First pictures of BV 10 (updated)

I think it is stunning – elegant, refined, minimal and discreet.

New Beogram 4000
in BeoGram · Aug 17, 2009 16:35 GMT

Just got delivery of a mint condition Beogram 4000 – wow, what a beauty. I am amazed at the build and quality of materials. I can't stop looking at the thing – a design classic! This is phase one of my vintage system (I …

Hi all First time I have posted on this area of the forum. I am about to buy a beautiful Beogram 4000 but as far as I know it needs a little attention (new bulb and arm takes a while to lower down). Who do I contact in L…

Guess where we have been!

Thanks for the advice. The cassette is not a problem as I will use it for vinyle only. As for CDs I have a BC2. Studpid question – can you run Beolab 3s with the Beomaster 4400? Does Martin have a website?

our BV8-32 installation
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 12, 2009 15:56 GMT

Looks great! I have virtually the same set-up (along with a BC2). BV8 – like marmite – loved or loathed. I love it – a unique B&O design.

I have a white bv8 – a 32" since it was released. No problems with it getting dirty whatsoever. How often do you handle it? Hardly ever. Wipes clean really easy also looks great against a white wall.

Airfoil, Spotify, Airport, and Beocenter 2
in General Discussion & Questions · May 3, 2009 08:46 GMT

Just found a great bit of software that allows you to broadcast to airport xpress via other programmes other than itunes. Using it with spotify at the moment and streaming it through my beocenter 2. Anyone else use it? H…

My wife has named our BL3s "death vases". I have subsequently requested in my will that my ashes are stored in the casing of my BL3s. :)

A vision in gold?

I'm sorry – I can't even bring myself to look at that. Was this concieved in some crazed focus group? – the guys in Struer have had a taste lobotomy!

Beosound 5 GUI / onscreen graphics
in Beo5 & Beo6 · Nov 12, 2008 15:23 GMT

I think the design of the Beosound is interesting – I am sure this will be reinforced by the way you use it. What REALLY disappoints me are the graphics. The typography and use of cover art seems at best weak. This is th…

BeoSound 5 price this can not be true?
in Beo5 & Beo6 · Nov 2, 2008 07:57 GMT

Since when have B&O been known for their programming prowess? Five years for this kind of software – that is a very slow turnaround. I hope it is good – I really want one but in this financial climate and at that price?

Help! Beocenter 2 meltdown

Hi all. Just reconnected my Beocenter 2 after putting it away in a cupboard whist my youngest had her 4th birthday party – did not want any unwanted B&O attention from little prying hands. On reconnection I noticed that …

Who orderd a BS 5?
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 23, 2008 02:55 GMT

4–5000 euros and you have not seen/used it – wow! the credit crunch is obviously not in Germany. That is a lot of B&O love 🙂');" title="Smile - 🙂">

New Strategy for B&O
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 15, 2008 10:52 GMT

In response to Trip's excellent post, I think B&O should adopt the new strategy of actually giving away it's products for free – although this could be problematic in the long term. I will be the first to sign up – A cou…
