Yes the ALT lens is way to high for listening while seated. The wonderful sound they disperse is going to go right over the listeners head :-(

Have you actually already heard them 😕

you can see very good in the sneak preview screenshot with Mr. Cartney , while he's sitting the ALT lens remains way aboove his head. For what I know ALT tech. can only spread sound horizontally. so fail design to me. And many furnitures are even lower than this one here.

Oh No, Oh No, how can they destroy such a beautiful design, it totally brings the dimensions out of proportion, must be the same designer as the satellite dish on chopsticks. Never ever going to buy one.

A certain synergy between the speakers in the Shard and the buildings in the background - skyscraperesque.

I think they look both handsome and cheeky. The Alt seemingly peeking over a fence. Nice that B&O have a sense of humour. 

As soon as my Beolab 8000 Mk 2 speakers sell [in the classifieds if anyone is interested] I may well order a set.

Say thank you to B&O, your Mk 2es just got a price hike, people who waited for the new speakers, are now going to look for Mk 2.

Can you see me waving in the black building just above his head?

Completely agree with Chris and Søren.  

Tue Mantoni OUT !!!

I wouldnt go that far, if he get the money back he payed for design and development, he can stay.

I've just realized one of the reasons I hate this is that the base now looks like they used the tooling from that modern classic the Playmaker.
