The 1400 square-foot, completely new Greenwich showroom features the full
Bang & Olufsen product line, including its highly-anticipated new audio
system, the BeoSound 5. Dubbed as "the modern-day jukebox", BeoSound 5 is a
digital system with an intuitive edge and supreme user convenience. It
automatically customizes playlists according to each user's genre selection
through the patented MOTS (more of the same) technology -- an award-winning
concept used to create an intelligent algorithm which automatically captures
the unique musical identity of a track and then builds upon a playlist of
similar music. Additionally, this audio master can encompass one's entire CD
collection and beyond, making for endless musical possibilities. BeoSound 5
also delivers impeccable sound performance as it supports lossless music and
brings the listener closer to the quality of the original recording, an
element often lost in today's digital music files.
"Bang & Olufsen has long since been a purveyor of creating unparalleled,
high quality, audio and video systems that are a pleasure to experience," said
Zean Nielsen, President of Bang & Olufsen America, Inc. "We are proud to
further expand the company's tradition of excellence in design and technology
and excited to provide the utmost in home entertainment needs to the Greenwich
area."
"With a tenure of over 15 years in home integration, we know what it takes
to provide the ultimate customer experience and look forward to launching our
business in the Greenwich area with this state-of-the-art Bang & Olufsen
showroom," said Oliver Pennington, Co-owner of Bang & Olufsen Greenwich
showroom, and also owner of the successful Bang & Olufsen Newbury Street in
Boston. "We found a tremendous opportunity for a consumer electronics and
custom installation presence in the Greenwich market, and are thrilled to

The Greenwich showroom also showcases the world renowned BeoLiving concept
-- Bang & Olufsen's solution to providing customized audio and video products
that can connect lighting, draperies, and various environmental control
modules to suit each customer's lifestyle all with the touch of one remote
control. The BeoLiving room allows for a sleek, modern setup to maximize the
