Connect vintage B&O systems to modern BeoLab speakers

Neo Hub Retro makes it possible to connect classic B&O music systems to modern BeoLab active speakers.

With this intelligent adapter, older B&O amplifiers with a speaker output (Speakerlink) can be used with speakers featuring a Powerlink input - without changing the original listening experience.

This allows older B&O amplifiers to play directly through modern speakers - without changing the character of the sound.

Neo Hub Retro is designed for enthusiasts who want to preserve their classic B&O system while also using newer speakers and modern audio systems. The solution connects two generations of Bang & Olufsen technology, making it possible to combine vintage hi-fi with today's active speakers.
