I was surfing around the net and I found these cool active speakers (big brother of the 6000 ?)

 

 They cost around 3600,- euro's a set and I would love to compare them to a pair of 8000's

Can anybody tell me something more about these speakers because my danish is not that good

They don't put much thought into their shots do they?  Piddly little screen with four column-like speakers at each corner, and a sofa that sits at a 45 degree angle to it.  I suppose if you perched the stool on the table you might get a decent experience?

As for the speakers, they look like a BeoLab 1 had a one-night-stand with a BeoLab 6000 and 9 months later these were born!

here you have the full size photo so you can study the interior a bit better http://www.tpradio.dk/uploads/TPtube/nye_billeder/tp500c_stue.jpg 

Must say, I find these speakers a bit to big to put them as rears but they may suit well as fronts (like modern Penta's). B&O just had to make the 8000 a few inches bigger for some decent drivers...

I've had my eye on the B&W XT4s for a while. Sonically superb, although not active so you need more boxes!

The bookshelf versions are also rather nice though...

Hmmm, i wonder where they got their design concept?

the geometry just looks wrong.

What we are overlooking here is the unique feature of these speakers: taking a look at the rear left it appears that, although an active speaker it does not need to be connected to a power source. Or a signal source. Just think, you can place them anywhere without needing to connect them (but I imagine the extra bulk compared to a 6000 is down to the lead-acid batteries needed to power them?)

Ah! But in B&O's case they are powered by the magic! ;)
