razlaw you have a fantastic setup i love the b&o equipment that you have. do you think that you could post a picture when you set up the 55 incher?
Yes, of course, once I can pull myself away from watching it long enough to take a picture. LOL Right now being frustrated staring at the crate in the garage waiting for the dealer to come install it.

Photoshop
It's the best photo I have of it but was taken on the bench after recapping so I took the liberty of "hiding" the tools which were strewn around at the time of photographing. As it now resides alongside my PC it's difficult to get a decent pic in situ as there's no natural daylight & flash photography just shows up the dust. Really nice amp, if not spectacular performance wise, but becoming rarer in good working order as the caterpllar tuning/volume tracks have a habit of breaking. C40's were the recommended speakers & I use (less well designed) CX50's which work brilliantly. Definately one for the collectors though - and as Peter Pan rightly points out - beautiful, even better in the flesh with the black glass top & brushed aluminium against the wood trim. Mine's in rosewood and is jaw droppingly gorgeous. Paid £5 for it as a non working ebay buy.

Haha! I thought there might be some camera-trickery going on! Will have to look out for one of these to add to the collection, but I'm really squeezed for room at the moment :D

New toy!
Beomaster 1000 - a real eBay bargain in teak for £25. Rapidly running out of room in this flat for new B&O, but just managed to squeeze this in, given its low profile, here on top of a small bookcase in my home office. Not got enough room for a separate set of speakers, so have just bought a speaker switch so I can flick between the Beomaster/Beolab 5000 and the Beomaster 1000 with the CX50s a couple of rows below. Wondering if it's worth getting another splitter so I can listen to this through my Airport Express? Already got a Beomaster 2000 and Beolab 5000 in that room, so I guess the Beomaster 1000 isn't going to blow those away musically, is it?

Rarely do i post on these sections as i humbly confess to being in the fortunate position of having pretty much what i like at home due to my job.
However...
Today i tested and cleaned my latest addition at home
In the bedroom i have a pair of BeoLab 8000 which i fitted with white frets and custom coloured the bases white. I had a BeoCenter 2 with a BeoGram 4500 next to it, but have been looking for an all-white BeoSystem for about a year..
Up came an all-white 6500 system from a friend of mine who deals in Loewe and took it in px. After a 'fingertip clean' the whole system came up like new and i set it all up tonight. Everything works perfectly (all 5 pieces including the MCP in white) and i'm delighted !!!
Like anything - if you work with it all day, every day - you can get a bit 'blase' as to the design and quality of B&O, but when you get a beautiful system like this in the exact spec you want - at 20 years old and working as well as the day it was made, you realise how much you love B&O.

PS - May i also say the images in this thread have inspired me! The attention to detail and amount of style and taste you guys have is amazing.

As for the picture quality, it is amazing. Much much better than BV7 MKIII we had before.

Is that the dark grey finish on the BeoVision?
