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😳

You have to connect it using Masterlink. That´s the only way.

You will only be able to listen to the TV sound, obviously, since you do not have any Audio master.

I was under the impression that you could use the Beovision 7/Beolab 2000 as a remote CD player without requiring an audio master?

Yep, that works. Forgot the CD player 😳. Sorry.

Still have to have the Masterlink cable.

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.

I had birthday this Tuesday, and my son (now earning his first own money) gave me a pair of Earset 3i. He knows exactly what daddy wants 🙂

Fully agree with your above review. They sound fantastic. Good demo track is Nils Lofgren´s "Keith don´t go", from his live album. Awesome accoustic guitar playing.

1x Beolab 5000 (2nd coming soon) and 3x Beomaster 5000.

The BL5000 (remove black paint) and BM5000 I had to clean...

 

Nothing as cool as a BL5000, but I was very pleased that when I put seven Energizer 357 watch batteries in my new Beomaster Control Module, it worked perfectly.

Why 7 instead of 1, Rich? I mean 1 original...

Well, actually that is rather brilliant!

The original is tough to find in the states, and expensive when you do!

I can get a (20) pack of these 357's on Amazon for $3.25USD!

Tip of the month -thanks Rich!
