Reply To: The CEO is out – thoughts on future product direction

@Critique: I would be happy if the BeoLab28s were the last products made with these superfluous mechanical mechanisms. I know most people in here love this stuff but when you take the cost of that mech out, (and the side drivers continue to do what probably 99% of the work is), you will reduce manufacturing cost significantly. You reduce R&D cost and prototyping costs. It will go a long way. Look at the BS Balance and BL8.’

Once one takes away any visual excitement , surely one competes with the other higher end audio brands? why would one buy B&O if that visual aspect has gone?

I am sure theb BL8 is a good speaker but I would buy the BL28 purely for the fact its so different to anything else.
