BeoSound 3 transforms the "transistor radio" into an object of design desire. It's a portable radio, clock and digital music player that also integrates a single, full-range loudspeaker unit within its compact form. Powered by a rechargeable battery, there are no cables or plugs - just incredible sound.

BeoSound 3 is the new portable audio system from Bang & Olufsen combining the playback of digital music with traditional radio sources. In appearance, the new BeoSound 3 portable audio system from Bang & Olufsen echoes past traditions, while on the inside the technology looks to the future.

In addition to an FM radio, BeoSound 3 has an SD (Secure Digital) card reader and clock-timer elegantly packaged together with a rechargeable battery in the robust, anodised aluminium cabinet. The full-range mono loudspeaker's performance belies the small size of BeoSound 3, and offers top performance of music and vocal broadcasts.

Features

• Switch on BeoSound 3 and the motorised antenna rises up automatically. All operation of the Beosound 3 happens on the soft-touch top panel. Soft-touch operation on aluminium was pioneered by Bang & Olufsen on the BeoCenter 2 audio system.
• The form of it appears quite extraordinary at first, and yet in use BeoSound 3 proves remarkably versatile for 'classic transistor radio' use. Music stored on the very robust flash memory SD card can also be played on the BeoSound 2 digital music player and BeoSound 4 audio system.
