&lt;p&gt;I am sure that if my only problem was to decide which Beosystem would better suit my needs or which Beolab would be a better match to my listening environment , or if I would be better if I discarded all recent Beos and started from scratch a retrosystem , oh! then I think I would not have been happy at all .....&amp;nbsp; because it is so difficult to decide about Beosystems/labs and even more difficult to look after a retrosystem . . . .&amp;nbsp; That situation would be the ticket to anxiety.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; So , in the end I think that it is not Bang &amp;amp; Olufsen that makes the Danes happy at all.&lt;/p&gt;
