Hi Tph,

That would make it a lot better. But still, it is a bit random way to place it. 

Feels like it would be easier to hang it from the ceiling then. But loose the touch option. Or just take out a latter every time😂

Or use the Essence Remote....or the app.

Ye but thats much more boring than balancing on a latter, and the point was to still touch it. 

On a serious note, it would look rather striking to have the Edge in the middle of the ceiling in a room with a good height on it. 

I assume the wallmount would work in the ceiling as well.

First impressions are great. I like it a lot and think it will do well. Would look perfect in my place; it would be displayed as a sculptural piece. Perhaps I'll buy one and post some pictures in due course. Good effort B&O :)

I don't use any Bluetooth devices, so this one won't be for me ..again.

I really don't get the placement options.  If you face it (assuming the speakers are the front), 1/2 the sound (minus bass) is going in the other direction.  Mount it on the wall and most of the sound is going perpendicular to you.  Obviously, they know this so I hope their audio processing magic to compensate for this is fantastic...

I don't think its meant to face the Wall, it's meant to be a 90deg so sound comes out left and right.

It then becomes a problem where to put it!

A lot of people have an open kitchen-dining room-living room area (at least in Scandinavia).

Could be placed on the wall - one side towards the kitchen, the other - the one with the woofer ;-) - towards the living room part.

I think that is definitely the idea

Hi Millemis

I have read your question and answer regarding Beosund Edge,

You missed the tech spec's - try this link.

kind regards

This is just weird - the design is weird, the rocking-to-adjust-volume is weird, the left and right channels facing opposite directions, the awkward wall-mounting - it's all just weird. I won't judge until I see/hear in person, of course, but this isn't something I can get exciteda about. I hope I'm wrong!
