Could do with a bit more detail on how the tv screen slots in. How stable will the screen support be on the motorised wall hinge version?

Had a similar problem with my BV 11 pictures posted to Beoworld some years ago, showing how to route the hidden cables from the wall to the hinge area.

A dealer had the nerve to use one picture suggesting it was his own installation. I can’t find it again……. presumably they’ve moved on from installing BV11’s.

Well done to all winners. I can’t believe how I managed to miss the draw, even after getting an email reminder.

1203 radial turntable. Mine’s from 1973 ish. Beefier looking arm than later models, but with SP14 it’s somehow very futuristic looking, even 50 years on.

Average price per tile £500? So that’s a £40K investment, and much of the sound well above head height (unless there’s a mezzanine, (from which the photo was taken?))

It would be interesting to hear just what has been installed and how effective it is.

I’m inclined to agree with Mr 10%. Look at a clothing retailers recent history for comparison. Brooks Bros were, at 200 years old, the oldest prestigious US tailor. They got into financial trouble and were bought out by an Italian gentleman who used high quality Italian fabrics but quietly moved manufacturing to China. There are several Savile Row tailors doing the same.

Tastes changed and the demand for suits collapsed. Stores closed. Stock was sold off. Last year you could get a £1500 Brooks Bros suit at Tkmaxx for £75.

Covid has wrecked many markets, including formal wear for the office. Is there a relevant comparison for B&O? Financial difficulties, Chinese manufacturing to reduce costs… Both Brooks and B&O have traded on long long established reputations, but you can only do that for so long. And as stated by 10%, there’s a terrible financial wave about to hit…. a wave that will kill all non essential purchases.
