new beosound (when?)

20 replies

Can we expect a new beosound in the nearby future?

Any rumours?

Yes, the BeoSound 2.

No,I mean a complete new mainsystem

In a NL-setup there is no 'mainsystem'.

I guess you will have to get used to the B&O definition of a BeoSound nowadys.

I am not sure there will be another BeoSound without included speaker beside the BS Essence 2nd gen (and the BS Moment).

Today a lot of people use their BV as a sound system as well.

I think that many dealers are waiting for a serious soundsystem from B&O.

Me too as consumer 🤒

I am waiting for a new compact iconic sound system like this 😁

Although disappointing to some of us, I'm afraid MM might be right. The fact that B&O have labeled the BS 1 & 2 as "Beosounds" doesn't bode well for those of us who are awaiting something "new" in the sans-speaker Beosound department. Although I would have to disagree with MM in that there is no "main-system in an NL-setup." Technically that might be true, but I think intuitively one would think of a BV, or Moment, or something similar to be the "Main" system. I'd think of a main system to be one which does not move, or is not portable. But then again, as I've said in other threads, I might need to go back into my old-man corner again. LOL

Moment, Essence mkii, Beoplay A9, Beoplay A6, Beosound 35.

 

And MM is correct: there is no main system anymore. All have and can have the same function in a NL system.

One can have a more iconic or sophisticated system and call it "main" system, but with NL, all audio systems are "equal"! 

 

this is, although portable,  also true for the BS1 & BS2

What do you think this new main system should do or how it should be setup?  I am asking because I agree with you but I am not sure what it should be.  It should play all of the music file formats in use today including DSD.  I would also like streaming from Apple Music, Amazon, Spotify and others.  Should there be a CD player included?  As for the design, I think something like the Beocenter 9500.  I am not a fan of wood on the newer devices.

 

....and it must be voicecontrolled (in danish, of course)!
