Hi,
Has anybody a picture of the new Beosound 8? The new speakerset for the iPod, iPhone and iPad.
It was showed this week in Denmark together with the new Beovision 10-32 inch and the Beo 6 the two way remote slightly wider than the Beo5.

Yes. Dealers have it. I managed to see it on Friday. It's ok. Dealer was more impressed than me, put it that way.
BS5 Encore sounds interesting though.

Re: Picture of Beosound 8?
Imagine two circles. Now put a thick line in between them.
BAM.
You've now seen the BeoSound 8.
It's not (to my eye) as beautiful as the BeoSound 1, but it has a feature set to beat the band. It will be an unqualified success.
(Plus, if Moxxey doesn't like it it has to be good)

Re: Picture of Beosound 8?
There's definitely some humor to be culled from the very stark "gender change" from the BeoLab 6000, BeoCom 2, etc. to the BeoSound 8!

Re: Picture of Beosound 8?
It doesn't look anything like that and, yes, I'm whining.
You can also connect an iPad or iPhone/iPod Touch.

Re: Picture of Beosound 8?
does anyone already know which connections it has? Does it have a FM Radio. With FM Radio and Aux-In alongside the iPodDock it would be perfect for one of my link rooms.
BeoVision 8-40 / BeoVision 8-32 / Beovision 6-26 / BeoSound 3200 / BeoSound 1 / BeoLab 3 / Beolab 6000 / Beolab 2000 / Beoport / Beomedia 1 / 3* Beo4 /BeoCom 5 with VOIP

Re: Picture of Beosound 8?
It's the real deal.
Here's the file from the Danish Patent Office... It also describes some patent on he BL11.
Have a look here.
The race for quality has no finish line- so technically, it's more like a death march.

Re: Picture of Beosound 8?
I was the first to post the information about the drawings from the patent office a long time ago. Guess it was in spring 2010. I often look for patent drawings and sometimes I´m lucky to find them.

Re: Picture of Beosound 8?
