I was looking at my Beosound 3 at breakfast this morning and I got a flash. That's the colour combo I would love on a Beolit 15 : black rubber and leather with alu grill. That simple.

....

Black/alu please !

Really? Saying what speaker you think sound best based on a youtube-clip? That is a instant credibility-loss.

I watched the clip , wearing headphones , and found it a useful means of telling how successful the "360 sound" is in comparison with the Beolit 12.  Yes at first it does seem like seeing an advert for a tv on your tv and thinking the other set has a better picture!

I don't want to sound disparaging but please!!!

Gotten 2 BeoPlay A2s one in black and one in green, they are good for portability and for the bathroom. But the cabinet resonance contributes greatly to the muffling of the sound. Not the clearest speakers.

 

B&O should introduce portable speakers to the core Bang & Olufsen line. They fact that they are not doing it is actually a little silly. Small expensive things sell better than large expensive things. Great publicity too... But you need to have the goods to back it up Core range should go up and up to inform the cheerful BeoPlay range. I think people who can afford $5000 bags can afford $1000 portables to go into them.

 

 

Huh? Wouldn't the average man on the street think why buy a VW when I can get the same in a Skoda for less?

 

not arguing just thinking that's what perhaps the logic is for the placement of portable speakers. I said to someone what I paid for the A2 and they were horrified - they also thought the A2 was big lol. Portable speakers don't fill LV bags but a different feature set, party mode or integration, materials, and design could very well :-)

Chanel and Dolce& Gabbana sent $10000 headphones down the runway. You see kids walking around the streets in headphones that cost at least $200 these days. You think $1000 will be too out of reach for a bling portable? 

PS. B&O should refresh the BeoLab3 like immediately and put them in Apple stores. What B&O seriously is market presence. Let the new generation see hey we have $5000 desktop speakers for your dorm room or new york/tokyo pied-de-terre. Take cue from Devialet's Phantom. Current Lab3s are a little harsh sounding in the highs and bass a little boomy for long term listening.

US economy is doing very well now. That's the demographic B&O should be targeting. Street + Expensive + Bling. lol..

I don't care about Dolce & Gabana.

I think I like the Beolit 15, but will not buy it due to the colors it has. Gold, pink, baby blue, it may be fashionable but certainly not for me. I cannot imagine any grown-up man buying a pink speaker? I know Apple is also selling golden iPhones and iPads but I know nobody who actually bought one. And they at least give the option to buy regular white or grey. Maybe normal colors like white, grey, aluminium and black will be added to the Beolit 15 in the future, then I will become interested and probably buy one.

Watch out, Chris. If a feminist reads that statement you could be in trouble 😁
