Agree, it looks like a cross between an electric shaver and a toaster. Maybe B&O is outsourcing styling to the Chinese in addition to everything else.

Beovirus victim, it's gotten to be too much to list!

Yeah that was my reaction too!

And just another disposable item that will be forgotten in less than 5 years.. Why is it called P6 and not .. P2? What is the difference between an A, a P and a S in the BeoPlay range? I'm completely lost..

I miss the old days when your only dilemma was to choose between MX and LX, BeoLab and BeoVox, and BeoCenter or BeoSystem.

Who needs another speaker? Bring me a BeoPlay V2, at least I need that.

 

A P speaker is a Beolit without a battery or with something else? Or is that an M?

What's an A speaker? The one I've got was a docking thing for an iPad. 

This range is confusing. Where is an actual DAB /FM radio? 

 

Yes. I'd love to see a V2 tv. I don't need one but I am prepared to be sold one.

 

P - Portable P2, P6(A1, A2)

M - multi room/mains power M3, M5(A6, A9)

S - stereo option? S3(most)

A - Audio - A8, A2, A1, A6, A9(P1, P6)

i cant work out how the letters correspond.. or is that it? In brackets are products that could be in either category

I have a feeling S initially just stood for “Speaker” or something since the S8s are in that range too. With the S8s discontinued now though (according to http://beoplay.com/products/beoplays8), I wonder how long it’ll be until the S3 is gone too?

The S8 and S3 are both discontinued.

 

i forgot about the S8. S - Speaker sounds possible

Another colour...

Does it come with multi room option?

the designers do try /forum/general-discussion-and-questions/cecilie-manz-interview-in-dezeen

but marketing will drip feed all the exciting ideas. Having said that, I've been in market research with car customers and it's pretty dispiriting when they say all they want is a dark grey interior.
