All that talk about beosound 6 makes me wonder what Beosound 5 is.

Beosound 1: portable radio/cd player
Beosound 2: portable mp3 player
Beosound 3: portable radio/mp3 player
Beosound 4: sound system
Beosound 5
Beosound 6: (new?) portable mp3 player (see link)

Isn't this the rumoured new super sound system which will become the perfect setup alongside the BL5s?

There were some technical papers available showing how they plan to do it. Essentially they make the aluminium very thin but then have tiny pores in it so you can have touch sensitive areas that light up. Very clever and this will come!

The development of transparent aluminium was inevitable after Scotty's visit to San Francisco in 1986.

This is reminiscent of asking a new member of staff to go and fetch a skyhook from the store room

Oh well, not that I've got enough money for a system like that, then again I'm more than happy with my ever conservative BS3200, If it's taking it's design ques from their new direction (like the BV8) I think it'll just go to confirm that well known saying "more money than sense", or taste! 😁
