Any chance of an updated BeoSound1?

Thanks guys - yes, I think we will go with Beosound 1 and not worry about DAB.

It looks, feels and sounds better than the Bose, and costs quite a bit less than the (rather ugly) Meridian.

Also, I've had a Century performing the same functions for me for many years, and it's been great, but I don't want to let it go and she doesn't want to steal it from me!

Go for the BS1-even if, and it's a big if, FM is switched off, it's unlikely that it will be before 2020. Someone will probably come up with a DAB to FM converter allowing you to to tune to FM frequencies on the BS1 with DAB being rebroadcast from the converter.

Thanks you for this - In fact I think such a device already exists (Pure make a tiny DAB receiver that rebroadcasts on FM), so I think that settles it!
