DUX and Bang & Olufsen reveal the world’s most exclusive headboard.
On June 19th, a spectacular night of glitz and glamour saw DUX and Bang & Olufsen unveiling the pinnacle of luxury and home entertainment. The exclusive event, held at the DUXIANA showroom in Marylebone, attracted an array of stars including 90s icons Angie Brown and Ben Ofoedu of Phats and Small, celebrity chef Aldo Zilli, Spurs legends Ossie Ardiles and Ledley King, and TV presenter and psychotherapist Melinda Messenger.
A New Era in Luxury Home Living
After months of anticipation, the two Nordic giants introduced the world’s most opulent headboard. Crafted from either solid oak or walnut and flanked by composite stone side tables, this stunning piece features integrated Beosound Level speakers with a powerful two-way setup, premium woofers, built-in Wi-Fi, Bluetooth connectivity, long-lasting battery life, and wireless charging capabilities.
The Beosound Level speakers are renowned for their exceptional sound quality and sleek design. As the world’s first Cradle to Cradle Certified™ speakers at the bronze level, they meet global standards for safety, circularity, and responsible production. Their modular design also allows for easy upgrades as technology evolves.
Priced from £41,7500 for the headboard alone to £56,500 to include the luxury DUX bed, this masterpiece not only sets a new standard for luxury but also holds the title of the world’s most expensive headboard.
Kevin Slade, Director of Growth & Development at DUXIANA, shared his excitement: “Our collaboration with Bang & Olufsen marks a milestone in luxury living, blending sleep performance with cutting-edge audio technology to craft unparalleled experiences.”
Tiina Alahuhta-Kasko, Head of Industrial Design at Bang & Olufsen, added: “This partnership pushes the boundaries of design and technology, redefining luxury with integrated audio and sleep solutions.”

This collection features a fully re-engineered, advanced customisable, and replaceable component bed with the unique DUX spring system, complemented by the finest natural materials and handcrafted attention to detail.
Guests had the chance to experience the superior sleep performance of DUX beds firsthand, testing out the new mattresses to feel their renowned restorative and rejuvenating qualities. Additionally, they explored iconic furniture pieces such as the Jetson and Karin chairs, which have solidified the brand’s reputation for exceptional design and comfort.
