Very limited stock, be quick!

All units come in WHITE only (you can buy different colour socks)

This is the Non-Bluetooth version.

Spotify Connect built-in for a more seamless and hassle-free experience

Beautiful from all angles The A9 is designed and crafted like a beautiful piece of furniture - with a careful selection of materials and a great attention to detail.
The days wanting to hide your bulky stereo are over.
No matter where you chose to place the A9, it's going to look beautiful.
Magic touch volume control We added a bit of magic to the A9 volume control. Don't look for a volume dial or buttons, just swipe your hand gently sideways along the top and the volume will increase. Its like having a magic touch.
Just add music…
The A9 is a complete stereo system in one very neat package. This means that you won't have to buy extra amplifiers, speakers, cables or other expensive and ugly accessories to make music flow through
your home. All you need is a phone, a tablet or a music player that streams music through Apple Airplay or the open streaming standard DLNA. If you are more of a cable guy, you'll find both mini
jack and phono connector as well.

    All that info in the description but nothing about the sound quality.

      I dont think anyone would be buying this for the sound quality aspect

    read reviews on this. Apparently the sound quality isn't nearly as good as some speakers a quarter the price.

      of course not, because they had to take aesthetics into account

    "The A9 is a complete stereo system in one very neat package"

    Pardon my ignorance… but how can they call it a stereo system, when there's only one speaker?

    For the price (and its bizarre look), I better be able to stick it on the roof and get satellite Foxtel!

    • SBOB on 11/06/2015 - 15:00

      Diameter x height x footprint
      70.1 x 90.8 x 41.1 cm
      Driver units 1 x 8" woofer
      2 x 3” midrange 2 x ¾” tweeters

      technically its not one 'speaker' its multiple speakers behind whatever that front screen is so technically it could be playing the left and right channels out each of the midrange/tweeter combos separately (but obviously only with about 60cm of separation)

    • [Deactivated] on 11/06/2015 - 19:20

      You must have not being following the Netflix deals on ozbargain.

        As for Netflix, through the Coles optus phone deals I've got 12 months credit, which I'm quite happily using. ;)

    Thanks for all the comments guys. It made for an amusing read :-)
    The A9 is not for everyone. The price is a good $400-$500 cheaper than any B&O store will offer. If you are in the market for an A9 it's a huge bargain! The A9, like most B&O products are about sound AND style. It may not be your style, but style nonetheless.

    Happy shopping!

      Then it must be correct!

  • berger on 11/06/2015 - 21:17

    This is a pretty amazing speaker. RRP of $2990 is scary, but I got mine at a great price.

    Unique look, you can also wall mount these, comes with about a 3 meter cable so you can place it where you want, can also connect a network cable into your home network or just use wifi.

    I use mine with wifi only. It's great with Spotify, you select a playlist, or radio station and the A9 does the rest. It also steams AirPlay so all music apps on your phone will work. You can even use it at a party and have guest pick their own music. Strangely you can control the speaker when your not even home.

    I use mine on a daily basis, we entertain a bit so it's always on, get plenty of comments on it, we have a custom cover and everyone comes up to touch it.

    Check out www.skiniplay.com - cover art for the speaker too.

    There are plenty of other cheaper options out there, but you pay for style and quality.

    • Jackson on 13/06/2015 - 00:41

      You pay for style and quality, then you pay some more for the over engineering, pay some more for the name, and some more for the prestige. In the end you rationalise it by telling yourself you deserve it, because you are a hard worker/make sacrifices elsewhere, or you earn enough because you are especially gifted, or maybe even because you are going to get 10 years of use out of it and its worth a few cents a day at that rate. Mostly because it makes you feel better. In the end the feeling wears off pretty quick, and you are no happier than if you got a great 1000 dollar speaker. It's the same with most things really
