Bang & Olufsen sees FY loss on weak pre-Xmas sales
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 2, 2009 16:11Frankly, this conversation has gone overboard and needs to be locked. Mods?
Bang & Olufsen sees FY loss on weak pre-Xmas sales
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 30, 2008 18:04I was merely appealing to a religious deity for action to be taken, as it is becoming more and more apparent that an appeal to certain posters is going unanswered. I'd hardly think that calling God "good," or for invokin…
Bang & Olufsen sees FY loss on weak pre-Xmas sales
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 30, 2008 17:47Good God, could you folks continue this argument over PM, or are you SO CONCERNED with convincing the rest of the internet world of each of your beliefs? It's obvious you both have passion for where your position lies, b…
Beomaster 7000 sound issues?
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 23, 2008 15:50Well, after being sidetracked with nearly everything (gotta love the holidays!), I finally got everything to work! After speaking with a wonderful guy at Beocare, he told me of a lovely trick to short the pins: using ben…
The B&O problem?
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 13, 2008 01:18Good Lord! Lovely to see a dealer--one who actually identifies his store in his signature--come in and admit the need for change while still professing his love for, and loyalty to, the brand. Stopped in your store a few…
The B&O problem?
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 11, 2008 20:32Why don't we all just agree that B&O is doing everything absolutely perfect, is 100% ahead of every other panel, technologically speaking, and on top of that, they represent the best possible value money can buy! ...beca…
Beomaster 7000 sound issues?
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 25, 2008 18:34Yeah, $400! I suppose the seller just didn't really know what they had... But sorry to harp on this, everyone, but I'm still confused. Is there a plastic bung I can just purchase or make? Or if the answer is what was des…
Beomaster 7000 sound issues?
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 24, 2008 03:30Thank you, Ulf, but I fear I'm a bit illiterate when it comes to technical terms. Is there not a plastic plug or some sort I can just buy to replace the shim? If that's not an option at all, can you (or somebody) please …
Beomaster 7000 sound issues?
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 20, 2008 02:17Ah, I just re-read your post, Peter. No, no plastic bung there, and none that it came with, I'm afraid! If it's not there, would that affect both the radio AND the cd sound (when I have my CD50 plugged in, I get the same…
Beomaster 7000 sound issues?
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 19, 2008 21:27Well, first the good news: today I picked up a beautiful pair of Beolab 8000s on Craigslist, and to my random surprise (and perhaps because of the seller's lack of knowledge about the brand) they came with two Beolink 10…

New Strategy for B&O
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 15, 2008 15:23As always, Trip, you got it right! Why can't anybody EVER accept that the dozens-to-hundreds of people complaining about B&O lagging behind in technology are all ABSOLUTELY wrong?! I don't think the CEO should change a s…
ZOMG!!! B&O are so far behind!!!
in General Discussion & Questions · Jul 23, 2008 21:39Trip, You mentioned Chicago and DK. You don't happen to run State St. in Chicago, do you? If so, I've purchased some things (albeit smaller ones!) from there and have probably met you. If not, then I haven't met you obvi…

Quadraphonic sound
in General Discussion & Questions · Jul 14, 2008 16:58This Beomaster 6000 just appeared on Ebay (USA), and has a while to go, but might be worth watching: Unfortunately, for some reason on my MacBook, the link option is unavailable, but here is the link for copy/pasting any…
Aux on Beosound 2000
in General Discussion & Questions · Jul 7, 2008 00:26Question for everyone: How/where do I get the 7 (or is it 9?) pin AUX cable for the Beosound 2000, with a normal headphone jack on the other end so that I can play my iPod on it? Is this something I just have to keep che…
