I give up - I really do! If I'm ever in the market for something that resembles part of a food processor I'll certainly give a closer look!

Please refer to my new thred - "Things you can do with £800 rather than buy an A6" !!

The above picture will make you throw-up Puncher.....

It's a hairdryer!

I think Beogreg's post was meant to wind you up Puncher, and it succeeded! Having said that, just look at the picture above and decide whether you would rather have the A6 or a hairdryer on a plastic pole.

I hate to use 🙂 or 😁 (first time in my life) so you have to guess if it's a joke or not each time I try to be funny (and I'm here for that).

As a B&O owner since 20 years I of course absolutely don't care that you can buy 5 Samsulg 65 " UHD curved tv's for the price of a V1.

I don't see the point a) of the Apple product discussions and Devialet ... b) of telling how many Rolexes I can have for the price of a Patek skymoon tourbillon.

Can't wait to see (blue) /ear the A6 it seems a good product from what we can read right now and it won't make you bankrupt.

So a great review and some people still aren't happy. I am also not too happy with the Apple references in every thread.  As far as I am concerned Apple has killed music and the Hi-Fi systems. I don't own any Apple products and I don't intend to. The reason I own B&O is because I don't want to do everything the majority does......there's nothing niche about Apple. The review gives 5 stars to the A6 for everything, be happy about. Such negativity.....its getting boring.

I love the A6, it's what B&O have been lacking in the range for sometime. A true bridge between Play & Core. I am pleased for B&O to have received 5 stars from What Hi-fi, maybe this will become the reference product in this price bracket?!

I really thought this would be a product much more appreciated by females, but like simonbeo my wife doesn't like it. And Lee's wife!

 

 

All that fabric and cushions it was a no brainier. I took my Beolit 15 to a do with hairdressers, and they all complained it was too girly, and not B&O enough[:\'(]

 

 

We can't win

Chris, my wife does like the A6 and having heard it was as good as expected she was interested to hear which colour we might chose when we buy one to celebrate the imminent remodel of the ground floor of our house! 

(She likes B&O and appreciates Beoplay too especially the quality and casual style of the V1 , but then she's not a hairdresser!)

😳My sincere apologies, I mistook you for the guy who always bangs on (sic) about Devialet on this board!

I was close to breaking last night, my flickhammer was on a hair-trigger!

 

Been gone too long. What do you do ... rest your head on the thing?

Devialet or A6?

My concern would be that a Devialet might squirt my Meerschaum out while hovering over it.

So this A6 thing ... kick off the slippers and have at it?
