Hi,

I just took a look at the new pricelist for april. The Beoplay A6 is gone. Very sad when the latest software in the product has made the A6 very stable.

Maybe an update is expected... Like the BeoLit 12/15/17.. more or less the same design.. different technology.

I hope there’s an updated version with new number incoming, but fear the successor is already out, M5.

If someone has some info, please share it with us. If not a new version is on the way, I’ll have to get an A6 before it’s all gone.

I don't know if i'm looking in the wrong place, but on beoplay.com, the A6 is still for sale. Im in the UK, so might be behind with the rest of the world. I hope they don't stop production, because I only bought 3 x A6's late last year.

They stopped the Beosound Moment as soon as I bought that too. So I hope there will still be updates for all this tech and that I don't have to buy new speakers again.

I have an A6 in perfect condition for sale (gray speaker cover), photo below. Bought in June 2017, so it's still well-covered by warranty. Will ship to anywhere in Europe (I'm based in Finland). If interested, just send a private message here at BeoWorld. I have the original package for shipping the A6.

It is still available on beoplay.com ?

I just sold my Moment and A6. I will stay away from the newer B&O for some time now, they need to find the path they will go, and I will se how Airplay 2, and so on will be integrated into the newer systems, and wait to see if a newer audio system will be available.

But lately it seems that just after the SW (that should have been there from day 1) is beta fixed, and the product is stable, they become EOL.

I am not so sure that A6 ‘is gone’.

I rather think that a new ‘Google Assistant/voicecontrol’ enabled version is in the pipeline....

......but these are only my thoughts.
