I have not heard them. But a DSP controlled speaker in this class that does not correct timing between drivers to create a time coincident output is, in my view, flawed. As far as I know the technology has not 'trickled' down to smaller models yet either. Other (older) speaker models from B&O is definitely not in the class of the Beolab 90. @Rodrat2's description of the targeted demographic is spot on.
I've heard the Beolab 90, it sounds good to my ageing ears
I didn't realise that it isn't time-aligned. Agree that does seem to be a pretty big flaw (unless they had a good reason for deciding not to)
I may be being stupid here, but how could the 90 do its beam steering without being time-aligned?
