Underrated B&O-features you really like...

I like the damped action on the volume wheel on the Beomaster 8000, compared with the undamped frequency wheel. Very necessary and very well thought through!

I also like the way you can get the time by pressing 'Status' on an MCP5000 without turning on the Beosystem. Very useful if you want to use the MCP as a bedside clock :)

Hi,

 If you are using a beo4 remote, press between the up and down volume button.

 Best regards,

I really like it on the BS9000, when the car moves from one position to another, it will do it slower if the glass door is open. And if you approach your hand as if you want to change a CD, the car will stop moving to avoid hitting you! Pure magic.

More on BS9000. Invite your friends. Put 6 cd's of your favorite music in it. Enable random function, dim lights and look at the eyes of your friends. Guaranteed in less than 20 seconds they will make an exclamation comment. It's just so accurate and fast when it works in random. Make sure you clean the way in which the car moves regularly, otherwise gets slower. 

 

Is the p-mute function in the list only available on later Beo4's mine doesn't seem to have that?

I love the fact that holding down the standby button turns everything off....

That is what I was going to put. Also the way the light stays on. Very clever.

Yes makes you wonder if that was theory or practical experience  " who turned that light off!...... crash there goes next months wages!"

Serene shares 'phonebook with Beocom 6000. Very handy for Andy.

I like the sound slowly fading out when I switch off my BV6.
