I was in high-school when the B&O line came to prominence (among luxury consumers) in the US and as a tech-nerd I was smitten with them.  They were the cutting edge of technology and reeked of cool modern design.  Since then, every other consumer brand has begun to offer products of comparable and many times better quality and B&O has lost touch with the mainstream in terms of palatable design.  They really only distinguish themselves with a higher price-tag and only fools relish that distinction.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Todd M.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 8th 2008 9:31PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Bang &amp; Olfusen Forecast Turns Dim]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/07/08/bang-and-olfusen-forecast-turns-dim/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/07/08/bang-and-olfusen-forecast-turns-dim/</guid><description><![CDATA[I agree with you, Todd. I think the move towards "hidden" technology (i.e., speakers that mask as columns, etc) as opposed to technology as art/design really hurt them as well.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[JEBCEO]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 8th 2008 10:17PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Bang &amp; Olfusen Forecast Turns Dim]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/07/08/bang-and-olfusen-forecast-turns-dim/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/07/08/bang-and-olfusen-forecast-turns-dim/</guid><description><![CDATA[yeah... too bad. but the issue here is not only durability and aesthethics, from which B&O cannot be questioned, its about keeping upbreast with market demand and ground breaking technology. why don't they have LCD's or OLED's? Why isn'th there a BEO9000 DVD or Blu-ray player? I guess its because of the quality and design that is so timeless and enduring that they don't want to risk it on experimental stage techs. But, hello... thats what they did a decade ago and it was amazing! 'Guess they should wake up and rekindle their passion. By the way, the phone Serena with SAMSUNG and it's so called "intuitive design"(where o where... it's plain grotesque!), not a miss, its totally CRAP forever! ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[john]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 9th 2008 5:40AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
