The first store to sell the complete Bang & Olufsen (and the B&O Play) collection online:
http://bang-olufsen-frederikshavn.dk/
Seems that more are coming soon.
Is that a good idea?

with a decreasing physical retail arm yes it makes sense, but would a B&O virgin understand what they are purchasing I doubt it....

How true. 'Just found out that the NY metropolitan area recently lost another store - the one in Greenwich, CT. No wonder we haven't heard from TripEnglish in a while - that was his store. That marks the 3rd store to vanish in the past year - we're down to 4. Sure, increasing retail venues (e.g. Best Buy's Magnolia stores, Design within Reach) opens up new distribution channels but it certainly doesn't help the existing B&O stores. Literally right next door to one of the B&O stores here in NYC is a Design within Reach store. Both of them stock/sell BeoPlay!
" No wonder we haven't heard from TripEnglish in a while"If true, that's a dreadful shame.
If true, that's a dreadful shame.
If I'm not mistaken he was also involved in the operation of the Boston store. Not sure if that's still the case.
He always struck me as rather rude and arrogant , I doubt bno will mourn his passing.

Well we all have our faults, and most probably have families to feed, so I wish him well.

While TRIP and I never really saw eye to eye, I'm sad to hear he has lost his store.
He was pretty confident over the years though that "we" the normal guys had nothing to do with B&O's success. Perhaps we had with his?
