Bang & Olufsen Form1 Headphones

The Form1 stereo headphones combined excellent sound reproduction with a unique individual adjustment for comfort and ease. Regardless of your headshape you never had to adjust the height of the headphones, they were self adjusting through a very nifty construction made of a plate holding the headstrap which smoothly ran up and down a strip on each side held back perfectly by spring coils. The Form1 headphones were manufactured during the years 1985 -1997, still they are very rare and hard to find.

Jacob Jensen

Jacob Jensen received particular recognition in his work with Bang & Olufsen where he was chief designer for more than two decades, during this time he created an extensive line of audio products which were innovative and recognised on an international scale. The working relationship between B&O and Jensen began in 1965 and went on in various forms until 1991. During the years 1965 - 1985 Jensen developed the exclusive and aesthetic form language which today continues to be the basis of B&O’s conceptual and visual platform. The majority of Jensen´s products have been awarded design prizes both nationally and internationally, some of his work have rightfully been permanently included in the Design Collection of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York.
