    QUICKFIRE QUIZ ANSWERS!!

    QUICKFIRE QUIZ - Entries now closed.

    Now for the Answers you have been waiting for!!!!

    Some could have had more than one answer, granted - but in my mind that made it a bit more fun and open to chance! So, without further ado - here are the questions with a description of their answers..

    1)    A heart, a kidney, a liver - added to something a plumber works with? These speak for themselves..

    You all got the "organ", then the "pipe" (something a plumber works with), then of course a reference to speaker - which of course means the only 'organ pipe' type speaker in the range - BEOLAB 8000

    -----

    2)    Personally speaking, this headgear can get you in the fast lane!

    Well, personal headgear refers to Earphones, and the only headphones that share a name with something that can go in the fast lane are named after a fast Audi - the A8. So, the answer is the A8 Earphones.

    -----

    3)    In the Bang & Olufsen newspapers, this is the premier.

    Easy peasy this one.  Newspapers are the Media, Bang & Olufsen is the Beo, and the premier refers to the Number 1 - So, the answer is BeoMedia 1

    -----

    4)    Controlling an all-wheel-drive Audi

    Think Controller, an all wheel drive Audi is a Quattro, and Quattro is FOUR. Which remote has the number 4 in it? Of course - the Beo4 !!

    -----

    5)    A musical piece from behind closed doors

    Musical piece - Overture, and the Ouverture has glass doors that close when the unit is in use. Answer - the BeoSound Ouverture.

    -----

    6)    Store your B&O in the loft – or sound like it!

    Insanely easy.  Loft - Attic - Attyca. The answer - Attyca Furniture.

    -----

    7)    One more than six bonds displaying in red.

    One more than six = 7.  (James) Bond = 007. Look up the BeoCenter 7007 on BeoWorld and the display is Red LED.  So, it is of course the BeoCenter 7007.

    -----

    8)    First on the stack with two arms!

    First on the stack = Stacking System.  The BeoSystem 5000 was the first stacking system to have a record deck with a tangential arm record deck. So, the answer is the BeoGram 5005.

    -----

    9)    The Famous Five would talk loudly about these.

    Talk Loudly = Loud Speaker.  The famous five are classics, as are the famous five sided speakers that are the answer!  These are of course - the BeoLab or BeoVox Penta!

    -----

    10)     Well connected in B&O circles, but taking an inactive stance.

    Well connected was a referral meaning this product can be connected to B&O products - or indeed connected can mean Linked.  Inactive can also be called Passive.  So, think Link and Passive, and you get a Beolink Passive!

    -----

    I will be announcing the winner shortly in a news item because i feel like keeping you all in suspense for a bit.. Devil

    Do the answers look easy once i explain them?  Do you admit it wasn't rocket science?

    Peter nearly disowned me for going so easy on everyone!!!

    Re: QUICKFIRE QUIZ ANSWERS!!

    And we did actually get quite a little of flurry of entries between 5pm and 7pm tonight - which was refreshing. Smile

    Some very good entrants too, who were obviously biding their time waiting for someone to blab an answer or two!!

    Thought that might cheer you up! Big Smile

    Can i just give a mention to member 'joynsyde" who clearly thinks on a much higher plane than us halfwits, and actually converted quite simple clues into something that would make the Da Vinci code look a doddle.  She is one clever cookie, and actually belongs on Mensa-World.

    Tip - i'm thick, dumb it down !!  LaughingLaughing

    Thank you to all that entered - it was great fun, and i've been chuckling to myself all evening reading your entries and attached curses!

    Lee's the new Ted Rogers Laughing 321

    Just watched that clip for a bit of a nostalgia-trip, and i now realise the show is based on a show called "un-dos-tres" (see the credits).

    After all these years of watching Ted Rogers go 3-2-1 with his fingers, the pillock should have been going 1-2-3 !!! 

    I am officially gutted at their tardiness and lack of attention to detail.

    No - thumbs downLaughing
