Bang & Olufsen <3

Heard their 23,000 BeoLab 5s at one of their own stores here in Ohio and holy mother....unreal, unrivaled. Only thing I've heard that comes remotely close is the Bowers & Wilkins 800 Diamond series.

Spent a good half hour in the Apple Store th other day and fell in love with the H6s. Stomped all over the other offerings, except for the Master & Dynamic MH 40s. Stunning cans, those. Still, I think H6 are the best out there right now, personally, and plan on getting a pair very soon!

I love Bang & Olufsen for sure and I won't buy another brand but it's an expensive hobby....

Jep the Beolab 5 does cost a lot of money but the sound what you get from the speakers is mind-blowing and of course the design!

My parents are also in love with Bang & Olufsen and they gave me that ''virus''

I have had the H6 too but sold them because they were a little bit to big to take them daily with me so I bought the BeoPlay H3. The sound quality of those are also amazing for such little earphones!! Just what you expect from Bang & Olufsen. The H6 are even better than the H3 and I loved them!!! It's really a shame that I've sold them.. You certainly should get them!!

Right on!

Also, are you sure you want to go with the BeoPlay A8? I thought it was discontinued AND, B&O are coming out with its successor which is BlueTooth and looks incredible. They're also coming out with another speaker that is a more compact version.

I'd def go for those over the admittedly gorgeous A8!

Just a heads up!

Hahaha I'm not that sure to go for the A8 but what you already said is that it's looking gorgeous! I doubt about buying the A8/A6 or S8, but the S8 is a total other product from BeoPlay than the A8 and A6. That's right they've already introduced the S3 since a few weeks and that's a small compact but stunning looking speaker but I haven't heard them yet.

I am going for an abroad internship to Barcelona next month for 6 months and I am planning already to look there for the A8/A6 and S3 and maybe buy one of them, but with B&O you never know because there is a possibility that they will introduce new BeoPlay products in the next months.

I like the wallpaper! Do you have a link to it?

Thank you but it is not wallpaper. It is cedar (I live in a log house).

Edit: Lol I just realized you were probably talking about the wallpaper on my computer.. My bad. I'm not sure what it's called.

Me and my Setup (New Super 8 Camera)

Hello,

Nothing much has changed, I just got another camera for my collection A Sankyo Sound XL-40S Super 8 camera, came with Microphone and instructions, overall fantastic condition.

I have a new telephone arriving next week a 1920s GPO 150 Candlestick. This is a phone i've always wanted in my collection, but they have always been slightly out of budget at about £300-£400. Finally thought i'd treat myself though.

Thanks,

This is my setup! Today I was cleaning the workspace a bit and take some pictures to share. I'm a commercial photographer specializing in food and beverage. The setup is a iMac 2013 Core i7 3.5Ghz - 256gb SSD - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M 4GB GPU - 32GB 1867 MHz DDR3 RAM, the Macbook Pro is the 2013 Retina Core i7 2Ghz - 256GB SSD - Intel Iris Pro - 8Gb RAM (base model), the iPad Air 2 and iPhone 6 both are 64Gb. At the back of the iMac I have a 120Gb scratch disk SSD, a Lacie Rugged Thunderbolt and a 120Gb SSD for live working files. The table is a DIY one with a Ikea Galant frame and legs. Not shown is a Macbook Air 11" 2012(i7-8GB-256GB), Apple Airport Extreme AC, and a Apple Hackintosh OS X Server which serves files with few terabytes and some other networking services for the business. Hope you guys enjoy it!!
