MODERN SENSIBILITIES HAVE hardened against the idea of magic. We don’t even need to look at the world outside our window because the most culpable of all the culprits for our cynicism towards logic-defying phenomena is in the room with us: technology. In our evolution towards the endpoint-less destination that is progress, we’ve broken the sound barrier, advanced machine learning to the point where we’ve become afraid of it, and flown so close to the sun that we constantly need to detox/unplug from our flight.
Still, there is technology that genuinely, viscerally and compellingly inspires awe. The kind that exists in plain sight but whose workings are, in a word, unbelievable. The kind that powers and informs Beosound A5, Bang & Olufsen’s latest high-end portable speaker whose presentation and performance is a tangible, real-world wand-wave.
