Bang & Olufsen Sets $1,500 Price for Beo Grace Earbuds as Preorders Start for Nov. 17 Release

B&O frames the model as a polished‑aluminum “wearable sculpture” focused on craftsmanship and audiophile‑grade engineering.

Overview

  • Preorders are live for the Beo Grace at $1,500 / £1,000 / €1,200, with a three-year warranty and general availability on November 17.
  • Each earbud uses a 12mm titanium driver and supports Spatial Audio optimized for Dolby Atmos, with six microphones powering Adaptive ANC the company says is four times more effective than its previous best.
