Can u give me comment about Beosound4?
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 27, 2012 23:51I was never really sold on the SD card. It must have a following elsewhere in the world. If you're going to splurge at some point I'd sit tight for a BeoSound 5. Better to get something that can play all of your digital …
Beovision 10-46 in 3D in 2012 ?
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 25, 2012 16:20A. I know of no plans to adapt the BeoVision 10 to 3D B. 3D remains a non-starter across the TV industry. Consumer demand drove the painful conversion to 16x9 HD, there is no demand to do the same for 3D C. There is comp…
B&O pricing policy
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 24, 2012 19:40Really can't add much to Martinw's well considered post. Discounting is not part of the Bang & Olufsen experience and customer demands are inelastic no matter how much they might save.
TheBeoVision 12 is in the stores.
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 23, 2012 18:05It's up and running. Image is incredible, as expected. The center channel speaker is better that I expected. Extremely powerful.

The Audiophile & B&O
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 23, 2012 14:22To round out that story a little, my guy got a counter top place to water jet them to the exact circular dimension of the base, so when you look at them you really wouldn't know there was anything different unless you're…
The Audiophile & B&O
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 23, 2012 09:01I'm not an audiophile, but have had at least a dozen real audiophile clients over the years. Most of them would change power cords, add line conditioners, mess with interconnects, etc. The only thing I've ever been shown…
Extending masterlink via cat 6
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 23, 2012 08:57Sorry, this will not work. You will need Cat7 to complete the run with the appropriate adaptors. You need the braided shield that isn't present in Cat6.
BS5 supports Apple Lossless
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 13, 2012 16:34The BeoSound 5 communicates to the user that there's been an update and explains in detail what new features have been added and which features may have changed. E-mailing clients is absolutely unrealistic. In my store a…
BS5 supports Apple Lossless
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 12, 2012 13:04I expected it, but I hadn't heard any advance warning that it was about to drop. My next question is naturally - Why can you now rip in WMA & MP3-320, but NOT ALAC? Seems like that would have been a natural choice. I'm s…
BS5 supports Apple Lossless
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 12, 2012 10:56I think it would be funny if they reduced the gaps without eliminating them.

in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 12, 2012 02:49It's not even close to the BeoSound 8. A close friend bought it and I've spent many nights listening to it. It's a huge disappointment because it doesn't really live up to the B&W reputation which, I feel, is very good. …
Beosound 5 Encore easy masterlink...
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 6, 2012 07:52[quote user="raveny"] what happens when the Encore and a video source output simultaneously? [/quote] Total protonic reversal.
Beosound 5 Encore is here...
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 2, 2012 12:06When I first saw the BeoSound 5 Encore as an operational unit I asked that question to one of the engineers and he said that they eye can track it more easily when it's only focused on a single point and not constantly m…
Beosound 5 Encore easy masterlink...
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 2, 2012 12:01Mbee, you're confusing your ports. The BeoSound 2300 works using the Datalink socket (which looks very much like a powerlink socket) for MCL transmission. It's the precursor to the BeoLink. It's the exact opposite. As st…
Beovision 12 now on Bang&Olufsen.com
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 1, 2012 15:26The BeoLab 12s have grown on me. My intial reaction was that there was way too much reflective surface. But I like the design. Like a lot of low-profile technology it's hard to capture the looks in a photo. I'm hopeing t…
Beovision 12 now on Bang&Olufsen.com
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 1, 2012 15:12[quote user="Hardwriter"] I'm afraid this does nothing for me and I question a strategy that follows the 'TV on the wall' direction. Surely the people B&O target live in homes with space. Do they really want their TV on …
BeoLit 12 is in the shops! Initial impressions?
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 28, 2012 16:11I think that might be the big winner. The dark grey model has sold well, but with the other color combinations listed on the boxes, many clients have indicated that they'd like to wait for another color, especially the b…
Struer Museum
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 24, 2012 13:08Luckily, Struer is a slightly smaller metropolis than New York or London so finding it shouldn't be difficult! And yes, it's absolutely worth the trip. I can honestly say that I look forward to it as much as any other pa…
