I think they are a great product. 

Nice photos Mark. I hope we can see more in-situ photos like this in future, rather than unboxing photos.

For what it is worth, I love my Beosound 8!

I've had mine since November 2010 and it ALWAYS gets compliments for style and sound from everyone who comes into my house.

Mine was bought specifically for my kitchen and it really makes a great focal point:

Ouch Mark, this is an awesome kitchen, very stylish!

What is the cover color of your BS8? Is it a DIY or a custom order?

Thanks people, it is really nice to receive compliments from people I know have style and taste! (Being a fellow B&O owner and all 😁)

The fret colour is a standard B&O colour, I had asked for white (The unit is white) but my B&O shop got me the violet instead as B&O has an issue with the very first white frets during production. I'm still owed the white set but I really like the violet, it suits the kitchen very well.

Problem with the white frets, for me, is that they look "dirty" as you can easily see the grey plastic mesh underneath. Even the yellow ones I bought look a bit grubby. I swapped them for the red frets, which are fine.

Ha Bonjour Edouard Ca vais?  I knew that you would love that kitchen!!!

Moxxey, I really loved the yellow of your speaker grilles.  I once had a chill out room in a house many years ago (the room that my B&O Century was bought for) and I had the walls papered in that yellow. It had windows all around and there was no way that you could be nothing but blissfully happy in that room!!! I very much miss that house :)

I seond that 🙂

I've just had a BS8 on a free demonstration loan from B&O Liverpool (and with thanks to Nick for the free home delivery and home demonstration).!

Result...... I bought it! Very impressed with the output. Just reconsidering whether the kitchen is going to be an ideal location for keeping those frets clean. Came with a free pair of A8 headphones...... Which are ideal for plugging into the iPad when it's not docked on the BS8.

Any downside? Yes. Wife listening to music too much when the iPad could otherwise be in use as a computer!
