BeoLink comes to the iPhone
in General Discussion & Questions · Apr 16, 2010 23:43 GMT

Thanks Ehlerz. Is this 'box' a B&O piece of kit, like the BeoLink PC? Could you please provide more details. Mike

BeoLink comes to the iPhone
in General Discussion & Questions · Apr 16, 2010 16:28 GMT

Today B&O sent an email re the new BeoLink app for the iPhone (http://www.bang-olufsen.com/beolink-home-controller-iphone-app). I downloaded it, and was hoping for some for instant action, but the app started 'searching'…

Bring back the BeoLit 600
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 14, 2010 23:34 GMT

In Oz we're heading into regular DAB+ broadcasting. Many companies like Sagem, Philips and Bush are again putting out portables for the home. I'd like to suggest to B&O that they consider rebuilding the BeoLit 600 with d…

Beosystem 3 - cannot connect PC through HDMI
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 4, 2009 07:47 GMT

Hi batfab, There'll probably be some trial and error to come, but my first move would be to test the HDMI output from the computer with a standard TV monitor before trying it through the BS3. If the computer drives the T…

do i lose something if i change bl8000 to bl3 + my system and home photo
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 26, 2009 14:33 GMT

You won't lose anything in sound, according to the book. BL8000s don't use icepower and have a frequency range of around 52 to 20K Hz. The BL3's are similar with 50 to 20K, so no issues, and they save power. Aestheticall…

Mani, it does. There's probably opportunity to switch from fixed to variable output via the set-up menus in your TV.

Connecting BeoLab 8000
in North America · Mar 14, 2008 15:41 GMT

Hi Mani, You obviously have a very recent TV, so the pre-amp issue will be a dead one. Just plug the audio outs (one L and one R) into your BL 8000s (checking L as left when watching in front of the screen). You'll love …

Beomaster 7000
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 29, 2008 22:23 GMT

Johnny, any 4 to 6 ohm speaker pair (without amps) rated at about 80 to 120 watts RMS should be fine for your needs. Connect them to the 7000 with good figure-eight wire, your B&O seller will be able to point out where t…

Apple Tv vs Beoport
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 29, 2008 22:04 GMT

Hi Woodman TA, I'm guessing from your shorthand that you only have one HDMI/DVI input on your system? If that's the case, to add an Apple TV and use the HDMI, you'll need an HDMI wireless switching box, say with four inp…

BeoLiving + Catalogue
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 26, 2008 14:16 GMT

Thanks for the info Damatt. It's a shame B&O don't offer a downloadable PDF---the wait for each page load makes the catalogue more of a 'show' than it need be. But perhaps that's the idea ...

Mikael, if you need a manual for the MCL2, look under "Music Systems / BeoLink Products/ Master Control Link 2" in the Service Manuals section. As a gold member you will be able to access the manuals at http://www.beowor…

Connecting a HDMI input and assigning to V.MEM
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 19, 2008 18:41 GMT

Moxxey, your dealer may have a preferred 'set' of 'what goes where'. He may habitually use V.MEM for a VCR, for example. He probably sees the Sky box as an auxiliary item. It's up to you where you place things (isn't B&O…

Which is the best panel to buy for a BS3?
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 19, 2008 18:36 GMT

Guys, I'm looking to upgrade the Sharp AQUOS I have hanging off a BS3, because it isn't HDCP-compliant (only sports a DVI connection). I'd love a BV9, but they are the price of a new family car. I'd like to buy a 50 or 5…

BS3+HDMI - help needed
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 19, 2008 18:26 GMT

This is great info guys. I've just found the problem after upgrading the software on BS3. Looks like I'll need an HDMI-compliant monitor; my Full-HD Sharp AQUOS panel (of three years) only supports a DVI connection! But …

Connecting a HDMI input and assigning to V.MEM
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 19, 2008 16:40 GMT

You can assign the V.MEM by calling up the Menu, Options, Connections and then the AV you have V.AUX set to. Press the right button to change the V.AUX to V.MEM. Just make sure you can still select your Set Top Box (STB)…

Connecting an Airport Express to BV7-40 MKIII
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 19, 2008 16:36 GMT

Moxxey, It's easy to convert 3.5mm Optical to Toslink, but what you may need is to convert optical to SPDIF coaxial. There's a box on eBay for $79 that does this. You may find others.

Teufel-Subwoofer an BV7-32 anschliessen
in Deutsche · Jan 19, 2008 16:28 GMT

Cornelius, Don't know if this is of help as I don't speak German (wonderful Babelfish...) The five-pin DIN may use these connections (based on the 7-pin DIN Datalink connections): Pin 1: Yellow - Left OUT Pin 2 (top cent…

Beovox CX-100 to Beosystem 5500
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 16, 2008 00:28 GMT

Aaron, Obviously this isn't something simple to fix. It sounds like a feedback loop; ie the tapehead may be picking up the loud speaker sound and feeding it back into the system via the tapehead, thus increasing the volu…

Beovox CX-100 to Beosystem 5500
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 14, 2008 23:57 GMT

Aaron, The pic isn't very clear, but the cord on the right is correct for the speaker (plugs into the speaker's male point). I imagine the one on the left is also OK (it looks like it might be the same in an unfocussed k…

Just got an iMac, what next???
in Beo-Mac · Jan 14, 2008 23:24 GMT

Good to see you're becoming a Mac fan Christian. As you've already bought your iMac, Peter's comment is a most sound one. You use the iPod Touch to remotely control your iMac which should be plugged into a Masterlink sys…
