After receiving a Beolink 1000 i now can easily say that this is the worst piece i've ever owned.
I can barely think of one good thing about this remote, and that is, that it's built well.
Using this remote is like a punishment of some sort (compared to the Beo4) and it's really awkward, does anybody actually like the BL1000??
I love it!
I agree, best remote I ever saw.
Nice build quality, nice feel, beautiful design, wonderful to use, shoot in any direction - even around corners, lots of functions...
Why are you so disappointed with it ?

I love all four of mine!

You walked right into that one. The Beolink 1000 is a favourite of many B&O fans. For worst remote, try the Beo1!
Fantastic remote - indestructible - also very logical once you have learned the commands.
My B&O Icons:
I have to admit the earlier models are highly awkward to use with menu based products. I never remember what is up/down and what is sideways...
But all is forgotten once you try to use a Beo4 in the dark for anything but the most common functions! 😁
I loved mine. It felt so 'good' to pick up and use. Remember also that this was at a time when remotes were just plastic junk. Some still are but better ones have come along.
I have very fond memories of it.
When it came out I bought a later B & O remote, can't remember the model though. It had a glass display and buttons on both sides. Hopeless! Thank goodness I still had the 1000 at that time.
🤒
I'd say ownership of the BL1000 through the 90's and later was probably a major part of why I'm still here now!
