Best way to connect Beosystem 3 and Beocenter 2?
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 19, 2010 17:31Thanks Russ! Following your advice, I've connected the 2 via SCART and Digital COAX to one of BS3's AV ports, as well as the masterlink, and have both V.OPT and A.OPT = 1. Then I set the port up as DVD and it worked wond…
Best way to connect Beosystem 3 and Beocenter 2?
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 18, 2010 18:55Hi all B&O gurus, I'm still trying to figure out how to connect the Beocentre 2 to my new Beosystem 3. Both units are in the same room, and I like to watch DVDs on the BC2 through the BS3 so I can get 5.1 surround. I've …
Beosystem3 and PS3 via HDMI - "content is protected"?
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 18, 2010 06:32Hi Jean, thanks for the advice! I realised afterwards that my screen is not HDCP compliant! No wonder. Because I've tested it on a Dell monitor. Today I connected it to my Panasonic plasma and all worked fine! :) I've go…
Beosystem3 and PS3 via HDMI - "content is protected"?
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 17, 2010 04:55Hi all, I've just got a Beosystem3, thanks to one of our fantastic members Klas! Just spent the night setting up the speakers to it. It's amazing how much the BS3 can do with the speakers. However, I have one problem wit…

Beolab 2 - any regrets?
in General Discussion & Questions · Apr 23, 2010 02:30I had Beolab 8000 as fronts and Beolab 6000 as backs before, and a BL2 is almost a MUST! Just that now I've upgraded to BL9 and the BL9 have a strong woofer component so I've sold mine. Not only you get much stronger and…
BeoCenter 2 was fine until i moved it, somebody please help!
in General Discussion & Questions · Apr 1, 2010 01:57Wow that is bizzare!! Glad you have it sorted out Dave!! I wouldn't like my BC2 to be lightly-electrocuting me either!!
3D & B&O TV'S
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 16, 2010 18:58Honestly I don't know why they're trying to sell 3D TV as a new product. I have seen Avatar in Imax and I have to say without the glasses on, the picture is just an overlapped mess (as if you're really drunk) and the gla…
BeoLab 9 - where is the midrange, too much tweeter!
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 14, 2010 21:57Dave, sorry to hear that your beloved BL1's stolen and the insurance company didn't provide you with an exact replacement. Now I understand what you mean. Sorry I'm not good at what sound is in which category. Now that y…
BeoLab 9 - where is the midrange, too much tweeter!
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 14, 2010 19:29I agree with what Peter had said. I came from a pair of BL8000+BL2 to a BL9 setting. Sometimes, the vocal part IS a little bit overly pronounced, but that is what the acoustic lens do. It makes the vocals really stand ou…

A day with 103-inch BeoVision 4-103
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 10, 2010 21:53It is a very impressive TV! But $18,755 extra for the motorised floor stand?? So the stand cost the same as a car! At least one can be sure the TV's safe from a break-in to their house with it's 250kg weight. :D
Old BV7-40 Mk2 a good alternative for Beosystem3?
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 7, 2010 19:21Thanks Bv7Mk3 for clarifying the specs!! I could have guessed it's a bit of a wishful thinking on my part ;) Apologies for the silly question. Thanks again for your help!!
Old BV7-40 Mk2 a good alternative for Beosystem3?
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 7, 2010 17:44Hi all, I have a dilemma. At the moment, I've got a 5.1 set up using a very old pre-loved Beosystem1, driving a pair of 9s and 6000s and a 7-4. I'm thinking sometime going forward, I'm going to need to upgrade the Beosys…

IS B&O worth the money???
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 18, 2010 19:52[quote user="Stan"]I also believe the pace of change in TV technology will slow down and/or TV manufacturors will go out of business. [/quote] Stan that's a very good point. I also agree that when it comes to a point whe…
IS B&O worth the money???
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 17, 2010 18:11Well for luxury goods it never is rational. Although you pay 5x more for perhaps just 2x the quality, the utility (personal satisfaction/happiness) that it brings sometimes cannot be measured. You'll never get a suitable…

unusual setup: select 2 out of 3 Beolabs
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 8, 2010 18:07That's a big ask without Beosystem 3. I'll be interested to know too! If someone finds a way, we'll see sales of Beosystem 3 plummet :D
BeoLab 9 - do I need BL2?
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 3, 2010 00:16I'm in exactly the same scenario as you are mr anders son. I have just recently sold my 8000 and Lab2 combination, for Lab9. I've spent a couple of days before I sold the old speakers to see if there is any huge benefit …
