For the past decade we take our Beosound 3 with us outside when the sun comes out and spend most of the day on the terrace. At least my wife and the kids does, I have to work sometimes..
Normally we use the M5 for music listening to TuneIn in the kitchen/livingroom. My wife takes the Essence Remote with her wherever she takes place and controls the volume whenever needed.
But now with the forthcoming month's to come where the sun starts to shine more, I want to replace the BS3 with a more modern version.
But which one would be a wisely choice? Ideally there should be some kind of P6 with wireless and some buttons for starting TuneIn and/or Music, apart from the volumebuttons. I have an AP outside, so reception of the wireless signal isn't a problem.
My wife likes all the stuff we have around the house, but mostly the only thing she does is hitting the M5 to start TuneIn. She "hates" it to use her phone or tablet to start music.
So, what would be a wise choice as successor for the BS3? Personally I find the BS1 a rather heavy one to take with me every time I go outside. Another thing would be that the sound from the BS1 isn't as good as the M5. A better choice would be the BS2, but this one is even more heavy and can't be used without a powercord.
A P6 is easy to handle but misses the wireless.
Any suggestions?
