B&O product history since 1991: Ridiculously long to list in a signature.
From past experience ( last dealer meeting in Cannes approx 2008?? ) I would expect it’ll be the same cr8p in different colours?
Would love it if there were some new innovative products.
When B&O do the things well it is a joy, but for over 10 yeas now it’s been a pain!
If Balance is taken into account, you should also add the Harmony 88!

Another one:
- Beolit 20, as the successor of the Beolit 17. Somewhere in winter 2020 or spring 2021.

I can see this happening sooner rather than later.
B&O is going to prioritise products which which will generate the quickest and biggest returns. I wouldn't expect brand new major big hitting releases which need intensive dealer support and so on. I'd expect to see more consumer-led products and updates to existing bigger-selling products.
As much as we're all lauding this CX/C9 + Stage stand, it's actually a very basic product with a relatively high markup.
I really hope the 20 will have NL-support!
Dont forget that they also launched
Beosound A1
Beoplay E8 Sport
And They will also launch a Gaming Headset.
So they are launching a lot of products compared to before.
Beovision Harmony 77" 2nd Gen, Beolab 5, Beolab 17, Beosound 1, Beoplay M3, Beoplay Portal, Beoplay Earset, Beoliving Intelligence
Aussie Michael:Ah, when was the AGM, so if they are set to launch 10 new products, it would have been from that point. I wonder if new colours is a new product, or new product means all-new product.
The 10+ was said way before the AGM
Emil Jensen:The 10+ was said way before the AGM Beovision Eclipse, Beolab 5, Beolab 17, Beosound 1 Google assist, Beoplay M3, Beoplay H6, Beoplay Earset
KMA: Do we have a date(ish) when this was communicated? It would be nice to have a reference point in time.

The Beolit20 turned up in the FCC ID database. Looks like it's going to be bluetooth only... and probably not released before mid February 2021. (Short-Term Confidentiality)

I wonder, if there is something in the category ‘gaming’ coming.
The launch of the new Xbox is very soon - and a cooperation with Microsoft was already hinted.

Following on from claiming new colours to be new products they are soon to start classifying anything sold in pairs (headphones) as two products.
Ban boring signatures!

Headphones
Sure - must be headphones.
But it can’t just be ‘headphones’ with an Xbox/B&O logo.....that would be ridiculoous.
Immmersive audio is a big thing for gamers.
At least it must be something with a built-in microphone - maybe wireless.....
Obviously B&O is expecting to benefit in this market.
Disclaimer! Not being a gamer I really have no idea of what a gamer would expect from a ‘new’ headset.

Yes they already do that. I can understand that they want to sell a lot but why say 10 new things if they are not really new??? New colors don't make a product new
