Well.. we've known about this for a little while since we heard the design team singing 'White Christmas' in summer, but we thought i'd leave it until the last minute so you don't have as long to wait in order to find out. Us sheep hate waiting, and we assume you humans are the same!

Not sure if you already know that BeoLab 6000 and BeoLab 3500 are coming in white? (pictured.. it takes ages to upload from our sheepcam) - however...

Tomorrow, at the Dealer Conference at the Hotel Martinez, Cannes, France - dealers will be shown a product in the current range that will be produced as a limited edition 'all-white' version.. There will be 1,500 examples/pairs or whatever produced as a numbered and certificated run for the whole world, and once they are gone - no more will be produced.

I really cannot say what they will be, as we will be lamb-chops if we get rumbled - but dealers will be able to pre-order when they see it/them tomorrow in Cannes. So, if you have your dealers mobile number, i would consider texting him/her with an advance order tomorrow.

lets hope these white offerings are not all B&O has to offer- they should have scapped the 6000 not paint it white

Thanks for that 'teaser' sheep! 😁

Anyone care to guess what the product is?

White 6000s should be very pretty.  I have always found the 6000s one of the prettiest speakers and the sound is much better than many give them credit for. After listening to Beolab 1s, Beolab 4000s, and Beolab 9s for years, a re-arranging of our speakers moved our 6000s from rears to a link room and I was amazed at how good they sounded.

Both speakers look very good in white, but I think it takes time to get used to white B&O...

No - i think we are misunderstanding the sheep..

White BL6000 and White BL3500 are going to be released.. fact.

There is a 'secret' product that will be unveiled tomorrow, that will be made of 1500 pieces worldwide as a special edition.  Personally, i think it may be the BL8000 in white, but i could well be wrong..

Beolab 5s? Or would 1500 pieces not tally?
