Of course, I forgot about that. So wire in the sound bar, and WISA to say Beolab 17s maybeSound out the LG to the Stage AND sound via the WiSA Ready/stick solution does definitely not go together - it’s either or! MM There is a tv - and there is a BV.
New BeoSound Stage!
Won't be cheap to purchase a C9 + Stage + BeoRemote. You might as well look at an Eclipse if you're going that way.
In Sweden you can get a C9 65" for SEK 35.000
BS Stage will be SEK 15.000
A BROne is SEK 2.799
Think the total package of around 53.000 SEK quite okay compared to a 65" Eclipse that in Sweden cost around SEK 127.000.
I was being facetious - I don't need a breakdown of the costs to prove it's not the same. Clearly not. But the point is the Eclipse is a) a far more unified beast and b) probably available pre-loved and/or discounted soon. Clearly the soundbar is for some people, but if you're going to spend close to £2000 on the oak version, and you don't own a C9, there might be other options.
One of the funniest things about this board is that people jump to defend the Eclipse whenever necessary, now it's switched from the Eclipse to the soundbar - there's no middle ground.

It is just two different products, a Beosound Stage customer I dont see as a Eclipse customer, and the other way around. If you do not need a great stand option, PUC, and surround processor, then the stage is interesting, if you do need it, the Eclipse is.

No need to defend the soundbar, nor the Eclipse. They both live on their own merits. Some will like the soundbar and some will not. I´m just happy that there are now one more route into the B&O brand for people that e.g want to spice up their existing TV experience.

Wow.. that is a good price. Maybe I should take a drive over the bridge 🙂

I wonder why they write that the Stage - when controlled with a BROne - needs a C9.
To my understanding the precondition is WebOS 4.5....which is installed on all new LG 2019 models.
Could it really be, that the needed app is limited to the C9 model?
Personally I would not hope so - it’s a fact that some people don’t want a (big) 55” tv for their kitchen/bedroom.
Why not let it be possible to use it (BROne controlled) with a 43” LG LCD model?
Need for official clarification here!

I really hope there will be other LG models as well; but the specs state there is a specific VLAN-connection from the Stage to the C9. So I'm afraid it really is only the C9.

From what I heard it will be the C9 and follow up models... something to do with the B&O App running on the LG Cx (which, rumours, will be a standard app when leaving the factory)

What? Unified in what what way,- your stuck with it!

Just to clarify, There is nothing special here, the app has been around for a long time.
That's not clarifying. That's confusing. Has nothing to do with that app you're showing there.
