This year Bang & Olufsen will be celebrating their 90th anniversary.
Does anybody still own products from previous collections?
I recall the old LX television range being manufactured in a limited edition Ebony cabinet. There was a unique numbered badge inlaid into the top of the cabinet. Each purchase was accompanied with a commemorative Wedgwood plate and a certificate of authentication.

White Beosystem 5500 produced in 1989 for the 65th Anniversary I believe!
Interesting idea for a thread though, there are plenty of interesting limited editions like this B&O have done over the years.

leosgonewild:But I think the white Beosystems was a bit more popular than the Pepsi H6's. Talk about disaster..
I've just bought a pair of those dirt cheap and my kids love them. If it gets them more into B&O I'm happy.
A great H6 buy if you can get them (at about half price.)
Not a disaster at all, just linked to the World Cup which meant they were perceived as a time-expired edition. The Pepsi logo is insignificantly small.
I expect, in the long run, that this particular version of the H6 will actually hold its value better than the standard editions.

I agree, they are a really great buy. You get super cans for a cheap price. And the blue colour is not that bad, it is just sad to see them be devalued with those low prices on eBay.
I would love to change my grey boesystem 5500 for a white one. Would be perfect with my Attyca and my white PS4.
Just bought a pair of Pepsi H6s on eBay, new for just over £100.
Expect these to hold their own for a while price wise and I get the enjoyment in the process.
