well as you may know from another thread I have acquired a BV8-40 to join my BV8-32

so while I don't have as nice a set-up as elms I thought I would show the baby that arrived almost 3 years ago:

Thanks :-)

As you can infer from the thumbnails, as a family we are into two ends of the spectrum - tear jerkers  and Marvel action movies 😂

The slight irony in the above, is that the middle picture, the BV8-40, was playing "The Pirates of Silicon Valley" and is showing a young Bill Gates (actor of course!)

EDIT ADDITION (why oh why do some of my sentences get obliterated when I add a picture ???)

And I was very interested that in the Beoplay TV invitation I received there were other mini-ads including this one reproduce below, which on the BV10 micro-site has the title "Growing the Apple seed" !!!!!

I'm flattered, but to be quite honest, the setup you have is nothing to laugh at! It may not appear as flashy, but BV 8s are exceptionally nice! And not one but two! I believe I have something to aspire to. 🤒 Great setup

I have the same TV as elms, but Ed, i think it's reminiscent of the BV8 - a tv on a soundstage.  I love the 32 BV8 and it's good to see you now have more BV goodness spread throughout the house.  

What's that interface you used with Diana Krall with the picture of the BV8 32 in white?

Mike, that would be LinkPlayer version 1 😁

I bought a Beocord 5000 type 4705 for £10 a month's time ago. Good cosmetical condition, but the perspex lid is a bit scratched. It lit up when I tested it back then, but couldn't get a cassette to play in it as the belts would just squeal. 

Tested it again because I was bored, and guess what; it worked after some exercising! It had not been used for approximately fifteen years.

Yet another pic of parts of my setup..

Beo 4 pimped with Gold!

my Beosystem 5500 and Redline 60.2 speakers, the turntable has MMC4 stylus, but I need to replace it soon, maybe a MMC2, also my CD player is the CD50 ( upside down for discs to play) , have had this system for over 20 years, and only the CD player has been in for repair.
