Low bandwith sucks!

MM

Who is talking about low bandwith?

People keep saying in various threads tha B&O should retain the "iconic" products, beolab 8000/8002 etc.

this is a forum full of enthusiasts who like the older products and in reality bear no relation to the actual customer base.  The Bl800 design is old and not in anyway attractive to most customers in 2013, even on the wall brackets.

if they were still selling, they would still be making them.

Beoworld is in danger of becoming a Porsche 911 forum where a small number of people who are passionate about the history can't u dear stand why the company evolve the product range beyond something the minority of enthusiasts love, but which is not saleable in the modern world

A lot of people still have to live with low bandwith...😭

Sadly, not everybody yet has access to high speed internet connections...I can tell you that in Denmark (as in a lot of other countries) there are still a lot of 'dark spots' when it comes to cell phone coverage. Many can not even get optical cabled broadband -but have to live with ADSL connections...

Those damned cell phone companies are now bragging about their 4G -while they can not even offer a decent 3G coverage for all customers...😡

-and if the newer products were selling well, B&O would not be in a crisis...👍

B&O has big challenges, and please name me an A/V company that doesn't..  Loewe has a crisis, and I think their dance with the devil will be (sadly) a short one.

For Me ! Bang & Olufsen should concentrate his energy to produce only innovative and quality speakers for Home and Cars ! Beo should stop with TVs, old Phones and BeoPlay's toys ! 

Allthough I'm a vivid lover of the BL8000 design.. maybe it's time to let it go... It's been here since the early '90's.

Also to be adapted/upgraded : BV7.. It was a sculpture when it was released.. but now it's "fat" when you look at these rasor thin TV's from Samsung...

The BV4 85 and 103 were more of a statement; but utterly out of touch with regard to the current economic crisis... Maybe they can still be produced in a build to order scenario... 

BL 2, 3, 5, 9, 11 need to stay :-)

Anyway... Tue might be on the right track in regard to cleaning up the current product range... let's see what Struer has up its sleeves...

There is much fun to come!

My lips are sealed...👍 Although, with the right amount of Scotch - I could possibly let anything slip...
