To be sure: The price tag of 5,000 € will be for one speaker?

No, its the price for a pair.

It’s says on the website
So for the first time in many years it seems that they are abandoning Apple airplay???
Airplay 2 are CC are included.

Christian has confirmed it over on Discord.

The spec sheets are often incorrect pre-launch.

In his words, Balance like source specs but with PL and WISA
Toward the bottom when it compares the Beolab 8 with the 18 and 28, it shows Apple Airplay 2 along with Chromecast built-in.
It appears that some of the press release sites are reporting the price not for the pair but individually.

In that case, it would be serious competition for Beosound 2 as a standalone Beosound-like" speaker. Not as much of a design statement, but better sound and connectivity, also enabling it to be used in the future as component of a larger home theatre setup (with Mozart Beosound speakers don't allow), and a lower price.
Price is per pair.
