What´s your favorite David Lewis design? To me theres so many but among my favorite ones are BeoLab 5, BeoCom 2 and BeoSound 9000 all pieces of art in your living room. But I also like BeoVision 1, it´s like a sculpture and BeoVision 5 which from my point of view redefined how flat TV´s should be designed.

David Lewis work for ASUS is great too. I really like the nx90 laptop.

I´m looking forward to see what will now be the last new products from David Lewis. Hope some of them launch soon.

1. BEOLAB 6000

2. OUVERTURE

3. BEOSOUND 8

4. BV10

My all time favourite is the BeoSystem 5000/5500/6500 but is that Jacob's design? Im not sure.  I also love the CX50 lil speakers as they are cute! I guess at the time, the Avant was awesome but it looks silly now with LCD and soon OLED technology!

BS9000 for me too (very closely followed by the BL5's).

The last true "classic" from B&O for my mind. The BL5's are classics to many people but I've yet to meet anyone who isn't impressed by the BS9000. This can't be said for the design of the BL5's - they are a bit

BeoLab 8000 and BeoVision 7 and just about everything else that's slender and shiny. 🙂

The Beolab 8000, without question! :)

I also love the Ouverture / 2500 etc, and the 9000 of course!  All truly iconic designs.  

 

He will be missed.

To me:

Ouverture + Beolab 8000...this combo made me fall in love with B&O when I was 13....then I told to myself, one day I'll have this music system...

I remember what I felt as if it was yesterday.
