BM-link or Linkplayer + Beo4?
in Beo-Mac · Dec 10, 2011 00:10I use BM-Link running on Lion. It works fine. I tried Linkplayer awhile ago and it was overkill for what I wanted to do, which was just listen to iTunes music. If I want to change anything that I can't do with the Beo4 t…
Delay when activating Mac based music
in Beo-Mac · Dec 10, 2011 00:05Necrothread! Back from the dead to eat your brains! *cough* So I have an update. I upgraded the RAM in my mini (it's pretty old and had 1gb ram) to 3gb and upgraded the HD from 80gb to 320gb (so I could put my iTunes mus…
Delay when activating Mac based music
in Beo-Mac · Aug 1, 2011 23:46Oh wow. I don't have that problem. That doesn't sound good at all. If my drives are spinning then all of my connections are immediate or near immediate. My issue is waiting for the drives to spin up first thing in the mo…
Delay when activating Mac based music
in Beo-Mac · Aug 1, 2011 08:33Ahhhh we're both hearing the same thing. The delay I'm talking about is possibly 10 or 12 seconds.
Delay when activating Mac based music
in Beo-Mac · Aug 1, 2011 06:51I should add my chain is BS4, beoport, MacMini running Beolink. Even in a link room the reaction is immediate. It's just the initial startup that takes so long.
Delay when activating Mac based music
in Beo-Mac · Aug 1, 2011 06:49Nah, I don't think so because if you hit forward or back or stop and then go, the reaction is immediate. Also, if my hard drives are already spinning because of EyeTV or something, there's no delay.
Delay when activating Mac based music
in Beo-Mac · Aug 1, 2011 05:03I already know the answer which is "the hard drive has to spin up." The question, however, is: what do you do about it? Do you have the music on a drive that never spins down? On SSD? Just live with the spin up delay? Ne…
Voltage and moving and replacing power supplies
in General Discussion & Questions · May 15, 2011 06:51Hiya, I already moved once from Munich (I use to go to the guy near Marienplz, he was great) to Australia and there was no problem with the shipping. The only useful box I had was the one for the BL6000. Everything else …

Voltage and moving and replacing power supplies
in General Discussion & Questions · May 15, 2011 06:00Hiya, I may move from Australia to the US and was wondering if it's possible to replace the power supplies in my equipment or if it would be better to sell it all here and rebuy it over there? Anyone else ever had to dea…

The BeoSound 8 - Live Review!!!
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 18, 2010 21:39I saw the product on the B&O website and thought "that looks like ass." Then I saw Lee's posts and thought "actually that looks kind of cool. If only it did ML." Then I saw Steve's posts and thought "okay, it's getting c…

Relocating from Europe to US
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 7, 2010 18:58This is the single most intelligent, fantastic post I've ever seen on any forum. Ever. This is frikkin' brilliant. One question though, if you buy a bunch of sockets in the EU, are they up to US spec? As in, if your hous…
Cleaning steel
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 29, 2010 22:56What do you use to clean the metal shiny bits on your speakers? The stuff I'm using just clouds it up.
The 'Dark Side'.....
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 12, 2010 03:12In the living room connected to my BS4 is a Mac Mini which uses BM-Link to the Beoport to the BS4 and has video to my Samsung. I can choose the music with the Remote app for my iPad or any of the 3 iPhones laying around.…
BM-Link and iTunes 10 - do they work together?
in Beo-Mac · Sept 23, 2010 22:27Hiya, I haven't updated iTunes on my mini in a loooong time. Does iTunes 10 break BMlink? Or do they work happily like... uh... two things that work together?
No clock on Beolab 3500
in Beo-Mac · Sept 23, 2010 22:22Is it still a problem? I find it sometimes takes awhile. Like hours even.
Why are B&O doing a Beo6?
in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 23, 2010 22:18Why don't they just redo the Beo5 so that 1) it's a universal remote that works with all your B&O stuff and all your non-B&O stuff and 2) you can update it yourself? So basically a Logitech Harmony that doesn't look like…
