There is a picture of it wall mounted on Beoplay - you need to scroll down.

So there is - unfortunately the picture is trying to be so "arty" that it doesn't really show me what I'd like to see - why do they do this!!!😡 What's the point of a washed out, head on shot of a round black speaker on a plain white wall!😂 It gives no sense of size or scale, how the speaker actually fits to the wall, how much it stands off etc.

As an aside, I find the entire Beoplay website and it's navigation extremely irritating.😠

Right!.......... (deep breath, calm down) - I could quite like the A9 wall mounted, the speaker part without the stand is quite elegant, the size is less of an issue than when stood on the floor and I always did prefer my RL's when bolted to the wall. I doubt I'll be a customer though - too expensive for me for an occasional speaker, I'd rather put that sum towards better mainroom speakers. I'm still not keen of the floor standing option.

Finally, damn, that brown telly is ugly!!

Wooden legs. Very retro .

I don't think it's mono

The pictures show a few speakers under the one hood

It's got nothing to do with "hate", it's simply a poor designed product. IMO.

Both physical design wise, and technically. It's not going to have a proper stereo image (on the other hand the few that are going to buy this, might not even know what stereo means). I'm willing to bet it will sound nowhere close to a BL9. If it does, then the Beolab 9 was a failure to begin with.

Mono base, stereo tweeter (was gonna write twitter!)

It's not mono, but physics robs it from producing a "proper" stereo sound image.

Well at least the A9 has opened up a lot of passion and discussion. Good, bad and ugly

The site hasn't been this busy for a while or since the V1
