Belive me I do... They _start_ at 15400 euros.

No, i havent got one of those, that would put an end to the "understanding" part of my womans character. Im walking on he border already, but she loves the equipment too cause:

1 it works
2 she knows how to operate it (most important)
3 all wires are buildt into the walls (they love that)
4 the TV, speakers and soundsystem looks very good. (fashion...cool they think :D)
5 She has no idea what it has cost me/us

Jeeeeeeebus!! 15K for a TV???

You just make sure she never EVER finds out about #5. If she's anywhere like my ex-wife, I give you 7 days to run to the farthest(sp?) island you can find and hide there!

A wimin that knows how to use a remote (see #2) is dangerous, VERY Dangerous!!!

RUN FOR THE HILLS!!!

RUN AWAY FROM THE HILLS!!!

I have covered my tracks pretty well. All paperwork is in my bank box, and when we go to our regular B&O dealer he knows very well that when we dicuss prices he  must say it costs 50 when it does cost 100. The system has  worked well and I have usually gotten the go ahead from my missus. :)

Oh.. and I have always payed him i cash when I return to finalise the deal and make arrangements for delivery.

Hi Nilsen

This is your wife Briget. I created the hider nick "Habu" in order to post here in this group and keep an eye on you.

Finally my efforts have paid off.

When you get home tonight you have some explaining to do.

P.S buy a crowbar on the way home. I have some wireing to rip out.

B&O owner here, both a 28" TV screen (not Plasma or LCD, plain ol' TV) and a Century Soundsystem (gifts from grateful companies).

Sliding door on the soundsystem broke some 1 year ago. Repairing it was expensive beyond belief.

The TV power unit also went poof some 3 years ago. Repair was expensive, and I can say beyond any doubt that it just isn't worth it.

Form factor is ok, but it is WAY overpriced for what it is.
