Another thing I need to mention is, How many other forums give away great prizes?? So lets chin up and be positive! 

 

I know for one I have met a few really nice people from the forum! Tony is to name one of them, he even offered to help me with repairing my penta foams and would be willing to come out of his way (from France) to collect!  Tell me that isn't a nice guy! Nigel (h1npw)who lives near me (nottingham) has offered to take and collect some bits for repair, the forum has loads of really great people! So lets Keep it Great! Nigel if you read this I need to get you a beer at some point for the advice given!

 

cheers Nick 

 

 

Agree wholeheartedly! The two chaps you mention are both fine fellows and I'm sure lots of other members can name similar (if not longer) lists of equally helpful people, all of who were complete strangers before meeting on Beoworld!

How much better can a forum be??

I think we need to remember the positive reasons we are here!

If people spent as much time working on improving their financial fortunes as they do griping about how expensive B&O products are they'd be standing at my desk shaking stacks of $100 bills out of a top hat while their man-servant points to the products they want.

Trip I just have to tell you that you are the top reason for me visiting this forum, I just love your posts.

I agree with your point with this thread, it is starting to get a bit to much of the "B&O bashing" 

Speaking for my self, I am so excited about my new BeoSound 8, great sound for a even greater retail price. 

I´m also excited but B&O:s leatest offer(don´t now if it´s only valid in Scandinavia?) Buy a BeoVision 7 40 with speaker and get the Blu-ray and motorized stand for free. Great value and I will upgrade from my BV 8 32.

Looking back at 2010 I think B&O have presented some great products. BeoSound 8, and the BeoVision 10 32 & 46 the BeoLab 11.

Really looking forward to 2011.

The juices are flowing!!!

Puncher, I think you and I agreeing is like crossing the streams in Ghostbusters. Only in extreme circumstances should it be attempted!

Lee, the forum itself is great. You're absolutely right about the effect anonymity has on our online behavior. I imagine that very few people are fully represented in their dealings here as they are in real life. It's that awareness that hopefully makes us more conscientious participants. I can be (and generally am) a mildly aggressive smart-ass, but I hope that when I do take the time to post it's adding something, even if it's the same something I've been adding and adding and adding! If you have something to criticize about our products, don't just toss a brick or take a dump and run away. Argue your point in such a way that hard-headed cool-aid gulpers like me pause and say, "well, he's got a point."

Let's hope the Encore is all I'm expecting then!😂

Dear Kokomo - you are not a fraud!

Those of us who own vintage and veteran B&O kits provide a valuable service of advice and guidance to the next generation who choose to enter the brand by investing via eBay.

We are also good PR because we are the living proof of the enduring value of, and pleasure from, the brand.

I understand your sweet regret - I feel it myself at times - but then I sit back and listen to some music and say "it was and still is worth it)".

and Dear Peter, I understand the technical issues, I was having a dig at myself as much as expressing a sense of lost opportunity and time.

now that looks a lovely brew, much nicer than the "arrogant ***" I had last year in NYC 😂

can you arrange for it to be served at this WEDTHRED's pub ?

edit: hmm the forum just auto-censored me!

So I am resorting to an image ... 'cause I was not profaning anyone in particular ... and also having seen their range of T-shirts I think I know what I want as a birthday present from my sons 😂 😂 😂
