Objective. But that's why I questioned the ?? as you yourself said it's only an opinion. ie. some people will think it's way overpriced, others will think it's very good value.

Acually, most of my non-B&O buying friends are very surprised by the cost of the BS8. Most of them think it's likely to be about £2000. When you tell them it was £890, they think it's good value (for a B&O product).

Working in radio and surrounded with top quality broadcast equipment, I actually think that the BS8 is way overpriced for what it is and that's why I havnt bought into it even though I really like the design of it.

Paul,

That statement seems rather contradictory. Are you suggesting that the BeoSound 8 is as good as top-quality broadcast equipment but too expensive or that given that they are the same technically, you can get broadcast gear more cheaply?

I'm not following your argument here.
