Bang & Olufsen was founded in 1925 in Struer, a small town in northwest Denmark, by two enterprising young engineers, Peter Bang and Svend Olufsen. They created the company that was to become an international design icon and a global symbol of audiovisual excellence. Today, Bang & Olufsen is known worldwide for its distinctive range of quality televisions, music systems and high-performance speakers, products that combine technological excellence with emotional appeal in a sensational design language.
