Seems to be a livestream from a dealer (in Germany).

There must be some official announcement before that.

But when?

He is a dealer in Münster/Westfalen. You even can get an ios app with some useful information: Search for "Drepper & Brüggen"

A new Eclipse would make sense as a dealer in the US told me he is running an unpublicized special on the current Eclipse. Maybe trying to clear old stock...

Currently: BeoLab 17, BeoLab 18, BeoSound Core, Beosound Level, Beosound A1 2nd Gen, BeoPlay S8 Connection Hub, Halo, Essence Remote

Previously: BeoSound 1 non-GVA

I assume they will not wait too long after an “official” release to present it online. So I think it is reasonable to expect this also on 24th

John from B&O/Manchester should be one of the first too, I suppose.

Please post more here, if you find something - would be nice to have this in one posting.

Eclipse 2.0 would be nice... although no new B&O in 2020/2021 for me. Just invested in the Canon Eos 5R and RF lenses...

Does that mean you have information of the Halo functionality?

I am hoping for something that can act as a front-end for a Beosound Core.

So an alternative to the App.

Most likely the Halo. It will certainly be able to control all the connected speakers, hence the picture. The availability in September was mentioned by a member here.

My dealer; was keen to stress that this should not be seen as a replacement for the BR1.

Its being targeted more for use with a Core + speakers setup.

So I'd keep expectations low with regards to its ability to control a BV.

Nice - pretty sure that the Halo’s out of the box functionality will be suited for your / that setup.

I’ve got 50s on their way to me, but given I’ll be using a third party streamer and Roon, not sure if the Halo helps me.

Not a whole lot, but if music apps are open it can go volume up and down and track back/forward. Some other apps that have similar options probably respond the same way.

Ofcourse Willie figured this out when he was bored and we showed it on a podcast a while back Stick out tongue

As we saw a number of weeks ago, it’s a beautiful piece. But I wish it operated off batteries, like the Essence remote, so it would not need to have a mains power cable attached. My use case would be sticking this on my wall to control my Core. I would want no Ethernet or power cables showing. Perhaps it will accept batteries and operate on Bluetooth like the Essence... we will have to wait and see, but based on the leak, it didn’t seem that way.

When this arrives, if anyone would care to sell me their Essence wall remote, I’d appreciate that!

A wall mounted one would look great. I am trying to decide if I want to part with my wall mounted Beosound 5. If I did, it would be a simple matter to pull the new cables in to the wall with the old cables from the Beosound 5 as I pull them out.
