    Thanks

    Hi Rolf,


    that was brilliant. Just what was needed on a grey London day.

    Where is it located ? It would be worth a visit.

    Unbeleivable! Thank you Rolf, I trully enjoyed that . I'd love to see his art collection. Are any of the amps & speakers hooked up at all??? Is this his Personal Museum, is it just for him to entertain people in the trade and friends?

    Thanks again!
    Just Play Music.

    Very Impressive!

    I was glad to see that the collection is not limited to JBLs and McIntosh, while he seems to have most of the important pieces from both of them, he also has some additional fantastic equipment... and what a beautiful display.

    Well done. Thanks for sharing this Rolf.

    It is located in Oslo, and it is a private museum, not open to the public.

    Nothing is hooked up, and yes it's his personal museum. It is one of his hobbies, just like someone collecting stamps or coins.

    A "pod guy"? No. All just on display, but I was told everything is in perfect shape.

    You would not believe how many other products there is from JBL and a lot of other brands. I run out of memory on my camera, that is why there are no more picks. When I catches my breath I post the last ones I have.

    It seem like some pictures have been lost. I do not understand how.

    What I wanted to post was a Tanoy for corner placement and a early version of the KlipchHorn.

    In the time to come, when the time is right, I will try to get another appointment and take more exiting photos of this unique collection.

    PS. Erling is interessted in one more Paragon, so if anybody ... OK?

    Ouch! One of those Marantz amps must have arrived in Oslo via UPS; that corner is trashed! Saul would be pissed.

    I'm stunned....that's an amazing collection. It doesn't all look functional though. It would be cool if it were wired up like a vintage stereo store with a big switch console so you could listen to everything.

    Maybe it's on purpose though - people like us would never leave .
