Trip to Copenhagen

16 replies
Lots of great recommendations - wish we had them when we there after the Struer trip.

We parked the car in the hotel - and did not touch it for four days. Wish we had stayed at the hotel from which I stole my avatar :-)

One word of warning - watch out for the religious holiday schedule - we found the city was a ghost town on the Sunday and Monday - I suspect lots of locals head out of town.

More recommendations later ....

While it wasn't in DK, I had a very similar experience. While in Berlin in 09, I found myself in a deserted city and no idea why... I had that feeling of the last man on Earth! 

Cars parked everywhere, snowed in, no tracks... Looked like no one had been there in days! Very odd. 😕

Location: San Francisco

I'm an automotive audio and acoustic engineer. I design loudspeakers and full sound systems for new automobiles. I also dabble with studio, consumer and pro audio projects from time to time.

Thanks all for the tips!

Sorry for my late reply, I thought your answers would be in my mailbox, but I have to read it here.

Superb!

Greetings from Belgian Benjamin :-)

Check out the 2nd hand B&O store on "Gammel Kongevej" : http://www.bbuy.dk/
If you want to buy some second hand gear while in DK, check out www.dba.dk (ebay affiliate), but you will probably need a car for that. Most of us Danes do speak English, so an email or SMS will break the ice.

Btw Gammel Kongevej is great for a walk and some shopping and cafés too.

Cheers from sunny Copenhagen,

Until recently shops weren't allowed to be open on sundays;)

If you are looking for a B&O related deal in Copenhagen, I have an unused Atlona HDMI expander, and a used Beolink Passive, I need neither.

I live in a new area just outside downtown called Ørestad, you're welcome to pay me a visit, buying or not;)
