Not a fan - but 50 is far too young :(

I wish! Here in the UK older B&O stuff is a rarity, but I did once find a 100% mint Beolit 609 in the charity shop at the end of my old street in Sheffield. The tuner section needed some new caps, and it was through this forum that I was put in contact with Tim Jarman who was able to fix it up for me. Needless to say that Tim has had other things

I think Chris is right about the amp in the 9500 - not B&O's best ever.... In that case it might not be man enough for the Beovox Pentas, but an early pair of Beolab Pentas would not set you back that much more than the Beovoxes, and having the inbuilt 150w amp, will have more than enough power to keep you entertained! Watch out for foam rot

I never appreciated the full impact of the Beosystem 8000 components I owned until I had space to display them in a line next to each other. People who visit are drawn to the system and just seem to want to touch it and interact with it in a truly special way. JJ was a gifted designer for sure.

[quote user="Teddy_fr"] I think that every B&O product designed by Jacob Jensen is a masterpiece in itself. But for me the most accomplished (and his latest one I believe) is the Beocenter 9500, a timeless icon that every Beofan should own! Marc [/quote] Very nice - but I personally love your white Beocord 1200 Marc. That's surely

The forum has been a bit quiet lately and I was wondering what the bestest everest Jacob Jensen designed product forum members own? I've been pondering this question for a good few minutes now, and find it hard to decide between my two Beolit 600s and my Beomaster 6000 Quad. I'd be interested to hear what others think (I'm sure some Beolab

[quote user="Jandyt"] ....and they bounced back from that! I think B&O will survive this too. Andy T. [/quote] I think they had a better product mix and pricing policy back then Andy!

First critical article I've read in support of analogue vs. DAB. Shame it had to be Libby Purves, but you can't have everything I suppose...

The northern response is you're a lucky g*t then :)

OMG - Well done sir! Beats my free Beosystem 6000 hands down :)
