Just received an email advising of the following new colour options:
A1 - black and deep red
H5 - moss green
H7 - cocoa brown
H8 - deep red
A6 - moss green (cover)
They are on the Play website now; available In store and online "soon" apparently.
Definitely going to go for an A1 in one of these colours myself.
Duels: Definitely going to go for an A1 in one of these colours myself.
I really love the moss green A6 cover and H5's.
Some decent colours.
Looks great. Fab website design too. It would be nice if you could change the colour of the leather strap on the A1. The black would look even better with the original tan strap.
I'll definitely be getting the deep red H8.
I'm surprised that there isn't a new offering for the A2. The A2 in deep red would be nice.
I love that B&O is having these limited editions. Great for collecting. Also nice to have choices to coordinate with one's outfit or mood.
Beogreg, I think the red on the A1 is a rose colour? That would match my new rose gold MacBook :) :) :) (my gold MacBook sadly died after 14 months of business use and Apple offered a refund!).
Duels:Picking up a black a1 tomorrow from Sheffield B&O. The dark red on the h8s is sort of a burgundy colour. Quite a dusky tone. Definitely not brown or red.

Have you seen the A8 in person? Have you been told when dealers will have them available?
meant "H8" damn that we can't edit posts in safari!

Aussie Michael:H5 moss green too :-)
Duels: Yes they are fabulous Michael. Just bought a pair. Only in store this morning. Fantastic colour in real life.

So jealous! I didn't think they were out yet.

The A1 looks amazing Duels! I'd love that colour contrasting with the tan strap. Eww Duels Windows computer - what's going on Man? ;) ;) ;)

Duels the NEW MacBook Pro is launched in OCTOBER WAIT for the all new design!!!!!!
Now that the A1 is available in black, i'm wondering if RAPHA will release it with the pink strap like they did with the H6. Now that WOULD make sense with it being a portable device!
iMac sounds great Duels. Can't wait for your opinion on the A1 especially as you are used to the BL18s so it's going to take some impressing :)

Duels thank you for the info about the rose gold :) Yes, the brand new MacBook Pro is released in October. Skylake update & brand new design. I'm sure that it will be incredible!
Aussie Michael:I'd love to hear if other people have tried going for a run in the street with the H5 and how they found it.
Don't know about running in the street .. however walking, the H5 has "no" BT receiptions issues compared to the H8.
I now use the H5 on a daily basis.
BeoNut since '75
Aussie Michael:Duels, thanks for the photos of the H5 and the A1. The A1 looks good in black. I think I will look out for the H5 in the green - it seems it takes ages for stock to arrive here lol. I think the A1 looks good next to your Dell computer. My work computer is a Toshiba and it's not a bad device considering how much I chuck it around and actually do with it. The A1 came in to its' own when I was running a national conference call and the meeting room I had booked had no conf phone - everyone was like what the heck is that device :-) I suspect you will love the A1 and even compared to the 18s - it's a different device for a different purpose. It's easy to chuck (protected) in to your bag. I find that when I am playing the a1 the sound is better when you step away from the A1 rather than be right on top of it. I'd love to hear if other people have tried going for a run in the street with the H5 and how they found it.
Duels:I am seriously impressed with the A1. Immense sound from such a small device. Not tried the H5 yet. Later at the gym......
Has anybody gotten the deep red A1 yet? I am considering an A1 for my bedroom and I think the silver or deep red is the color to go. Deep red might blend nicely with the wooden floors and white furniture I have in there. The silver one will do as well but I am afraid it will look a bit too techy.

Aussie Michael:Hi Michael. I think you should go for the red. I saw it in the shop and I love it. It will co ordinate well. It's a warm red.
I'm looking forward to seeing the red one Michael. I'm thinking it could be more of a rose colour to match my rose gold MacBook. I love that colour variety.
Hope you are excited for Thursday ;) ;) ;)

Thank you Duels. I'm concerned over the battery as the internet is full of people saying it lasts only 2 or 3 hours at a decent level. Certainly, some of the reviewers that I like have not been able to get anymore than 9 hours out of it. Hopefully B&O will fit a larger battery to it as their social media sites have people complaining about battery life on it too.
Having said that Duels, i've just got the iPhone 7 and the built in stereo speakers are very very nice. Great in the bathroom. I went for the 256GB version.
But Paul , you have expressed your hatred for the company and repeat your love for Apple?
Surely it can only end in tears.

The "Black Mirror" episode "Nosedive" describes Paul W perfectly.

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