Description The Bang & Olufsen story began in a small attic room in North-West Jutland, Denmark. From the beginning, technical innovation was a hallmark of the company, with products like the Eliminator (1925) and Beolit (1931), revolutionising home entertainment. As the company grew, demand for its innovative products spread far beyond the borders of Denmark, and Bang & Olufsen was renowned throughout the world. As early as 1963, the brand was introduced into the UK, and by 1974 Bang & Olufsen had established its own UK subsidiary. Throughout the sixties, seventies and eighties, the company continued to introduce products which were as inspired in design as they were technically innovative. It's a success that continues today. With products like the BeoVision 6 LCD television and the BeoSound 3200 CD/Hard disk recorder, Bang & Olufsen remain at the forefront of technological innovation. And it is set to stay there well into the Millennium.
