You probably remember that this production from the local (TV-MidtVest) tv station in Denmark was discussed a while ago in a thread on Beoworld.

In part 9 we have now (almost) reached today!

Even if a lot of the Beoworlders do not understand the main spoken danish language, It should be nice - for everyone interested in modern B&O products - to see how things are done in the factory in the Czech Rep.

The conversation with the czech employees is in english!    So go for it!

You may not understand it, but It is indeed interesting to hear the two former CEO's (Torben Ballegaard and Anders Knutzen) talk about B&O. Even if they haven't been in charge of he company for years now, they tend to say 'we', when they speak of B&O Smile

Part 10 is scheduled for next friday (feb. 20).

Interesting despite my lack of Danish . A question ,perhaps caused by this ; what frames does the tonmoister have in his eyeglasses?

Mille, very interesting,. Thank you for that link. I downloaded the docu for my collection.

Especially the part with Geoff Martin, being myself a former cinema operator I completely understand his motion about the relationship of sound and picture.

Do you have links to the previous parts?

Simonbeo:
what frames does the tonmoister have in his eyeglasses

This is the strangest question I have been asked on BeoWorld.

It is, however, the easiest to answer.

My glasses are Ray Ban rb6108. Purchased because they were on sale the day I walked into the store.

Thanks for asking! As a result of this, I'm putting "fashion icon" on my CV to use as ammunition the next time I'm in a fight with a designer. :-)

Cheers

Jakob Jensen looks very healthy ! Yes - thumbs up Congratulations for Him !

 

I don't understand why Bang & Olufsen don't use allways his talent.

What a pity ! Sad

 

Jacob Jensen designed masterpieces products for B&O.

... Just remember the phrase 'fashion-forward' if they ask you why you're wearing a female style.  rb6108   Wink

Have can you tell the difference of a female and a male frame for eyeglasses Confused

Other than looking in the description from the manufacturer.

Yes, as a trainer for Luxottica I can confirm that this style, now retired, was originally classed for female. But I too own the brown color version, which looks great.

Frame gender determination is in the eye of the beholder.

Well well well... it seems I've been "outed". However, I agree with MM - the obviousness of the gender-specific-ness of my glasses is roughly equal to the amount I care.

This intentional apathy is completely in line with my (and my wife's) support for gender-non-specificity in marketing for children's toys as well.

However, I fear that this thread, whilst entertaining, has strayed away from anything B&O-ish. So, I'll stop talking about my fashion choices and stick to answering technical questions about loudspeakers from now on. Lesson learned. Sorry moderators. 

P.S. I'm keeping my glasses. :-)

wise decision

I do apologise for causing the thread to stray.

And on second thoughts I won't question the gender specific issues of fellow designer Mr Jensen's hair style length.

My wife and I have been serious Lego collectors for quite a while now. Please don't get me started on my dislike for Lego Friends. Angry
