Hi,

It seems that the beolab 11 is officially launched and should be revealed on april, the 14th:

Bang & Olufsen A/S - Company Announcement
Bang & Olufsen a/s launches BeoLab 11 
BeoLab 11 is a new elegant subwoofer from Bang & Olufsen which combines
excellent bass performance, intriguing design and unorthodox placement
possibilities. 

BeoLab 11 is composed of two identical loudspeaker cabinets, with baffles
facing each other. The new subwoofer provides a significant addition to the
bass experience in any small to medium loudspeaker setup, adding low
frequencies from 300 Hz and down. 

The unique acoustic design of BeoLab 11 allows it to be placed on the floor, in
a corner, or mounted on the wall. In fact, due to its minimal vibrations, it is
one of the very few subwoofers in the world that can be mounted on a wall. And
with the sculptural design of BeoLab 11, you will want to put it on display,
instead of hiding it behind a sofa. The outer shells are made of aluminium and
are available in silver and white. 

The launch of BeoLab 11 does not affect Bang & Olufsen's expectations for the
current financial year. 

BeoLab 11 can be experienced together with BeoVision 10-46 and Adaptive Sound
Technology at an event for the national and international lifestyle press,
which takes place in DR Byen in Copenhagen Wednesday 14 April at 2.00 PM CET.

President & CEO


For further information, please contact:

The beovision 10-46 should also include the AST. Any ideas ofthe prices for that Beolab 11.

Cheers, Marc.

I just looked on B&O's website and could not find this. Are there any official pictures that went with this announcement?

No - this is just a financial press release, not a product launch. You'll see the pictures during/after the official launch, when a couple of dozen members start pasting them all over the forums 😎 

(or after the Q3 financial report, which happens three hours earlier)

I saw the photos when they were posted, except there were not any pictures of it mounted to the wall (<--- what I am most anxious to see!)

So having two drivers, does that mean it will reproduce left and right channels seperately or will it work like the BL2 (in this case two drivers, one channel)?

One channel only. The two drivers are run in the same phase - which actually becomes opposing phase as they are positioned facing each other - so it cancels out most mechanical vibration.
