Why?

There is a tv - and there is a BV
Millemissen: Luke: This was a surprise Why? MM
they didn't pick me as their model (is nose and ear hair really not fashionable these days !) great price point liking your style Play ....
we tend to forget there is more to design than designing.
For me the surprise was the price ...
One could two H2s for the price of a single H6
I wonder what the differentiators are ...
BeoNut since '75
i tried the H2, worst material than H6 of course, the sound was more "boom" than the H6... good product but not so exciting.
The Beoplay A2 in flash is really beautiful!
B&O have got their web page and photography absolutely perfect on this one! Fresh, young, funky and international with class!
Well done! 11 out of 10!
There are different pics of the blue headphones, some look bluer than the others. Any ideas about their blueness?

So - they can still be fresh, Young and funky -despite the "boring old man colors"..?

Paul W: Also what the heck is going on with these boring old man colours? Beige and green?
In reply to Steffen, I was talking about the people in the campaign. The colours are horrible and are boring.
Thanks for pointing that out Steffen lovely to see you being your usual petty self! Even when I say something nice about B&O!

Sorry Paul... Were you saying something nice about B&O..? I only see you praising the people in the campaign. (your own Words)Nothing wrong with changing your mind, though.But... - your research says, that Young people will not buy into that...only B&O customers... Maybe your research is better than B&O's...
Call me petty... but let me remind you of what you wrote last week:
Paul W: Seriously, these are definitely NOTthe targeted towards the BEATS / Senheisser Momentum Mini type of buyer! Do young people honestly buy into siege and green? my research says NO! Bang & Olufsen customers will be the buyers of them as they are the ones who continue to buy into the brand.

according to the Fashion Colour Report for Autumn 2014 from New York Fashion Week the in colours are:
Radiant Orchid
Royal Blue
Aluminium
Aurora Red
Misted Yellow
Sangria
Mauve Mist
Cognac
Bright Cobalt
Cypress
I've also under the name of research checked Vogue, Elle, Topshop and Miss Selfridges ...... now my wife thinks she's getting something expensive for Christmas !
I just ordered yellow, brown and lilac ones - 3 for the price of 2
in my humble eyes I really think "Play" is on a positive roll with the A2 and H2 and it shows excitement for 2015,
I think they sound very good, and they fits very well.
Even my wife like them, not just the design, but especially also the sound.
We are going to buy 2 pairs of them, for sure. Green and Blue looks nice.
This makes, what, 5 different headphones B&O makes? Add the upcoming H8 and it's 6. Then again, companies like Klipsch that have been making high end speakers since the 1940s now seem to make a ton of different headphones. I remember when Sonance first really started getting traction for in wall speakers, within a couple of years every single speaker maker seemed to offer at least 4 or 5 different in wall/in ceiling speakers. Fashions and fads I guess...with the focus on cell phones and portable music I suppose it makes sense.

I'm afraid I'm recovering from the BeoVirus.

Upcoming H8? Oh? Hadn't heard anything about that... so, a higher end phone over and above the H6?
Very interesting indeed...
Kind regards
John... :-)
Whether it is a (bluetooth) version of the H6 or not, I don't know.
All I was told is, that it is a bluetooth headphone!
Maybe it's a Blue Tooth H2?
Jeff: Maybe it's a Blue Tooth H2?
Let's hope that would be another mythical beastie called the "H4"
The H2 look so much better in the flesh than from the photographs.. Great pricepoint too!
