Status – At BeoWorld HQ – ready for the Fabulous Festive Draw.
Prizes : All in front of me, beautifully wrapped, and ready to send anywhere on Planet Earth.
Prize Draw Starts : In just 30 minutes at 8pm UK Time...
It's only a quarter of an hour until I pour myself a glass of the bubbly stuff and hold it proudly aloft to signal the start of the 'BeoWorld Christmas 2019 Prize Draw'.
Yes, it's that festive time again - and how quickly has it come around?! So, put down whatever you're doing, put your loudest Christmas Jumper on and rub a mince pie on your head for good luck. If you can't find a mince pie, grab a pet, your significant other, or a garden implement - they all count. You don’t want to miss the draw do you? Yes – YOU !!
I'm sitting on my Christmas BeoThrone once more, waiting to leap up like an excited Reindeer at the front of Santa's sleigh and stylishly bring my finger down on the prize draw button, thus bestowing some Fabulous Prizes upon some Lucky Winners… BeoWorld.. far too generous I tell you every single Christmas!!
So – you’ve got 15 minutes to get those last minute jobs done… go, go, GO !!!
I'm starting to feel a little lonely here....
No matter!! Get the kettle on, crack open a beer, pour a glass of wine, make a snowball out of chewing gum and shredded paper and throw it at your boss, put some antlers on next door's dog and shout 'RUDOLPH!!' - startling their cat, then pull a Christmas Cracker without taking it out of the box using only your toes.. I don't know why I bother saying these things - nobody ever reads them.. Whatever.. the draw is imminent - hurry up !!
I’ve just drawn the names and matched them up to the Prizes – so could YOU be one of our lucky Christmas Draw Winners tonight?? Chances are, you are..
The Prize Draw Cometh...
Anyone fancy a lovely BeoWorld Prize? Your very own Lord Botty of Beoworldceistershire is here in your very own HQ and is ready to distribute a large pile of Prizes worldwide. It's that time again when you all think to yourselves 'How do they manage to do it?' whilst you look at the prizes being given away. Well, i've no idea - really. It's beyond my comprehension and it makes my circuits hot enough to set fire to a Christmas Pudding trying to work it out!
For £2.50 a Month, YOU can win any of these - not once, but FOUR times a year. You'll also be supporting the best site on the internet too !!
Back in a few moments - I'm just going to have a mince pie and a nip of brandy...
It's been several years since I could be here AS IT HAPPENS. Really looking forward to the draw - and the community spirit that goes along with it.

Okay Ladies and Gentlemen.. THE BeoWorld Christmas 2019 Prize Draw will now start, right here and now! Good to see everyone - just reading, or reading and contributing to the thread, and may the Lucky Christmas BeoForce be with you all - or at least ten of you.
And we're off....
10th Prize - Superbrands Book + B&O Mug
Yes indeed, it's the Superbrands Book - 2006/2007 Edition.. The one where the BV7 and BeoLab 5's were on the front cover and Bang & Olufsen were considered one of the worlds 'coolest' brands! We all know they're still cool, but just in case any of your friends forget, you can leave this on your coffee table to remind them! Whilst you're thumbing through the pages you may want a coffee or hot drink by your side, so you'll also need a Bone China Wedgewood Bang & Olufsen mug. So, we'll include one of these too! Not bad for the starter prize, eh!
Tonights first winner is..
Mr. C. van Heereveld (Premiumverum) from Groningen, Netherlands
Very nice too - well done and very Happy Reading!!
Ave verum et congratulationes de possessore istius libri recepto in prize draw priori ...
9th Prize - Your very own Bugatti.... Van
Well, a toy one anyway. In 9th this Christmas we have a very rare and desirable Model car in the form of a Bugatti Delivery Van in full B&O livery. Not quite sure if Peter and Svend authorised this outlandish expense or not, but here we are. A great little collectible and one which is worth quite a lot on the collectors market. Pride of place in your collection, or use a futuristic shrink-o-matic machine on yourself and drive it to work. Your choice if you win 9th this Christmas!
The winner is…
Mr. C. Kilian (charliekilian) from Omaha, USA
Jolly well done to you - What a lovely Prize. Servicing costs on these are thankfully quite modest by the way..
BV Harmony 65 / Eclipse 55 / BL 50 / 19 / 18 / BS 2 all brass
BV Horizon 48 / V1 40 / BL 17 / Beoplay S3 all black
V1 / BL 3 / BS Essence MKII / Beoplay A3 all white

That's a hip van on Omaha's square road net.
Congrats
8th Prize - An exclusive B&O Mini Maglite Torch
We've never seen one of these before, so when the chance arose to acquire one for the Prize Draw our eyes lit up.. or was it the torch. Anyway, here we have a genuine Bang & Olufsen Promotional co-branded Mini MagLite Torch! All in a lovely little Mini MagLite carry case for safe keeping. A highly practical and extremely rare little collectible for you to use and enjoy, or keep somewhere you want it to be seen and admired. One thing is for sure.. it'll brighten up your life!! All yours if you win 8th.
The Winner is...
Mr. J. Struiksma (Tignum) from Bolsward, Netherlands
What a great prize for the avid BeoCollector who ventures out and about in the dark quite a bit!!
7th Prize - A pair of Vintage 1971 Beovox 600 Bookshelf Speakers
Well... We just couldn't let these pass. They've had ONE owner since the early 1970's and were then px'd at an official B&O Dealer who had stored them for the last 25 years. The Dealer decided to trim down his classic B&O collection and BeoWorld jumped in with an offer on these little babies with the sole intention of one of our members becoming the new custodian. Obviously they are in amazing condition, sound superb for their size (a real 'analogue' warmth to them) and the wood is an absolute joy to look at! Pair these up with a BeoMaster 900 to make a real 'period' system, or enjoy them with a modern amp. Your choice if you win a Festive Seventh..
Mr E. Wortham (ewortham) from Missouri, USA
Could these be the start of a classic system? We hope so!

