I would recommend wall mounting 100% as my preferred placement option. However I would make sure I had no visible cables, trunking going up the wall etc.

Also, I'd be mounting it on a stud wall or a wall where you can run the cables externally if it was me. Either that or chase the cable/s in and redecorate!

Basically, if you are wall mounting it, hide the cables or it will look scruffy!

Hi Lew,

What are you up to these days?

Nick

Hi Nick! Hope things are going well in Sheffield!

I am very well thanks - Working as a Sales Engineer for an automation component company now, and getting on really well so far!

I still swing by the shop occasionally, in fact I need to go and collect a com 2 I bought before Christmas! Still love my B&O although sadly still not in the market for any big purchases! Haha!

Good to hear that you're doing well!

Sheffield is booming, sold a pair of Lab5s as centre channel speakers the other day!!!

If you ever find yourself Sheffield way, pop in for a coffee and chat...

Cheers,

Nick

Ha! Amazing :-)

Next time I am passing Nick, I will definitely drop in!

I suppose I had better post a pic to get this back on topic...

Got BeoSound 8 wall mounted and table mounted in the store - prefer it table mounted myself, although it makes more of a statement on the wall!

Hi, 

Thought i would ignite an older thread with something i was going to ask.

Has anyone that has purchased a Beosound 8 wall mounted it yet?  If so, how did you find the process?

I have had my BS8 for a few weeks now and i'm loving it!  Michael Jackson yesterday sounded great. 

Hi Michael  glad you are loving your BS8! Its really grown on me and i love its design now - its quite iconic isnt it!!!   Have u tried the Djay app for your iphone or ipad yet?  its so much fun  proper djing!!!  Im thinking BS8 and lots of wild house parties that always get totally out of hand ;)

Hi Paul, Thanks for the reply.  Iconic yes and conical (lol, sorry dad's joke), but also reasonably priced.  I haven't tried the Djay app yet, i'll download it and give it a go and let you know.

I downloaded the B&O app, but i find that i'm not really listening to radio that much.  I don't mind talk back, but i think i have to invest some time in searching for a station for me.

I have found that my older ipod, a 5gen ipod classic isn't that compatible with it, but it plays the iphone4, latest nano with no dramas.  Plugs in easy with USB to my macbook.

And now i'm thinking whether i should wall mount it, but then it would lose it's portability.  I've moved it around the house quite easily.
