The collaborative piece aims to continue CLOT's mission of bringing together the East and West. The partnership is said to draw inspiration "from the life force of blood" and the origin of the name CLOT. As a result, the speaker comes in a rich, red colorway with a large clot displayed on its top and the Bang & Olufsen logo near its bottom. In addition, the speaker comes equipped with an adjustable leather strap, True360 omnidirectional sound, and dust and waterproof treatment. "CLOT’s goal of bridging cultures through experiences and sensations to a new generation resonates with our own mission to design sound that sparks the senses for the ultimate listening experience,” said Christoffer Poulsen, SVP of [Product Management & Brand Partnering](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/product-guesser) at Bang & Olufsen.
