in eBay - the right way! · Feb 28, 2011 13:03Lee, FYI as you like this kind of stuff - the "big" Attyca. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Bang-and-olufsen-attyca-hifi-table-/180632728620?pt=UK_Home_Garden_LivingRoom_TV_Furniture&hash=item2a0e8cb42c#ht_500wt_1127 It looks like…
Bargain!
in eBay - the right way! · Feb 18, 2011 11:37Although I'd imagine the seller doesn't look at it quite that way. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230586062099&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_720wt_1094
Moral dilemna... BG
in eBay - the right way! · Feb 8, 2011 11:54Hi Jaff, I sympathise, particularly as I'm going through something similar myself (like you, for the first time - it had to happen sooner or later). However, I'd say the moral argument is that your won an auction and agr…

Forget the spare room...
in eBay - the right way! · Oct 21, 2010 13:25Clive, Funnily enough, when I saw this listing the same thought crossed my mind, and also why there were no remotes. Looking at all that kit from a "collector" one would have expected a few BL 1000's at the very least, b…
Forget the spare room...
in eBay - the right way! · Oct 20, 2010 12:54...this justifies building an extension. (If there's any money left after the divorce settlement.) http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Bang-Olufsen-36-item-lot-Modern-Vintage-Systems-NR-/220685322901?pt=Receivers_Tuners&hash=item3361d…
BeoLab 6000
in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 9, 2010 14:32Dimitris, That's good for splitting one channel, i.e. ONE signal to 2 no. left speakers or to 2 no right speakers, but if he's going from the headphone mini-jack stereo socket (2 channels) he effectively needs this: http…
BeoLab 6000
in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 9, 2010 12:32Hi Ben, In that case, using the cable you've posted the link to, you just need to extend the L & R male phono plugs using 2 no. female-male phono leads (3M, 5M etc.) , so you're extending each leg of the 'Y' to reach the…
BeoLab 6000
in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 9, 2010 11:45Hi, Believe me, they sound as good as they look! I've only connected to B&O kit, but you can definitely connect to non-B&O using the phono jack. Unless I'm mistaken (and there are far more experienced users of this forum…

in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 11, 2010 12:47Once again I have to call on your expertise - I thank you in advance. I purchased a Beolink Passive and, for once, read the manual. So, following the instructions therein I've: 1/. Connected the Beolink Passive to the Be…

A treasure trove!
in eBay - the right way! · May 19, 2010 10:07My thoughts exactly, Simon! In fact, you've touched on a very delicate subject, as our spare room is currently half-full of B&O cartons... Rob
A treasure trove!
in eBay - the right way! · May 19, 2010 03:57JOB LOT B&O It's worth it for the Beomaster 1200s and Beogram 1200s alone! Rob
BeoSound 3000 and passive speakers/Beogram with RIAA amp to Beocenter 9500/8500
in General Discussion & Questions · May 17, 2010 04:01Thanks Mika, however I won't be going down this path - as you say it's a silly chain of amps to put together with no discernible benefit. Better to just use an non-RIAA turntable. The reason why I bought the 4500 is prec…
BeoSound 3000 and passive speakers/Beogram with RIAA amp to Beocenter 9500/8500
in General Discussion & Questions · May 16, 2010 15:53Thank you for your answers. My main query was regarding the IR Eye, as in some references it almost sounded like it was required to configure the Beolink as it was designed for remote installation and not in the same roo…

in General Discussion & Questions · May 16, 2010 12:52Hi, I'm sure these questions have been asked many times, but I can't seem to find definitive answers. I have a BeoSound 3000 with BL (active) 6000 speakers and would like to add a couple of Beovox passive speakers to the…
