Imagine if they had played a similar trick on us.

Listening to a pair of say 5200's with the F80 hidden away. Then removing the audio/comms cables in front of us and Bob then claiming that we were now listening to a 'wireless' connection - technically possible and at the time something that alot of us would have been expecting. Then the piste de resistance would be removing the power cables and walking off with the speakers laugh
