The Bang & Olufsen Beosound 24ct gold & Diamond Edition is world’s most expensive music center for $1.8 million

Adding on to his linkof ‘’ is the latest Bang & Olufsen Beosound 24ct gold & Diamond Edition. Exclusively designed by Stuart Hughes, this bespoke system is crowned as the most expensive music center and the link ($1,850,000) price tag certainly justifies it. Shaped out of 32 kilograms of solid 24ct gold, the system is also decked with 70 diamonds of 0.75 carat along with Aventurine and Topaz gemstones. The whole Beosound system along with speakers is plastered with handmade solid gold veneer. Only five such units will be made and make sure that you place your order much in advance as it takes about seven months to put up the Bang & Olufsen Beosound 24ct gold & Diamond Edition. Golden melodies doled out by this gold and diamond music system will certainly be a treat for audiophiles. For once listeners can also enjoy the blinged visual extravagance too!

Actually that brings up a good point!

Looking at the pics again -the diamonds consume the areas for the pyramidal sensors??? I assume they actually tested the "refurbished" 9000's?

i don't understand why the chose  the average beolab 6000 for that amount of money (ok easy goldplate...not a valid reason😳)

p.s: the pictures are horribly photoshopped

They are hideous, but I'm sure there are equally hideous locations where they will fit just brilliantly (pardon the pun)...

Interesting how you can take 3 very desirable products (B&O, Diamonds & Gold) & turn them into something so incredibly tasteless. I'll wait down at our local tip for when the buyers of this rubbish get bored & decide to sling it.
