Tuesday 25th will be the delivery and installation day only interrupted by a partial solar eclipse at high noon. My dealer was wise enough to order a few units in advance.

Well folks,I had the pleasure of attending the launch of the Theatre at my local dealer in Glasgow on Thursday evening and I must say it’s extraordinarily capable. On the showroom floor itself it was used in movie mode with rear BL28s and then purely as a sound speaker for music minus the 28s.Both made a very positive impression.However when I went into the specially created listening room, the film sound in Dolby Atmos took the effect to another level-it was pretty shattering and all encompassing! You wouldn’t believe the immersive multidirectional sound was only coming from the Theatre itself…amazing in every way.I asked to play pure music from my phone and the chap demonstrating then found the tracks as lossless versions. My scepticism,as a professional musician, regarding a sound bar treating music as if from normal speakers was well and truly squashed. If you factor in the retro sound capabilities for connecting speakers back to 1986 and the modular update possibilities of the Theatre itself, I would happily say B&O have aced it this time-after some less successful products of recent times. Do go and hear it as no video can reproduce the capabilities of this new sound bar.

 

Wow, that good… these kind of posts really make me want to pull the Theatre-trigger. You are not affiliated with B&O are you ? ;)).

I would purely buy it for music as a standalone, the BV11 with BL4000 as rears is more then enough in our cosy TV corner.

Theatre vs two Levels stereo paired ? 10 to 1 ? ;)
Theatre vs Edge  ? 5 to 1 ?
Steve help me here LOL
Edge is still so underrated….

 

 

 

I walked past this today and it reminded me of a certain product. I do love the design of the theatre!

Nice!  I hope that my Theatre ages as gracefully!

Kind regards, Steve.

Just a note. These beotalk videos are not safe for work or listening around younger family members as there is a lot of questionable language. Steve is curtious as always but other people in the chat especially Willie uses the F-word constantly while drinking bear and smoking cigars being the "coolest" guy he can be.  Other people on this chat throw around more questionable words like "full retard".

Really a shame as its hard to take their word as professional with this tone.

I don’t particularly like the individuals on this show, nor the format.

However, we should all wear big boy pants and discern for ourselves. I’m a bit fed up with moderation here and censorship there not only in other places but also at times in this forum. I find it offensive that my freedoms are curtailed by others taking offence.

l believe in absolute freedom of speech and if We don’t like what is being said, or how it is said or if people light-up a stoggie while swigging a Duff, we should simply not patronise these channels we feel are offensive.

 

Nobody is playing censor and you can make your own opinion on these videos.

The team are welcome to say what they like, my point is don't think these videos are professional conversations that you can safely play around kids in the car or at work. It's very much bro talk and all the language and posturing that comes with it.

So my point as before is play cauciously

oh lord, hope that doesn't apply to the (rare) occasion I have appeared on it!

If so, apologies.
