AV 9000 not talking to itself!
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 26, 2010 10:31Hello people! Well it's been a while hasn't it. Right, my AV9000 has recently moved house & I've a feeling it's become damaged in the move. I think (hope) that it's just the lead that connects the VCR to the TV which has…

Does vintage B&O sound better?
in General Discussion & Questions · May 5, 2009 19:09[quote user="Cleviebaby"] I can see how the Beogram 4001 would match the BM4401 visually, but taken as a single entity, it doesn't have the 'wow' factor of the standard aluminium finish. It does have real rarity value th…

DIY iPod dock
in General Discussion & Questions · May 4, 2009 14:10What ho, I'm having a thought about the iPod dock at my friend's house. It's a bit crap & everytime I am there I cringe at the sound. It so happens that I have some spare speakers atm (my old MC35s) & I'm thinking that i…
Does vintage B&O sound better?
in General Discussion & Questions · Apr 29, 2009 17:42[quote user="burantek"] in short, i would say yes, but... i think it is simply a different sound. IMHO... bm4400 + mc120.2 = WARMTH bs9000 + actives (discounting bl5 or 9) = CLINICAL i like both! [/quote] I'm agreeing wh…
