What new products/features do we expect or hope to see in 2022?

 

Stage mk2 with multi-speaker support

BL17 replacement (Mozart)

BL50 replacement (Mozart)

Mozart software update to allow for speakers such as Level to be used as surrounds with a BeoVision

83" Harmony

a better Spotify itnegration in the core and mozart platforms?

 

Very little I imagine

They’ve had a pretty busy release schedule for the last 2 years after all

That and pandemic issues will slow releasing

Think they said so in their last investor presentation

 

  • An extendable Stage is likely and very exciting. I hope the new Stage can be extended with Mozart speakers rather than the traditional Beolab speakers. This would make more sense to me because people who spent 10 thousand euros on speakers are probably more likely to have a Beovision rather than a Stage anyway. The B&O website recently added a "Soundbars" section, looks like some preparation work is already going on 🙂.
  • I would love to see some of the older generation products be updated to the Mozart platform with minimal design changes. I'm thinking in particular of the A9 and Beosound 2, still two of the most beautiful products in the current B&O lineup in my opinion.
  • In terms of software I hope for further refinements and improvements like we have seen this year. More consistency in the app would be nice, now there are odd differences in the configuration pages between various products.
  • B&O Radio is very likely coming to older products. Hopefully with some improvements, like easier sorting of favourite stations etc.
  • My number one feature request would be native Apple Music integration. Not sure how likely this one is, but at least this is slowely rolling out to other products with GVA, so there is hope.

Definitly not a replacement for the 50’s

Some replacement for the 17’s.. could be.

A replacement for the M3 could also be handy.

I am concerned that we won’t see that much. My dealer told me that they struggle to deliver some of the new products based on the Mozart platform due to delivery issues.

Ie the Emerge is difficult to deliver as B&O probably prioritise the BL28 over the Emerge.

But I do hope as well.

However. Software improvement should be possible - and I hope some will be made.

As far and I understand the current product line, the replacement of the M3 is called Beosound Emerge!

and concerning the 50’s, I also think it’s too early for a replacement. Maybe a mkii will add Mozart to them.

Plus one here that wants an upgrade to the Beosound 2. I would like to have room compensation in the BS2, for instance.

Other than that I think they said there would be 7 new or upgrade releases in 2022. I’m just dying to know more of what those will be :).

My wish, in addition to the BS2 is more options of finishes for the Level. 2 options are just way too few.

At least the Emerge has been said to make a comeback in the spring.

Oh yes, I would love a Level in Bronze and Walnut. But somehow I hope it doesn't come too soon because I just bought with the gold tone 😂

A physically extendable Stage?
Make it as wide as you have room for.

Not that I need one. I don't care about TV at all. It was just an idea.
