Lots of exciting things happening these days and the new TVs have gotten a lot of talk time on the forum.

But we know two new music systems are coming as well, Beosound 1 & 2. I went passed my local dealer today, and according to him he is getting Beosound 1, the smaler of the two, tomorrow. Ha was supposed to have gotten it today! That was a lot sooner than I expected. If he does I'll take a few pictures tomorrow or the day after, if no one beats me to it. :-) So in the mean time, lets have a round-up on what we know:

Both Beosound 1 and Beosound 2 have the shape of a standing aluminium cone. Tweeters and woofers are pointed up/down and use acoustic lense designs to spread the sound. Beosound 1 have one tweeter pointing upwards and one woofer pointing downwards. I know that Beosound 2 has one more element, making it a three-way system, but not sure how it is placed. Beosound 1 has a built in battery and is intended to be moved around. Beosound 1 is about 30cm tall. Beosound 2 is higher. I don't know how much, but judging from the pictures showing the two together I would guess about 40cm. Both have a play/pause/join button on top, and a physical wheel for controlling volume. As a matter of fact, the top of both looks a lot like the Essence remote placed on top of an acoustic lens. Prices are approx 1400 and 1700 euro, respectively.

Does anyone have more information?
