BeoSound 5/ BeoMaster5 - New Software & Ripping Station available

30 replies

I'm very sympathetic to a finely tuned sense of aesthetics (where would B&O be without them?), but if you look at the thickness of the ripper it would hardly change the proportion. When we first saw the unit we had been sitting in the room for almost a half hour while it was sitting there and no one noticed it until it was pointed out. Check it out at your dealer and see what you think. I'm sure we'll be posting some pics as we install them in the shops.

Just not sure I like the looks of it behind the Beosound 5. I have my 5 setting on a cabinet and like the way
it looks with the space between the screen of the 5 and the top of the cabinet.

 

 

Viewed from a position similar to the one you took your picture you will not be able to see it ...

Thanks, both Trip and Vienna.

Does it have to be physically mounted on the Beosound 5 ...

That's the idea - and the supplied cables are very short.

I cringe at the though of re-doing the wiring in the mount and twisting the BeoSound 5 back on correctly. Remember how we had to follow that convoluted wiring diagram exactly to get the wires to fit?!

BTW, Razlaw, you have a beautiful setup.

Thanks!  And I agree with you about the covoluted wiring diagram.

Do I understant it correct:

You plugged an external USB-Drive into the Beomaster and with this new softwareupate you can simply rip into WMA losless with the Beomaster 5??

 

Yes 😕

GREAT! Thank you!

 

I will try to post a picture of the mounted device, but impossible to add image via ipad 

 

It fits good, even placed on a cabinet.
