@Evan Your 'cubical' at work looks utterly baffling! A full-on hifi in an office cubical? How can that even be?!?! (Looks for big smiling emoji)

A most stunning office set-up all the same, bravo!

Hey Pepps - Thanks! I'm very lucky to work in a place that encourages such things. Not visible in the photos is the 8 subwoofer hiding under the desk haha! If you ever wondered what a desk looks like at a major audio hardware ODM, this should answer it! My colleagues and I work for Tymphany and there are some mega audio hardware engineers (myself included) that are hard at work here. There are a few of us with complete audio systems at our desks. The main function of the mixer is to share tunes between my nearest colleagues (to and from) depending on who wants to DJ on a given day.

I'm an automotive audio and acoustic engineer. I design loudspeakers and full sound systems for new automobiles. I also dabble with studio, consumer and pro audio projects from time to time.

@beohuman The stereo image from your desk must be exhilarating! Absolutely stunning to behold. Although, at the risk of being a little cheeky here, tack those cables to the skirting and paint them in dear fellow :)

I read on the Interweb that analogue is better than digital, so I decided to try it out for myself and make up my own mind.

My latest acquisition is a Beocord 506K, combination wire recorder and 78 RPM record player with built-in loudspeaker and integrated carrying handle. "Flexible living" 1950's style. There are connectors on the side for an optional external loudspeaker and a radio input.

As soon as I can get my hands on a compatible power cable, I'll put on a pair of rubber gloves, plug it into an isolation transformer and see how much smoke gets released. Or maybe I should have a look inside first... Maybe someone already let the smoke out.

Side note: If anyone else has one of these and is thinking of digging around inside, note the following: "Two UL41 tubes (push pull AF output) are located under the asbestos cover on the left."

PLEASE READ before sending me a Personal Message.

If you have questions about or problems with B&O equipment, these should be directed through your dealer and/or B&O's Customer Service department.

I cannot be a "short circuit", bypassing these communication channels.

Thanks

B&O at work. With some Ikea, Eames and Dell in the home office mix. I gave this BC6-26 a little TLC with speakerring repair, new fret cloth and a silent fan. Now I can use it as a monitor! Nice when playing a video! Need to tidy up the cabling now.

Can't compete with matador for stunning scenery and location, but I just got hold of this to solve my lack of FM radio in the living room:



And added the ubiquitous AE to bring it into the 20th century ?
