The BeoPlay V1 Havana limited edition is on sale at B&O's Liverpool outlet store at £999 including the Beo4.

I would have jumped at this bargain but I really am trying hard to keep the virus under control!

I've already inherited my grannies 1970's tea trolley, so I'm out.

It says it all really that a brand new V1 can't even be sold at this sort of price, where as a 10 year old David Lewis designed Beovision 5 are snapped up for a not to dissimilar price Embarrassed

Beosound Stage, Beovision 8-40, Beolit 20, Beosound Explore.

that is a bargain but undermines their pricing policy somewhat. Maybe offering it as a smoking sweetener if you bought x & y could have been smarter move.

we tend to forget there is more to design than designing.

I wouldn't even have it for free, it hurts my eyes. A monstrosity compared to our Beovision 1.

It's not just a V1 . It's an awful version of it !

having had ours installed on the wall by the dealer I don't know , but I suspect with that saving you could dismantle it and get it powder coated in white like a proper one .

Sorry guys - I like it!

 

But that does not mean that I would want to buy it.

I like unusual colors, so it looks fine to me.
