Anything New for 2019?

No, the metric now is NOT ‘how many different products are produced......’.

The ‘metric’ is, do we trust these guys making something worthy and relevant now, in 2019 and in the future?

Some do, others don’t.

No, the ONLY metrics (look up the definition) that matter are whether you can a: make money for your stakeholders, and b: get people to like your stock enough to make the price go up, and c: survive. 

Words don't matter, only actions and results. What sparkles, sells. If adding a few drops of color to the pot sells more headphones or speakers with only advertising cost, we all win.

If the Color Team fly easyJet and stay in hostels, even better.

Well said.

The Color Team is a group of talented design professionals, in a new well-budgeted team, which will source only the crème de la crème of color recognition and deployment experts. Stay in a hostel?

If they flew Easyjet they'd be overwhelmed with orange, which would cause a sensual overload. And no-one wants that.

All that orange, it'd take months of intensive rehabilitation and aromatherapy for them to get their color sensitivity back! Oh the humanity!

Much more sensitive and talented than a simple old "normal" designer like David Lewis.

regarding speaker variety: i've noticed that, too. however, to me, the line up seems less "distinct" in each model's concept and appearance. the avant 32 was a true flagship tv back in '99.

2 days more and there will be ise. Really excited if anything new is coming.

ISE is a B2B show for networking and integration professionals. It's not your usual show for new consumer launches. It's more the sort of location you'd go and discuss licensing and deploying ICEpower and similar technologies.

Thanks for the clarification. I’m quite new to these sort of exhibitions. Are there special times, where b&o presents new products?

I heard that there will be a replacement to Horizon once the current stock are sold out. No OLED since the sizes will be 40” and upwards.

 

So there is something new on the Horizon then
