    Radiograms on the up.

    Good to see these making decent money. Not just because I have one but because they are beautiful looking things.

    Indeed. They are very beautiful, I'd like to use one as a sideboard (to put my "modern" b&o system on).

    You simply can not obtain those here in the USA. On the other hand I sem to have an unlimited supply of these.

    Stunning.

    No, not Eugene's post, silly, the original post!

    My dream room would have something like the radiogram on one wall, my BG4002 -> BM4000 -> M70 on another wall, and BL8000s on a third wall.

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

    The compact ones have always done much better than the standard bigger versions. Easy to see why as they are much more contemporary with modern designs.

    The use of metaphors should be avoided like the plague. They're like a red rag to a bull to me.

    Re: Radiograms on the up.

    Yes I have known one or two people to buy these, I could never bring myself to comment on them, or even acknowledge there existance lol! Car cassette mechanism that makes a factory fit ford model look decent, cheapest cd player if you can call it that and as for the record player well I would use it to play coasters and nothing else!

    No offense to your mum BTW!

     

    Olly.
