I sold my beolit 17, no support on multiroom. I like integrated sollutions so when I walk outside I just push a button. Black.... does this mean it will be replaced, as B&O often make one final edition in black and than discontinue?

ETA 7 May.😁

I don’t think that it’s a discontinue.

When they were launching BS1 they said they expect to launch a variety of colours.

In early press releases we saw a multitude of colours.

The black looks good.

Yeah black is nice, white would have been even better🙂

I also get another essence remote with it, does this mean I can have 2 and join and set volume on both at the same time?

Than I have full stereo, my neighbours will love me for that😡

Piano black and polished white would make a nice stereo pair.

what do you mean by you getting a remote with it. you’ll purchase one or it’s a promo? how does the remote even connect to the beosound? bluetooth?

Yup I have ordered one, not getting anything for free. It needs to be connected through bluetooth it does not have an IR . Maybe someone can elaborate?

Hi

With the Bang & Olufsen app you can go into the products section and pair an Essence remote with Bluetooth to either BeoSound 1 or 2.

The BeoSound 1 is ongoing and the black is simply a limited edition.

Great. Is stereo pairing possible?

What functions would the remote allow? pause and resume an airplay stream?

Got the beosound 1 today, Black😁. Can anybody shad a light on this, I cannot join with an Essence MKII. The other way around it works but the Essence MKII doesn’t see the beosound. With the core any of the 3 no problem.
