Nice video! Great to see his adoration for B&O

Great house. Beautiful stuff in it.

The B&O gear looks like it was designed to go there

Yes. Like they didn’t know what the Harmony should look like when not in use (the screen hidden behind the speakers). Now it just looked like a big black wall with some wood below.

One of the most beautiful houses I've seen on that channel.

Very good balance between shapes and colours, and lovely to see Beolab 90s and Harmony around, they fit in perfectly.

It's actually the first time I see a Beolab 90 in that colour, and after only seeing it on the B&O site and believing it was awful, I really can see it perfectly matches everything that's around it.

I like the fact that the was wall mounted a bit higher so that it’s also visible from the dining table!

And yes… dropdead gorgeous house!

Some people actually like it that way!

Is it me or are the 90’s the “regular” white ones with oak?

Does anybody know what the pair of cabinet-mounted control panels at 7:20 are?  It looks like early-2000s tech, with mono LCD displays and custom buttons.  But not B&O, not Crestron, not Lutron, not Honeywell nor Wirsbo/Uponor, etc. etc. ... ? ?

The only time I liked it left open was shown in Beo Talk #182 at 1:15:21, where the top & bottom of the wall-mounted Beolab 18's lined up with the Harmony screen edges when (permanently) open.

P.S.  When Razor House was for sale (by the second owner), you can see what looks like a BV10 (wall-mounted, way too high) and a couple BV14s on floor stands: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKQUiK73Llo .  Amazingly, there are no speakers anywhere -- and many ceilings are gloss lacquer, which makes even mud-in panel speakers visible.  (Maybe they are hidden otherwise -- not shown in video, there is a floor lift in one of the bedrooms that rises up with a BV and 2 BL6000s underneath.)  Watch at the end for that ugly 2-pipe TV bracket in the bar/wine room, which got reused for the Harmony!  Maybe it was originally a *lift* to raise the TV, to be seen from outside?  Its speakers might have been BL8002s, but look more like Def Tech "Mythos"!
