Geoff Martin interview June 2020
Nice video, thank you for the link. Around 15:40 he starts takling about center sound on beovision. This is something that i definitly will try out!
Smaller, lighter, less empasis on imaging. Think of a giant A9 with prodigious power response, suitable for organ. I say screw the imaging-give me fidelity and power at a (reasonably) affordable price.Think the ultimate harmony sound centerI don’t think I could pull off denim shorts at my age! Very stylish and cool chap. Asked if Beolab 90 could be bettered, naturally answered ‘yes’. Such a successor would be an interesting concept. Wonder where they’d go after beam direction and room compensation....Perhaps some sort of immersive technology, like Fraunhofer. .
‘less empasis on imaging’......
If we are talking a pair of speakers - like the BL90’s is - there can be no improvement without ‘imaging’ as a key feature.
Making a speaker with the characteristic of an A9 with emphasis on ‘power’ and ‘fidelity’ - whatever that is - would mean making something different.
This might be ok, but it would have rather little to do with ‘a bettered (pair of) BL90’, a successor.
Given that sitting down listening to music seems to be somewhat outdated, it might even be something to consider for B&O.
As for ‘screw imaging’, it should be rather easy to run the 90’s (or the 50’) in ‘screw imaging mode’

Really interesting concept i will try this today
I became disposed to the goal I stated through extended listening over the years to my BS Century, BS2 (new), A9; my bedroom BV 8-32 and BV V1-32, as well as my Avant 32 CRT. I believe B&O tonemeisters have truly excelled at delivering truly satisfying sound when imaging is far less of a priority.In the Geoff video, he sats less directionality (i.e., imaging) yields a smaller speaker. So I’d luv that signature integrated (mono?) sound, but with far more power and far deeper bass. I think I could actually afford one such speaker (and, of course, that’s all I would need).Sort of a Shape without the shape wall of sound.BarryBarry, the *exact* opposite of what I’d want.
