BC Ouverture for me too.
I was a teenager and the BC O was on display at the local hi-fi store.
Modern, elegant, in another league compared to the other systems.
I had the green light from my mother, first time I saw her interest in a piece of technology!
Unsurprisingly I could not afford it but I was in search of a cd music system for my room and I saw the Century.
The Ouverture was so far from my reach that I didn’t dare to ask for the Century, I thought it would have been on the same price range, and B&O marketing approach had a bit of snobbery in my country.
Looking backwards if a salesman would have described features and price (the Century would have been the perfect fit for my room, better than an Ouverture), I’d have pulled the trigger for the Century instead of the Denon etc. separate hi-fi system.
TV sets didn’t get my interest, it was the time for friends, music, long summers...
Good memories. 🙂
