Shift, Phono?

You can see a tiny glow in the IR LEDs. I can too but I believe not all people can.

A digital camera is a perfect tool for checking IR LEDs and CD player lasers (don't ever look directly into one of these, it's bad for your eye and you won't see anything anyways).

I can see most of them faintly but Beo5 appears easily. Powerful beast, me thinks.

Well I have just suprised myself. Just took my BL1000 into a dark room and I too can see it with the naked eye.

This is an old thread resurrected because he is selling a rare piece of B&O shop equipment for being able to switch sources between lots of different speakers to allow comparsion demonstrations between speaker types

So the SHIFT+PHONO and then a Number allows the demonstrator to say "now we will listen to the second movement on the B&O xxxx" et cetera

I think once upon a time (in an old version of this forum) there was a picture of this wonderful gadget
