I guess I stick to Beolab 10 for now...

Hi Hiort,

Reading this thread, I realize you have an A6. How does that sound sa it's not released yet in France?

I am looking after a B&O speaker (multiroom link) to replace the Vifa which had delay issue with my BV11.

Thanks

My dealer seem excited over the Beosound 35 and claim it to be exactly what customers have been asking for. He also refer to it as a possible soundbar for a non B&O TV, so I assume the digital in should provide no delay.

I will admit, that I though more of connecting my old CD4500, when I read 'optical in'.

IMO a tv speaker of today must be made for the tv and have center speaker capacity - as we see it with the Avant speaker.

However, it B&O can sell some BS35 for non B&O tv's, it won't be that bad....for B&O (and the dealers).

Have just looked at my CD4500, cant find the 'optical out' anywhere ;)

For me the BS35 would be the perfect solution for my living room. I don't have surround sound(and don't want to), and just use the BL7.1 as a fantastic stereo speaker for my Samsung TV.

I can now get rid of the BL7.1 and the old BS3000 and move in to the new era of wireless multiroom.. Yaaaaay :)

The digital coax of the CD4500 can easely  be converted to optical. Thats how my old CD3500 is currently set up with my brothers all in one surround system only accepting HDMI and optical inputs

Also since the BS35 apperantly has a 80s display, it will match the CD4500 quite nicely

I very much enjoyed the sound of the A6 when testing it at my dealer. Dare I say more so than the wall mounted A9 I also tested when I was there. Perhaps it was the track I was listening to, but, to me, the A6's sounded noticeably crisper, while still having a more precise, solid punch.

Interested to hear how this BS35 compares :)

Have you actually seen the display of the 35?

There is not much 80's about that - and it is totally unlike the panel of the CD4500.

But yes, both have a display.

The display of the 35 is like that of the BeoRemote One.

Why does it even need a display? Most of their other products doesn't have a display either as they know full well people use their phones for doing precise actions.

I must contradict you on that!

i am sure some - or even a lot - of the users would like to be able to control it WITHOUT having to have their phone/tablet in the hand.

The BS35 can even - for the basics - be controlled by the BeoRemote One.

I remember, when the Playmaker came out, everyone (almost) cried out for a different design with some sort of display on it.

Now we finally have a device with a display - and.....

But control what?

If it's being used as a centre speaker it needs no interaction at all.

If you want to control the volume the A9 handles that with touch controls as does the A6.

If you want it to play a internet radio station mist people will either have it play by default when turned on or they will select a station from a phone, tablet or Moment. 

Eben the Moment has one side with no screens (or GO buttons) to more elegantly handle your music.

Explain to me in what way that tiny screen helps all that much.
