Show us your two passions! I think these two brands really are classics, and stand for quality and design. Any one out there a B&O fan?

Right on! I have been collecting B&O for 20 years, need more space in my house, at least with watches they take up less space!

Great that you have a B&O passion, but IMHO B&O appeals to the more 'lifestyle-oriented' consumer, similar to Nakamichi. From what I have seen on this forum, Rolex appeals in a somewhat different way to most people here.

I recently saw a post re. buying Patek's at Costco...one guy in a Patek forum was flabbergasted by this. IMHO you can sell Patek's beside 50 cent bulk cheese slices and the Patek's 'worth' would not be decreased.

Just IMHO...

Gotta love BO!

Sorry B&O!

Another quality product from Denmark!

Rolex & George Wright tube amplifiers

Rolex & Cycling

Denmark produces some VERY fine audio gear, Bo! Dynaudio, Gamut, and the now-defunct Electrocompaniet among them!

I love Bang and Olufsen, many of their products are so technologically advanced, whenever I go into their store, I'm always so impressed.

But I love Bose a lot too and have a 321 entertainment system in my home. So for me, its Rolex and Bose.

Bo,

Danish design, like B&O, are right up there with the great Italian designers like Pinafarina etc.

I have a Bose lifestyle entertainment system as well, great system but B&O just has that something special. I have a small collection of B&O items and that one in the picture is from the 1990's and if you were to step into a B&O store today you will see the exact unit unchanged cosmetically although the new ones have a hard drive for mp3's. Good design stands the test of time. Like the Rolex sub.
