Beosound 5 poll anyone?

44 replies
Do you think we ought to run a BS5 poll to judge whether we think we're going to buy, ignore or wait now we've seen the launch specs and images?

I will definitively not buy BS5. At least at the beginning not as there will be very soon I think a lot of changes which will be shown with first usage and must be corrected.

As I habe BS9000 I will buy a ne iMac with 1 tera of HD space and BeoPort, this is all I need. But when BS5 one day streams also video formats such as avi where I can load folms directly from PC into BeoMaster5 and watch films then on TV then I will buy BS5 for sure. I think 500 GB of HD space will then be upgradable to more space.

Tough one, me personally I would wait and see what happens to BS5 in a year or two and see what developments or rather improvements are made and how the market changes and how relative BS5 is then.

Lab 5s still remain my priority and I would rather save for them over BS5 but having said that.. never say never....

 

What I would like to buy is BV9 one day as replacement for BV7 32", so perhaps then I would buy BS5 if it will have a video streaming possibility.

I'm with mobeyone on this, Lab5s are a priority in my book now, I may not have them for another 10 years, but I know I will one day. Until then, I'll enjoy my BS9K, BV8 combination (and maybe an appleTV in there for good measure).

I can set up a poll easily but would suggest a little hands on at your dealer before jumping to any immediate decision one way or another!
