Chrisrain;

1. Yes. Connection cable between Beoport, PC, and BS 3200. All lines are hidden.

2. Chris above, details the connection configuration very well with AE & BS 3200.

3. Re: North America: It works there with B&O EU systems. I have 3 ML Beoports set-up ( Suisse, US, Brasil ) using 220-240v equipment, including ML speakers. The US system works well using mains converters for 110 down conversion. 5 years now I believe.

I should think you might find some bargains in the US with the current exchange.

Again, thank you very much to all of you: very useful and you guys are very patient and helpful.

 Thanks again.

Christine

Simple and very cost effective solution:-

Purchase FM transmitter which transmits on the 88 - 108 FM band (€20).

Connect to PC.

Tune B&O radio tuner (and other radios around the house) to appropriate transmitting frequency.

Result - Internet radio  around the house and outside if required! 

Kokomo, 

Maybe in some countries around the globe, using a FM transmitter for personal use would be legal. But in most European countries, if not all this is highly illegal. Even so with low transmitting power.

Are you sure Chris?
ipods can be bought in the UK with a transmitter so you can tune your car radio to receive the signal. Both my sons have them.

Chris is correct, but they made this legal in the UK a while ago. I remember when I got my iTrip along with my iPod Mini (when they first came out). I had to have it imported from the US as they were illegal in the UK at the time!

As far as FM transmitters go - I really wouldn't. The solution offers no control in rooms outside of the one the computer is placed in, and the sound quality is absolutely hideous - even at short distance.

Brainstorming along this line there are some possibilities that might be available with Bluetooth.

I have a MACBOOK w/ XP + Bluetooth downstairs for work, and a newer PC with Bluetooth upstairs. I notice that with the new version, Bluetooth stereo is available, and that both computers at least recognize each other.

Both units can send and receive, WILAN and BT. It might be a bit involved, but worth a try
