updated catalogue and prizes since April - BeoLab 17 gone

20 replies
BeoLab 28 is a Replacement for Lab 20! Replacement for Lab 17 will be Known around May!

Big news! This is exciting!! That’s soon!!

I hope the BL17 replacement is a powerhouse for its size as was the BL17. 

 

BTW, I heard USD$15,000 for BL28 in the US.

Oh, it would also be great to see the acoustic lens on the BL17 successor too. :)

Replacement of Lab 17 is coming in July- August! There’s no way, Level can Replace BeoLab 17!

I guess releasing a new product during summer doesn't make any sense. September then?

The new BL28 are positioned above the 18s. They can be connected via PL/WiSA and also act as Multiroom speakers in stereo with the Mozart platform (no Deezer, B&O Radio included, AP2 and Chromecast). Tactile controls on the top part and floor or wall stand.

Power a bit above 18s, with dedicated subs and 3 independent amps.

Wood lamellas and metal body in aluminium, brass and black with multiple color options for textile and wood. Should be publicly presented bye the end of April.

Design is tower-like with circular profile. A nice evolution of the needle concept of 8000s and 18s, but with its own personality.

My dealer told me it would be priced above but couldn't confirm how much higher.

Thank you, this sounds very interesting,

Hopefully a new bestseller.

The last couple of product launch have been very well received very exciting future.

Where are we going this summer? 😎

Who knows that maybe this year it makes sense to do stuff in summer for once.

Does anyone know why they abandoned Deezer and TuneIn?  This new generation of gear doesn't work with anything else I have in my house. :(

If some of the news coming out of the UK is true this morning, retailers here expect Brits to go NUTS eating out and to be packed from May onwards. ie. we'll all be eating out, drinking and exploring. No more sitting around at home on our computers.

We've seen a huge downturn since start of March 2021 in the US. Website impressions and sales are unprecedentedly down. Almost the opposite of March 2020. Scary how it's changed so much. Since everyone has started venturing out, eating out etc, people in the US are spending their cash away from their home (which was fully expected), not online or on their home.

downturn since March 21?

most economies are rebounding quickly through March / April 21....

As for Miki's post, remember Europe is more locked down than the UK and US, which are on their way out.

It will be fascinating to see how much B&O have benefited or not from the online spend while people have been mostly at home this last year. My suspicion is that they'll have done ok, but not nearly to the same extent that many others have.
