Hi, Finch!

I'm wondering: Have you actually seen the Beolab 90? Do you know it will look like this or are you guessing?

When I first saw your post I thought you were joking. However:

B&O seems to make use of the services of Jakob Wagner a lot these days. And Jakob Wagner seems to like platonic solids. The design of both the Beolab 19 and the Beoplay S3 are based on the link. If Wagner has been let loose on the Beolab 90 as well, a large floor speaker, it is plausible that he could base the design on a column of stacked . Which is what your picture shows.

I just saw Millemissen's post in the "something big"-thread. The icon in that

So here's what my imagination is telling me. Based the above stack of dice, MM's posted teaser, and hsorile's post below, as well as talk of room adaptation abound... is B&O creating motorized speakers? That is, each of the dice is a speaker with one or multiple driver units, which rotate independently around the vertical axis, to point their drivers at angles which adapt to the room. 

I can't quite figure out how they'd measure the room, apart from an external microphone, or microphones, placed at key listening locations during the calibration process. But there has to be more than that. Maybe in addition to the microphone calibration, there's a computer involved, with a usb connection and software that also takes into account the dimensions of the room into some algorithm.

Of course my imagination is often wrong.
