Beosound Balance

at least, thanks to you, we have some and some impressions of what to deal with ;-)

Sorry for the duplicates..

I quite like the look of it. It's again something special and can imagine it to be quite powerful. And as a person who never grew to the looks of the Bs1 or 2 this is really nice. 

On the other hand, we have enough of this type of speakers and i would rather appreciate something more useful / something that isn't there, like a real audiomaster, or beosystem 5'ish.

Am I the only one surprised by the global lack of advertising on B&O web site in particular and visibility all around the web in general?

Thank you Beozip, you're ahead of everybody including Bang & Olufsen themselves!

Looks quite big so could deliver a big sound.

It does.

 

My dealer surprised me by firing up the Balance "which stands covered by a blanket, a bit hidden".
My first thought when I turned around was "Why starts that Edge playing?" (which is placed about 3 meters away).

Even covered by a blanket, it plays loud (and deep.)

Quite a challenge to achieve "Less is More" while having the Beovirus.

Seems their is a lot connections port in it, more about that/them???

From left to right as far as I can distinguish:

1 - I dont know.
2 - USB
3 - Aux IN.
4 - Power
5/6 - Ethernet

Looks like 2x Ethernet at right. Maybe for stereo pairing 😐

That top surface looks interesting. Judging by the marks, volume is adjusted by a circular motion. Reminds me of a giant H9 touch surface.

Fundamentally, it has an air of a beefed up S3 quality to it - in terms of function and purpose.

At 2250,00 €, that's pretty steep when you start looking at what else is on offer (from B&O themselves, not competitors), in which case, I'm quite interested to get the full picture once it's officially announced.

Form wise, I pray this isn't B&O trying to "catch up" with Homepod, Echo Studio, Sound X, etc.
