Now the question is would you prefer the Beo5 or the Apple iTouch as a two way remote for the BS5? I know what Peter would say!

nlb.

In Struer, when we asked about the two way possibilities with the 'new' Beo5, they sort of winked at us and didn't dis-count it.

3 months after Jandyt's post, any news about the now famous BS5... !  ๐Ÿ™‚

I hope some dealers could see it at the meeting in Cannes in September and tel us more !  ๐Ÿ˜ณ

Is the release date for this fall or... ? 

I have recently heard October - November... (This year! ๐Ÿ˜•
I expect to see it next month in Struer at the general meeting. Hope it will be launched before new year.

I have noticed peoples frustration at the BS5.  Its a very guarded secret at present.  This is due to the fact that it is really important to Bang.  So much so that they are investing heavily into the software to ensure it hits the mark. It will be an upgradable and furture proofed product designed to give a very real Bang feel and look.  I cant give much on what it can and cant do, because its highly secretive and changes as required. Struer are watching technology at the moment and will make changes as required.

You have already caught a mock up snapshot. But the main control is a very large aluminium wheel - controlling a large tablet control panel, which as the wheel is rotated, pushed and moved highlights in the direction chosen.  The display tablet lights at these times, giving a real feedback to the user.  It is interactive and also intuitive, it will give a fantastic user experience and also be beautifully made and sound brilliant.

Think Bangsound 2 with the control box, think Bangsound 4, + new and exciting ways of interacting with music.

I think you mean BangCenter 2.

Bang, Bang :-)
