Back from my holidays - and feeling refreshed - i thought i'd do a little 10-question Quickfire Quiz. Quite easy - and the clues are all cryptic. Peter will kill me for making them so simple!!  PM me the answers you have with the title "QUIZ ANSWERS", and the winner will receive a Bang & Olufsen Vision og Legende book, a BeoWorld Desk Set, a BeoWorld Official Baseball Cap, and an Open Mind CD. Entries accepted for 1 week as of now (Friday night), then i'll announce the winner! Here are the clues..
1) A heart, a kidney, a liver - added to something a plumber works with? These speak for themselves..
2) Personally speaking, this headgear can get you in the fast lane!
3) In the Bang & Olufsen newspapers, this is the premier.
4) Controlling an all-wheel-drive Audi
5) A musical piece from behind closed doors
6) Store your B&O in the loft – or sound like it!
7) One more than six bonds displaying in red.
8) First on the stack with two arms!
9) The Famous Five would talk loudly about these.
10) Well connected in B&O circles, but taking an inactive stance. Good luck, and if you get stuck on any, please feel free to let it annoy you for hours or even days...   Lee

Peter:Think I have them all - have advertised this here!
How thoughtful Peter, to put that on the official site. BTW, Lee if I get the next three (got 7) and win, I would like to offer my goodies to the runner up. (bit optimistic, I know) Andy T.

You don't really need to look through product pages as not one of these products can be described as obscure.
The clues are in the questions, and are really pretty self explanatory! I've had one set of answers PM'd to me - so he's the winner if nobody else enters!! Come on you lot - prizes and pride at stake! 
As for the refoaming thread - another brilliant one from jandyt! I've added it to the FAQ section with the refoaming article for future reference for members and visitors. Keep up the good work Andy!

2 days left to go until the quiz closes. I am overwhelmed by the amount of PM's i have had from excited entrants, thank you to both people. 
Come on you lot - it's not that hard !! The clues are cryptic, not deeply technical. Lee

I have really been trying, but probably I am to stupid Or hopefully it could have something to do with the language.... Not that this English is that complicated, but it is always more difficult to solve problems in other languages than your own. I have taken college classes in english without any problem with the language, so come to think of it, I must be plain stupid I have 3 answers that I am sure is correct, and 2 guesses...

Hey, Guys (and Gals!) - i fully understand that it must be a little daunting when presented with a quiz in a foreign language. I was mainly berating the English for not entering. Sorry if i have offended anyone, it was never my intention.  Okay here's an example clue and answer to get you into the correct train of thought.. Maybe this will help. QUESTION/CLUE Looking between W and Y could take a Century! ANSWER Well, the Century bit is there to throw you - but here goes with how to figure it out.. Looking = SEE, then between W and Y is 'X' and a Century is 100. So, you get CX100, and this is the answer. Here is another QUESTION/CLUE Feeling calm for now, but you could flip at any second! ANSWER Obviously a Serene! --------------------------------------- Hopefully this gives you an idea of my way of thinking.. Lee

Its only easy if you know the answers. I think a few are easy, i also think a few could have more than one answer. This could drive you mad for hours, i cant wait to see the answers.

Hey Lee. Is it worth sending in seven correct answers or should I see if the other three come to me before Friday? PS, What time is your deadline in Big Ben time?
