The Beolab 14 seem to have been removed from the B&O website.  Does anybody know if they have been discontinued?

Yes. I bought mine the week they announced the discontinuation, about a year ago. It probably maintained a presence on the website for quite a time after, in order to get rid of the remaining stock.

How long was it even for sale from introduction to being discontinued? Got to be one of the shortest product life cycles in Beohistory.

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

Only the 2 channel version, which is a decent Play product. But man, it was sure short lived as a Beolab.

I love my BeoLab14 system, but I am guessing it was hard to convince people you could get great sound with such small satellite speakers so sales must not have been what was expected.  I'm glad I have my 10.2 system!

I've purchased from them not too long ago.  Once I found a store to answer my email I got a salesman that was very helpful and included cables for free.  They shipped to the U.S. via DHL so I received my speakers pretty quickly.  I would buy from them again.

It was a pair of red BeoLab 4's, so they do tend to stock discontinued items.
