As for NL, Henrik from BOTF said "it will have BeoRemote Halo Support in Q1-Q2 and BeoLink Support in Q3-Q4"

Wonderful thing, need one at minimum once NL or equivalent and compatibility with Beoremote Halo is in place. And more units once stereo pairing is possible as "native" not through Chromecast as that fundamentally limits usability for anyone who want to use built-in streaming or is not in Google ecosystem.

Very eager to hear how it sounds! Supergood job B&O! 😕

What I have noticed is that DEEZER is NOT integrated in the Level or in the Balance. 

Is this the "new" thing that we will not be able to use Deezer with the B&O-app anymore with all new products from the new plattform? What I can see it is just Chromecast support, and with that You must use the native streaming app to controll the music.

B&O meets Apple MagSafe...

This does seem to highlight the direction B&O are going (and what was explained to me by my dealer a while back after one of the big dealer meetings)

i.e that Airplay / CC and voice would be the primary control paradigms.

The implication of that decision seems to me the the B&O app would gain less emphasis and development resources, and I think over the last year or two we have seen just that.

I am pleased with the support for Spotify Connect - after all that is my main music source.

If you need Roon there just use CC as endpoint - should be sufficient for that sort of system.

And as per statement from Henrik/BOTF there will be support for NL later this year.

But why is the new BS Level compatible with Beoremote ONE but the BS Balance not?

..... and that the B&O app will only be a setup/diag/information tool, not more.

Signs of this direction IMO, there is no more B&O app enhancements/fixes in the music area since a while, on the other side new Support, Diagnostic, History sections are being developed.

That is just AWESOME! After long time in my opinion, a product comes out on the basis of B&O standards and tradition. It resembles Beosystem 10 and it is truly going to be iconic as it seems they have pre-thought on compatibility and future upgrades possibilities. Will definitely buy!
