Back on topic! I'd say there's a 99% chance this will be replacing my A8 (which is lacking bluetooth and is the primary reason I'm switching). Has anyone gotten a chance to hear this in person?

My local B&O store told me that, because of such high demand in Europe and Asia, there's a chance this won't be released in the US until Jan 2016. Has anyone else heard this???

Still not that impressed with the styling,but if it's in that high a demand good for B&O. They need some hot selling, good margin products if they're going to survive. I'd say they need that a lot more than they need a halo statement speaker.

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

This is an exciting new product that I am looking forward to seeing in the flesh - we get a couple around 16th October I think...

The advertising talks about wake up to sound etc.....

 

Can this be connected to a Beotime? How do you wake up to sound? The problem with some of these speakers (Beolit in particular) is that you have to connect your iDevice to it before it works, turn on, turn wifi on etc. If I wanted to wake up to that I would have to wake up first and then switch it on.

I doubt Bedtime can interact with A6.

A6 has no IR eye.
