Any news from the B&O dealer conference?

20 replies

With little news coming from our dealers, we've been told that the new direction for B&O, their stores and products will be announced at the dealer conference in Cannes, this week.

They say no news is good news, but in this case I'm not so sure. Any news sneaking out from the conference? Although I'm sure there are things that they can't announce publicly, there must be some indication on a release date for the Beosound/master 5, for example?

B&O answer to the digital age is to paint many things white apparently

Or... every purchaser of a B&O Product here on in will receive a giant wreath delivered to their home via tricycle.

(if anyone watched the "history" of B&O video on the bang-olufsen, you'll know what I'm talking about)

Spoke with my dealer this afternoon. He was really amazed about BS5. Soundquality is great. They have invented and patented a new technoligy to ensure that. BM1 is part of the BM5 and makes it possible to store pics etc. What we have been told so far is a fact. It will be launched november.

BC5, the new speaker phone, is great to. Designed as a circle speaker with a display.

He was also satisfied with BV8-40.

So did he tell you how many of the 1500 piece mystery product he ordered?  Was he satisfied with it as well?

New speakerphone: Finally !

As someone who has every model of Beocom in the last 20 years, a hand held speakerphone is something that has been missing from the Beocom inventory for sometime.

I look forward to it.

You will be allright with the 32. I would expect the BV8 40 to be more expensive since it will have more features, i.e. 2 HDMI and maybe surround as it was rumored earlier.

 

The only thing that would have made me rethink my decision would have been a BV7 32 with integrated BS3 which is not going to happen.
