In one room I have far too much stuff, some of it set up to use and some there while other parts of the house are sorted out. I was thinking all this after I'd moved some stuff out of the room to sort a bedroom out!

This is off the top of my head as well, so apologies etc. I've also not included options like motorised stands etc.

BeoVision 7-40 Mark 1 + 7-2

Avant 32" VHS

MX6000

Beosound 9000 Mark 3

Beosystem 5500, stack * 4 + MCP

Beosystem 2400-2, radio + tape + deck

Beomaster 2600

Beolab 4000

CX100

CX50 * 2

RL45

S80.2

Beovox 1000

Attyca 1

Attyca 2 * 2

3 Attycas in one room! I must be mad!!!

Now I'm also worried if people are thinking I'm showing off a bit.............. [:'(]

I sincerely hope Dillen (Martin) picks up on this thread and posts a pic of his BM1000 collection (as he did years ago)...

Not to call him out... but the pic will make your jaw drop!

Well, it all looks perfectly normal to me.  😂

I don't have a photo of my BM1000 collection as such. I've collected B&O
since the mid-70's, mainly their audio stuff, and it just happens the Beomaster
1000 was made in so many different versions and sub-revisions that collecting
them all will be next to impossible, especially if taking different woodsorts
into consideration as well. One version alone has (at least) 35 sub-revisions.
I own close to 100 or so BM1000's, not all different unfortunately, and my
collection is far from complete.
The majority of my collection is in large storage boxes, parked at friends
and family members with room(s) to spare - not a lot to photograph there -
and a few things are in bubble-wrap plastics on shelves like in these photos.
The BM1000's are not even collected the same place but there are some here.

So I take it that you don't listen to them daily, do you? 😂

I took a quick (mental) count and it seems I have about 50 items, speaker pairs counted as one... not all in the same place though, they wouldn't fit here 😮
