This was an odd BS9000

I don't know, one way or another it looks quite...hmmmm, good!

There must be one someday on this Ebay planet who's willing to pay that amount of money.

Well perhaps =). I think that they at least could have used the correct font. It is not so hard to get. Now it has the wrong font on the aluminium plate.

Interesting design but I think it is a bit strange anyway :). 

Didn't noticed that but I guess you're right about the font?

Actually would look good in my place.... Not that I could ever afford it! ... or even have a use for it.

Would love to see more complete photos of it.

Right, I was missing that (picture of the whole unit). I wonder why? 🤔

Maybe an Idea for you Leslie when you get to the point of BS9000 refurbs ?

They seem to have an all black version as well.

BYW, Love all your picture documented posts.

 

What a load of Jackson Pollocks...  

Why replace the laser in a 219***** serial BS9000 for a start, then what's all this about fitting a new "optical fibre" ? - and worse still... since when did Bang & Olufsen make a Type 2672 "Mk4" ??!!!

I'm all for customising. Yep, I'm guilty of it - plenty of times, but there's popping a cherry on top and there's squirting ten cans of UHT cream with five tubs of hundreds and thousands and nine flakes, with sparklers.

...over the top.... and the price is a joke.  I'm surprised at B&O Yarm for putting their name against this if I'm honest, but knowing the owners they will no doubt have a good and valid reason.

I think I just heard Jackson Pollock turn over in his grave..

Just a matter of taste!

@cooldude, I have 2 BS9000 and one of them is probably going to be "restored".
