I expect that the new A9, an Airplay alt-speakerset will be announced, and the new BV11 of course. Fingers crossed . . .

What about a new BS5e with wifi controll, Airplay & DLNA and an own app? Perhaps any updates for the BS5 range.

Let's wait and see. Exiting!

The FlatPanels invitation (shown in their article) talks about "a symphony ..." ... therefore must include an up-market audio product ?

But why followed by "... your senses" ? Maybe my joke about a vibrating Cona lookalike is not far off ?

And is there any significance in the photo itself ?

Oh the speculation is going to drive us all nuts !!

I wouldn't expect more than the BV11. They talk about a line of products. The BV11 comes in 2 sizes... that is a line of products, non?

A TV that has got some an integrated media player, and or internet access. Think of the difference between a mobile phone and a smartphone.

About the BS5Encore:

All the have to do is an SoftwareUpdate:

With:

- Covers of the Radio-Stations

- Wifi Control from Beo6

- Wifi Control from Apple Products (so you can with BM5/BS5)

- Airplay? (is this possible only with an SW Update) - because it´s only Wifi??

 

B&O must doing their Job right - and they must "think their Ideas through the end" before the launch new products!

The plot thickens!

"At the launch event a new Bang & Olufsen product will be unveiled. Bang & Olufsen is the exclusive line of products from the Danish electronics maker. New B&O Play products for the mainstream market will also be unveiled earlier in October." says the page.

So a B&O product on the 10th, that's the BV11, and a Beoplay product on the 4th (earlier in october).

Now THAT would be an exciting addition to our home

Hooray - Philippe is back !

( I wonder how LinkPlayer2 is progressing ? )

( ( maybe Philippe can give us some multiple Airplay speaker support without having to use iTunes Smile ?)

It's probably pretty accurate though. Looks very nice.

Rather have that than a V1 anyday.

It'll probably be a big seller !

Indeed, if it looks as nice as the BV10, has the Media capabilities and advance platform features of the V1, and has some way of connecting it to a ML network, I'll certainly be tempted.

I would like to see anything, that can bring me to buy a digital music system WITH the ability to use my ML Setup. I want to hear N.Radio, FM Radio, N.-Music throughout the house and control everything through the iPhone/iPad or Beo6 similar device.

Picture looks pretty authentic to me exactly as I have been told my dealer bv11 is thinner than 10 with a smaller speaker like bv9

Seems to be a great TV.

But, i really think the BV10 was "very special" when it comes, a few years ago, and even now.

It's not just a small BV5, it's more than that. It's really an animated picture on the wall. And the aluminium angled frame is outstanding ! Embarrassed

Yep, that's pretty much how my dealer described the BV11 - a BV10 with smaller speaker.

Sadly, I think that BV11 will be less desirable than BV10 on a floor stand.

Seems wider.

Can't wait to see the 46" in the flesh thought.
