I've been trying to find what the size is of the new BeoSound 8, and I've had no luck. Can anyone help?

Thanks so much!

It's a published product, so it's all on the official site now.

It is actually quite big - the width approaches that of the '70s Beomaster 2000 and the Beocenter 9xxx series, for example.

Yeah, the width is actually that of the Beomaster 8000!

Thanks for the link. The specs of the BeoSound 8, if I can call them specs (very weak), do not even mention if the BeoSound 8 charges the iPod, iPhone, or iPad while inserted in the dock. I'm sure it does, but the specs don't mention it. Best regards!

It does!

I listened to this yesterday at B&O Toronto and I have to say I'm highly impressed.  All of B&O's 'smaller' stuff sounds good, but I was especially blown away by the scale of sound this thing creates.  Very lovely, and it works quite harmoniously with iPhone 4 / iPad, and looks great with either!

The salesperson stated devices can indeed charge, and quickly, with the BeoSound 8.

I bought one for my wife for x-max, I really like the quality of the sound! And it not only charges all "iTools" like iPad, iPhone, iPod - you can use it with airplay (after connecting an airport express of course) too.
