The article on lydogbilde.no went away again. Maybe they had a friendly call from B&O...

 

Copy and paste is more reliable than linking. 🙁

 

 

Am i the only one that can't see what it looks like?

All i have seen is that video of the top of the unit.  Are there any other photos?

Re: the speaker grill design.

 

I thinks it reflects the design of some cherished B&O VINTAGE GEAR.

 

 

The A9's wooden legs initially evoked the same disconnected response.

 

 

Let us see.

For me, that grille is reminiscent of the finish of the  front of a Bose WaveRadio.

Yes, I have the article on my phone and the images are still online on lydogbilde.no to watch if you have the urls...

Hi graham...

John dickinson and his team up in Tarleton . A little out of my way but it is always exciting driving up there to see new products

Have been going there since the 1980's and are such nice people and always give me great service. It is a shame Chester is now without a store , was very handy for the occasional question or smaller items and Tony and Matt were a great to deal with and of course Nigel from the early days in Liverpool. He was smashing and tremendous at customer service .

It seems the sources are down TV and Music and then you have the list button next to them. So you will probably have to navigate to Light using the list button. I guess you will be able to see the oled display now in darkness... Otherwise turning on the light will be difficult.

 

 

Ore maybe the three dot button´s can be programmed to turn the lights on/off 👍

I must visit them!

Liverpool still give outstanding service via Nick & Lee, but they are restricted in what they can sell (current new models being off their agenda).

Having said that, I did see a BV11 when last in there... so maybe they are now in the clear to sell current, if not absolutely brand new, products.
