Just this week I picked up an very nice Avant 32 VCR, silver  for Β£130UK - this including a mint  Beo4 (dvd version), a silver DVD1 and shelf, and some STB brackets to hang a sky box on behind the TV.

It is heading for a second room (kids use mainly) to replace a 28Avant DVD that has an impending tube failure, I think.  Faint lines visible behind the picture on darker images, runing horizontally across the screen in a sort of stretched S shape....(may be called scan lines, seems to ring a bell, and I think that is the precurser to a failed tube ) so grabbed this avant off fleabay - only 5 miles away so easy to collect.

Any tips about mending the 28DVD apreciated though....is it an adjustment or is the tube about to die ??

 

 

 

BV8 is my latest purchase.

I keep thinking about a BeoTime but then i think 3 alarms is enough haha. 

Seriously, I'm waiting to find out what's next.  I think i want a BeoSound 5 encore.  I don't care that it may be superflous, i just want one ;-) I may be moving soon so, something to treat myself lol.

 

Last buy was a white BV8-32 for my bedroom. I do like the design, sound and picture. And of course that it is fully integrated into my blink system.

And finally it is here :)

I get my Beosystem 7000 in white color. There are only the Beomaster and the Beogram CD as I do not have anymore tape and never had phonogram... :)

I just spent my evening removing parts and cleaning. It was long but finally I just use soft sheet of microfiber cleaner and soap + hot water. the results are great (even in the ventilation grilles... too much time consuming). So here are some pictures. I also had the pictures of my Beolink 1000 in white, to match the color of the Beosystem... This one gives me hard time to collect (and 130Β£), but it was worth it as it is in almost perfect condition. I did not include the Beolink 5000 & 7000, but I also owned them. I plan to use this setup with a pair of white Beovox CX50 that I clean and possess new white clothes (in the original packaging ;) ).

So here are the pictures!

And under the Beosystem 7000, you can have a look at my new NAS... a beast!

Have just picked up a mint Beolab 2000, not relising it was masterlink! SO.

What the best way to connect this to our Beovision 7-40 mk3 in an adjacent room? Is their a radio/IR Masterlink or is it yet more cables?

Thanks, and even though it doesn't work and i have no clue to connect it, i'm sure i'll love it😳

I just bought the new Earset 3i, very impressed with the quality of the materials and the sound. I made a comparision between the 3i and the Apple headphones, not the ones that come with the iPod/iPhone but the ones in-ear which are supposedly better with better bass etc. Well it was as if I were comparing a Ferrari with a Yugo, no kidding. The 3is are really, really good specially in the vocals and mids, bass is not that bad either, but the clarity and separation is amazing. I must say that I had never owned a pair of A8s so for me was a whole new experience.

Also, a couple of month earlier We bought a pair of Beocom 5 and we are also very happy with them. Design and performance wise it is an excellent phone. They even have a basic integration with the rest of the B&O video and sound equipment. Awesome.
