Agree! Supercool.
It seems that the smoked oak is the only option with the black cabinet.
Match that with a black new Beovision 14(?) with frets in smoked oak finish....

Duels:Is that smoked oak in the picture? Looks like the regular oak.
Hiort:It says smoked oak on the webpage
Those are niiiiice
White frets on those would make me think of Storm Troopers.
With the growth of ethical companies and a demand for it from a new type of customer, it would be great if B&O donated a percentage from every sale to a woodland trust or financially invest in a woodland etc for the wood that it uses. Ethical marketing is becoming so important now and creating a new type of buyer. I know of a lot of younger people that ask 'who does it benefit if I buy this?'. I think with that, we are seeing a more educated look into consumerism.
Not really a fan of the black ones. I much prefer my silver ones or the rose gold ones.

BeoLab 18's. Beolab 3's. A8. A9. A2. H7.
Duels:Your aluminium and oak 18s look fab skywalker. I have the same. But I have a friend whose place has grey oak floors and I suspect these new babies will look amazing in her pad.
Thank you. I really like the way the aluminum reflects the surrounding colours. The Black sadly wouldn't do this.
All the lights in the room are hue lights so I change the colour depending on what I am currently doing, like watching a movie or playing video games:

So, if by manufacturing their gear in China B&O could donate more to whatever righteous cause you prefer, how would you feel about Chinese manufacturing then?

I'm afraid I'm recovering from the BeoVirus.
Duels:What is your end wall made of?
About a foot thick concrete. All the walls are just a few have drywall over them presumably so people can paint and hang things. I got the place for the walls alone as I can play music or movies on my system at any hours of the night and you can't hear a peep on the other side.

Has anyone taken any photos of this thing? I bet the low-resolution picture on B&O website doesn't do the black version justice...
