Francisco Culture Store—the largest Bang & Olufsen showroom in the world and one of three Culture Stores opening in California during the brand’s centenary year.

The editions will tour globally, offering discerning clients an intimate encounter with the pinnacle of acoustic artistry.