Not long, when you win ...
Sounds good! :)
6th Prize - A New/Sealed BeoPlay P2 - Black
As B&O Quote : Say goodbye, once and for all, to your smartphone's inferior speakers. Wherever you go, the super compact Beoplay P2 is ready to enhance your audio experience with surprisingly rich sound. It’s always on, always ready. The built-in microphone and powerful speaker make Beoplay P2 ideal for taking and making hands-free calls on your phone or computer. Use it in the office, your hotel room or anywhere you need to get up close and personal with the people you’re speaking with. Want one for Christmas? Oh go on then.. Here you go.
Mr G. Stehmann (liverust) from Haderslev, Denmark
Congratulations from all at BeoWorld. A great little prize..
If you don't like the choice between the blue and the red pill, this black pill is a nice remedy to any awkward silence.
Congratulations
5th Prize - A pair of New and Sealed BeoPlay E6 in Sand (not literally.. we mean the colour)
As B&O say.. Beoplay E6 offer rich sound with a very strong bass performance. You can easily tailor the sound to your own taste and preferences with the BeoPlay App on your smartphone. Beoplay E6 comes with a clever charging feature that lets you charge your earphones while you use them. And with up to 5 hours of active play, you never have to miss out on your music – wherever you go. If you win 5th this Christmas a pair in the beautiful 'Sand' colourway are all yours. Good Luck!
Mr C-G. Gustafsson (carly) from Bromölla, Sweden
Lovely prize - and very well done. Enjoy!
4th Prize - A Bang & Olufsen Tea & Coffee Set
Are the family coming round this Christmas? Do they want to drink their Tea's, Coffees and Hot Chocolates from the very finest mugs, cups and saucers available? If the answer is Yes, we have the solution! How about SIX original Dealer Issue Coffee Cups and Saucers. PLUS an additional SIX genuine Dealer Issue Wedgewood Coffee Mugs! Yes, everyone can admire your B&O whilst drinking from a cup or mug with B&O written on it, all whilst listening to you talking about your B&O. Bombard and convert... It's an advertising executives dream! All yours if you bag 4th this Christmas!!
Mr. F. Frank (castellomlqc) from Chambly, Canada
Jolly well done to you - Hot drinks will never be the same!!
Wow! Now I really am jealous of the tea & coffee set winner!
3rd Prize - A BeoLit 15 Bluetooth Speaker in Champagne
In Third we have a super-stylish 'Sound Box' in the form of a BeoLit 15 Bluetooth Speaker! Boxed, ex-demo and in great condition this incredible sounding unit has a jaw-dropping array of speakers behind the aluminium mesh... a big full range driver, two more passive drivers and three tweeters to be precise!! All this with up to 24 hours play on a single charge it's pretty impressive, too!
It has a USB socket, external 3.5mm input and of course a solid Bluetooth 4.2 connection. If you've never heard one of these in action - prepare to be impressed.. they really do sound five times larger than they actually are, and the awards it received upon launch were truly well deserved. All yours if you're lucky enough to bag the Bronze Medal this Christmas...
The winner is..
Mr S. Spanjaard (Fansastic) from Den Haag, Netherlands
An absolutely beautiful and superb sounding portable speaker - Brilliant, Well done!
A fantastic prize for fansastic ...
Congratulations, YES!
Second Prize and the jingle bells are certainly starting to jingle now...
2nd Prize - Pair of BeoLab 6000 Active Loudspeakers
We've always loved the BeoLab 6000 here at BeoWorld and we'll keep giving them away until we've convinced you all. A really underrated speaker which blends so well into any environment they don't actually get noticed! The sound which can come out of such a slender column of anodised aluminium is something to marvel at - and we think you should too!
So, we're giving away a beautiful pair of pre-owned but pristine BeoLab 6000's in the classic Aluminium with Black Covers. We'll give you either Euro or UK Power Cables as required - and we're sure that if you talk to Steve at Sounds Heavenly he might do a special discount on some new PowerLink Cables as it's Christmas!
The very lucky winner is..
Mr M. Dunn (MBD3) from Miami, USA
Very well done to you – enjoy your new Loudspeakers !!!
Amazing speakers - I'd love those too!
Peter the Biker:A fantastic prize for fansastic ... Congratulations, YES! Peter the biker
Congratulations to all the winner so far!
If MBD3 would like to send me a PM, I can sort out some Powerlink cables for his new speakers.
Kind regards, Steve.
Steve.

Time for a prize in England... !
It's First Prize Time this Christmas - and WOWZER !!! What a unique Prize we have for you!!!
1st Prize - It's 007's very own BeoGram 6500 - in the rare Limited Edition White!
Oh Yes... Oh Yes...and once again.. Oh Yess!! Guess what we sourced for our Christmas 2019 Prize Draw Winner?!!!
Here we have an absolutely beautiful BeoGram 6500 in the rare White colour scheme which was the personal record deck of Sir Roger Moore - aka James Bond !!!!! Sir Roger owned it from brand new up until he sadly passed away in 2017, whereupon it was left to his Wife in his will (who is actually Scandinavian and a well known Danish socialite).
She then placed it carefully into storage as Hi-Fi held no interest and eventually gifted it to a family friend. It was this family friend whom BeoWorld managed to purchase it from - and the rest, they say, is history!
So, here we have an amazing deck in it's own right - but with this provenance it's truly amazing! What a Prize!! The name's Winner. Lucky Winner.... You'll be shaken AND stirred if you win First Prize this Christmas!!
Would anyone care to know who Santa Claus has come to visit early?
Oh! Oh! Yes!
