BEOPLAY A8
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 4, 2026 10:17I have an ultrashort show projector from Philips (U4) with AUX out available for audio in our bedroom. There are a few Beoplay A8 available and I was thinking of using one for a main speaker for the UST projector. Would …
New product launch - beosound theatre?
in Theatre · Sept 2, 2022 03:47Intriguing - seems indirectly like a tacit acknowledgement that trying to keep a TV OS up to date is pretty hard for a company the size of B&O to do, the partnership with LG acknowledged. It smarts a bit after spending $…
Beosound Explore Stereo Pair Review
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 22, 2022 07:04Despite the mixed reviews, I am really enjoying my new Beosound Explore. I already own just about every other portable B&O speaker you can get, but when used for its primary purpose of an outdoor speaker I find myself re…
Beosound 35 v's Beosound Stage
in General Discussion & Questions · Apr 16, 2021 07:23We have a tiled, rectangular open plan lounge/dining/kitchen area measuring about 6m x 14m and I am thinking to place either a Beosound 35 (if I can find one), a Beosound Stage (vertically), a pair of Beolab 3's or even …
Back in love with BeoVision
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 23, 2021 02:05Not trying to spruike anything, but I just wanted to share how I really did fall out of love with my BeoVision 11 as the OS became less and less up-to-date. We rarely watch terrestrial TV these days, instead leaning on N…
New products in the store, Harmony and Stage
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 22, 2019 12:57Agree that the Stage is very impressive. Power and projection are way ahead of any competitor at any price point that I have otherwise heard. Think it would be very sufficient in a small to medium lounge where surround o…
Some good news for Australia
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 2, 2019 07:24My partner already calls me a Chadstone whore as I am banging my credit card in there pretty much every week. As if I needed another reason to go this is very exciting - new store about 10 minutes from home :-)
Others unimpressed by B&O...
in General Discussion & Questions · Apr 25, 2019 02:14I have lusted for B&O from an early age. In many respects I used to see them as Apple - ahead of their time. People love, and will pay for Apple, because it just works. When I became old enough to actually afford to buy …
BEOVISION ECLIPSE
in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 14, 2017 13:02Even without seeing it, I couldn’t see how I could go from $4,850AU to $22,000AU for what’s effectively a very good sound bar on a fudged up LG panel. We have a BV11 55 and LG65 curved LCD in the house already and I deci…
BeoMusic app is merging with Bang & Olufsen app
in General Discussion & Questions · May 18, 2017 12:39I downloaded and found it to be totally unusable with my new Essence II running from iPhone 7. Using TuneIn it repeatedly turns itself up to Maximum volume causing most of the neighbourhood to think we had been nuked as …
Beovision 11 replacement
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 11, 2015 07:26I have an early 55" Beovision 11. My partner has just brought a new expensive Other brand 65" curved LCD UHD set. The B&O kicks the UHD hands down in perceived image quality stakes unless the UHD set is being fed a Blura…
Beolab 3 and IWS
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 17, 2015 12:02Has anyone heard if there are plans to incorporate wireless into the Beolab 3? I would really like to pair them with my penguins for rear surrounds so the 17 won't really do.

BeoPlay A2 just released
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 11, 2015 07:05I have just noticed on the B&O Play website that the very same problem that my A2 suffered when it was dropped is captured in the promotional image with the guy with the beard. On the left, under the leather strap, you c…

If you haven't bought the new A2...
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 7, 2015 00:30I did a few months ago and have used it almost every day which for me marks a good product. 2 weeks after I brought it my partner knocked it off the back of a sofa onto a tiled floor. I rushed to it expecting the worst o…

BeoPlay A2 just released
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 15, 2014 02:25Got my green one yesterday and I am quite impressed. Of course you can always pay more money and get more/better sound, but I have many different portables and small iPlayer type units and the only system I have of it's …

What's playing RIGHT NOW?
in Music & Film · Nov 2, 2014 14:02I find I need to drink a Cognac or Gran Marnier in a wing back chair when I listen to Patricia Kaas. How are you finding iTunes Radio? I find that no matter what station I set up sooner or later Celine Dion comes on! Sti…
