What B&O product(s) do you intend to buy in 2020? New or used, headphone, tv, speaker, turntable, system…?

The only product I may buy is the Stage, and maybe a new remote if that would be launched.

Other than that I have all I need 🙂

Does the 27th of december 2019 count? :p

I am in for a 77’’ eclipse MK2

Also a soundstage

In a new house so just bought a LG c9 65" and will add a stage and remote to that for the secondary living room this month. The room is not that large so kept it simple and everything will go on the wall. 

If an eclipse v2 launches and follows the harmony logic (using a standard LG panel upgradable) then ill go for that in 55" for the main living room to pair with my lab 20´s. Currently there is a Beovision 11-40 there, which can move to the bedroom, but 55" is as large as I can go in that room and the TV has to rotate out from the wall due to the shape of the room and sofa position.....I am quite restricted with what works there.

I am kind of ready to upgrade the 20´s but theres nothing in the current range for me at the moment so no rush. 50´s are just too big for my living room so hopefully there will be a lab 20s size replacement in the next year or so.

Regardless, very impressed with some of the newer products and looking forward to seeing more.

BeoSound 2 and BeSound Stage to go with a new 77 inch LG E Series TV.

Beolab (8000 x 2, 2 x 1, 6000 x 4), Beoplay (A9, P6, H9 3rd Gen)

It won’t work with any series other than a c panel

The argument is that the speakers are the worst in c panels and would therefore complement well with bo stage

Thinking about a Beosound 2 for the kitchen.

It does work, just not with BR1.

I'm using mine with E7 (2017 model) and very happy with it.

I am considering a Beoplay A9 (without assistant) and perhaps another Beoplay M5.

So what is holding me back?

• I find the on-device music sources selection and integration a bit weak. The M5 device does not act as a proper "Deezer device" and the only official way[1] to make the Beoplay device play Deezer content is by feeding it a Deezer playlist or songs from the iOS app. I would much prefer to be able to use the official Deezer app on iOS/macOS and use it to remote control the speakers similar to Spotify Connect.
• It would be nice with some kind of assurance from B&O that they will keep supporting and improving the software (well, firmware) for existing devices. I have come to expect this after owning various Apple devices.

 

[1] I am aware of the Airplay2 option, which is good, but I prefer the device streaming content directly from the source instead of having data going via a tablet, phone, laptop etc.

Beolab 19 brass to go with BL18’s and Eclipse, ordered.

Beosound 1 second life for portable usage in the house and outside, second hand (too expensive new in relation to the performance). New York edition or Bronze.

Maybe Beosound 35, brass just for the looks or BL17 brass for the sound.

And maybe some E8’s if they had noice cancellation (and new colours 😁).

New products wanted: new BL3 successor with wisa, new portable multiroom speaker with beoplay price and b&o looks, successor of beosound moment with good software (same look and principle user interface)
