    Re: B&O at the movies / TV

    Marchlands - Spooky new ITV drama features a Beovision 6002 in the "1987" house.

    Funny, since it is more of a 70s TV! It's nice to think that they had to use a '77 B&O TV in a programme set in '87 to make it look current - A testament to B&O design I would say, an MX or LX would look far too modern!

    In the movie "Sliver", with Alex Baldwin and Sharon Stone there are several scenes in his apartment where a pair of BL8000 and Beocenter 9500 is visible.

    Totally forgot...

    Wifey was watching (I was reading, thank you) another of the Law & Order spinoffs the other night, the new one: L&O - L.A. The episode was: Silver Lake.

    She yelled out (as she is now trained): "Jaffy, Jaffy -look -your speakers!"

    I rolled an eye over -missed the speakers -caught a BS of some flavor.

    Not to spoil it, but the plot revolves around A/V and "high end" installations.

    Re: B&O at the movies / TV

    I am far from a Beolab expert - being stuck in the 70s and all - but I believe Matthew Perry's character in Mr. Sunshine had Beolabs in his apartment.  Unfortunately, what they were playing were sound effects from Wii games he and his assistant were playing.

    Current primary listening:  SMMC20EN -> BG4002 -> BM4000 -> Beovox M70

    "Wild Target" an amusing English comedy about an assassin and his target :)

    Made even nicer by seeing the assassin at work in his dining room with a Beosound 9000 playing French Language lessons :) and a Beo4 at his finger tips [ now there is authenticity for you ! ]

    And then when the members of the cast (trying not to give the plot away !) repair to a hotel their is a Beocom 2 in the bedroom :)

    First B&O (1976) was a Beogram 1500 ... latest (2011) change has been to couple the BL11 with the BL6Ks *sounds superb*

    In Entourage, Eric's business partner Scott has a Beosound 1 in his office.

    A Clockwork Orange (Kubrik, 1971): Beomaster and Beolab 5000, as components in Alex' stereo.

    It surprisingly seems that nobody in the entire www (as we're speaking of a famous piece of audio equipment in a very very famous film) have noticed that so far !

    BTW: any clue about the rest of the (non B&O) futuristic components (e.g.: tape recorder...) ?

    Really? I'm sure it has been mentioned three times or so in this thread alone Big Smile

    The turntable was Hydraulic Reference by Transcriptors.

    EDIT: Oddly enough, it was the first time on this thread Yes -  thumbs up Otherwise, this is pretty much running in circles...

    Not just on this thread...

    The turntable is the only "officially identified" item (by director himself too).

    But what about tape recorder? And speakers?

    Re: B&O at the movies / TV

    In The Mechanic (with Jason Statham), the lead character uses a Beo4 to open a sliding wall panel. There is a Beovision 7 as well on the same wall. His boss has an Ouverture in his office, proudly displayed!!

    BeoCom 5 and BeoCom 2 in the new movie In Time, starring Justin Timberlake and a good friend of mine, Alex Pettyfer. Quite a fun adventure movie with a sci-fi undertone.
