I do not like the design but that screen looks interesting. I wonder if it is a touch screen.

Wow, they are making wireless versions of their existing speakers... Look at that PVW1 : the PV1, wireless! Great! Note that the speaker have digital amplifiers built in... I suspect they come from B&O as in the PV1!
I hope that b&o will do the same quickly : it is really simple : just put some (improved) beolink wireless boxes INSIDE the speakers and beosounds... (I hope that the BLWireless will be built in the Beosound 5...)
There is still one wire left😕
I'm still not a fan of wireless, regardless of whether it's B&O, Apple, B&W or any other company. Wires just seem so much more sensible. Okay it may be a bit of hassle to get it set up in the first place, but it'll be more reliable than wireless...
Still, that B&W system should sound darn good. The XT range of speakers are really pretty fantastic...
I wonder if they'll make the XT4s available as an active system without the wireless bit? They sound pretty phenomenal as just passive speakers...
The B&W rep in the video confirms its B&O Ice Power. That is awesome for them. Complete 5.1 System around 15K Euro.

In my opinion this system is not wireless.
You will need at least a power cord....and if you have one cable running to the box, who bothers about 2?
Why don't they use some kind of rechargeable battery at least for the rear speakers?
Is someone aware of a loudspeaker with a rechargeable battery?
