I still like your project very much!RäuberAgree We have already discuss about a new design for a BeoSound. No one Beomanager or designer is coming on this forum to share opinions and ideas. Really pity. Only Geoff Martin the Tonmeister comes here for learning us technical sound experience. I repost my project of a new compact BeoSound, based on a BeoLink 7000.

@ RäuberThank you. 😁🤒It is simple and minimalist. Description The plate base is in aluminium. You can control all functions like volume, tracks and the main menu ( Netradios, streaming service, Multiroom ). The black screen show your albums, titles and the simple main menu.The Beosound Audio Master is compact and wireless using WiSA, Bluetooth technologies. There is a thin detachable docking station to charge this portable device. The BeoSound Audio Master use last technologies in a compact form.The design is timeless based on the classical BeoLink 7000. 🤒
It would be nice to integrate this little bit of hardware of the Essence into all Beovisions. In this case no more plastic box would be required any more. And also the Moment would be obsolete. This way a Beovision would be a real and complete video and audio device.RegardsRäuber

Yes agree 😁In the 90's the technology used by Bang & Olufsen was so futurist. Engineers and designers were the best.🤩I am really sure that Apple was inspired many years later by the touch screen.😮Today, we must hide our BeoSound products. 😕Truly sad and tragic for the brand.😳The spirit of excellence is gone ... 🙁 Login to view imageLife could be so nice and easy!
Therefore they need to do a nice charger for the Moment tablet so you could hide away the soundheart....
This 100000%
A svelte inductive charger, or even a mere "normal" but more elegant charging station for the Moment's tablet, and the sound heart can be hidden.
Well written, Beocat47.
I also like the aesthetic of the Moment. Reading some of the comments regarding the design brings back the citation from David Lewis - the one regarding seeking a reaction with design, and not being interested whether people liked it or not. The rant regarding the design also brings back the memories from this very site when BeoSound 9000 was launched and people demanded Jacob Jensen to be reinstated as chief designer :) Maybe Peter can recall who claimed that the paint on the metal lid covering the controls was painted in a way that made it look like plastic? Or that the display was 90 deg misplaced when using the floorstand, or that the RDS info was useless due to the short display area, the glass part looked flimsy as it was not flush with the product and according to the Jensen way of design...
I have the Moment sitting on a glass table next to an iMac. They look great together. I love the angle of the SoundHeart, in the same way as the BeoCenter 2300/2500 it tilts to make operation easier: it sits at a perfect angel for operating the volume control, and you can read the display more easily. Last night I sat down with my favorite car mag as the Moment played a spot on pattern, and a song I have never (?) heard came on: I glanced over at the Moment laying on the sofa, and it display the name of the track and artist before it faded into black again. Very cool and useful.
And compared to the BS5, which was only used by me, the Moment is used by every member of the family.
